Jesus told us to treat others the way we'd like to be treated.
In general, this is a perfect understanding to have as you use this site. We want everyone to get the most out of this community, so we ask that you please read and follow these guidelines:
Respect each other
Keep posts relevant to the forum topic
No spamming
Because we know some of us like more details, the additional and specific forum rules are as follows:
We expect members should observe both the letter and the spirit of these rules. Users are also responsible for following forum-specific rules posted at the tops of individual sub-forums.
Each member is responsible for only his or her own posts. If another member breaks rules, you may ignore them or report the problem to the moderators, but you ma
y not use it as an excuse to break rules yourself.
Volunteer moderators help us manage the forums and enforce the forum rules. The moderators cannot read every message, so they rely on members to report problem posts that they encounter. The point of moderation is not to limit discussion, promote or suppress points of view, or any other agenda. The goal of moderation is to keep the forums enjoyable and free from problems that detract from the experiences of our users.
Bannable Offenses
These offenses can result in temporary or permanent account suspension. If you get a warning, please conduct yourself accordingly.
Insults. Direct personal insult of another forum member and other name-calling. People should be able to discuss or even dispute other's posts without insulting people. You may dispute somebody's opinion but not attack the person who stated it. There are a lot of other indirect insults that won't necessarily get your account immediately terminated, but depending on the context/nature may lead to post editing, post deletion, warnings, or time-outs. They include telling people to shut up or being extremely or repeatedly rude or sarcastic. It's not your place to tell other users they are not welcome; if they follow the rules, they are welcome. Simply, don't make discussions unnecessarily personal. If somebody else insults you, report their post; their post does not give you a license to break the rules by returning their insults. Although we do not read Private Messages sent between forum members, the rules for appropriate and inappropriate content apply to them as well.
Harassment. Purposely intimidating another member, harassing them, sending them abusive, hateful or unwanted private messages, etc. This includes personal attacks on administrators & moderators.
Threats. Any threat or intimation of a threat.
Politics & Religion. No posting of or linking to content or discussions that are of a political or religious nature. Exceptions in forums where indicated.
Explicit content. No posting of or linking to content that is sexually explicit, obscene or pornographic.
Profanity. No profanity, use of offensive language (e.g., racist or hateful terms).
Multiple registrations. You may register only one account.
Trolling. Do not post in order to purposefully anger and aggravate other members.
Doxing. Do not search for and/or publish private or identifying information about (a particular individual) on the forum with malicious intent.
General Community Guidelines
Be respectful towards other forum members. Be kind! We aim to provide a friendly, supportive and fun community for our members. Personal attacks on other members will not be tolerated. Try
and resolve a dispute with another member respectfully via direct message or optionally, report an offending post to a moderator using the report function. Do not take your complaint to the public forums.
Do not post content that reveals the personal information of another person.
Respect site Administrators and Moderators and follow their instructions and directions.
