General Board-wide

#FileSpace is aimed at a general audience. This means our site is designed for 13 year olds and older. Everything must be aimed at this age and older. Explicit, vulgar language, drug talk, nudity, porn and so forth is not allowed.

#Do not mini-mod. We would like to encourage and thank members to use the report button but not add their own criticism.

#All publicly displayed messages are only limited to English. This includes posts, titles, signatures, profiles and other forms of public display.



Warning System


#Members who disobey the rules will be warned or banned depending on what the moderator believes is the appropriate punishment.

#Members can be warned a maximum of three times. On the third, the member will be immediately banned. This does not mean that you have to have a warning to get banned, moderators may ban you without warnings depending on the offense.


If you believe you do not deserve the warn please contact the moderator who warned you. Talking back to the moderator who gave you the warning with no sense of respect will lead to further warnings.

If you do not know why you received a warning, an email and private message would have been sent to notify you of the reason why you were warned and who warned you.



Posting Etiquette (manners)


#All topics must contain a description.

#Treat others positively and with respect. Flaming other members or other forums will lead to a warning, possibly even a ban.

#Topics must be submitted to the relevant forums. Please read the forum descriptions before posting.

#Topic titles must be descriptive.

Example:


A good example is "Help needed with game".

A bad example is "HEEEEELP!".

#Double posting of the same links may lead to a warning, especially if you have your own independent topic for a set of links and yet still post the same links in related topics with the intention of gaining exposure.

#Also use the edit button when altering your reply if you're the last to post in the topic.


Content of posts should not be explicit, offensive, shocking, discussions of demerit commodities unless it is posted in an educational sense.

Example:


Mainly for movies: Mainstream horror, gore and bloody movies are allowed. Videos such as bum fights, real death scenes, cruelty to animals, or anything which is indecent/sick is not allowed.

Disallowed: Hacking, fraud, drug related, porn and political/religious discussions even if educational.

#All links must be coded - including, but not limited to, e-mail addresses, passwords and internal links (eg
Code:
 
Link placed inside here
).

#No topic hijacking (going off topic).


Removal of moderated messages is not allowed.

#Posting serial numbers or license keys in messages is not allowed.

#The use of unusual presentation methods within topic titles and descriptions with the intent to gain attention is not allowed.

Examples and exceptions:


Not allowed:
Words/phrases such as but not limited to:
**** MUST HAVE****, L@@K, LATEST, NEWEST, LOOK HERE, *Newest Version*
or other words along these lines including symbols.

Allowed:
Scene release title created by the release group may include caps and periods.
Use of hyphen between words such as music titles.

#Posting mirror links in a topic is not allowed. Members who wish to share are required to start their own topic, with the appropriate information as required for any other share.

#Excessively replying to your own topics to gain first page exposure is not allowed.

Replies such as:

'You're welcome', 'no problem', 'thanks for replies' or similar

are only allowed a maximum of twice per page. This rule only applies to posts made on or after April 16th 2008.

#Members are allowed to make a huge topic with an index on first thread only if all the download links are posted in the same thread as posts/replies.

#Members are allowed to double or triple post only if their previous post has exceeded the maximum characters limit.


Spam Rules

#You may only promote your website once

Passwords that advertise other sites are allowed provided that they are required. If the passwords are not required the poster will be punished as a spamming member.

#Excessive posting of similar messages to increase post count is not allowed.

#You may not have links advertising other websites within your signature.
