Like a lot of forums, we don't ask you to do anything you wouldn't expect to be asked in a civilised society. If any of these rules are unclear, or you have questions on them, please contact a mod.
1. BE POLITE. It's basic, people. Don't shout down anyone else, don't use racist or abusive language (some of this will be tolerated if clearly in jest and between people who realise this), don't criticise or bully anyone. No flame wars, no hate speech, no sexist or otherwise unacceptable language and generally, just, you know, be nice. To a point.
2. NO SPAM. Well that's pretty obvious isn't it? Don't post spam. No advertising, endorsement of products or services, or links to same. Don't post the same thread or post multiple times.
3. One user account per person, duh. Anyone found making sock puppets will have their socks removed and they'll be lost in the dryer, so don't even try it.
4. No plagiarism. If you're writing journals or long articles, do your research and use your own words. It's not cool to copy anyone else's work. If you do have to copy something - as, say, a quote or a long example of something you don't want to write out yourself - please ensure this is noted, e.g., "copied vertbatim from..."
5. Don't give out your password to anyone. Just say no. If your account somehow gets hacked, let us know. Don't go all Liam Neeson on us.
6. No Covid-19 misinformation will be tolerated here. Please do not make posts of this nature, as they will be removed. They are dangerous, and also completely wrong.
7. Members are responsible for what they post, and the forum will not be held liable for anything they post, whether this is in the main forum or in personal journals.
These rules may be added to as I think of more.
