Allo' Expat Forum
Guidelines
These are in addition to/alongside the terms
and conditions you agreed to before registering and the general site terms which are viewable
here.
General
Guidelines
- There will be no
racial, ethnic, gender based insults or any other personal discriminations.
- There will be no posts meant to offend or hurt any other users or staff
members, either in public forums or private messages, in a manner which is offensive or
inflammatory.
- Spam, which is defined as posts which do not fit the topic in
question, excessive posting (posting multiple times in succession within the same topic), or cross
posting (posting the same message in multiple topics), are not allowed on Allo' Expat Forums.
- p*rn, warez, or any other illegal transactions may NOT be linked in any
shape or form.
- Pictures may be posted as long as they are not explicit or
offensive. If you plan to post more than one image, or the topic is based on graphics, please link
the images rather than screening, it will help the slow
connections.
- Advertising, commercial-related or competing products are all
forbidden in any relation to your account except by explicit permission.
- If
you are linking to external content, you should link directly to that content. It is unacceptable
to use link-thru systems to mask the originating URL, and cases where this is found to be happening
may be edited or removed as appropriate.
- Remember to post in the correct
forum. Take your time to look at other topics and see where your topic should go. If your topic is
placed in the wrong forum, it will be moved by a moderator.
- If a topic is
recognized as being posted in the wrong forum, or if the post is a violation of our guidelines then
please contact a moderator either via PM or the 'report post to moderator'
feature.
- Please note that, from time to time, topics may be removed for being
inappropriate even though your individual post in that topic may have been perfectly fine. Please
do not feel this reflects badly on you.
- Private Message shall remain private.
They shall not not be posted on the Forums. Please contact a Moderator or the Administrator if you
receive a Private Message which does not respect the guidelines.
- Any and all
complaints directed at a moderator must first address the moderator in question via PM. If the
problem can not be resolved, then the moderator and user must send their positions to the forum
Administrator. The forum Administrator will make or change any and/or all final
decisions.
- If you have an issue concerning our services or policies please
feel free to info@alloexpat.com. We take serious complaints to heart and will do our best to
address them.
Violation of any of these rules will result in
consequences determined on a case-by-case basis. We reserve the right to ban any member who
violates our guidelines or disrupts our community. We will be fair and provide warning in most
cases.
Additional Guidelines to enjoy these
forums
- This forum is intended
for users over the age of thirteen (13), however users of all ages are able to view the site,
therefore persons of a younger age should be taken into consideration when posting content onto the
public forums. Therefore it is asked that members use common sense when posting messages.
- When posting on the forums, please use English or try to provide a
translation.
Abbreviations should be avoided for the benefit of all
members.
- Topics such as "help me" will often be ignored, members
will be more likely to view a thread if the topic is more definitive. We want to help, however we
can't if we are not lead to the thread.
- Don't be afraid to type! Short
messages are unlikely to get much of a response; however, if you write something that shares
experiences, you're more likely to receive a response.
We encourage
you to read ALL of the messages so you can get involved in discussing the issues, share news of
interest from your local area, post messages or questions, and help make this forum an exciting
place for all members of our community. It�s the exchange of ideas that makes this forum valuable -
so use it and enjoy it !!
