We'd rather not moderate, but off-topic, blatantly inflammatory, or otherwise inappropriate comments may be removed. Repeat offenders will be banned from commenting. Let's add value to the forum. Thank you.

1. Absolutely no spamming, flaming, or self-promotion - of your site or products - is allowed.
   • If any of your posts in the forums contains anything like this they will be deleted and you will be given a warning or banned.
   • If you are recommending a site or product, make it clear if you are associated with the company involved or if there is any conflict of interest.
2. Please do not put the same post in multiple forums.
   • Choose the forum most relevant to your topic.
3. Do not put the same post in multiple threads.
   • Putting the same post in multiple topics means forum users have to re-read a lot of redundant information unnecessarily.
4. Try to use an appropriate and descriptive title when posting a new topic.
   This helps others to find your topic and decide which topics are relevant to them.
5. Don't post excessively large graphics.
   • Please avoid using big graphics that break up the flow of a page and excessively animated graphics.
   • Use a maximum of one graphic per signature.
6. Use a maximum of two links per signature only.
   • Only useful links are allowed, i.e. no under-construction sites, spam services etc.
   • No signature links to Warez, porn, hate sites, or other questionable content.
   • Absolutely no affiliate links in signature.
7. Please use a sensible username.
• All usernames must start with a letter or number.
• Usernames must not contain domain names or resemble email addresses.
• Avoid using a variation of an existing username, e.g. registering 'Thin Lizzy 1' when 'Thin Lizzy' is already an existing username.
8. Please keep one word replies to an absolute minimum.
   Being as clear as possible helps to avoid confusion and saves you from having to write clarifying responses.
9. All members should post in a way that is consistent with normal writing.
   • Excessive numbers of emoticons, or unnecessarily large, small or colored text should not be used.
   • SHOUTING (typing in capitals) or use of excessive punctuation in topic titles or posts is not allowed.
   • 'Chat-speak' is not allowed (e.g. 'i wan dat, plz fone me'). Users consistently abusing this will be officially warned.
10. Please do not flood the board with posts just to build up a post count.
    Give others a chance to get a word in. Don't make other new members feel left out, instead make them feel welcome.
11. In the interest of all members do not discuss politics or religion.
    There are plenty of other forums where you can do this and it can lead to offence.
