In order to keep a civil community we need to have some rules.
1. Do not post off topic. I know that at times the conversations tend to steer away, but try to get it back on topic or we may split or lock the post.
2. Everyone has the right to there own opinion. If someone doesn't like how your car looks, they have the right to say it. However, personal flames are not tolerated.
3. Do not post useless info to raise your post count, you all know what this is called. It is not acceptable, and we reserve the right to delete them.
4. Keep it clean. By law you must be 13 or older to register without a parent's consent, but we must maintain a civil environment.
5. Along with the above, do not post pornographic images.
6. Do not link images off-site. Some websites, aka rotten.com, replaces linked images with some very obscene images. You could ruin your reputation with some of the stuff they put in there. Plus, it is basically stealing there bandwith.
7. Keep signatures less than 10 lines.
8. Keep posted images at 640 by 480 or less. Do not incovenience the rest of the users with scroll bars, everyone hates them as it is.
9. Do not flame individuals
10. Do not flame other forums, we will not have forum wars. (Can't we all just get along?)
11. If you have a Gripe with a Moderator or SITE ADMIN, PM them and talk to them like adults.
12. Threats and other personal harrasment is grounds for immediate and permanent banning. This isn't 3rd grade and no one wants to fight you. You are 3000 miles away anyways, so treat folks like you want to be treated.
13. When a group buy is over and all customers have received their items, the GB POC will edit the post name so that it is preceded with *CLOSED*. After the title is edited, they will then contact the forum moderator or an admin to have the topic moved to the Closed Group Buy forum. This is to prevent confusion amongst members, and to allow ongoing group buys to receive more notice.
14. There will be absolutely no harrasment/flaming in the Newbie Bin. If you can not help them, do not even post.
We reserve the right to modify or add to these rules without prior notice.
if you look under SITE RULES you would find the SITE RULES fing02.gif fing02.gif

its what we refer to as "post whoring" pardon the expression
bumping a post within 24 hours is concidered a "double post" which is a form of "post whoring"

24 hours my man.
For new users, we give them about 20 to 50 posts to learn the ropes, then the warnings start. You have 20 chances. LOL
No one has got all the way yet with 20. We have a few with about 15 warnings, but usually they get banned for something else by then.
cool.gif
Anyways, you are the only one that can see your warning meter. You, and the staff I should say.
No worries though. Learn from your mistakes, and move on. It's not a serious issue till you start getting alot of them.

ok then, wtf.
how come i have this warning when i came back to this site after not being here freaking forever for quoting someone above me.
yea, NOW i know its not allowed, but did i have to get warned?
then again, i dun give a sh!t, so i guess its no biggie.
its just i see others doing it and they don't have that 5% warning crap under their name and stuff.
eh, whatever
