Before you post : A search should be done to see
if your questions have not been already posted. You have a FAQ section
where you can find answers for general questions about board management
Arrow Frequently Asked Questions

- Topic titles :
When
you post your question or your problem, you must use a title related to
your problem/question. Words such as "Urgent", "SOS", "Question",
"Problem", "Hurry" are not tolerated. Capitals should also be avoided.

-
Description of you problem/question : When you ask a question, try to
be clear and accurate about what you want to say. Don't hesitate to
describe your problem. The more info you give, the better we can answer
you.

- Language on this forum :
When you write in English,
SMS (cell phone) style message, L3375P34K (leetspeak) and deliberate
mistakes must be avoided. Non-English people, as well as English
people, must be able to understand what you write, so put a minimum of
care in your English, even if your English is not very good (eh,
Godfather...lol? Wink )

- Colors and capitals :
When you write your message, please don't abuse capitals (it means that you shout) or colors.
Some colors are reserved for moderation and light colors are hard to read for visually impaired people.

- Flood and off-topic :
Flood must be avoided. One-word posts such like "lol", "rofl" or a single smiley must be avoided.
You must also avoid to post the same topic twice, it will not be faster for you to get a response.
As
long as you topic is not in the second page of the support section, it
is useless to up it. The minimun delay between two Ups is 24 hours,
according to this board's default timezone (GMT + Cool.
If you make a mistake, please use the button at the top-right of your post, to avoid double-posting

Behavior on the forum

-
Defamatory, racist, hateful, pornographic, illegal or insulting content
must be avoided on this forum. You must respect the fact that people
may have a different opinion than you. If you are in conflict with
another member, please use PMs for that, this board is not an arena!

-
Please, be patient. It's useless to up your topic every 2 minutes (see
the point "Flood and Off-topic"). Every member of this forum has a
private life besides Forumotion, so they can't always respond
immediately.

- You must respect the moderators and administrators. They all work volontarily on this forum and they are human, not machines!

-
If you received pornographic content or insults by PM, you must send
the whole copy (including the headers) to a moderator by PM. Posting it
in a topic is useless and will only cause conflicts between you and the
one who sent you the PM.

- If you don't find your topic, it may have been moved to a more appropriate place Arrow How to find your own messages
If you have a question, PM a moderator for that!

Avatar and Profile

- Avatar dimensions :
Your
avatar's width must not exceed 150 pixels and its height must not
exceed 200 pîxels. These limits are here to avoid scrolling for people
who have a low screen resolution. You must also respect the limit of
weight which is fixed to 300 KB. There are still people who have a
low-speed connection, and heavy pictures take time to load for them.

- Sexually oriented and gore avatars must be avoided

Possible sanctions

-
If your avatar doesn't respect the rules and you ignore the moderator's
request to have it changed, the Administrator may forbid you from
displaying an Avatar.

- Ignoring the moderators' warnings and
continuing to not respect the rules, insulting people and trolling may
result to a simple ban from this forum, an Forumotion-wide ban or a ban
forum deleted, according to the gravity of the member's fault.

If you have any question about one of the forum rules, please PM a moderator to ask your question.
