Title: Rules of the Forum
Post by: Grymdycche on February 07, 2011, 02:18:16 PM
Thanks for your interest in the Rune Forum.
The rules here are fairly straightforward, simple, and reasonable.

No trolling, no flaming, no spamming, no illicit activity-  no problem!
Trolling and flaming will get you suspended, and, up to the discretion of the admin(s) and mods, even banned.
Spamming can get you an immediate ban.  By spamming, I don't mean mere mention of a Rune related product or book you have on the market once or twice, (that's fine), I mean gratuitous, flood like spamming.

Posting links to porn sites (maybe ;))or virus infected sites will also get you in very hot water; again, at our discretion.

Well..  almost done   There's just a little bit more.

Also unwelcome here is political soapboxing, or hate speech. You know what I mean- no Bush-bashing or Obama-beating, no pounding on Palin or Pelosi; and please, no tirades on certain ethnic groups and what have you. We're not about that.
Religious talk, however, is probably something of a necessity given the subject matter here.  Let's just keep the politics out of it though.

That said, otherwise, please do feel free to express your honest opinion, just so long as the forum doesn't become abused as a bully pulpit. 
In other words, I don't want to straitjacket anyone with political correctness (which I see as censorship of free speech) but OTOH, users should be mindful of maintaining a friendly, open, objective, and understanding environment.

As to "adult" language, so long as it's not overly gratuitous, I don't really care if someone drops an occasional bomb here or there, as I don't see many minors showing an interest in the board at this time.
Just be aware that this is, however, subject to change pending future circumstances, if they warrant it.  Just try not be a total potty mouth, okay?  In the interest of civility, there may be a certain word or two blocked with filters, but in general, I want people to be comfortable and relaxed here

Lastly, this forum and admin will in no way be held responsible for any opinions made on this board by a user member.  I believe in personal responsibility -in a word, Wyrd.
You post it, you own it!

Now, let's talk runes..
