CODE OF CONDUCT

Every member is expected to read and follow the following rules:

  1. NO ADVERTISING: Advertising and soliciting other members to buy, sell, or view any products or services through these forums is strictly prohibited and will result in the immediate banning of your account. Topics/Posts that contain advertisements will be permanently deleted.
 
  2. NO SPAMMING: Topics/posts that are just complete nonsense or duplicates of topics/posts that have been made before will be deleted or in some truly inadvertent cases may simply be locked, merged or deleted. Use good common sense when posting. Before making a new topic, make sure that you have performed a thorough SEARCH in order to ensure that a topic/post hasn't been made previously. Spamming has a serious impact on the members that are thoughtfully contributing to this community, therefore it will be dealt with first by Warnings (which will result in point deductions from your account) and in cases where warnings are not effective, your account will be temporarily or permanently banned.
 
  3. NO FLAMING: Posts that are knowingly made to harass, threaten, embarrass or cause the distress or discomfort upon another member or any other individual or entity will be dealt with harshly. In some cases, warnings may be issued, but flaming is likely to result in temporary or permanent banning. It is therefore advisable to always be respectful of your fellow members; this does not mean you cannot disagree with someone, but you do not need to tear a person down in order to prove your point.
     
  4. NO RACISM: Topics/posts/usernames that contain or exhibit any form of racism, whether direct or indirect, overt or implied shall immediately be deleted or edited by moderators as deemed appropriate. Violations of this policy may result in permanent banning without warning.
 
  5. NO POST PUMPING: Topics/Posts made that serve no other purpose than to increase the Member's own post count are considered disruptive to the community and interfere with other member's usage of the forums. Violations will be dealt with through deletion of the thread and issuance of a warning. Repeat offenses of this policy will result in permanent banning of the violator's account.
 
  6. NO CROSS-POSTING: Making several posts of the same question across multiple forums is not allowed. It is up to each individual user to select the forum which most appropriately fits the topic/post. If you are unsure which forum to use, send a private message to one of the forum moderators. Cross-posting violations will be dealt with by deleting all cross-posted threads, and leaving in place only the relevant post.

  7. MODERATORS: You must be at least 18 years of age to be a moderator. Moderators initially go through a three-month observation period. During this time, a moderator will only have control over one forum. Upon the ending of this period, the administrators and other global moderators will hold a meeting to decide if the candidate will become a global moderator. Prior experience will waive someone's observation period if they have shown to be a good fit for the position prior to their selection. The final determination of all decisions is made by administrators.

  8. CHAT CONDUCT: If you are to make use of the chat function, we ask that you please keep in mind that the age requirement here is 16. We therefore ask you to please refrain from using lewd language and posting lewd pictures. We like to encourage free speech and an open forum, but please use good judgment and common sense. Everyone, including the EK staff may get carried away once in a while, but please keep it to a minimum. Repeated, blatant violations may result in warnings and/or various levels of bans from using the chat function.

What should I do if I see a violation of the CODE OF CONDUCT?

Report it. Every post on every thread contains a "report this post" icon (in the lower right of the actual offending post). It is absolutely the duty of every member who discovers any and all acts in the forums that are in violation of this CODE OF CONDUCT to alert the forum moderators. The forum moderators are greatly concerned with maintaining order and high standards for our members, but we need your help! So, if you come across any violations of the CODE OF CONDUCT, simply report it. This includes chat posts, and posts made by moderators and/or administrators. Your reports will be kept confidential.

What happens if I violate the CODE OF CONDUCT?

Depending on the severity of the violation, a number of actions can be taken by the forum moderators. At a bare minimum, our forum moderators have been given the tools to edit, delete, merge, and move offending Topics/posts. In addition, our warning system has been tied into the forum's points system. Therefore, each time you receive a warning for a violation, you are in fact receiving demeritsa that will reduce your overall points accumulated. It is even possible that warnings received could demote your rank achieved (assuming that the points deductions received take you below the minimum threshold for your rank). For more severe offenses, the forum moderators have been empowered to strip members of their ranks and accumulated points on either a temporary or permanent basis.
A database of all bannings will be publicly available in a stickied and locked thread in the member's lounge.

BAN TRANSPARENCY:

When you are banned, we will post any and all information about it in a stickied, locked thread. Our reasons for doing so are twofold.

1. Transparency allows every member to see all circumstances of a ban, leaving no questions for the community. This allows members to know why a fellow member received a ban, and provides direct examples for others on what situations may constitute a ban. Transparency also prevents previously banned members from falsely accusing the staff here of wrong-doing. The offending members will not be able to rally support when the community can clearly see which rule was broken.

2. The second reason is a failsafe. If we have incorrectly banned a member, the community may know something that we don't. This gives the community the ability to come to the defense of a member who was possibly banned without warrant. This is a check on us. It's a feature we're proud of.
