Linux Forums Rules

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, bashing of others, or trolling
2. No religious or political posts, and no homework questions
3. No posts regarding illegal activities (cracking, warez, etc)
4. No spam, or affiliate links (spammers are banned immediately)
5. No double-posting, cross-posting, or redirects
6. Animated images are not permitted in Avatars or Signatures
7. All parts of Posts, Signatures, and Avatars (with wording) must be in English
8. Posts, Avatars, and Signatures deemed to be overly distracting, inappropriate, or spam oriented 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.

New members should read the "All New Users Read This First" thread and the "Forum Etiquette" post below before beginning to post.

Forum Etiquette (Simplified)

Search the forums and search engines for solutions first.
Post all threads in the proper forum for the subject matter.
Be descriptive of any Linux support issues in all thread titles.
Don't PM other members with Linux support requests... post them in the forums.
Don't cross/double post the same topic into multiple forums.
Don't hijack threads started by other members for your own use.
Don't post in leet (Leet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia).
Don't post in all caps, bold, gigantic, or colored text unless really necessary.
Don't revive or raise (bump) very old threads back to the top.
Don't troll or post flame bait, and don't respond to those that do so.

When in doubt, always ask one of the board administrators.
