Himachal Forum

[Admin]

The following are a general list of forum rules. We ask that you read these rules before posting in the HimachalOnline forums. In addition, some individual forums on WebProWorld also have their own rules specific to that forum, which should also be read before posting. If you have any questions or problems, please feel free to contact one of the Staff Members.

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.
  

• Do NOT drag another member's personal site into a forum discussion unless the discussion directly involves that site OR if the member brings his or her own site into the discussion first. There's no point in ruining a good debate by accidentally (or intentionally) offending someone with a personal comment.
  

• DO NOT POST PORN or adult content. This also inludes sites promoting activities such as drug abuse, gambling and links to sites containing such content.
  

• Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed
  We reserve the right to remove offensive posts without notice.
  

• We also reserve the right to ban anyone who willfully violates the forum rules.
  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.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 in sigs is also prohibited.


Links in signatures

Links in signatures must follow these guidelines:

• 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. The Megrsioft 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.
  

• No links in your signature that point to websites that are either under construction, useless adspace plastered websites or promote spamming of any kind, such as bulk emailing, millions of hits
  Promotional text for a commercial product or service is ok, provided there are no price(s) of product(s) or service(s) listed.
  

• No more than 2 links per signature
  

Signature Size Limits

• All signatures should not exceed the following size limits, and you can't have both text and images
  For text signatures: Maximum size is 100 characters
  For images in signatures: 1 image up to 300 pixels wide, 125 pixels tall and 20k in size
  

• Animated images in sigs are not allowed
  

Multiple Posts

• DO NOT post the same topic in multiple forums. If you are unsure of which forum a thread should go under, just state that in your post, and a moderator will move the thread to the correct forum. Multiple posts are unnecessary and will be deleted.
  

• DO NOT post the same question multiple times in multiple threads in the same forum. If no one responds to your question or request, just post a reply to the same message thread again to bring the message to the top of the list so folks notice it.
  

Our SPAM Policy

• Please make sure that you are posting for the good of the community, not just for the sake of self-promotion
  

• Please refrain from posting affiliate links and press releases in our forums.
  

• Surveys are not allowed, unless you have been given permission in advance from a Site Admin
  

• Do NOT use the HimachalOnline community for the purpose of 'spam' or excessive advertisements! This includes forum posts, private messages, or emails to other WebProworld members

• If we find that you are spamming our community, you will be warned by a Moderator or Site Admin, and it may lead to the deletion of your posts and/or the removal of your HimachalOnline account
  

Forum Abuse Policy:

• 1st Offense - A polite Private Message from a Moderator pointing out the Forum Rules, in addition to the editing or deletion of the post
  

• 2nd Offense - Public warning on the message board plus deletion of post
  

• 3rd Offense - Moderators will discuss and possibly delete the user from the HimachalOnline forum
  

The pub

• The Pub forum is where Himachal Online members Talk about what's on your mind with other likeminded individuals about anything. If you have a question that doesn't fit into any other forum, or just want to chat, this is the place.
