Forum Rules

[JEM]

It seems that not everybody knows the forum rules at the moment the forum rules are:
1. While we promote debating and discussion, we will not tolerate rudeness, defamatory or insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Our decision in these matters will be final.
2. Discussion of illegal activities such as software and music piracy and other intellectual property violations or posts that infringe any patent, trademark, copyright, trade secrets or proprietary right(s) of any party are not allowed.
3. We do not allow posts that are sexual in nature or violate TeenLit community standards. The TeenLit team shall be the sole arbitrator of what does and what does not violate community standards.
4.Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed.
5. Participants may not use the Forum for commercial gain.
6. Participants may not use the Forum to direct others to any pages which they have commercial interests in; these include commission or referral hyperlinks.
7. Participants may not create duplicate threads (cross-posting) or direct others to threads they have started.
8. Members may not impersonate, or attempt to TeenLit.com staff or Community Leaders
9. Participants may not bump threads. Bumping can refer to posting useless information, making corrections or updates in a new post, posting one-liners or any other action to deliberately keep a thread hot or to bring it to the top of its Thread. Community Leaders will use their discretion, depending on the nature of the post, as to whether to take action or not.
10. Participants may not post URLs or words that are censored by adding spaces, dots, or substituting characters; or by any other means in an attempt to defeat the censors put in place by TeenLit.com
11. We reserve the right to remove or edit offensive posts without notice
12. Participants may not post email addresses, screen names, or any other method of contact. Such information should be set up in your profile, or communicated to another member via the Private Message (PM) or Email feature.
13. We have the ability to remove objectionable content and we will make every effort to do so, within a reasonable time frame, if we determine that removal is necessary. You agree that you will not use this site to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise in violation of any law.
