Forum Rules
Registration to this forum is free!
In an effort to improve the signal to noise ratio on our forums we insist that you abide by these guidelines when participating. With thousands of registered members from all over the world we have reached a point where tremendous diversity, age, education, location, and more, are all factors to consider when participating in our forums. We want to promote a clean, healthy, respectful atmosphere where people are not afraid to ask questions, participate in this community and generally have a good time discussing the things we love most - TDIs.
With that in mind, here are the rules:
THE BIG RULES: Violation of these rules is grounds for IMMEDIATE banning of your account. If you think we're kidding, think again.
[1]No profanity or swearing in subject lines, signatures or body.
[2]No commercial solicitation outside the Classifieds/For Sale/Wanted forum ("Classifieds") is permitted. Inside the Classifieds forum, periodical announcements of new products are permitted. "Group buy" topics may be posted in the Classifieds section. Classified ads belong in the Classifieds. Any such messages outside of the Classifieds will be removed at the discretion of either a forum moderator or administrator. Support, information, etc., from users is permitted outside the Classifieds. Members are encouraged to contact the vendor of a product directly for "where to buy", official support, and product information.
[3]No flaming of other members to incite or perpetuate a conflict or argument. ANY personal attacks or name calling will get you banned.
[4]No bombing forums or threads with pointless posts.
[5]No linking or posting of pornographic or objectionable material.
[6]Do not impersonate other individuals or falsely represent yourself.
[7]Do not discuss, suggest, engage, or encourage any illegal activity on the forums. Linking to locations that deal with any such activity are also forbidden.
[8]Posting under secondary usernames or alias user names other than your main account for the purpose of arguing, degrading or belittling other readers is grounds for having your posting privileges revoked.
[9]You must have a valid e-mail account in your profile so you can be reached by a forum moderator or administrator.
[10]It's ok to agree to disagree.
These are here to help you (and others) have an enjoyable experience here.
[*]Respect both forum moderators and administrators. It is a thankless, unpaid job that we do, and cleaning up other people's messes is never fun.
[*]No SHOUTING. Don't use all caps when posting. It is difficult to read and annoying.
[*]Try to post to the forum that is most appropriate for the topic being presented.
[*]No cross-posting. (see spamming above)
[*]Refrain from using profanity or creative spell1ng to get around the censor filters.
[*]Respect the privacy of other members and individuals. Do not post personal information about them (i.e. addresses, phone numbers, passwords, etc.) without their consent.
[*]No buying, selling, or trading anywhere outside of the Classifieds Forum.
[*]Observe all copyright laws when posting copyrighted material.
[*]Do not post messages that violate Federal, State, Provincial, or Local laws which include, but are not limited to, anything that violates a copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, or is bound by NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement).
Moderators and administrators frequently review forum messages for those that are in violation of these rules. Any messages found to be in violation may be deleted without warning or explanation. We also reserves the right to ban any user, at any time, and for any reason.
