Forum Rules and Guidelines (Updated 01/17/2011 9:02 PM CST)

[Rob]

This community is a place to hang out and have great discussions. We also encourage questions, answers, and support here. However, there are a few things that you must remember while participating and being a part of this community.


General Conduct

   
• Be Helpful- If someone needs help with something and you can help them, please do so. Suggesting that they "use the search button" and not providing any other help is NOT acceptable. Sometimes the search function doesn't find exactly what someone is looking for and therefore they have a legitimate need to create a new thread. Please either answer their question(s) or at least help them find the thread that answers their questions.
• Use the Search button first- If you have a question, please use the search button first as an answer may already exist. HOWEVER, if you have used the Search button and have not found your answer, please post your question. We as a community are here to help.
• Be respectful- This is a must and I feel that if I need to say more about it to you, then you probably aren't going to be around for very long.
• Contribute- Please contribute to this community. What you have to say is very important to us and we want you to say it.

What not to do

   
• Racism will NOT be tolerated in this community! If you really feel the need to make any racial (or otherwise derogatory) comments, please prepare to be banned permanently from this community. This is a ZERO TOLERANCE policy and there are no second chances!
• Foul language is a thin line here. If you are making a general statement and feel the need to insert foul language, it may be acceptable. The forum staff reserve all rights to edit your post if it has been deemed to be unacceptable and/or others are complaining about it. There are a few words that are absolutely not acceptable. These words are within the categories of racism, sexism, sexual profiling, etc. If you post a word from this category, please expect for it to be replaced with "Not Appropriate". If you somehow are able to wiggle past the censors in any way, please expect to take a short (or long, depending on the severity of the word(s) used) vacation from this community. Warnings will typically be given before harsher actions, but the forum staff reserve all rights to temporarily and/or permanently ban any user, at any time, for any reason.
• Flaming, personal attacks, and anything of the sort will be grounds for vacation time. Please refrain from attacking others in a personal manner. We here love debates, but once you bring personal issues into it, the forum staff will take action.

Finally

   
• Please have fun. This community is meant for everyone to get together to have great discussions and to enjoy themselves.
