These forums are a courtesy and are brought to you at the convenience of Attila for DYG members and community. Respect each other and everyone will be happy.
If anyone has a problem with someone posting something on the forums report them by clicking the Report Post button in the upper right. DO NOT get into an argument do not try to inform them that they are in the wrong. Just report them and let a Mod or Admin deal with it.
Rules and Posting Guidelines: 1. If a Mod or Admin tells you something, then do it. We aren't able to cover all possibilities within these guidelines, so the general rule of thumb is: If a Mod says black is white, it's white. Listen to what they tell you to do, regardless of whether you can find a rule about it or not.
2. No spam, no flaming. That means no threads inciting flames or mindless chatter unless strictly allowed but a Mod or an Admin. Personal attacks - 'flames' - are strictly prohibited. Don't post in an obnoxious manner.
3. No Double Posting. Use the edit function. Reading 3 posts in a row by the same author is extremely annoying. Got something to add to your original post after you've hit reply? Use edit.
4. No bumping old threads with pointless replies. Only add to an old thread if your comments are relevant and would be seen as a viable addition to a thread. Continuing on a conversation dropped months ago is not a viable reason.
5. No +18 stuff, no nudity. Pornography is banned from the forums.
6. Do not drag threads offtopic. Threads may be locked if you drag them offtopic. You may have your posts deleted. You are responsible for your posts, so if you get thread locked due to offtopic posts, it is your fault and no one elses. Offtopic posts that derail a thread ( provide fodder for others to post offtopic ), will most likely be deleted straight away.
7. Do not post a thread and have the only content of the first post a link to a website with no qualifying text. Members need to know where they are going, and a either a brief summary by the thread starter or commentary as well as some kind of discussion incentive is required.
8. Do not post the same thread in more than one forum. Choose the most appropriate forum for your topic and post it once only. In addition, creating a thread in one forum for the sole purpose of advertising a thread in another forum is not permitted.
9. Do not harass or belittle people on the forum. It will not be tolerated and your post will be deleted and you will receive a warning. Too many warnings and you will receive a 2 days suspension.
