Welcome to the boards of the Creedy Defense Force, also known as [CDF]. We figure that we want to give everyone a chance to voice their opinions, or just have a place to crash, so this is where to do it. I do ask you to follow a couple simple rules:
Remember, we are allowing you to use our boards free of charge. We ask nothing in return besides you being respectful to all CDF, members, staff and our guests. Enjoy your stay.
- These are not your boards. Please do not act as if they are.
- Flaming/Baiting here is not tolerated. It's not funny or cute. It gets your IP banned. (Flaming is any comment made to make fun of/taunt/slam another member. Baiting is trying to get someone to argue with you, more or less.)
- Try to keep swearing to a minimum. I understand that it may slip sometimes, but do your best to be civilized. You only get one Mod warning, then you're banned. Racism and/or sexism gets an automatic ban with no warning. So don't do it.
- Do your best to make your posts readable and on topic. No "C U L8r" either. Spellcheck is your friend.
- Absolutely NO RECRUITING on our forums from other groups (including allies). This forum is owned and operated by CDF members. It is our base of operations for all recruiting, rosters, operations, etc. If you want to recruit, go to a more public forum. Punishment could be anywhere from a slap on the wrist, to a permaban.
- Nothing that violates the Proboards Terms of Service. You all "should" have read it when you agreed to it after signing up. Mainly, don't post porn (kiddie porn will get the authorities involved), or anything that seems to be illegal in the U.S. If you're not sure, ask yourself: "Would I show this to my grandmother?" And unless your grandma is weird/sex addict/hippie, I'm sure you can figure out what is acceptable behavior.
- Don't argue with a Moderator or Admin. If they ask you to do something, please do it. They are not out to "get" you. Mods can use their own discretion as to whether or not they want to ban you. So don't be an asshole.
- Oh, and if you get a warning/ban and do something to avoid it (like making another account), both accounts will be permabanned. Just do your time, and come back civil.
Remember, we are allowing you to use our boards free of charge. We ask nothing in return besides you being respectful to all CDF, members, staff and our guests. Enjoy your stay.
