Forum Etiquette

In addition to the No soliciting rule above, it is considered very poor form to PM staff
asking for help in the admin panel, or to help setting up your own group, or asking for 
coding for posts.   Do not ask, you will be ignored
Do not copy or steal anything from the group.

Please remember that we are all individuals from all over the globe.  We have all been raised with different morals, religions, opinions and senses of humour.  
Not everyone has the same standards you do.

If you see something you dont like or disagree with, just pass on by and dont let it impact your day.
You just dont know what that person on the other side of the screen is going through in their life.

That being said, if you see something that is clearly offensive to the majority please PM a staff member
DO NOT respond to it, just PM a staff member and one of us will have the offensive item removed as soon as possible


Please remember also that every group is different.
Do not ask us to change things to suit you just because other groups do it differently
we do things our way because they work for us.
