The FreedomsNet Forum Rules/Regulations (and we try to put up as few as possible)
V. 2.1 compiled by The_Nightshift and Voteccow
1. All decisions made by Moderators (Moderators, Super Moderators, and Staff) and Administrators (Site Administrators and Owners) are final and shall not be debated upon
2. No Graphic Material of either a macabre or pornographic nature. Racism and/or sick jokes is not permitted. Any posts about or links to such content will not be tolerated.
3. No Warez (links) & Cracks help, requests that discuss circumvention of usage restrictions on software or illegal distribution of it. This includes linking to software, posting it, and suggesting to or how to obtain it.
4. Please Try to Avoid Swear/Curse Words We encourage you to use our Communities as a forum to debate topics, but please use proper adjectives to express yourself. We do not tolerate circumvention of our word filter or abuse upon another member. Additionally do not use language of a sexually explicit nature anywhere on the forums.
5. No Racism, No Threatening, No (citing) Victimization or Hateful Posts / Retaliation of any kind against a member, or group of members.
6. No Flaming Personal attacks such as flaming, instigating "flame bait", verbal abuse or mocking of members in chat are not tolerated here. Users doing so will have administrative action taken against them. If you are a long standing member, act like one. Lead by example and assist other newer members rather then attacking them. We look upon our veteran members to use this opportunity to teach the newer members the appropriate way to use these forums.
7. No spamming Spam can refer to several things, none of which are allowed here (with the possible exception of the food product)
a. advertising outside sites irrelivent to the topic at hand with ad offers/repeated links/etc.
b. posting consecutively on the same topic (i.e. multiple posts in a row with no other user responce). Just use the edit button if you need to add more information to a post
c. double posting (i.e. posting the same thing more than once. NOTE: if you encounter a board error and unintentionally double post as a result please send the error message via PM to an admin ASAP, in which case any double-posting penalties will be waived)
8. No Use of Other's Personal Information Though a user may chose to reveal any personal information about his or herself on this forum they are not permitted to display the identities of other users of the forum without the permission of that user. Items counted as personal information include: first names, last names, address, location, e-mail address, etc.
9. We reserve the right to amend/alter these rules at any time, and to enforce any changes as we, the administration, deem necessary
