Forum Rules [Please Read]

[Medic94]

Here are the rules. These are meant to ensure the quality of discussion and information found here. They are not flexible and will be enforced. The reasoning behind them is to make sure good information doesn't get buried by childish behavior. If you have a question about one of these rules please PM a staff member. We're always glad to discuss and avoid problems before they happen.

• No attacks, slander, racial slurs, bigotry, etc. If you bicker, argue and fight you will be shown the door. We're adults, act like it.
• No discussion of illegal activities. No discussions of illegally modifying firearms. If the local DA and police frown on it, don't discuss it here.
• No posting of personal information, yours or others. Please keep this information private.
• No posting of the same topic in multiple forums in an attempt to get more response. Additionally, no spamming.
• No link dumping. If you post a link do it correctly or the thread will be locked/disappear. Threads with links should include a synopsis of the article/video being linked, notification of where the link is taking us and (most importantly) some connection to firearms. Threads with a subject line and link without the above will be zapped.
• No "where did my thread go" threads. If you can't find your thread PM a staff member.
• Staff members are tasked (amongst many things) with protecting the best interests of the website and our members. As such there is a degree of discretion available to staff members. Sometimes they will make judgment calls on threads that skirt prohibited subjects or when dealing with those who can't play by the rules.
• Please try to place topics in the correct forum. Posting subjects wherever you please makes for an unorganized website. We're glad to move them once in a great while, but repeat offenders will not be looked upon kindly.
• No necroposting. Please have something new and relevant to add to the discussion when you bring these threads back from the land of the undead.
• Posts and topics that are aimed at directing traffic to competitor sites are not permitted, and will be removed without warning or notification.**[08/2016 Amendment]**

These rules are designed to keep us focused on the topic of the forum. They are subject to change as situations warrant.

If you have any questions or concerns, don’t hesitate to contact one of our Administrators.

Thanks, and welcome to Manasota Gun Traders!
