Okay, folks, if you want to play in our sandbox, you're going to have to follow the rules and regulations. Ignorance of these is no excuse for violation. These rules and regulations are subject to change as the admin staff sees fit, and all members will be notified if they change. You agree to abide by them all when you sign up to use the board.
1. Hateful language, including but not limited to racist, sexist, homophobic, and/or bigoted speech is prohibited. Flaming (personal insults and attacks) is also prohibited, and will result in a ban from the forums without warning. This includes name-calling or insults about a person's religion, sex, sexual orientation, race, age, nationality, physical impairment, etc. Don't even say things like this as a "joke"; they aren't "jokes" and won't be treated as such.
2. Posts containing obscene or pornographic material will be deleted, and the person posting them will be banned without warning. Moderators may edit or delete any post deemed unsuitable.
3. At Trews Fans we recognize that the band's private lives is just that - private - and as such are not interested in rumours or gossip about them. Unless band members themselves have stated it publicly, we don't care. Please refrain from posting anything that they have not announced in a public forum with regards to their personal lives, or your post will be deleted without warning.
4. Respect the privacy of others. Do not post personal information (i.e. personal photographs, addresses, phone numbers, passwords, or any other private information) without permission.
5. Spamming is not permitted. Posts that are seen as spam will be deleted and the spammer will be banned automatically.
We consider spam to be:
- advertisements (including ads for items on sale on eBay)
- multi-posting the same word or link in a thread, without contributing anything else to it
6. Posts regarding illegal activities will not be tolerated. This includes bootlegging copyrighted material (ie. selling copies of official recordings), promoting illegal drug use, fraud, and other illegal activities. This also includes scalping tickets to a show at a premium in order to make a profit.
7. Do not register multiple accounts. If a member is found to be using multiple accounts for inappropriate reasons (to avoid disciplinary action for example), moderators may take steps to disable the secondary account(s).
8. Do not link directly to images hosted on sites other than your own, i.e., no hotlinking. There are many photo hosting sites on the web, please research them..
Violation of the above guidelines can lead to warnings, temporary or permanent banning from the forum at the sole discretion of the admin staff.
