1. Do not misquote other Members.
2. Every post in the main sections MUST mostly address the topic, and if that happens, some personal abuse in that same post is okay. Posts in the main sections which are not mainly addressing the topic but rather are mostly about abusing a Member may not be be made.
3. A metre is given in regards to 'fun' sledging of others, argumentive attacks/defends and insults flying. Shit happens.
4. A mile is not given to relentless harassment, repetitious behaviour, stalking, and 'extreme' Trolling behaviours.
THE POSTING OF PERSONAL/PRIVATE MESSAGES.
As of March 2024: personal/private messages CAN NOT be posted in Public sight. PM's are to remain as PM's and privacy is to be respected. This is what PM's are for. Any member found posting publicly upon an open Forum will be permanently banned via EL only.
Regardless of a PM's contents being a deciding factor in a discussion or argument as 'evidence' to contradict a denial, lie or mistake of another Member's argument/discussion. The Contents of anyone's PM's must remain 'private'. All PM's are banned from being held in Public Member's posts and topics. This includes Hidden Sections from outside the Forum viewing.
Of course, this EL will take into consideration of proven 'mistakes' (1 strike rule, not 3) if that be the case - but a shorter, non-permanent ban must still be put in place regardless... with an apology to the Member it was used against and/or the Member who originated the PM being used to break such ruling.
