The rules... everyone's gotta have em... |
|
Hey guys, thanks for checking out the board... In order to keep the peace around here, we've gotta have a set of ground rules... I took a lot of these from www.tennspeed.net cause I'm a member there, and they seem to be able to keep the peace...
1. Excessive Bashing and/or Flaming: We're all adults here (hopefully) so we don't have to lay into each other to the point of pissing people off. We all have a difference in opinions, and that's cool... Just keep it civil, cause it's just more fun that way. If you keep doing it, you're gone, and I can block your IP so you'd be screwed...
2. Spam: If you would like to advertise another site, we have no problems with you placing links in your signature. Also, you are free to discuss sites, products, etc. as well, but excessive posting and repetative comments will not be tolerated. If you are not sure about something, contact a moderator for approval before posting.
Spam- n.
Unsolicited e-mail, often of a commercial nature, sent indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or newsgroups; junk e-mail.
tr.v., spammed, spam•ming, spams.
1. To send unsolicited e-mail to.
2. To send (a message) indiscriminately to multiple mailing lists, individuals, or newsgroups.
3.) Street Racing: It's ILLEGAL. You can get your car impounded and crushed, or worse, sold, if you get caught. We don't condone it on the forums, if you gotta run em, take em to the track. Just like if you post a video of yourself being stupid and sliding on some corners, cops will see them, and you will get pulled over. Just be smart about it, ok?
4.) Work Safe Content: Please make sure anything you post is appropriate for people of all ages. Anything that is not appropriate must be posted within a topic that includes [NWS] in the title. Extremely tasteless content and/or pornography will be removed.
5.) Misinformation: If you don't know it to be a fact, be careful saying it as such... but don't be afraid to ask questions. We have a section set aside just for that
6.) Discrimination: We will not tolerate racism, sexual discrimination, or any other form of discrimination on this site.
7.) Pointless Posts: Please make sure to avoid all irrelevant discussion within a topic. The following are examples of pointless posting:
---Posts which contain no relevant contribution to the thread, topic, or site.
---Posting responses to a thread for the sole purpose of boosting post count.
---Posting derogatory and/or 1-word answers to a topic.
---Posts/Threads that are meaningless and lack the ability to elicit thought-provocative responses.
---Posting a short/simple response which shows you replied to the title and not the topic..
The only place this rule does not apply would be in the off-topic section, but please try not to be too excessive about it there if the post has a specific topic requesting specific answers. Use your best judgement, please.
CONSEQUENCES: If the offense is not extreme, you will receive a warning. The thread may be locked and the post may be deleted. If the problem becomes habitual, you may lose privileges on the forum (avatars, posting, messages, etc.) and/or receive further disciplinary action. If the problem is severe your account may be banned. In extreme cases, IP bans will be given, as well.
So let's have fun, keep it safe and off the streets, and let's go!
