- The new user ("newbie") member status, with moderated posts, has been increased to the first five posts and for at least one month after signup.
- Signatures for new users will be suspended during that period, and only relevant links will be allowed.
- Usernames will be reviewed, and those that are email addresses will be converted to the alllowed character set, replacing offending characters with underscores.
- Posts that appear to be for the sole purpose of boosting SEO (eg "Your post was useful", especially for an old thread) will not be approved.
The forum policies & guidelines:
- Please use English, and proper English at that, except for the "regional user groups" subforum.
- Be respectful of others; personal differences should be handled elsewhere.
- Do not use this forum to promote your non-related business.
- Offensive language will not be tolerated. Spam is offensive.
- It's a good idea to check if your question has been answered already.
- Use meaningful titles when creating new threads.
- Stay on topic. Thread-hijacking posts will not be approved.
- Do not knowingly post copyrighted material.
- If you want to format your posts, or to include code in them, use MyCode tags.
- New users will not be allowed links in their signatures until they progress beyond "newbie" status.
- Corporate logos should not be used for avatars.
- Usernames should contain letters, digits, dots or underscores only - no emails.
- Policy violators will have their posts deleted or not approved. Repeat violators or obvious spammers will be purged without notice.
Reminder: newly registered users have their first posts moderated. This may take a few hours or a few days, depending on what the volunteer moderators are up to.
