General Rules
•While debating and discussion is fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, profanity (or attempts to bypass profanity filters), 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, visitor messages, blog comments, picture comments and private message systems to spam other members. •Please wait a reasonable amount of time before bumping posts. For style changes and 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 or links to sites that are sexual in nature or violate Clan{US}East Community standards. The Clan{US}East team shall be the sole arbitrator of what does and what does not violate community standards.
