Now, now..Let's not be facetious..Would you drive the wrong way on a One Way Street?..I don't make the Rules, only enforce them.[sm=proof.gif]



Hummer Forums - Rules

Hummer Forums membership is diverse, covering people from various countries, backgrounds, ages and experiences. Considering this diversity and to make Hummer Forums enjoyable for the majority of our membership, we have adopted the following simple posting guidelines.

1.
Vulgar language, images and other offensive material including, but not limited to, race, nudity or pornography is not tolerated here. The Hummer Forums staff shall be the sole judges of what does and what does not violate the boards standards.

2.
While debating and discussion is fine, respect your fellow enthusiasts. Being of a diverse background, members are likely to express different opinions, and while opinions may differ from yours, they are just that, opinions; and everyone is entitled to express theirs freely. We will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, or personal attacks. Do not flame, bother, bug, disrespect, hound or taunt ANYONE on the forums or through private messaging or chat room. If we feel a thread is getting out of hand we will close or delete it. You can/will lose your posting privileges if you continue this type of behavior.

3.
"Trolls or Trolling", "Flames" and/or "Board Wars" are not tolerated here or elsewhere. Posts that taunt or are otherwise inflammatory against other sites will be removed. Also, anyone found to be making inflammatory posts and remarks on other forums (starting Flame/Board Wars) can and will loose their posting privileges here. This rule also applies to those that, for whatever reason, feel a need to post negative remarks about this site on other forums. If you do, don't expect to be welcome here.

4.
Double posting is not allowed and can result in the deletion of one or both posts. Double posting is defined as posting the same information in two or more separate forums. We understand that some topics might fit into more than one forum. Please try to pick the best one. In addition, please do not post in the same thread back to back (another version of double posting), if you have something more to add, edit your post, don't post twice in a row in a thread.

5.
Selling or solicitation of ANYTHING in the general forum, by Private Message or in Chat is considered Spam and is not allowed. Anyone found posting excessive links to their websites, or suspected of "sneaky" advertising will be warned and will possibly lose their posting privileges. Please post your private party ads in the Hummer Forums Classifieds forum sections. If you are a business and have a product or service that would be of interest to our members, visit our Advertising/Sponsorship page to learn how you can join our team and help support our community. We offer a variety of low-cost packages that can be of great benefit to your company.

6.
Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short), "smiley" only, non-sense posts and such. Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count ("post whoring") is frowned upon. If you do engage in this type of activity, we can prevent your post count from increasing from that point forward or possibly ban your account.

7.
No promotions of other related sites. There is no problem with occasionally using the name of other sites or even posting a link to a pertinent thread from another site, but repeatedly referring to other related sites is considered "SPAM" and is not allowed. Please have the decency of NOT putting links to them in your signature, profile or have a post, PM or Chat telling our members to come over to another related site. Such activity is ground for removal from signature, and repeated offenses are grounds for being banned.

8.
You are not allowed to post links that lead to an af

I assume the decision to all of a sudden enforce these rules was not yours so I was not directing this thread at you Dennis. If a boring question and answer only forum that gets 4 posts a day is what they want so be it......thats the rules.

And on the the other hand..If there was rampid lack of control..This forum could turn out to be a free for all BS flaming session and newcomers may shy away, not knowning that for the most part, it was all just harmless squabbling..But most of all, we don't want it turning into a forum like the "OTHERS" that foster rude behavior...

No one is saying not to have fun..So There!

I say if they shy away they are weak and probably should not be allowed to own a Hummer or post, in other words they should be cleansed from the system. But hey that's just me!!!

i don't think its a question of strong or weak or any of those. I don't know what drama may or may not have unfolded on this board, but plain and simple some web forums (including some other hummer forums) aren't worth joining because the level of conduct is simply ... not attractive. For example, i simply have no interest in hanging out with a bunch of people harassing newcomers and calling each other names and generally engaging in a deperate attempt to prove their manhood...

...if that makes me weak, at least its not so weak as to have to assault others on some faceless web forum to prove my "strength".

not aimed at you of course, just a general comment about how bickering/flaming/whining/pouting/competitive web forums are simply lame, and if i ran a forum i'd ban people for alot less than most moderators do, just to keep things on the up & up. At the end of the day, i think a forum that doesn't make me want to hide my hummer in a closet lest i be associated with such nonsense is a very good thing.

Let's get something clear, I was joking about about not being able to post and own. Please take a lot of my post with a grain of salt.

can someone show me these other forums that are apparently aweful. I have been to some others and the problem is low attendance.

I agree with both you (GB) and Importkiller. Part of the fun of this site is how a thread will start and then weave around off topic then go back. Does anyone here go to work and focus on work only and talk only about work. No, but this is an anonymous place and I think one of the few outlets for people to vent. I work in a conservative corporate environment and due to some hole in the system am able to access this site durig work hour. If I did not have this outlet I would want to scream. I think it important to understand people do not mean a lot of what they say here and are not the raving maniacs in public as they are in an anonymous forum. Having said that there is obviously a standard to maintain as things can quickly disintegrate into a bathroom/gay bashing rant.

The thought police need to chill or you will soon be all alone!!!
