Mobile Phone Chat Rules and Housekeeping

[+Kardboard+]

Howdy.

Welcome to the Mobile Phone Chat forum! We like to keep things fun and the threads useful here, so there are a few rules that we ask you to respect in order to keep things good here. Capish?

General Rules:
There is a "Search" Box
Please don't make re-posts or multiple threads on existing and related topics! Take a quick peek at the first page of threads to see if the subject's already been covered first. Then, scroll to the bottom of the page. See that in the lower-right corner? It's a Search box. Do use it!

We're Here to Help
That being said, don't hold back on asking your questions if they haven't been addressed already. We're all here to have fun and maybe learn a few things about mobile devices, so if you've got a question, we encourage you to share it!

Spam is Evil
REVscene is made possible by our generous sponsors. If you're directly/consistently promoting a store or a vendor that ain't a sponsor, then you're spamming. On a related note, anything that gives the poster some sort of reward from people clicking a link, getting a cut from the sale, etc., is not allowed. That also constitutes spamming. Spammers aren't welcome here.

De-constructive Posts
You got some beef with another RS member? Don't take it here. There's something called Fight Club here and there's also something else called "the real world". Don't sort it out or fight in a space that doesn't belong to you or me, but to the community. It's just ugly. Want to complain about a manufacturer, store, or service provider? That's OK, as long as it's not so much that it becomes an annoyance. Have some courage and take it to their face!

Bad People Have this Coming:
Thread/Post Removed
Simply put, it'll disappear. Bye-bye.

Thread Locked
If things start to get out of hand in a thread but there's still some useful info earlier on in there, this is what happens.

Thread/Post Edited
Play nice, or I will Shakespeare-fy your post and attempt to make you look like a complete moron. Just kidding. Seriously though, bad posts will be edited, so keep things clean.

Ban
You are so evil that you need to be expelled. 'Nuff said. Kthxbai.

Got Questions?
Well it doesn't get more basic & clear. If there are questions or if somebody is unsure about something, PLEASE PM (private messaging) a moderator and ask! If a topic of discussion needs to be done which requires the compromising of one of the rules, PLEASE USE PM to communicate. Don't post it for the whole world to see!

In general, use common sense. That's all for now. Happy posting, you phone geeks!
