Caution & Warning
Do Not Bump Threads
Posting in a thread in order to raise post count and to knock it back up to the top of the list, is severely frowned upon.
It is not allowed, as it is a form of spamming.
If a thread is dying out naturally, it means no one is interested in continuing the discussion and its time is expired, so let it die unless you have something relevant to add to the discussion. You are not allowed to simply "bump" threads with a meaningless reply under any circumstances.
Replying with the Same Message (copy and pasting stock replies)
It comes to our attention that many people are using the same message to reply to each post in this section.
Copying and pasting a stock reply, or simply posting smiles or a 'hello' is spamming.
While we make allowances for occasional Spam, consistent Spamming cannot be tolerated.
If a member violates one of these 2 rules, he or she may be contacted by a moderator with a reminder of the forum rules and a request to keep the rules in mind in the future and this will be the First and the Last Verbal Warning. Depending upon the severity of the violation, Moderators or Administrators may include a warning that continued violations will result in suspension.
Members who continue violating these rules after the Verbal Warning, will be grounds for termination and will be put on Warning Level or Ban depending on his reported action.
Please follow these rules and avoid warnings!
