Forum-Rules
For this forum of the clan "Freelancer" and it's server "Techcom.cz" apply the rules below, which shall be beneficial for the coexistence of the users and ensure, that all actions happen under the act of law.

1) General
You should act in any case within the laws of your country. Disregard can be prosecuted. Don't think yourself safe in the anonymity of the Internet.
The access to this board and the use of it can not be in any form required (also not judicial) or be forced in any other way. The administration (Foibos or other moderators) reserves the right to temporarily or permanently deprive individual users the privilege of the use at any time, without giving reasons.

2) Neatness
You should keep the for communities like this usual friendliness. You are communicating with other humans here, so we ask you to desist from insults or similar. In case of disregard will follow a warning, admonishment or kick from side of the administration.

Consequences for disregarding of the rules:

We distinguish between warning, admonishment and kick.
Warning is the simple verbal hint to stop a particular behaviour.
An admonishment will be noted down by the administration. Each user can have one admonishment; if another admonishment accrue to the existing one, then this will automatically result in a temporal suspension from the forum and/or the Techcom.cz-ONS-server. Admonishments expire after the time of one month and can be seen in the sub-forum of unban and ban-appeals.
A temporal suspension (kick) means divesting somebody from his rights to write within the forum and/or joining the Techcom.cz-ONS-server. In special cases a user can be kicked directly without any warning before. If a user has a second user-name (nick) to use this obviously for criminal activities (which can be seen in a low posting-count), then this may also result in an immediate kick for both accounts.

3) Pirated copies & illegal software
The requesting, praising, advertising and linking of copyright-reserved content in illegal context is forbidden.
Betas, leaks and other ways on which software may get illegal to the internet are also forbidden.
However, discussions about the consequences of a leak are allowed.
Violations will be, depending on the case, punished with warning, admonishment or kick.

4) One topic - one thread
If possible, try avoid cross-postings and assert that a topic is not already discussed, before you open a new thread.

5) Post topics in the correct forum
The whole board consists of several sub-forums with certain topics. Please post only in the matching forum to avoid confusion.

* Postings and topics that have obviously no content and only serve the increase of the postcount
* Pure smiley-postings that obviously only serve the increase of the posting-counter
* Postings that have the goal to demotivate certain participants of the discussion and don't help the discussion
* Pointless writing in very old threads to dig them up
* "Who cares?"-postings and all related kinds of them
* Unfounded suspicions of someone to be a "troll" or similar, or "Eot"-postings (End of Topic).
* A post that consists only of the demand "Pics!"
* To make know the lack of interest on a topic, also with reference to the age of a thread (moderate pointing to the age of a topic should not occur more than once per topic.)
