Netiquette

The ALLSTARSCLUB FORUM is where you, ALLSTARSCLUB members, can discuss what You want. But we want you all to have a great experience and in order for that to happen there have to be some guidelines… Nothing big, just common sense mostly. Our moderators are going to be tough on people who are kill-joys and rule breakers so take a sec to read them over.

01- We do not tolerate harassment of any kind on the boards. This means no discrimination against people who are a different race than you, a different gender than you or different anything from you.

02- No spamming! Don't write the same thing over and over. Don't write the same thing over and over. Don't write the same thing over and over. Don't… Get it? Pretty annoying, huh? And you can really ruin other people's topic. While we're on the topic - don't start chatting about how you don't like the other chatters or how they spell or what the topic is… Nobody likes a whiner!

03- Don't swear or say gross and rude things. You might think it's funny but I bet a lot of other members don't and the moderators won't either. You will get the boot. Don't make sexually explicit comments. This isn't hustler. ‘Nuff said.

04- Don't post htmls on our boards other than to help members with their blogs/website or to introduce your own websites. If you are caught advertising for someone, we will remove the topic and you might get the boot.

05- Do not give out your personal info. This means never tell people things like your real name, your age, your address, your digits (phone number). This also means don't give out something as simple as your town name. Sure, say you live in Kuala Lumpur, but don't say Jalan Ampang cuz that totally narrows the scope and someone could find ya pretty easy. Email addresses are a big no-no too. People can get background info on you from them.

06- Respect the topic in the room. When there is a specific topic in the board - like the latest Backstreet Boys Special - don't start posting and barking about Green Day. Both bands are great but only one is of interest to the fellow bloggers.

07- DON'T TYPE IN ALL CAPS. Why? Cuz you are yelling at them. That's what all caps is used for.

08- Don't be offended if people don't greet you right away. Some people are just really involved in their conversations and might not have noticed you are there. Go ahead and say hi.

09- Read. Take the time to read to what people are writing about so that you can make good comments. Also give people a chance to respond to what you have asked. Sometimes it may take people a minute to think of a response and type it out.

10- If a fellow blogger is rude to you, just ignore the person. Don't start a fight, don't read the comments posted. The moderators will deal with it.

That's all guys. Keep in mind what we can do to make this FORUM a place for everyone to have good fun and make friends. Happy Chatting!

Attention members:
Please read the rules of this Forum.
*I notice some of you like to jump topic. Please create a new topic when you want to chat about something else not related to the topic posted by your friend.

*Please be polite when you write your messages. Avoid using harsh language and don't pick on each other. This is not a battleground. Avoid copying other styles of writing. This is not cool at all and surely create more ground for others to critisize you your actions.

I trust and believe all of you are great kids. Let's keep it that way so the Forum will run smoothly and we can draw more members here.
