ADMIN: READ ME - THIS FORUM - geek/talk: Web publishing business discussion

Steve_S · 09-13-2000, 10:28 AM

Hello members and visitors,

Thank you all for your valuable support and contributions. Almost all of you are a pleasure to host. Unfortunately, this Forum has recently experienced a high incidence of "abuse".

Our rules, which are available via the register link, prohibit any discussion related to cheating. Although some of you may find these discussions interesting, humorous, or informative, they are never permitted and trigger our "abuse procedures".

Our rules also state "...A "Member" will not use this Bulletin Board to bully, humiliate, denigrate, attack, and abuse another Member.." These actions will also trigger our "abuse procedures".

Our rules also state "...PLEASE DO NOT SPAM, ADVERTISE, OR ABUSE THIS BULLETIN BOARD. PLEASE DO NOT POST OR USE YOUR AFFILIATE LINK OR ANY PERSONS AFFILIATE LINK ANYWHERE ON THIS BB..." These actions will also trigger our "abuse procedures".

Almost all of our current members realize how hard we all work to maintain the integrity of our mainstream Webmaster centric Community. Collectively, your Administrators, Moderators, and consultants have over 100 years of experience in reading threads, interpreting honest mistakes, well intentioned questions or comments, tone, intent, and numerous other issues.

I'm confident that we can all continue to work together to maintain the high standards of behavior we have enjoyed for over two years. Good luck with your sites and thanks for your participation and support.

Almost all of you are a joy to host. I'm sorry to say this, but Abuse continues in this Forum and it's getting worse. YOUR community is moving in the wrong direction. YOU determine our destiny. YOU built it and YOU can also destroy it very quickly.

Please take a moment to ponder what we have at stake. Please read the rules BEFORE you post. If you need clarrification contact an Admin or Moderator BEFORE you post with your verbage.
