Forum Etiquette
When talking to anyone, irrespective of medium, do not type with the Caps Lock
key TURNED ON. It’s known as ‘shouting’, and is considered extremely rude and
provocative. Similarly, overuse of abbreviations can cause offense. If a
recipient has to fight to comprehend a confusing cryptic message, the sender has
failed and you may not even get a response.
Search First
To save everybody time, use the search tools that this forum provides to look
for similar topics, and check them before you post. If your research draws a
blank, it’s now time to post.
Help Us to Help You
Ensure that you provide all relevant data that might help in diagnosing the
problem; this should include your PCs specifications, external hardware and what
fixes you have attempted. Most members here at PCReview are only too pleased to
help out, but can only give effective advice if you provide detailed
explanations of the problem or fault.
Abusive & Illegal Material
Pornography, Warez, or any other illegal transactions may NOT
be linked in any shape or form. PCReview.co.uk does not condone or promote
piracy of any kind. This specifically includes piracy of
- Video material (copying DVDs or encoded movies via the internet)
- Music not specifically permitted for download in this way
- Games and other applications leaked, downloaded or copied
Why do we take this position? Because doing the above is theft and illegal.
Whether or not you agree with file sharing and whether or not you agree with the
ways the big corporations try to combat this 'problem', you may not post
anything on these forums which can be interpreted by our moderators as directly
promoting piracy.
Flaming & Derogatory Remarks
Flaming will not be tolerated, whether it be directed at another forum member or
a business. Posts deemed to fall into this category will be removed.
PMs & Emails
Please, do not contact individual members for a private consultation as they
will just delete your message … use the forum, where,
you can be better assisted by all. PMs are for private discussion which is not
relevant to the forum and can be thought of as a local e-mail system.
User Name Policy
Please note that the User-name should conform to the following
guidelines and it should not be changed once set. Forum members are required to
register with a displayed name or user-name which does NOT feature an email
address, an obvious company name, or names that may carry a message or
meaning that may be interpreted as inappropriate. Admin decision in this regard
is final and user-names deemed inappropriate for the forum will be deleted or
renamed.
Signatures
Everyone is able to insert a forum signature at the bottom of their
posts by modifying the user profile. Please keep these quite short and clean so
it doesn't interfere with the general forum posting. Small images are allowed,
but no HTML. Links in signatures are not allowed unless permission has been
sought & given by an administrator. Any signatures not complying will be
deleted.
Language
Foul Language and obscene images will not be tolerated. This site is family friendly, and all posts and posters must respect the integrity of the site.
In addition, you may not deliberately misspell, or substitute punctuation or other special characters in filtered words to circumvent any profanity filters of the forums you are posting on.
Spam
Posting of unsolicited messages on the forum to advertise your services are not
acceptable. If you post spam, your post will be deleted and your account banned.
