The following General Rules apply to ALL aspects of the forum. This includes forum threads, posts, links, user profiles, avatars, private messages, reputation comments, signatures, etc.

1. General Rules

This is an English language board, We encourage each and everyone to try your best to post in English so please don't make posts in other languages. Excessive abbreviations is particularly unwelcome and posts related will be removed.

Abusive, racist, sexist or derogatory remarks towards other users will not be tolerated. Offensive, obscene or illegal posts or links is also not allowed. spamming is not permitted. Please keep all your posts/threads on topic or as constructive as possible.

Help other people if you expect them to help you. Build a reputation and be a leader. Don't forget to thank someone if he gave you a hand.

Give new users some slack, don't chastise them for not reading this guideline first. Make them feel welcome into the community. Remember, everyone was a beginner at one time! We don't want people to feel intimidated.

Be Civil, No personal attacks. If you have a disagreement with someone's point of view, Address the subject, not the person. If you feel the need to flame someone, Please do it in private message/PM. Do not feel compelled to defend your honor in public.

Please think about the comments you make and how it might affect other people. If it's not worth saying, then don't say it. Sensitivity is human nature, but aggression doesn't have to be.
