Rules & Guidelines

(For further inquiries and information please refer to the Privacy Policy.)

** All members and guests are responsible for reading, knowing and following the information contained in the following rules and guidelines.

A7XfanBen reserves the right, but does not assume the responsibility, to restrict communications in the form of posting and e-mails, which A7XfanBen deems to be harmful to members, guests, or this site.

A7XfanBen does have free forums and has placed these forums on the site for member’s usage. A7XfanBen wishes all members to enjoy the forums, but with a few rules to follow:

Prohibited Behavior (Forum):

• Spamming.
• Flaming.
• Vulgar or rude language (e.g. racial, ethnic, sexist or religious)
• Profanity or the “masking” of profanity, using alternative spelling, letters or spaces to get past the site’s profanity filters (e.g. kizmyazz).
• Posting any sexually explicit material or any discussion of sexually explicit material.
• Solicitation of any kind.
• Posting of personal information with the intent to hurt, humiliate or embarrass.
• Creating multiple accounts.

-When you post a link, go to Link options and hit the checkbox for “Open link in a new tab”.

-Forum Topic Tags should only be used once per thread by the creator of the thread.  Do not add Topic Tags in a reply.

-Use the Non-eBay Sales and Trades Thread for buy/sell/trade purposes not involving eBay.  The eBay Sales thread is used for eBay buying and selling.

Any violation of the above forum rules will be sufficient cause for A7XfanBen or the moderation team to take action against the violator. Those actions can be in the form of a warning up to and including removal from the site.

If you run across any offending content, please report it immediately by emailing A7XfanBen at a7xfanben@gmail.com.  You can also message the moderators: Woelf, Xerecs, Artisturn, and Captain Randy

YOU are responsible for your conduct. You may be asked to remove your posting that is viewed as harmful to this site. If the removal does not occur in a timely fashion it will be viewed as a denial to correct and the posting as well as you will be removed from the site.

Also, as a tip: always check the box for “Notify me of follow-up replies via email” so you can keep up on threads and responses.

To reduce spam from bots and nefarious actors, a new member’s first forum post must be approved by me. This is why you may not see your first post appear immediately; it goes into a queue where I will review it and likely approve it.

Thanks!

It’s great that bbpress comes with the option for adding pictures to forum posts, but I’ve had a few people ask me how to add pictures to forum posts.

At the far right of the Visual post editor, you can click the button for inserting an image.

Source: This will be the image URL’s direct link.  Generally a url generated by the image host followed by the .jpg/.png/etc file extension.

Image description: This is optional.

Dimensions: This field is auto-filled and please leave the “constrain proportions” checkbox active, because your image may be cut off otherwise.  (or so big in rendering that it could slow down the topic loading speed)

And there you have it!  The mighty Zeus.

I cannot recommend a high quality image hosting site that is free, because they are unreliable.  I recommend backing up any pictures you have in at least 2 places overall to account for potential file loss.

I have appointed new moderators that can delete both posts and users.  They will help me keep the forums clean of junk and violators.  Please contact myself or them if you notice spam/trolling/rulebreaking.

Xerecs

Artisturn (Ernie Prado)

Captain Randy

Let’s keep things civil around here so they and I have easy jobs!  😀

To reduce spam from bots and nefarious actors, a new member’s first forum post must be approved by me. This is why you may not see your first post appear immediately; it goes into a queue where I will review it and likely approve it. Once a user has their first forum post approved, subsequent posts they make should appear on the forum right away without requiring approval.
