Here you will find general rules and guidelines for using the discussions forum.

User Expectations

Above all, users are expected to be kind, helpful, and respectful. Assume the best of people and try to make things better. Beyond just seeking solutions, users are encouraged to help others. If they know the answer to someone else’s question, it is greatly appreciated that they offer assistance. This is by no means mandatory, and no one is compelled to help anyone else.

All users are required to follow moderator instructions. The guidelines below are not all encompassing as that is impossible. Moderators will regularly make requests for users to change behavior that is borderline violations, in order to steer them right.

Do Not Spam

The forums are here for providing users with a venue to get help with problems and discuss related topics. In light of this, please refrain from using signatures, new topics, or responses to existing topics as a venue to promote your own products, themes or services unless directly relevant to the topic at hand.

Things To Avoid

We need to keep the forums friendly, so, occasionally, topic content will be moderated. In severe cases, users may be blocked. This might mean anything from the light editing of some posts to complete removal of topics and deactivation of accounts. It should really go without saying, but the following are likely candidates for moderation or intervention:

• Do not post email addresses, ask others to post their email.
• Do not post, offer, or ask for login information.
• Do not post another person’s private information (job, gender, living situation, location, etc).
• Do not harass or abuse people.
• Do not post spam and affiliate links, offensive posts, posts without content, or flames.
• Do not post in all caps.
• Do not disregard/ignore direct communication from forum moderators.
• Do not seek legal advice on the forums.
• Do not threaten lawsuits or any other legal action on the forums.
