No cussing out members.

#4: Common decency will be practiced here. Porn, racial slurs, hate propaganda, and such, will not be tolerated.

Excessive and/or vulgar profanity is not. Curse words may be modified at the discretion of the moderators.
#5: It is the opinions of the moderators here that for the good of this community, bad blood from separations/break-ups from past forums will not be discussed on these forums.
#6: (a) Please try to start your topics in the appropriate forums. It is understood that sometimes topics will mistakenly be started in the wrong forum, or that it may be difficult sometimes to decide which forum best fits certain topics. Please do not be offended if a post you make gets moved. The moderators are only trying to keep things in order using their best judgement, and are not in any way reprimanding anyone.
(b) Intentionally starting topics in the wrong forum to get exposure for that topic is frowned upon. There are some exceptions that will be decided at the discretion of the moderators. We like to encourage users to use the other parts of the forum.
(c) Going off-topic during a discussion on a thread happens at times and this generally is acceptable. However, getting off of a particular forum's theme during a discussion on a thread may result in that topic being moved to the appropriate forum, or closed for further discussion. This will be done at the moderator's discretion.
(d) Continually taking threads off-topic may result in the topic being closed and the possibility of those involved being banned. This will be done at the moderator's discretion. Please do not hijack threads.
Violations of the above guidelines will result in your post being edited or deleted. Continuous violations may result in you being banned from this community.
Individuals can be banned solely at the discretion of the moderators of this community, without warning![<img src=]()
