1. No Flaming. People argue a lot, please don't demean each other over the forums.
2. No Trolling. Asking loaded questions and seeking to get flamed is NOT good (if you get flamed by someone from trolling, you're both in the wrong).
3. No Spam. The forum is supposed to be a discussion, so spam does NOT fit in here. Spam at its core is only more work for the mods and admin.
4. Don't Advertise. See rule number 3.
5. No double posting. Please don't attempt to "bump" topics. Bumping your own topic from the grave might just earn a lock as well as a warning from a moderator.
6. We have word filters to get rid of any profanity, don't go around them!
7. No alternate accounts. There is no reason for them and they are mostly used for "bad" stuff anyway.
8. No excessively violent/adult avatars or signatures.
9. Don't go to a forum just to bash the material there. Criticisms are allowed, but accept that opinions are opinions.

Most rules operate on a three strikes, you're out policy.

However, there are circumstances where the user will be instantly banned, #7 is one of those instances. Also, this is more of a suggestion than a rule, but good grammar is always appreciated.
