#1 and most important, this is an open site to outside viewers and guests. It is for anyone to join and the type members we want are members that will regularly post in their forum of expertise, as well as invite like minded members to join. We will not be inviting people in here just to increase the numbers. We want participants, not sponsors, so please don't sign up and forget about us. If you have friends that are interested in the same as you then feel free to invite them in, just send us a private message in advance so we know who they are.
No sexually explicit material of any kind; This means if you're a parent of a small child would you want them looking at it? reading it? or if you don't have kids try to be mindful of the ones that do, etc.
No harassment, defamation or libel of any members of this board, or members, admin or mods of any other board; This includes but is not limited to name calling, racist remarks, hacking accounts, derogatory or inflammatory remarks, etc. Should a problem with a member arise resolve it in PM's with that member or a moderator. If it is taken to the open board you will incur infractions or be banned. Don't come over here airing out your hurt feelings about another board somewhere else. We'll simply delete those posts, put your big girl panties on and deal with it. All are welcome here and will be treated with respect, including someone you may not like from another site. Can't we all just get along?
No cussing or use of foul language; Some acronyms will be allowed, as well as some typing around the censor (TAC) as long as the TAC or acronym is not of a sexual nature.
No copyright violations; This includes all copyrighted material / articles / pictures found on the WWW. Links to copyrighted material is acceptable, but you must not copy and paste the actual material in part or whole on this site.
Unless a post is located under "Waders and Wanderers" it will be considered ON TOPIC and any derailing or hijacking is frowned upon. Can't we all just get along?
Swap n Sell forums in all categories: All sales or trades are between you and the buyer / seller. Mods and Admins will not effect any part of a sale / trade other than to enforce the rules as stated and as they related to participation on this board. Once you have sold or traded an item please make a post in your thread labelled "SOLD" so we may lock the thread. No more than 3 posts for items for sale in any one category at a time. It is advisable that you put as much information as possible along with pictures in your post, but not mandatory. Only questions and answers regarding the item for sale or the transaction are allowed in the thread. Needless banter will be deleted. Can't we all just get along?
There will never be the following forums: Sports, Political or Spiritual. If you wish to request prayers for a person or such content that is perfectly acceptable, however there will not be any debate about religion allowed. If you wish to support your team through your avatar or a casual post mentioning a specific game that is fine, but there will be no debates or regular posts or threads about sports other than the ones already listed within the forums. If you wish to post legislation that directly effects hunting or fishing or other categories already founded on this site that is fine, but there will be no open debate or discussion of political topics of any kind outside of what is allowed. Can't we all just get along?
No exceptions will be made to any of these rules. If you think it may be borderline then don't do it. If you have a problem with intellectual honesty when confronted by a moderator regarding any rules violation, arguing isn't advised. We have the buttons to make your posts go away, but really don't want to use them. Can't we all just get along?
