Forum Rules

[rsstites]

Please obey the following rules; they are here to help keep this a safe and fun place.

1. Show the moderators the proper respect. They are here to insure that all users follow the code of conduct or the forum's rules.

2. Do not post links to inappropriate sites. Such sites can be, but are not limited to, Warez sites, pornography sites, hate sites, etc.

3. Be kind. We will not tolerate harassment, profanity, racial slurs or anything of that sort. The staff's decision is final on determining whether this rule has been violated.

4. Stay on topic. If you must go off topic then go to the General section, but even there all rules must be obeyed and no spamming is allowed. Off topic posts will be moved or deleted. Repeated attempts to spam or post off-topic conversations may result in suspension from this service or being banned.

5. If you have a problem or complaint about any other member send a private message to a moderator or the administrator. They will do everything in their ability to resolve your issue.

6. If you use HTML coding in your posts, then keep it simple. There is no advanced HTML coding allowed, and if your post is improperly coded or the HTML adversely effects the page or site, then your post is subject to deletion.

7. A word filter will replace explicit words. Any attempt to modify the word so the filter does not replace it is not allowed. Inappropriate words are determined by the Heroes of Gaming staff.

8. Do not use inappropriate signatures or avatars. They may not contain nudity, profanity, or any offensive material. The images must also be of appropriate size (no larger than 100x100 for sigs). Whether a signature or avatar image is appropriate is determined by the Moderators and the Administrator(s).

9. Do not disrespect anybody for their religious beliefs. Everybody has the freedom to believe, or not believe, in any religion. It is a constitutional right in America, and that extends to these forums.

*These rules are subject to change at any time without prior notice. If you have any questions contact a Moderator or the Administrator.

Please abide by all rules the rules.

If you see a broken rule pm and member of the staff. We will act quickly to remove it.

Thank you in advance.

And above all else, just have fun.
