While heated discussions and arguments are okay, avoid direct personal attacks on other forum members. There is a certain level of acceptable banter, but do not cross it -- respect the wishes of others and warnings from the moderators.

Do not post the same thing twice. Create threads in the appropriate forum. Do not post something completely unrelated to a topic of a thread. Threads often drift off topic, and this is fine. If the thread diverges into multiple unrelated topics, it will often be split by the moderators.

Do not conduct illegal activity on these forums -- specifically software piracy. While laws vary in different countries and there are many legal gray areas, these forums are hosted in the United States and subject to its laws. Any court orders will be complied with.
