TeamZX2 Forum Rules

If you have an issue that can not be resolved by a moderator, please contact the appropriate persons user name via Private Message. Each persons user name is in paranthesis.

For administrative issues and suggestions regarding the forums, technical issues relating to the forums and/or content, account problems, or anything else TeamZX2 related, please contact: (Admin)

Finally, the rules. It is your responsibility to understand and regularly check these rules.

Subject matter pertaining to posts:
No CUSSING in the subject lines, this is grounds for immediate removal of your posting privileges.
No spamming. Any such messages will be removed at the discretion of either a forum moderator or administrator. No flaming with no reasoning behind it. No bombing forums or threads with pointless posts a.k.a. "Post-whoring." NO SHOUTING (DO NOT TYPE IN ALL CAPS IN SUBJECT LINES OR IN THE ACTUAL POST). It's just plain rude and annoying.
No posting of pornographic material.
Please keep related topics in one thread, and keep unrelated topics seperated. If you are going to post 10 jokes, put them all in one thread.
Refrain from using excessive profanity. Excessive can be defined in many ways. Ultimately it is up to the forum administrators and moderators to decide.
Post to the forum that is most appropriate for the topic being presented.
Observe all copyright laws when posting copyrighted material. If the material belongs to someone else, credit the original author.
Do not post material where you do not have permission to distribute it electronically or otherwise.
No advertising, buying, selling, or trading anywhere with the exception of the appropriate trade forums.
Posts should be in English only. Non-English posts may be removed.
You will not discuss, suggest, engage, or encourage any illegal activity. Links provided to locations that deal with any such activity are also expressly forbidden.
Do not post messages that violate Federal, State, or Local laws which include, but are not limited to, anything that violates a copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, or is bound by a NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement).
Chat sessions are strictly forbidden within a topic that is not meant as such. 1 on 1 discussions about how your hair is looking today can be done in PM or through a IM client. *see next bullet*.
No side tracking a post into a chat session. If you catch yourself doing so, please end the session and take it to PM or request the person start a new topic to continue the discussion if it is worthy of a new topic. Chat sessions will still be under the above rule.
Do not call out members of the forum unless it is a dire need to do so. We will not tolerate slandering of a member if it was unjust.

don't ask where I had this stored -_-"

Admins and Moderators, please don't be offended that I posted this, as I just wanted some set of rules back in place (I feel naked without them). Please feel free to edit, rename, move and/or remove this post as you see fit. It should be, for the most part, an exact replica of the original rules, but I can't guarantee it's accuracy.

At any rate, thank you for bringing the forums back up. I wasn't very active as a contributor, but i sure missed the site!

May this one be as glorious and even better than the old one!
