Welcome!

We are here to have fun but as part of a growing Community there will be a few elemental rules to follow for peace and order to continue.

The list is not long, but what is stated must be complied to and remembered by heart as they deal with simple and mature aspects of everyday life too. The rules stated below emphasize on the importance in this particular section:



Rule 1: No personal attacks.
No harrassment or free attacks just for the sake of it against any public figure or any user of the EWAC. If you cannot be nice and polite in your views regarding a particular artiste, do not attempt to say anything at all! It might be near impossible for you not to bite back, but through experience, you would stand nothing to gain. Contact any moderator if harassment PMs are sent to you. We would either warn or ban the users involved immediately if any arguments get out of hand.


Rule 2: No spamming.
Please refrain from posting anything not related to the topic. The moderators would delete such posts at their own discretion.


Rule 3: No abuse.
No extreme profanity and religious, racial, ethnic, sexual-orientation and gender based discrimination are allowed. No exceptions will be made. Moderators would either warn or ban the user (more probable) if this happens.


Rule 4: No netspeak or constant use of caps.
It is very hard for people to read threads PoStEd lIkE tHiS, not to mention annoying. So please don't do it! and if you want to greet someone. greet him and don't gr33t him. Use capital letters and punctuations where required instead of droning on and on. We all know basic english, let's stick to that.


Rule 5: No pictures allowed.
There is limited bandwidth on this forum and we would appreciate it if you would just post links to the threads in the "Pictures" or an external link. Please don't hotlink. Look for a free image storage host instead.


Rule 6: Refrain from immature posts.
We want this place to stay free from immature babblings and an example would be "XX's girlfriend should die!". It is childish and infructuose as the celebrity would probably not read this and be in any way affected, despite your beliefs. It would also lead to unnecessary babbles and create chaos. In short, we do not tolerate it.



NEW!!!
Rule 7: Give a little background of the celebrity you are opening a thread about.

Do not simply open a thread saying that XY is hot, it is very poor and won't ever attract other members to post their comments on the matter. Explain, instead, who he is, what movies he's been in, some details that can introduce the person to the others and strike their attention.



It is not difficult to stick to these rules and everyone would be happy if you do so. Have fun!
