LinuxForums Rules

Everyone involved tries hard to keep Linux Forums(LF) free of trolls, spam, flames, etc and keep LF a positive place to discuss Linux and other things, while at the same time trying to maintain the balance of an open and fairly non-restrictive community. Obviously as a publicly-accessible community we have guidelines of what is acceptable and what is not so that we remain just that - a happy, vibrant community.

1. No personal attacks
2. No bashing or trolling
3. No religion/political posts
4. No homework questions
5. No posts regarding illegal activities (cracking, warez, etc)
6. No spam, affiliate links, or double-posting/cross-posting. Spammers will be banned immediately.
7. Posts and Signatures must be in English
8. Posts, Avatars, and Signatures deemed distracting or inappropriate may be removed without notice.

Interpretation of these rules is at the sole discretion of the moderator and all decisions are final. If you have a concern or would like clarification of any of these rules, please contact a moderator via PM, or in the case of a ban use the contact form on the main page of the forum.

* Please note that these rules may change without prior notice.

All new members are encouraged to read this thread and the Forum Etiquette post below before beginning to post.
