  • Flaming/Trolling
    This is a friendly community, everyone comes here with different experiences and we do not tolerate any public demoralization of our community members. If you know more about zombies than a new member, please post in a positive and educational tone rather than calling the member any sorts of derogatory names or talking down on them. If you came here to post, you already have an open mind. Just open it a bit more and be respectful to all members of this board. If you have a dispute with another member of our community, please take it to an administrator or private the message the member to clear it up.


  • Spamming
    Spamming on this forum will not be tolerated outside of the designated section. If you have something to add to the conversation, feel free to post; but do not post nonsense just to raise your post count.


  • Spelling/Grammar
    This community values the attempts of each member to use proper spelling and grammar in each of their posts. While we are more than understanding that some of our members might have conditions that may make such things more difficult, laziness is not accepted by the community. So please take the time to write out entire words ("Why" instead of "y", "You" instead of "u" etc.), and use proper punctuation and capitals as needed; as this makes the conversation easier to follow and allows for a more mature community as a whole.

    Most updated browsers have a spell checker either by default or as an add-on that will allow you to check your posts as you type. If not, you are able to easily check in most word processing programs as well as the site http://www.spellchecker.net/.


  • Off Topic Posts
    Please keep posts on topic in any specific thread. If you have something new to talk about please start a new thread about it.


  • Bullying and Harassment
    Wikipedia wrote:The term "cyberbullying" was first coined and defined by Bill Belsey, as "the use of information and communication technologies to support deliberate, repeated, and hostile behavior by an individual or group, that is intended to harm others."

    Cyber-bullying can be as simple as continuing to send e-mail to someone who has said they want no further contact with the sender, but it may also include threats, sexual remarks, pejorative labels (i.e., hate speech), ganging up on victims by making them the subject of ridicule in forums, and posting false statements as fact aimed at humiliation.

    If you feel like you have been bullied or harassed either in a post or through a PM please message me and things will be dealt with on a case by case basis. Understand that there will be no tolerance for bullying or harassment in this community and all cases will be dealt with swiftly and fairly.


  • Discussion of Explosives
    Discussion of legal explosives is allowed on the forum. Posts describing how to build any type of illegal explosive, or linking to “recipes” for building illegal explosives, will be removed.


  • Respect the Staff
    Along with showing respect to your fellow community members by not flaming, you should show respect to the staff that helps keep this site running. The staff here always has you, the user in mind when decisions are made. Please respect the staff and the decisions he or she made, if you have any problems please use the private messaging system rather than making a scene on the forums.


  • Signatures
    They are fun right, but having a huge signature will only be a burden to the forum. Please keep signature images no larger than 500x150 pixels. Signatures should not contain foul images or degrading remarks. Use the signature space to express yourself. Text, links, and images may be used but may be changed without warning if it disobeys any of the other zombie-forum.com forum rules.




Disclaimer
Rules may be changed at any time without notification of the community; it is up to you, the members, to read the rules periodically.









All posts here at zombie-forum.com are property of zombie-forum.com and the post creator. You must obtain permission from both the owner of this board and the post originator to use content found on this forum.
