Forum Rules

Posted: Fri Jun 02, 2006 7:31 pm

There are no strict rules in this forum, but I'd like to share a few pointers here.

General rules:

1. Please DO NOT use offensive words.
2. RESPECT personal opinions of others as there is freedom of speech.
3. DO NOT start topics that are sensitive (for instance, racism, pornography etc.).
4. Please DO NOT spam.

*The definition of spamming:
a) Posting a topic which does not relate to the section.
b) Posting a reply which does not relate to the topic.
c) Posting a message which only contains one word or one expression.

*Please bear in mind that any user who violated the rules above will receive a warning and will be banned if there is a second offence.

When posting a new topic:

1. The use of English is preferable.
2. State the genre of your topic at the "subject". For example, [Video] Behind the Scenes of MNIKSS.
3. As you might have noticed, there are different sections in this forum. Please post the topics accordingly. For example, a discussion about the relationship between Hyun Bin and Suna should be posted at Fans' Section > Hyun Bin & Suna, instead of Kim Suna > Discussions.
4. If you are posting materials from a certain source, please credit the person who originally provided the information.
5. When posting news article, please state the date of the news at the subject of the topic.

*The admin has the authority to edit or delete any post that did not go by the rules.

Thank you for your cooperation.

P/S: I will update the rules once in a while, so please check this section when you see an update.

When posting images:
1. If you are posting images from a source, please credit the source in your post.
2. Please do wait for someone to reply after submitting up to 5 posts containing images (because if you submitted too many posts in one row, you'll be considered as spamming. you can paste many images in ONE post, but please do not paste them separately).
3. Please check beforehand that the images you wish to post are not previously posted.
4. For an image which is larger than 800x600 pixels, please post it in thumbnails, so that it opens to a new window when you click on it. For instance, if you are using ImageShack, after uploading the image, copy "Thumbnails for forums (1)" and paste.
Example:

When posting a news article:
1. Please state the date of the news at the "subject". The subject should also be able to give readers a general idea about the contents.
2. Credit the source of your information.
3. Related pics can be posted in the article (there is no need of posting the pics seperately in the Photo Gallery, unless it is a collection of pictures).

When posting video/audio links:
1. State the genre and the date at the subject (it is not necessary to state the date if you are unsure of it). For example, [Video]Kim Sam Soon Press Conference in Japan (06/21). If you are requesting for a video/audio download, please state [Request] at the subject.
2. Credit the source of your video/audio link (unless you own the copyright, or if you are unsure of it).

ATTENTION PLEASE!

Because of the recent argument I saw in the other sites, I have to add one more rule for the time being, as a precaution:

Please DO NOT upload any videos in this site to any online video sharing community (e.g. YouTube).
Users who are found violating this rule might be banned from this forum.

Sorry for any inconvenience caused.

p/s: it's only for the time being......until i could confirm something myself....ok?

p/p/s: if there r questions regarding this topic, please post a new topic in Forum Guide.

Recently, I found quite some spam advertisements in this forum, therefore I decided to post a new rule regarding this topic.

1. NO advertisement of any product in any form is allowed. If you wish to advertise a website, please ask for my permission by sending a private message.

2. Please DO NOT REPLY to topics that are considered as spam advertisement, i.e. topics which sell products and are not related to the objective/purpose of this forum. Instead, send a PM to inform me about the spam.

Any question regarding this new rule, please post a new topic in Forum Guide.
