These are the official rules for the Team Binko fan-forum. By posting as a user, you agree to abide by the rules below. If you have questions regarding the rules, feel free to message Admin.
=====================================
Registering: One registered username PER PERSON. If you are not satisfied with your username, the ability to change it is available in your control panel. The Team Binko fan-forum does not require a specific amount of activity from anyone, you will not be banned for inactivity. Feel free to login and post whenever you like.
===================================== Posts:
Team Binko moderators reserve the right to delete / edit any comments that are found inappropriate (ie: crude language, pornographic / nude photos, spam etc...). We encourage you to express your opinions and thoughts, but not at the expense of others well-being.
User generated content may be deleted, modified, and reproduced (without consent or compensation) at the sole discretion of Steven Binko and stevenbinko.com. By posting, you are agreeing to these terms.
=====================================
Posts: Bumping / Spamming:
"Bumping" a thread simply means commenting in a topic that is relatively old. When you comment a topic, it bumps the entire thread to the top of the forum. Bumping a thread that is more than FOUR weeks old is prohibited as it causes the forum to get messy, outdated and confusing. Any user bumping a thread will have their IP address recorded - second-time offenders will be banned from viewing the forum.
Spamming is also prohibited. If a user posts non-sense, images/words multiple times in one thread, repeats characters (ie zzzzzzxjsdfiwerew) etc, they will be banned.
Nudity, explicit content, or threatening language is not allowed and will result in a first-offense ban (no questions asked).
=====================================
Member conduct:
While we allow various mature topics to be discussed, please keep in mind that there are still visitors under age, so please keep posts within reason. There is no censorship for vulgar words, but please refrain as much as you can.
Do not personally attack other members. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Team Binko does its best to remain a drama free and comfortable atmosphere (sometimes it's inevitable), so if you have any problems with a member you should contact them privately to discuss the matter or contact the Admin.
=====================================
About dealing with the staff: The staff are here to make your stay comfortable and help out when needed, so please try to be nice and respectful when dealing with any staff member. If you have an issue with any of the Admin or Moderators, please avoid making public hateful threads. You may utilize the site contact for these concerns.
===================================== About reporting: It is encouraged to report rule breakers, however please try to not abuse the report button and don't report anything unless it's actually worth reporting (racist, porn/nudity, homophobic and such posts). Abuse of the report button may result in a perma-ban. Rules are subject to change - and will be updated accordingly.
