Global Rules
- Use Common Sense – All Content must contribute productively to the conversation and be written to the best of the author's ability. We do not allow Content that contains spam, excessive swearing, rude comments, or inappropriate material. Avoid divulging personal information such as your home address or phone number.
- The spelling and grammar of your Content are not required to be perfect; however, we do ask that you contribute to the best of your grammatical abilities. In addition, while we're not very strict regarding content quality, we ask you to please generate at least one (1) sentence per posting and reframe from posting things such as "Bump" unless you are playing a community game.
-
Unsuitable Content – Any website that includes inappropriate Content may not be discussed, linked to, or advertised on Zapstech. Unacceptable Content consists of the following:
- Pirated or nulled software
- Hacking (black hat and white hat)
- Torrents and black hat SEO
- Pornography
- Non-English Content
- Misleading links, shock images, and shock videos
- Content that targets hate based on race, religion, or belief group
- Anything else determined to be unacceptable.
- Only Advertise Where Allowed – Providing links to your site or affiliate links in off-topic areas is not allowed. You may not use private messages and profile comments to advertise your website, community, or thread. If you receive a private message that violates these rules, please report it. You cannot use private messages until a user makes five (5) posts. You may only use affiliate links in the appropriate section of our Promotion Directory.
- Multiple Accounts – Please make one account and stick to it. Any reputation, community cash, etc., that is obtained from the use of multiple accounts will be removed. In extreme cases, we may ban all your accounts from Zapstech. Ban evasion is not tolerated. Switching accounts may be allowed in particular circumstances with the permission of an administrator. If you are using the same computer or IP Address as another member, please get in touch with us before signing up to prevent any potential issues from arising. You may not share accounts and login credentials with anyone else.
- Backseat Moderation – If you see Content that breaks the rules, please report it rather than replying to the Content. We appreciate that you want to help, and you can help us by reporting Content that breaks the rules; when users try to solve problems themselves, it often causes problems and arguments.
- Signatures & Avatars – Both signatures and avatars may not contain inappropriate material and may be removed without warning. Signatures must have a total height of 150 pixels or less. That means that the signature's total size may not exceed 150 pixels vertically, including all images and text together. For staff members, valued contributors, and retired administrators, this limit is 200 pixels. Finally, no individual image in the signature may exceed 650 pixels in width.
- Constructive Feedback – We appreciate feedback on all our services and operations. However, we can only consider ideas that are constructive and well-formed. Please be polite and constructive when leaving feedback to Zapstech, its staff, and your fellow members.
- Miscellaneous
-
- Reputation and trade feedback may not be bought or sold, or used dishonestly.
- Harassment is not allowed. This includes bugging via private message.
- Exchanges can only involve websites that follow our applicable content rules (see above).
- Complaints about any member or staff member should be made a member of the Administrative team.
- Banned user's websites may not be advertised on Zapstech.
- Illegal activity such as scamming, hacking, and abuse is not tolerated.
- Bumping old topics is allowed if you are the original content creator. Avoid bumping too many old topics at once to prevent confusion.
