Please remember this board is for fun and communication. For that reason it would be good to keep a few things in mind.
-- Remember to type messages in a way that everyone can understand them. After much practice, one can learn to read other languages. Probably everyone here will speak and write English. However not everyone will understand leet, redneck, ebonics, or other forms of slang. Keep that in mind before you write something like "im teh uber 1337327 lolzz!!1!11!!"
-- Flame wars will not be tolerated. It is understood that whenever people discuss a topic, many different opinions will arise. Heated discussions are soon to follow. While this is both acceptable and encouraged, flames are not. Any posts made simply to pick on another person or degrade someone's character will be deleted.
-- Proboards is kind enough to provide this service at no charge. Let us respect their wishes and their servers. Please try to limit "empty posts". That is, posts which contain only a few words but do not add to the discussion. Also, do not post any material that could be considerred pornographic, racial, hateful, or exploitive.
-- Fun for one is boring for another. I love to play video games, read books, and watch TV. Someone else may hate all three. Please respect everyone else's opinion, and expect them to do the same.
An example of a good way to post would be as such:
Poster 1: I loved the movie Deep Blue Sea! It was great!
Poster 2: I hated that movie. Terrible graphics and unrealistic characters.
An example of a bad way to post would be like this:
Poster 1: I loved the movie Deep Blue Sea! It was great!
Poster 2: That movie sucked and so do you.
See the difference?
-- Come back often. Post as much or as little as you'd like. Treat everyone the way you would like them to treat you back. Mostly, have fun talking to your friends and family, and make new friends while you're at it! Remember to invite as many people to this board as you would like. The more people we have here, the more chances we have to get a great thread going!
