While using the this forum, you WILL:
1. Respect the site, staff, and members.
2. Refrain from posting messages that are obscene, hateful, threatening, or are otherwise of questionable content.
3. Help maintain a fun and friendly atmosphere by using your best judgment and granting people the benefit of the doubt when taking place in discussions.
4. Positively contribute to the forums with useful posts and information relevant to the section being posted under.
5. Read the stickied threads in various sections. They have been stickied because they will answer commonly asked questions or are otherwise very helpful.
6. Refrain from needless swearing. There is an appropriate time and place for strong language, know how to use it or do not use it at all.
7. Search the forums before creating a new thread. Most likely your question has already been answered many times over. It is better to post in an old thread which matches than to create a new one.
8. Use descriptive and appropriate titles when creating a thread. Titles such as, “Help!” “OMG WHAT DO I DO!!?1?@” and “L4m3rS Ar3 5tup1D…” will not generate helpful responses, and ultimately cause more work for users trying to find threads on a given topic.
9. Post new threads in the most suitable section. Read the section descriptions before starting a thread to ensure you are posting in the right place.
10. Use proper spelling, grammar, punctuation, and capitalization to the best of your ability. Failure to do this will result in your posts being taken less seriously, and most likely cause responses to be less than constructive.
11. Obey the forum moderators and administrators. If your thread is closed, moved, or deleted for any reason, take up the issue with the mod or admin via private messages. Remember, however, that these rules are enforced and imposed upon our discretion.
12. Use the Edit button to make spelling corrections, add information, or otherwise change your posts. Duplicate posting only serves to further muddle up threads with more posts than are necessary.
13. Post "stacking" or "bumping" is generally discouraged. If no one cared the first time, they probably won't care the second and third times.
14. Help other members assist you with your problem by posting all relevant information about the problem you are experiencing. The more information you provide, the more likely you will get a helpful response.
15. Never engage in personal attacks. Ever.
16. Plagiarism is not cool. If you find something funny on the vastness of the internets and wish to share it with your fellow bf2s forum goer, GIVE THE ORIGINAL AUTHOR/ARTIST CREDIT! This is a serious offense that will no longer be tolerated.
