Rules

[Samson1138]

Please remember that when you post, you need to abide by the laws of your country and the laws of the USA.

Q: Can I post ads on here?
A: No. Please don't post commercial ads.

Q: Can I bump?
A: Yes, you may if you want to, but excessive bumping will not be okay. Also, use common sense. Why bump a topic that is near the top? Why bump a popular topic?

Q: Can I post anything illegal or pornographic?
A: NO. Any nasty or illegal stuff could result in a ban or long suspension. This includes illegal peer-to-peer sites, etc.

Q: Can I swear?
A: It depends upon the word, how it is used and how frequently you swear. Excessive swearing WILL result in warns and/or suspensions. But if used sparingly, some light swearing is allowed to help exemplify the argument.

Q: Can I sign up for multiple accounts?
A: NO. You are allowed one account to use and post with. If other accounts are found to be opened by you , they will be closed.

Q: Can I talk about sex a lot?
A: NO. This will not be tolerated and will result in an immediate warn.

Q: Can I post racist or sexist comments or topics?
A: NO. Racist posts or comments will be edited out and followed with a warning.

Q: Can I post in a topic which has been dead for a while?
A: The answer is yes and no. If you excessively "necromance", as it is called, you will be warned, and all of the topics will be closed. However, if you occasionally necromance, and post something which adds actual value (a good rule of thumb is adding at least 50-100 words), it will be allowed. As always, if a staff member tells you to stop, you stop.

Q: A staff member has asked me to stop doing something, but it isn't against the rules!
A: If a staff member tells you to stop, you stop! The FAQ and Posting Guidelines cannot cover everything. Thus, please listen to a staff member if he/she tells you to stop.

Q: Can I mindlessly bash Christianity or other religions?
A: No. Any disrespect towards any religious group or person will not be tolerated.

Q: Can I have large, flashy, colorful signatures?
A: No. Large signatures are distracting and often take attention away from the actual topic. Images can be large and take a long time to load, which detracts from the forum itself.

Q: Does everything I say have to come from a strictly Christian point of view?
A: While most of us are Christians, we welcome people with any beliefs and would like to hear from you too. Don't be afraid to express your opinion, no matter what it is, so long as you are respectful.

Any violation of these rules will result in a warning. Additional warnings will increase your warn level. Remember, the admins and/or moderators determine whether something is a violation of the rules or not.

Anything else? Please post the question and it will be added to the FAQ.
