1. Forum rules
a. Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users are asked to read the forum descriptions before posting. Users consistently posting to the wrong forum may be given a warning.
 
b. Members should post in a way that is respectful of other users. Flaming or abusing users in any way will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning.
 
c. Members are asked to not act as “back seat moderators”. If members note an issue which contravenes something in this policy document they are welcome to bring it to the attention of a member of the Moderation Team. Please use the “post report” feature to report posts. Do not respond to such topics yourself. Members who constantly “act” as moderators may be warned.

e. Members are asked to respect the copyright of other sites, media, etc.
 
f. Members should respect the bandwidth of other users and sites. The use of inline [IMG] image tags pointing to data stored on third party systems for which the user has not received permission to link to may be removed.
 
g. Members should post in a way which is consistent with "normal writing". That is users should not post a beyond excessive numbers of emoticons, large, small or colored text, etc. Similarly users should not SHOUT or use excessive punctuation (e.g. ! and ?) in topic titles or posts.
