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 !!
