Sigurfreys Forum is designed to be a place where people can gather and hold discussions on various subjects in a friendly and non aggressive environment. We want every person to have an enjoyable experience and the Rules have been written in accordance with this goal.
In order that everyone may obtain the maximum benefits from their participation these Rules must be followed at all times. By voluntarily participating in this forum you agree to follow the Forum Rules and the User Agreement or forfeit your rights to participate.
1. Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users are asked to read the forum descriptions before posting. Users consistently posting to the wrong forum may be given a warning (see policing).
2. Members should post in a way that is respectful of other users. Flaming or abusing users in any way including modifying forum member names when quoting them will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning.
3. Members are asked to not act as “back seat administrators”. If members note an issue which contravenes something in this policy document they are welcome to bring it to the attention of a member of the Administrator Team. Please use the “post report” feature to report posts. Do not respond to such topics yourself. Members who constantly “act” as administrators may be warned.
4. Members should remember this forum is aimed at a general audience. Posting pornographic, racist, prejudiced or generally offensive text, links, etc. will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning.
5. Members are asked to respect the copyright of other users, sites, media, etc. Users linking to or asking for information on warez, crackz, etc. or re-printing material without permission will receive a warning and their post will be removed.
6. Members should respect the law of the country. Any enquiries about how to obtain illegal drugs, illegal weapons, contraband or unlawful service of any kind is strictly forbidden in the forum. Any offering of illegal drugs, illegal weapons or illegal service of any kind, weather obvious or hinted at, is also forbidden. All such post will be deleted and the user responsible banned permanently from the forum without warning.
7. Members should post in a way which is consistent with “normal writing”. That is users should not post excessive numbers of emoticons, large, small or coloured text, strings of/repeated characters (lines, punctuation etc). Similarly users should not SHOUT or use excessive punctuation (e.g. ! and ?) in topic titles or posts. Offending posts may be deleted and Users warned.
8. Members should use an appropriate, descriptive subject when posting a new topic. Examples of bad subjects include; “Help me!”, “Oh dear!”, “What’s up!”, etc. Examples of good subjects include; “I need help finding a good lawyer”, “Can anyone recommend a good book on the Drug War?”, etc.
9. Spam is not tolerated here under any circumstance. This includes offering services (charged and free), solicitation etc. Users posting spam will be warned and their post removed.
10. The administrators, support and other teams reserve the right to edit, remove or put on moderation queue any post at any time.
11. Members should refrain from copying and quoting large passages of material from other sources, especially without adding appropriate comments themselves. The correct way is quote sufficient only to support the posters comments and supply a web link to the source document.
12. Posters should not post words or phrases which are designed only to ridicule Sigurfreys Forum, its staff, the administrators or any other poster. Any such post will be deleted immediately and the poster may be banned.
Depending on the seriousness of the breach of Forum Rules a number of options are available to the management of Sigurfreys Forum. 1. For very serious offences a poster will be immediately and permanently banned. For less serious offences a temporary ban will be issued. This could be of any period from 1 hour to 30 days, depending on the offence and the posters history.
For minor infractions a warning will be issued asking the poster to modify their behaviour. However if a poster carries on with similar inappropriate actions after receiving a warning then this will undoubtedly be treated as a more serious offence.
2. Users who feel they have been unfairly warned are welcome to contact the main Administrator. If the main Administrator feels you were treated badly he or she may remove the warning.
4. Any attempt to circumvent a temporary ban or other administrator action will lead to a permanent ban of your account(s). Circumvention includes re-registering or using an already registered account under a non-banned username. Other examples include changing IP addresses, using a new email account or other action that can be taken to evade administrator action to hide your identity as the owner of the sanctioned account.
5. An exception to the above rule applies when users contact administrators personally (via any method) and post insulting, indecent or vulgar material. Such users may be subject to an immediate permanent ban.
6. Permanent bans are a last resort and thought is given before implementing them. While Sigurfreys Forum may consider lifting permanent bans from time to time this is a rare occurrence.
