There are quite a few board rules located at: http://www.sitcomsonline.com/boards/announcement.php?f=168
However, these specific rules have been abused as of late. Please keep these in mind when posting, and try to curtail criticism unless you have concrete evidence:
1. We are a PG-13 site - please do not post any disgusting, vulgar, or offensive topics or pictures. Members are expected to self-moderate themselves within these guidelines. Moderators may edit your post if something is over the line. Mild profanity is commonplace, as is close-form substitutions. More severe profanity is blocked by the forum chat filter. Do not attempt to circumvent the chat filter using vbcode...it's just not cool
4. Message Policy: No personal attacks - do not bring your instant messages, private e-mails or messages to the board. No derogatory comments against other posters, including slurs based on race, religion, gender, sexual preference, or political affiliation. No snide remarks directed toward other users. No personal threats or harassment. No impersonation of other users. Do not act in a matter interpreted as condescending towards other users. They have just as much right to express their opinion as you. ANY Sitcoms Online user caught making racist and/or derogatory comments towards country, region, or group of people, OR ANY SITCOMS ONLINE MEMBER, will be suspended. Any future violations will result in either an extended suspension, or banning. Any user with moderation-level control of the site whom is suspended may lose moderator priveledges.
5. In addition, please Do NOT correct other users spelling, punctuation, and/or grammar. This isn't English class - as long as the point's in the message, mistakes here and there are ok.
10. Please use the 'Report this post to a moderator' feature if you find an offensive post. While there are additional moderators for many of the boards, it's impossible to keep up with everything and read all posts.
