Posting rules

Posted Sat, 06/06/2009 - 02:09 by executor

No Trolling - Do not post comments with the sole purpose to cause an argument. You are free to express your opinion on a matter, but this is not the place to abuse anyone who doesn't have the same opinion as you. Repeat trolling will result in a ban.
No Abusive Posts - Be nice to each other. Anyone who is found to be abusive to another member will be banned at the Moderators' discretion.
No Obscenity - Do not post any obscene messages or pictures, including pornography. Doing so may result in an instant ban. Graphic language is accepted, as long as it is within reasonable limits.
No Commercial Posts without prior authorisation.
No Impersonation of Other Users.
No All Caps - This is seen as rude. Please don't do it.
No Large Pictures in Signatures - A few words are fine, or an image no greater than 550x75 pixels in size.
No Off-topic Links to Personal Websites without prior authorisation.
Treat Fellow Posters with Respect and Courtesy - Always.
No Piracy - No discussion of how to illegally obtain copyrighted material or links to websites promoting subversion of copyright.
No Posting of Personal Contact Information - For your safety, no public posting of any personal contact information is permitted.

Forum-specific rules

No Flaming or posting of material intended to start a flame war.
No Excessive Bumping - If people want to reply to your thread they will do. Please don't post repeatedly in your own thread to bump it. A forum is a discussion center not a speech medium.

Failure to comply with these rules will be met by the following response from Starcrarft 2 Observer administrators:

Any and all of these steps may be taken depending on the severity of an offence.
