In order to keep the forums running well and to prevent problems, please follow these simple rules for the forums here. If you have any questions or problems, please feel free to contact one of the Mod Team Members.
First and foremost : c0ldfyr3 is the HIGHEST authority on these forums. what he says cannot be argued against. What he does must be accepted. Remember access to these forums is a privilege not a right.
General Rules:
* While debating and discussion is fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Our decision is final in these matters.
* Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short) non-sense posts, or the such.
* Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed.
* Advertising, spamming and trolling is not allowed. This includes using the forum email and Private message system to spam other members.
* Please wait a reasonable amount of time before bumping posts. For general 'how-to' questions this should be 24 hours. For specific troubleshooting issues, use 12 hours as a guideline.
* We also do not allow posts that are sexual in nature or violate our community standards. The Zombiemod Mod team shall be the arbitrators of what does and what does not violate community standards, with C0ldfyr3 being the highest authority on any such matter.
* Discussion of illegal activities such as software and music piracy and other intellectual property violations are not allowed.
* Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed.
* While we are quite happy to have constructive comparative conversations about other CSS/HL2 mods, we will not tolerate blatant adverts or the sort of 'ooh look, yet another New cool CSS/HL2 Mod' threads. Also, we would appreciate it if you refrain from blatant bashing of other Mods.
* We reserve the right to remove offensive posts without notice.
* If you are going to post non-English on these forums, please also post an English Translation of your post unless you are posting in a language specific portion..
* Also while these rules cover most common situations, they cannot anticipate everything. Consequently we reserve the right to take any actions we deem appropriate to ensure these forums are not disrupted or abused in any way.
* You cannot post any affiliate or referral links, or post anything asking for a referral. Such posts will be subject to removal and the user posting such material subject to a warning.
* You cannot post advertisements or notices for contests unless ok'd by C0ldfyr3.
* We also reserve the right to ban anyone who willfully violates the forum rules, as access to our support forums are a privilege and not a right. This Mod is free, C0ldfyr3 doesn't make money off this product, the mods don't get paid for their duties, don't take things for granted
Any threads/posts of these types will be deleted.
Advertising Services
We do not allow people to post threads or to send private messages or emails to users here that advertise or solicit any products or services. Explicit advertising and solicitating in sigs is also prohibited.
Links in Sigs
Links in signatures must follow these guidelines:
* Links MUST be tasteful and decent. We don't condone links that are overly distracting from the posts, overly flashy etc. use your best judgment, however short it might be for some of you
* Promotional text for a commercial product or service is ok, provided there are no price(s) of product(s) or service(s) listed and NO REFFERAL LINKS.
* A link and promotional text for a site that is not commercial and does not contain product(s) and/or service(s) is allowed, provided the site is not sexual or does not violate ZombieMod community standards. The ZombieMod mod team shall be the sole arbitrator of what does and what does not violate community standards. (Examples include sites about drugs and/or sex.)
* Duplicate links to the same URL in a sig are not allowed.
Avatars
Avatars should basically follow same as Signature rules.
