Board FAQ - ToS, TechSpecs, Chatroom, Karma, etc
Most of our rules are basically common sense, courtesy and the Proboards T.O.C
HOWEVER. We will NOT Tollerate the following
1. Alt Ids. There is NO reason for this, unless your you do not receive your login when you sign up. If you loose your password and can not reset it then contact us and we will reset it.
If you wish to change your name you can edit your profile.
We reserve the right to remove an account or ban any user with Alt IDs without warning.
So for now the rules are here
www.proboards.com/Information-Terms_of_Service.html
basically proboards Terms and Conditions that you all agreed to anyway
The main part to read is this
3. CONTENT RESTRICTIONS

Other than that please stick to common sense.
From this we refer to sig size and the like.
Oh for advertising for now please don't advertise classifies until the classifies board is back up.
one last rule and the most important one HAVE FUN
We want to try to get things back to the fun, trouble free, everyone having a good time that it use to be. SO the mods will be more relaxed as its been a stressful time for them over the last few months and we will too.
Questions and answers:
Q1 - What about political topics?
Like Religion, Politics was never banned on the board, it was only discouraged (as it discussions tend to end in arguments).
Q2 - Are any topics banned?
Beyond those mentioned in the TOS itself? No.
The only topics which have ever been banned (Thats I remember anyway) were discussions about the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq and they were/are such emotive subjects.
