[porkchop]

Here we go again. Please skim through these, they're important. They help keep this place fun, clean, and safe.

Rules & Regulations

1. Registering onto the forum with the sole purpose of bashing the Oklahoma City Thunder will lead to a swift ban without warning. Fans of other teams are more than welcome to join, but only for intelligent basketball discussion.

2. Using profanity is not allowed and will result in your post being edited or deleted. This includes trying to bypass our filter in any way.

3. Post messages in the correct forum. They're there for a reason. Off-topic posts will be moved to their correct forum or deleted altogether.

4. Generally offensive posts will be removed immediately. This includes things like racism, sexist comments, and sexual humor.

5. No "heated topics". Specifically, religion or politics talk. This is a basketball forum, there's a place for that stuff elsewhere.

6. Do not personally attack any other member. Well thought out counterpoints are more effective and contribute more to the community.

7. Inciting fights will not be tolerated.

8. Advertising or soliciting people to other web sites is not permitted. (this includes advertising through personal messages)

9. Do not slander, insult or post personal rumors against any player, manager or coach or any other Thunder employee. Keep it respectful.

10. Do not post copyrighted material such as newspaper or web articles without a link. All reports and rumors must be cited with a credible source (Note: RealGM or any other Forum or Message board is not a reliable source.)

11. Spam will not be tolerated. Purposely filling the message board with senseless or unnecessary posts is an annoyance to all members. This includes posts of the "me too" variety as well as posting duplicate topics and cross-posting one topic to multiple forums. If it has already been said, or if the thread does not benefit from your saying it - don't.

12. There are new sig limitations in place. Signature pictures are limited to a combined file size of 200KB and a size of 290 x 600. Also please make sure that your sigs are clean and appropriate for all ages. Maximum 5 links per sig, and no video embedding is allowed. Lastly, there is not to be any ads in signatures whatsoever.

13. Users are permitted one account per IP address or household.

14. Absolutely no gambling using this forum.

15. Posting personal information about any user on this forum is prohibited.

16. We work on a 3 strike basis: First time you're warned, second time you're temp banned, last time you're gone. Notice, under certain circumstances you may be banned outright.

17. The Registration Agreement Terms you agreed to before registering applies in addition to the above rules. Ignorance of both is not an excuse.
