The intention is not to act as forum police. In fact, the rules here are very relaxed compared to other forums; although occasionally there has to be a reminder of the rules. Incidently, no members have managed to get themselves banned so far this year, except those who have posted blatant spam.

Hopefully you have noticed that some recent changes, to prevent posting by unregistered users, has made a dramatic difference to the amount of spam being posted. Most spammers cannot be bothered to register, as it must be done by a human being, and their posts are usually removed within minutes, even before another member can click the "report this post" icon.

All we ask is that you follow these simple guidelines from DarthCarl:

• Be polite. Write messages as if you are standing in front of someone talking to them.
• Criticism should be relevant and constructive. If you disagree with something, state your case, and move on.
• Don't post copyrighted material
• I also ask that posts be written in English to maximize participation. If English is not your native language, just do the best you can.

I agree 100%. I can only admire to administrators patience, nervs and best democracy i ever seen so far. You are on very right track! Just keep it that way! My tributes to this place and administrators!
