Site Rules

Site Rules
Here are some nice and easy to follow rules that need to be followed on this forum. 1. No SPAM (stupid pointless annoying messages): Many forums practically die because of this problem. Make sure to have a reason to post and that the message belongs where you post it. 2. Double Posting: Try not to do it. There is a little edit button there so you can edit your posts. If you forgot to add something, edit your last post before you post again. You may only double post if at least 24 hours have elapsed since your last post. In addition, your new post should be reasonably long and contain useful information. Double posting more than once or twice a week is strongly discouraged. 3. Language: Keep language nice and friendly. No use of profanity is allowed. 4. Mods and Admins: Don't ask to be one. If I see you are admin or mod material, I will PM you. Also, please respect mods and admins on the forums. Things like, no arguing if I correct you. 5. Specific Forum Rules: Some forums may have their own specific rules. Please read them before posting there. 6. DON'T STEAL: If it's not yours, don't take it as your own. Simple as that. 7. Number of accounts: You are only allowed 1 account (username) on here. If you accidentally create more than one account, all but 1 of them will be deleted. We will ask you which one you want to keep. If you happen to have multiple people using the same computer just let us know if we ask you about it. 8. Advertising: Please don't advertise other websites here in forum posts. That's not what this board is for. You may advertise websites in your signature and/or avatar if you like. 9. Age: ZetaBoards is subject to the laws of Maryland, and Maryland law prohibits forums from storing personal information about anyone less than 13 years of age (to protect their privacy). I am pleased to announce that those younger than 13 may now join the site, but those members should enter their valid birthdate during registration so that the system knows to avoid storing personal information about them. If you post any personal information on here, I will be forced to remove it from your post. Once you reach 13 years of age, these restrictions will, of course, be lifted. 10. Name Changes: You are allowed to request one name change every six months. Do so by going to your preferences page and by clicking "Change Username". Your name change request will be sent to an admin and will be reviewed (and hopefully approved). Do NOT submit additional name change requests within the 6 month period following your last approved username change request. That should be it for now. Thanks, I appreciate you reading and following the site rules! Updated: 08/29/2008 10:30 PM (Eastern Time)
