    Default Forum Rules Advice

    I am having trouble thinking up some forum rules, I never really thought much of them before because all my other forums always gained mature posters (i.e people over 20)

    But this new forum will probably be reached by younger people, so I wanted some advice on which rules to use

    Start off with the basic common sense rules.
    Don't spam.
    Don't swear
    No porn
    No trolls
    No copyright infringement.
    Be respectful of others when placing or linking to images here.
    Advertise in the advertising forums only.
    If you need to elaborate, you can do it if certain areas become a problem. But first decide what you will allow and won't allow.

    Autumn has it down. For my forum, I used the Ubuntu forums code of conduct which is very long but lays everything out so there's no loop holes for assine members that you ban to argue. Take it look at it: Ubuntu Forums - Policy and my edits: http://www.ourdjtalk.com/view_community_guidelines.htm

    Autumn listed the basics. Add additional rules as problems arise (which they probably will).
