WELCOME TO RANDOM TALK! 
For us to keep peace and order on the forum, the following rules are established. Please read them and follow them closely. No rule is stricter than the ones you have at school or work. Rules are always updated with notice given to you about the update(s).
Thank you,
-RT Staff
POST- I will allow anyone to post on the forum. They may post almost anything they want. Some things that I don't want to see posted are racial comments, sexual comments, pornographic links or images and Spam. Moderators have the right and are encouraged by me to edit, delete, and move post if it is needed. Please refrain from using "GLOW" text. It is hard to read and we will let you off with a warning if you use it for whole messages.
CONSEQUENCES- If I or the moderators catch you doing any of these illegal actions, depending on the case, you could first be warned. The second time could cause in the ban of you from the site. If you post pornographic links or images you will be immediately banned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSULTS- If someone makes fun of your post, deal with it, there's nothing I can do, but go ahead and give that person a really hard time for all I care. On the other hand, insults directed to someone personally should not be reported to me or another moderator.
CONSEQUENCES- There are none, but if the insult is directly related personally to another user consequences could be from a warning to being banned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROFANITY- I have a slight problem with you using profanity. If you do use it, please keep it to a minimum. There are people who despise it and would like it not used. So in that case, again, keep it to a minimum. The really bad guys will just have "*" over them. Just keep it clean!
CONSEQUENCES- I highly doubt that I would do much more than warn you if you get out of control with your profanity usage, but then again, if it is too out of control I could think of you being banned. So please, please keep your use of profanity to a low level.
IMAGES- Ok, here's the rule that I want read by everyone. I don't care if you post pictures of users, non-users, celebrities, or yourself, but I DO NOT want you to post images that contain pornographic nature or illegal material.
CONSEQUENCES- If I or the other moderators see this you will be immediately banned with no warning. This is unacceptable. I will not have any form of that on this site.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LINKS- Along with images, no links are to be posted of porn or illegal material.
CONSEQUENCES- Again same as images. If I or other moderators see that you have post any form of this material you will be banned immediately.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SIGNATURES- Signature are only 300 characters so they won't or shouldn't be too long. One thing that could go wrong, inappropriate signatures. There will be no tolerance for this.
CONSEQUENCES- Depending on the situation, I will first warn you and then on the second offense you could be banned from the site. We also reserve the right to change them our selves if we wish.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PRIVATE MESSAGES (PM)- I have no rule over these, but if I or another moderator gets notified that another user as said or done something against the board rules then further action will be taken.
CONSEQUENCES- As every other consequence, the first time you will be warned and on the second time you could be banned.
UPDATE: Any user who spams will get a warning and will have the PM function disabled for them.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Member Boards- ANY member that violates these rules on member boards, can and will get their account BANNED! No Warning!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Flaming- This is absolutely not allowed! For those who don’t know what flaming is, it is making fun, insulting, etc… through computers or in person.
Consequences- You will get a warning with a PM. If you do it again, you will be banned.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Illegal Materials- DO NOT EVER POST SUCH ITEMS! This board could get deleted.
Consequences- You won't be banned or get a warning, YOU WILL GET DELETED AND YOUR IP WILL BE BANNED!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If there is any questions about the rules you can e-mail, aim, or send me a private message with your questions. Thanks for joining and happy postings.
