MOO Posting Rules
1. The trading, buying, or selling of illegal or age-controlled material and items is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, counterfeit items (including "proxy" cards), items that infringe on a company's trade or service marks, drugs of any kind, alcohol, tobacco, firearms, and adult material -- you know better, right?2. Spamming, flooding, scrolling, etc. are strictly prohibited. This includes posting topics or replies that have no other purpose but to advertise another site or product, posting the same topic repeatedly, and using an excessive number of non-word characters in a post or subject title. Such posts will be removed and your IP will be banned!
3. Please use a respectable degree of maturity when posting here. Don't swear (this includes ASCII swearing, where letters are replaced with punctuation characters) and don't pick fights with other members. Please keep your posts appropriate and on topic. If you aren't sure where "the line is", err on the side of caution and be nice. If you wouldn't make such a post to your parents or boss, you probably are best not making it here.
4. Do NOT post topics advertising your own services here. Instead, click on the "advertising" link to see what we can do for you!
5. Do not use ALL CAPITAL LETTERS. Don't put your subject in ALL CAPS, and don't write in it either. It's like yelling and it's really annoying. It's common netiquette not to write in ALL CAPS, so don't do it. This includes posting message titles in mostly CAPS. Do not try to loophole the rules, your post will still be closed or deleted and your IP banned.
6. Only post posts in their appropriate community boards. For instance, if you live in Cambridge, and have a piano for sale, listing it in Burlington, will most likely go un-noticed, as we have found that people shop locally! If you continue to post in a forum where it does not belong it will be either moved, or more likely, deleted. If you do this repeatedly, you will be banned. Also, do not post the same topic in more than one forum.
7. You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this bulletin board to post any material that is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, profane, threatening, sexually exploitable, invasive of a person's privacy, or that otherwise violates any law. You agree not to post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or by this bulletin board.
8. Although MOO does not and cannot review the messages posted and is not responsible for the content of any of these messages, MOO reserves the right to delete any message or member for any or no reason whatsoever. You remain solely responsible for the content of your messages, and you agree to indemnify and hold harmless MOO and their agents with respect to any claim based upon transmission of your message(s).
9. Please note that advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, and solicitations are inappropriate to this bulletin board and will always be deleted and your IP will be banned!
