Rule 6) Inappropriate Material 



Nudity, sexual scene in music videos or films will not be allowed. The only exceptions to this rule are swearing in clips or films, as long as the topic is named to warn someone. Anyone who breaks this rule will be banned for 24 hours

If you fail to supply a real name and in fact give a false name then this is fraud which is a criminal offense and you may be prosecuted. To break this rule, will result in a Permanent Ban, with no warning.



Rule 10) Copying NerdSoup Content



Copying any of our posts will not be tolerated. However, if you are republishing NerdSoup content onto other forums/websites in order to either bully members to prevoke arguments/feuds between this website and another then you will receive a 31 day banishment and an Official Warning. Bullying and "fire starting" is strictly prohibited, thus such cases will not be dealt with lightly.



Rule 11) Troll Attacks



It is against the rules to attack the forum with spam, trolling or anything of the sort. This rule is mainly aimed at organised troll attacks, but anyone who attacks the forum in anyway will be banned.



To attack the forum is one of the biggest rule breaks, and will result in a permanent ban. It can be dangerous when someone attacks the forum.



Note: This is a family friendly forum - please ensure all content posted is viewable by children aged 12 and under. If you are asked to remove content by a moderator, your compliance would be greatly appreciated.

Warnings
We appreciate that everyone makes mistakes, so after your first offense, an unofficial warning will be given. The following offenses will then be rewarded by official warnings until your warning bar is empty, at which point your account will be permanently banned. In some cases, moderators may choose to hand out additional punishments (eg temporary bannings, chatbox bans etc.) if they deem it appropriate and to ensure the best outcome for all parties involved.

Remember: Moderators are not here to police you! Their job is to make sure your experience on NerdSoup is the best possible, so please assist them if they ask for your help.
