| Post subject: | Forum Guidelines / Rules |
Welcome to MOA - Home of Military Outdoor Adventure Airsofters We pride ourself on being an active and friendly community, both offline and on. Here's the rules we play by, when you're online. 1. Absolutely NO TRADING / SELLING / BUYING or WANTED threads in the General Public Sections In this instance, your thread may be edited or removed from the boards. You may also be banned permanently! If you have an item for sale please post up in the relevant section according to the rules outlined in that section. By NO TRADING in the General Sections - This covers (for those of you in doubt), the use of eBay and indeed any online auction house or online links to where any item may be for sale. If something is for sale or has been for sale. By linking to it, you are demonstrating TRADING. NO LINKS! If in doubt (still), don't link up! We also do NOT allow LINKS ADVERTISING items or products for sale, in forum signatures! By NO TRADING in the Private Messaging system - This clearly means do NOT attempt to buy or offer goods or services privately. If it is for sale, POST IT UP! 2. Thread / Topic Titles in the General Section. Please always start your thread title with what will be included in the main body. Threads with incorrect titles in the General Section will be removed. 3. Posting offensive or irrelevant material. Any offensive threads will be removed. Any posts deemed irrelevant to the actual thread, may be deleted or edited. Any threads made in the incorrect section will be moved to the correct section. We do not allow any pornographic images on the forums, nor do we allow any links to pornographic websites. If in doubt, don't post it up. In this instance, your thread may be edited, removed from the boards, or moved to the correct section. Your post / thread may also be viewed as against the community spirit (see below!). 5. Community spirit. We are a community and we all try to get on. Yes there will be times when someone disagrees with someone else (we're all human), but we're not kids in a playground. So before anyone wants to start a flame war - THINK VERY CAREFULLY. Negative personal comments towards a member will NOT be accepted and can be considered in a court of law as slander. Constructive criticism is fine, all out nastiness or inciting a flame war is NOT. In this instance, your thread or posts may be deleted - You also face a very strong chance of being completely removed immediately without warning. 6. Off topic posts / Spam and drunken toss. Please try and keep all threads on topic, as best you can - These threads benefit us all etc. Off topic posts may be removed. No one likes reading spam in threads or actual pointless spam threads, this includes coming on the forums when you're bladdered and making yourself look like a tit. The Moderating team are NOT here to clean up your random mess! Any threads / posts removed under these circumstances are subject to the same rules stated in point 4 (above). 7. Text talk or type on the forums. Please save the txt generation lazy arsed typing, for your mobile text messages or MSN etc. If you can't find the time to post in the correct manner, using full words and their correct spelling - Don't bother posting at all. The Moderating team don't have time to edit your posts so that members can understand what you just typed out, so they'll most likely just get deleted. Common use of online abbreviations such as: LOL, PMSL, FTW and so on are absolutely fine. 8. Membership of other online forums & Groups. The majority of us belong to several online forums and groups and that is absolutely fine. However we will NOT accept negative posts made against MOA by any of it's members, on other forums. It's a simple no brainer - If you're a member here and you want to go slagging MOA elsewhere, then obviously you no longer wish to be part of our community. In this instance, your membership from MOA will be immediately removed without warning. 9. Avatars and Signatures. The maximum permitted size for a Forum Signature is 500 X 100 pixels. No erotic or pornographic avatars are allowed. No rude or offensive avatars either - Please remember we are a public forums. Please be mindful of file sizes. We have a size limit of 30Kb for Avatars and 80Kb for Signatures. This will ensure the forum remains fast for all users regardless of connection speed. Whilst we have Flash enabled on these forums, it is only to be used for posts - Flash based signatures are NOT allowed. Signatures must NOT be used to advertise any website where items are for sale, or be used to poach our member base in anyway, shape or form. Any breaches of the above and your signature or avatar will be removed. 10. Advertising other websites / forums / social groups in your posts. Please be respectful that the club owners here spend a lot of time and effort making sure we get a lot of members through our doors. The last thing we want is them going elsewhere! We do NOT allow straight out or blatant advertising of ANY website, forum or club that may impact our membership base. If you believe you have a website of interest to our members, please contact our Moderating Team or Admin Team. All posts advertising any websites, forums or clubs will be removed. All that said and done, enjoy MOA - The guidelines / rules are simple enough. If you have any problems or issues on the forums, please contact our Moderating Team or Admin Team.
