Please read the following rules that have been adopted for the Riesentoter PCA Web forums. Failure to follow the rules and guidelines below may result in banning.
1. No flaming: debates are ok, but responding to threads just to incite or start an argument or conflict is not permitted. Personal attacks, if hostile in nature, are not allowed.
2. No pointless threads or excessive posting allowed: keep the subject matter of an intelligent nature. Posting responses to increase your 'number of posts' is also not allowed.
3. Keep posts on topic. Similarly - keep to the topic of any given thread.
4. Cross posting is not allowed. Do not start the same thread in multiple forums.
5. Absolutely no pornographic, objectionable, or illegal material allowed. No pictures, links to pictures, discussion of porn...etc. is allowed. Objectionable material includes graphic gore, tasteless jokes, and any off-color subject matter. Such posts will be deleted, and such posts are grounds for banning.
6. No discussion of any illegal activity permitted. This not only jeoparizes RTR and PCA, it will ultimately jeopardize you! Linking to any site that deals with illegal activity is not allowed. Posting information on how to defraud a company or misuse a product or any promotion of any illegal activity will not be tolerated. Again, such posts are grounds for banning. Observe all copyright laws when posting copyrighted material.
7. Do not impersonate other people or use aliases. Only one user ID per person allowed.
8. No profanity allowed. Make every effort to express your views without resorting to trash talk.
9. Respect other's privacy: no posting of pictures, phone numbers, email addresses...etc. of another individual without their permission.
10. Members posting a commericial web site that is not Porsche related or personal pornographic website in their profile will have their profile deleted
11. The decisions made by the moderators are final.

Are these guidelines still in effect?
- Mike Andrews - 12-06-2009
I would think so.....
- Brian Minkin - 12-06-2009
Yes these guidelines are still in effect. However based on past experience, feedback and criticism each post that violates these guidelines is looked at and a administrative decision is made whether the post warrants deletion and possible banning of the users IP address. Being the admin is not fun in that no matter what your decision someone will disagree.
Another rule has been added to the guidelines. If a new member posts a commercial web site that is not Porsche related in their profile that membership will be deleted. Also personal web sites that are pornographic will have their membership deleted. I have to delete several pornographic web site profiles each day.
Also I have noted duplicate IP addresses and some of them are family members who loggin from the same computer or router that is cloaking the IP. I am however contacting the few members who are using more then one member name and requesting that they delete the additional profiles they created. IF they continue they will be banned.

Any chance that those who are improperly using aliases will be identified?
