No Serious Personal Attacks Act
This includes posting personal information
against the user's request, making threats via the forums in any way,
derogatory comments involving racial, sexual, homophobic, ageist,
religious, political, ethnic, or other epithets (such as against people
with disabilities). Anything breaking the aforementioned would result
in a warning, and if continued, possibly a ban.
It's mainly to prevent
personal grudges/conflicts from reaching the internet. And really, it's the internet. You're supposed to have fun, not fight.
Note/exception: If both parties
find something humorous, it wouldn't be breaking any rules. (Example:
Person A calls person B a money-grubbing jew, but person B find it to
be funny instead of offensive.)
Another exception would be if someone posted personal information of another user. It will be removed by a moderator as soon as it is found, said moderator will contact the both uses, and the information will be readded to the post if the user is okay with their information being posted.
