Mandriva Users Board Posting Guidelines

 

1.0 INTRO:

1.1 The mission of the Mandriva Users Board is to provide a Linux help board, by providing expert assistance, furthering personal knowledge of Linux, and providing a community to relate to other Linux users.

 

2.0 POLICY:

2.1 You agree, through your use of this Forum, to obey the following policy as set forth by this board's administration. Failure to do so may result in your account being suspended and your service provider being informed. In severe cases, the suspension will be permanent.

2.2 You agree not to post any abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, racist, hateful, threatening, sexually-orientated or similar material.

2.3 You agree not to post any material which is knowingly false, inaccurate, and/or defamatory.

2.4 Personal attacks, harassment, or behaviour which invades another member's privacy will not be tolerated.

2.5 Political or religious debates are permitted only in the OTW forum. Membership by request of an administrator. The general board does not allow debates on such subjects, unless it is related to Linux.

2.6 You agree not to post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or by this forum.

2.7 Posting of direct links to executable software is forbidden. You must post a link to a web page that provides a link to the download. Special arrangements may be worked out with a moderator/admin.

2.7a. Any member uploading illegal, commercial (not free), or malicious binary or rpm packages, that could cause harm to a user's system, will be permanently banned.

2.8 Rudeness, argumentive or childish behavior toward a moderator/admin will result in your account being suspended pending review.

2.9 Spam, self promotion, or other forms of personal or commercial solicitation is not allowed, unless related to the promotion of Mandriva or this board.

 

3.0 ETIQUETTE:

3.1 The guidelines of this board apply to all posts on the board, whichever forum they are in. Please adhere to them.

3.2 Debates should be limited to one or two points for discussion. More than this in one topic creates confusion and misunderstandings.

3.3 Any time a topic begins to get repetitive, the thread may be considered to have run its course and be reviewed for possible closure.

3.4 Points arising from a discussion that warrant their own treatment should be the start of a different thread.

3.5 Off Topic and OTW are places for our members to ask questions of one another and to get to know one another. Have fun!

3.6 If a thread has been locked or removed, please do not start another one on the same topic.

3.7 Any user who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to contact a moderator immediately by personal message (PM).

3.8 Above all, stay on topic and adhere to any ground rules set forth by the topic starter.
