Firstly, thank you for being a part of Electro Tech! This forum has been around for many years and is free to all who want to participate. We have set the following rules to keep this place as helpful and enjoyable as possible. Please follow the rules below in all forums.
Forum Rules
-
Insulting other members Quote:
|
We take a very strong approach to abuse or insults toward other members. It doesn't matter what they say or do, do not call other members names or make insulting comments. This includes calling someone stupid, ignorant, dumb, or any derivative that can be deemed offensive. If you break this rule depending on the severity we may give you a 1 day ban, up to a permanent ban.

Swearing and bad language Quote:
|
We do not tolerate bad language on this forum. This includes all swear words. Most are bleeped out already so if you see some that aren't please send a moderator or myself a message.
|
-
No foreign languages Quote:
|
English is the only language acceptable on this forum. If English is not your first language or if you aren't the best at spelling, it is a good idea to run the post through a spell checker before you submit it.

Vague First Posts Quote:
|
A good question will get good answers. When creating a new thread you must provide as much relevant information to your question as possible. This is not a banning offence but your post maybe edited/removed if we believe there is not enough valuable content to allow other members to answer it. Before submitting your post, please proof read it to ensure that what you have said is what you meant to say.

-
Advertising or Spamming Quote:
|
Firstly, spamming is not allowed anywhere on this forum. If you get caught, you maybe instantly banned and the post(s) will be either edited or removed. We also do not allow advertising of your own sites, products or services until you have 25 quality posts or more. When you get 25 posts you can then add your site, product or service to your signature or discuss it within the forum. Please do not create a new post and advertise it. Please do not abuse this rule or it will be made tougher.
|
-
Signatures Quote:
|
Signatures can be setup from within your User CP and is shown at the bottom of every post you make. The text must be no more than 4 lines tall and be in a font size of 2 or smaller. You can use upto a maximum of 3 colors.
|
Reporting Offenses
If you see anyone abusing the rules then please click the Report Post button (please read
Reporting a Post for a guide). A moderator will review the post/user and then take appropriate action. Most commonly the post will be removed and the user will be warned or banned.
Do not reply to these posts! This just makes our job as moderators harder. When we remove the offending post, the thread becomes confusing by the references made to the removed post and therefore we have to clean them up too.
Report it, ignore it. Easy!
