The forums are a place where people can interact and have discussions about different topics. We ask that you follow these guidelines to ensure that the forums have some productive conversation. These rules and guidelines are enforced by administrators and moderators, and at their discretion they may delete posts without warning that do not comply. Also, failure to comply with these rules or our Terms and Conditions and Rules of Conduct may result in a ban from the forums.

• Language — Any thread topics or replies written in a language other than English may be removed without notice. This is mainly because we cannot moderate languages we do not understand.
  
• No Flaming — No "flaming" or "badgering" or writing hostile or insulting messages aimed at other users for their views, comments, status as a user on this community, or any other reason. You can disagree with someone's views and still be polite about it.
  
• No Trolling — No trolling or posting controversial (sometimes off-topic) messages with the intent of baiting other users to reply. Also, please do not feed trolls.
  
• No Spamming — No advertisements, or referral links to other services. We also classify "spam" as short replies (usually fewer than 7 words) which do not contribute to a forum thread in a positive manner. Some forum threads expect short messages (like some forum games), but otherwise short messages are highly discouraged. Do not post for the sake of forum post count. Your posts will be removed if we see you posting unhelpful or non-contributing messages to the discussion.
  
• No Necro Behavior — Posting replies on very old (dead) threads which have not been locked. We only allow 'necro' replies in VERY rare circumstances, all other cases will find your reply removed. If you feel strongly enough about posting a reply, please discuss with a Moderator whether to start a new thread of discussion.
  
• No excessive swearing or language. If you're that angry about something, take a break from the forums for a while, or confront the other user directly instead of in the forums. Also, do not attempt to use any means to bypass our profanity filter, such as misspelling a cuss word, or using punctuation or spaces. We are much more likely to ban users for this behavior than those who let the profanity filter replace cuss words with *'s instead. Still, excessive swearing can get you in trouble too, so keep it clean.

If you have any questions about these rules, you may contact a moderator or you could also ping Avesta personally for any doubts and queries.
