1. No Sexual References or Adult Content: If you are caught making sexual references or advancements in any part of the forum or Private Messaging system you will be banned without notice.
2. No discussion of illegal actions or practices.
3. Keep swearing to a minimal level: Swearing is fine but using terms or references that are over the top or offensive you will be asked to stop. As well please don't use swearing in every sentence you post or be cussing every other word.
4. Do Not Spam: Spamming includes 1-2 word comments, posting the same comment multiple times in the same or different forums, having a comment that consists of nothing but Emoticons, having a comment that consists of nothing but caps.
5. Do not insult the site, the staff, or members in your posts. Respect is a key feature here on the site. As such use of respect is highly wanted. Treat others how you wish to be treated.
6. Do not backseat mod: Backseat modding is seeing someone breaking the rules and taking matters into your own hands. While we do appreciate our members reminding other members of our rules. However this is a difference between reminding a member and acting like a moderator. Acting like a moderator is when you actively see another member trying to enforce the rules of the site. Reminding is simply them saying something along the lines of, "If you keep doing this than chances are you're going to get in trouble." If you see someone trying to enforce the rules but are not a member of the staff, contact a mod or admin and they'll take care of it accordingly.
7. No Advertising other sites in your posts. You may have 1 site you wish to show in your signature but no more than that. If you wish to discuss an affiliation with our site then please private message one of the administrators.
8. No Necro-Posting: If the topic you wish to comment on has gone 2 months without a new post do not post on that without giving a legitimate reason to a mod or admin why you are posting.
9. No Bullying: Here at the Nerdalius we do not tolerate any type of bullying or bullying in the form of "Trolling". Joking around is fine and you can have fun with it but if you don't like what someone is saying or feel that someone is attacking you in some sort of way state clearly that you do not like it and contact a member of the staff. We have a 0 tolerance policy here and there for will act as if it is their second offense or above.
10. This Forum is 13+. If you are not of age you will be asked to leave the site.
