MEDIADOMAIN Discussion Group Guidelines:
- Topics can be created by anyone.
- Topics must be relevant to the forum.
- Anyone can reply or leave a message to a topic.
- The number of topics are cut to 100 or 80 topics each morning. This
is an automatic (computer) process of editing, where the older "topics" are
deleted each
day. Any message posted on a topic that has been deleted is also removed (even
if the message was posted the same day). Topics are cut to 100 or 80
every morning, the period of time a topic remains on the board, depends on
how many new posts there are during the day. We STRONGLY recommend that
posters try not to duplicate topics during the day.
- Please refrain from using ALL CAPS, It is difficult to read and rude.
- Use of rude or vulgar language is forbidden.
- Flamming of posters, fighting and bad attitudes will not be tolerated.
- Personal chat not pertaining to the site topics are rude to others,
please refrain from doing so.
If personal messages become necessary please use a single topic and
post responses to this particular topic ONLY.
- Email addresses are not mandatory... but can be useful for personal
contact regarding the site or other issues.
- You may use HTML in your posts, with the exception of header and font
size tags.
- Be aware that images take time to load. Most posters prefer not
to view images on this site. Some poster have lightweight computers or
are viewing from work and have limited time.
Please note in the topic if an image is included in the post.
Please refrain from "showing off".
Photo's from other websites should be referenced by giving the URL
for the site.
This way posters can choose to view or not to view without missing posts.
- Please keep topic names as short as possible.. You may enter additional
comments when you enter your message.
