Forum Rules

Posting:
Please only make on-topic, coherent posts that add something to the discussion. If you have nothing to say that has not already been said, do not post anything. Making short, inane posts with no purpose other than to increase your own post count is considered spamming and is not allowed on this forum. All spam will be deleted without prior warning. If you are posting about a topic requesting help or advice, please be specific and offer information that is useful so that people attempting to reply will not have to ask for more information.

Double Posting:

There is no reason to post two or three times in a row. If you bump your topic it will be locked/deleted. Continue to bump topics and you will be banned. If you need to reply to post something new to your post, simply edit your previous post instead of double posting. You can do this by clicking the "Edit" button on your own post.

Flaming/Bashing:
It is well known that truth is discovered through debate. Nevertheless, abusive or derogatory comments aimed at other members of the forums will not be tolerated, and will result in severe punitive action. In any debate, keep your comments focused on the issue at hand, not on the people you are debating with.

Impersonating:
Impersonating administrators, moderators, or members of the organizing committee is strictly forbidden. Asking for another user's password is also strictly forbidden. Doing so will get you permanently banned without a warning. Please note that GMs and eRO staff will never ask for your password -- don't tell it to anyone.

Ban Evasion:
If you are banned from the forums, do not make a new account. This is considered a ban evasion. If you make new posts or replies on your new account, your ban will be extended if it is not permanent. In addition, we will hunt down your new threads and posts and delete them. If your ban is not permanent, please learn from your mistakes. Repeat offenders will be punished more severely.
