I did construct these for somewhere else but I think they can work here.
Flaming or Derogatory Insults
Do not engage in personal attacks, hurl insults, accuse posters of unfounded suspicions, stalk another member of the board, or create posts and/or threads in an effort to purposely pick a fight with another user. (Obviously, lively banter or insult-trading between consenting individuals who are not motivated by malice or an intent to willfully hurt or harm another user will not be considered acting disruptively.)
Invasion of Privacy
Do not post personal information about any other person, even if that information is publicly available*. Do not "dig up" information about any other member in this forum. Information, including personal information such as email, home and/or IP address, place of employment, birthday, etc. known to be utilized to maliciously target another user in a harassing or derogatory manner is strictly forbidden even if the information was made publicly available by the proprietary user. Any user(s) found to be using information in a destructive course either on or off the board will be subject to punishment up to and including the possibility of a permanent ban from membership.
*You may post the public contact information for public figures, but you may not post anyone's private information without their consent, and you may not use any private information for retaliatory purposes. You may, for example, post Robert Del Najas public contact address via his management or any information explicitly released by his management, but it is unacceptable to post any information deemed private, such as his home address, etc. Information posted in this vein will be deleted immediately and replaced with a statement citing this guideline. This rule applies to all users of the board. No exceptions.
Threats, Racism, and/or Sexism
Messages that advocate harm or death to anyone, threaten the livelihood of anyone, or otherwise harass anyone will not be tolerated. This type of behavior is unacceptable in any form, be it posted message, Private Messages (PM) or email.
Threads or replies promoting or expressing intolerant views towards any person or group of people based on their race, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, lack of religion, disability, physical characteristics, or region of residence will not be tolerated.
Obsessive Behavior:
Please refrain from making posts that are stalking in nature.
Spamming, Off Topic Posts and Trolling
Spamming or business advertisements via posts in threads, Private Messages (PM) or email are not allowed. Threads or PMs determined to be "spam" will be deleted and accounts will be deleted without notice. "Trolling", or makings posts designed only to stir up trouble or flame other users is against the forum guidelines.
Impersonation of others
You may not impersonate any person in the community, including any band member of Massive Attack.
Posting Harmful URL's
Posting harmful and/or malicious URL links (i.e., ones that may lock up a user’s computer) is not allowed.
Avatars or Signatures
For the benefit of all users, please ensure that your signature is not excessively long, and is free of large images. Both avatars and Signatures should not contain material that is pornographic.
Please refrain from posting pornographic material or images of extreme violence in your avatar and signature.
Attacking the Administrator
Persistent attacks on forum policy or criticism is not welcome on the these boards. However, respectful, constructive critique will always be allowed, and all concerns will be considered and treated with respect, even if they are ultimately considered unfounded. Please respect your forum administrator's decision, and, in the case of serious disagreement with a particular action, please PM and try to discuss remedies first.
Please treat admin with respect and he will do the same for you.
