Using private messaging (PM) or posting in these forums to advertise your website or product or to actively solicit work or is not allowed. We consider this SPAM and take action including banning, logging your IP address and contacting your Internet Service Provider.
Should you wish to promote your website or services, please contribute to the community or contact an administrator to discuss advertising.
Please observe the following:

* Only one account per person is permitted.
* Absolutely no affiliate links are allowed in this forum.
* When registering, a valid email address has to be used. Disposable email addresses are not permitted. If found, we will remove the account in question.
* Domain names in usernames are not allowed.
* You cannot send PM's until you reach five forum posts.
* Keep all posts on-topic.
* All posts must be in English, unless posted in a specific international forum. If posting in a international forum, please use the language of that forum, and not English.
* Do not pretend to be/represent somebody else. Your account will be deleted if found to be in breach of this rule.
* Do not discuss illegal activities. Our server is hosted in the UK and so is subject to UK law. Please do not expose us to any unnecessary legal liability.
* Check that your question has not been answered anywhere else on the site. Use the search feature, typing in common phrases you would ask a human.
* Post your comment/question in the most appropriate place. Any posts deemed to be in the wrong forum will be moved. Do not cross-post the same question to multiple places.
* Make sure you have read the parent article/post completely before posting a reply
* Use your own words. If you wish to use the words of somebody else, quote them, citing the source. Plagiarism is unethical and is illegal in many countries.
* Choose an appropriate subject line. Try to summarise the problem briefly in the subject, and elaborate in the message itself. Repeat the subject in the body if it will make things clearer. Do not use all caps and do not add false information just to get attention (e.g. GENUINE VIRUS ALERT). An example of a bad subject would be "Need help". A good subject might be, "Guitar whammy bar sticking". Never use a URL (webpage link) as a thread title.
* Include as much information as you can when seeking help. Nobody will be able to help you if you don't give sufficient detail.
* No useless posts.
* Thank those who help you and post a reply if your problem is solved. All those who have been helped on this forum are invited to help other users by responding to their questions when they know the answer and to consider donating to this forum's hosting charges.
