Forum Terms of Use

Choose an appropriate username
When you join, choose a username that is appropriate and non-offensive. Your username can be seen by other members. Most members use a nickname, but you can use your real name if you choose. You can change your username at any time.

Keep member profiles and signatures clean and appropriate
You can fill out a member profile or create forum signatures which appear under your posts. You agree to present clean and accurate information. Any information that is inaccurate, offensive or involving advertising may be removed.

Please respect our copyrighted materials and intellectual property
All content and graphics on this site may not be copied or re-used without express written permission of this site. Some material on this site is available to download for personal use. However, do not reprint, republish, share, distribute or transmit content, images or downloads from this site. Do not post any copyrighted material. You agree not to post or upload material on the forums unless it is yours, you have consent from the copyright owner or you know the material is public domain.

Do not copy and paste tables, charts, articles, code or materials from other websites
Please do not copy and paste materials from other websites into the forums, especially entire webpages, tables or charts which may contain HMTL or other code from another website. This is to respect copyrights as well as prevent formatting errors in our forums.

No advertising, selling or soliciting is allowed
No advertising, solicitations, trading of goods or services, or other commercial activities are allowed in the forums. No bulk messages, spam, chain letters, pyramid schemes, or repeat postings of the same message are permitted. Do not link out to commercial sites or sales pages.

Treat other subscribers with courtesy and respect
Online discussion forums are like any other organised gathering of people; there are rules of etiquette everyone is expected to follow. We believe in free expression of a variety of viewpoints and critical discussion of all ideas. Your experience is bound only by a set of common sense rules that ask you to be civil and show respect for others when you are online.

Do not express disagreements or personal vendettas on the forums
Do not name people you may have a disagreement with or allow identification of those people by inference. Do not threaten, or harass anyone, directly or by indirectly. Doing so will lead to a warning or being banned from the site. If you have any problems regarding another member or a member of the staff, you are encouraged to privately contact the website owner.

Do not post offensive comments or material
You agree not to post anything which is false, vulgar, obscene, sexually-oriented, invading someone's privacy, or otherwise in violation of ANY law. Do not use ethnic slurs or hate speech. Do not libel or defame others. Do not use any profanity.

Please report offensive material
You agree that if you see any texts, photos, videos or other posts that offend you or you think may offend other members, that you will contact the site administrator as soon as possible.

Inappropriate content will be removed
We reserve the right to edit or remove objectionable or inappropriate posts. We do not monitor all forum messages in real time or hold them for approval, so objectionable content cannot be removed until it is seen by the administrators. Violators who post objectionable content may receive a warning, or have their memberships terminated.


You are responsible for all messages and content you post on the forum
You agree to accept responsibility for all forum posts, messages and content you post or which is posted under your user name. This website does not assume responsibility for content posted by members. The person posting a message is solely responsible for that message.
