Forum Rules - Willmark - 11-17-2015

Forum Rules:
Please take time to read the following and observe them, continual failure to do so might involve warnings being issued by the Staff.

* Be polite to others, flaming, rudeness, swearing, SHOUTING and causing nuisance or offense is not tolerated. Obscenity, derogatory terms and racial abuse will also not be tolerated. This applies to people's avatars too.

* Advertising or trading of any miniatures is only allowed in The Market Place. Advertising for anything other than wargaming miniatures or wargame hobby related products will result in the threads being locked.

* Single Ebay links are allowed (it's up to the individual whether they choose to buy anything), but not relentless advertising of Ebay shops.

* Please respect the Staff and your fellow members by only posting in English so we can all understand.

* Spam of any kind is not tolerated. If it's your first post and its spam we will assume you are a spam bot and your account will be locked/ deleted. If you feel hard done by just re-register and make your first few posts things that could not be taken as spam.

* Advertising the copying or mould making of original models (for the purposes of mass production) would be in breach of somebody's Intellectual Property Rights and/ or Copyrights and so is not advised. Any such threads may be locked or deleted.

Signatures and Avatars:

* Signatures and Avatars may not contain offensive words or images.

* Animated GIF's in signatures are not permitted.

Forum Etiquette:
The Dogs of War Online Forum is a place where people can relax and chat about all things Dogs of War. There are several things members can to do try and keep the forum running smoothly.

* If a topic has not had any replies for at least a month then let it slowly slide down the page. Generally it's not a good idea to dredge up old topics unless you have something new to add.

* Resist the urge to flame! If you feel a topic has escalated to the point of continuing arguments to no happy end then don't keep arguing! Try and get the thread back on topic or ignore it. Persistent arguing to no useful end will probably result in the thread being locked anyway.

* Don't use excessive txt spk or other shorthand ways of writing. It's hard to read and is completely unnecessary.

* Use punctuation.

* Avoid making the vast majority of your posts one-liners, especially the sort that add very little constructively. Continually doing this will probably get you banned.

Using your Account:
You can access your account by going to User CP on the main list at the top. Here you can change your settings and your public avatar/ signature.
