I think we will snip this to here and give this a hearty pad lock.
But first, let us not forget:
Rules of Conduct<blockquote><hr>
A. Show respect at all times.
B. Help build the Community.
The success of our forums depends upon the quality posts of our participants. We are proud of the success of our forums and give our thanks to those who have chosen to make our forums their out-of-game home. To ensure continued success we are posting these guidelines so that all participants of the Stratics forums understand what is considered unacceptable behavior in the forums and can result in a temporary suspension or a permanent ban.
D. Trolling is prohibited.
Trolling is whenever someone is clearly, deliberately posting in a manner for the purpose of angering and/or insulting the other participants of the board. Trolling DOES NOT encourage further discussion in the long run, it only encourages personal attacks (if left unchecked).

And let's not leave out the good ones..<blockquote><hr>
H. Posting details of bugs and exploits in such a way that others are able to perform said bug or exploit is prohibited. In addition,
documented involvement in activities that prove to be malicious and/or illegal in nature as it concerns the gaming industry as a whole will lead to immediate and permanent banning from the forums.
O. Activities that are against any games' Terms of Service or the User Agreement are prohibited from being promoted or advertised on our network. This includes, but is not limited to, third party programs, game item sales for real world goods, power leveling services, and/or links to such items.

There shall be no boasting of anyone's illegal activities, wheather one's own or someone else's. "Self-confessing" individuals on our forums should be reported through Private Messages or by email to
[email protected] - they will be delt with accordingly.
Thank you and my apologies for this disruption.
