Title: Posting Guidelines


MainEvent - February 5, 2005 07:46 AM (GMT)
Hello TVT members here are some rules you might want to follow when posting. Pls make sure you follow these simple rules, specially the ones in bold red texts.

I. Rules and Guidelines

1. Minimize off-topic posting, keep it to as little as 1 off topic reply. Off topic replies will either be moved or deleted. If you need to reply to your own post, use the edit button.

2. When posting messages do not target the group or group members with explicit words. Violators will be banned and removed. Posts will be deleted. No warnings will be issued.

3. Avoid message spamming

Spam:
- Making several threads about the same topic in one or different forums.
- Replying several times to yourself in one topic.
- Making pointless, irrelevant, or off-topic replies or posts.
- Posting things that should be dealt with via PM
- Making topics in inappropriate forums intentionally.
- Abusing the report button (reporting non-issues frequently)

4 Avoid using many emoticons when posting as it adds to confusion of the readers and it deterirates the look of the forums page. A single emoticon has the same effect as using many.

5 Standardize text size and colors use only text colors when highlighting something and chenge text sizes to large when you want to identify some words as a "title", to see an example click here

II. Etiquette

Please do not ask to be promoted to ANY staff position on this board. If we find that we need more staff, we will be on the look out and will promote those members that we find suitable for the position.

No excessive use of profanity.

No racial, ethnic, gender insults or any other discriminations.

No offensive or harmful posts/PMs.


Warez, cracks and any other illegal activities are NOT allowed.

Pornography is only allowed in the R-18 Corner, take note though that Pedopilia is not allowed, violators will suffer the consequences

All posts are property of the poster and are the poster's responsibility.

Complaints about a staff member should be sent by PM to an Admin.
