NAG Online Forums FAQ

The discussion of piracy is not allowed. Anyone providing links to pirated material (including roms, warez, mod-chipping, oldwarez (double-check status here), torrents, etc) will have the offending post moderated and a minimum of a temporary suspension. If there is something that you?d like to share with the community but are unsure of its legitimacy, please contact a moderator to have the item cleared before posting.

Insults, personal attacks and discrimination against race, gender, ethnicity and religious, political or sexual persuasion constitute flaming. While you can expect to have your beliefs questioned in some of the more heated topics, being insulted for having those beliefs is not acceptable. However, we do advise sensitive users to avoid such topics if they are likely to be easily offended.

The following counts as spamming:
(1) Short posts that serve no real purpose: Posts such as "LOL, yeah" are unacceptable. Voting threads are the exception to this rule, although we encourage the use of the poll system in such cases.
(2) Multiple instances of the same post (across multiple threads or otherwise) or repeating the same statement multiple times in different ways: Although we will of course treat accidental duplicates as mistakes, repeating the same question five times because you're being ignored is perhaps a sign that nobody has an answer for you.
(3) Making nonsense posts for the sake of boosting post count: You are required to make at least 20 posts before you can create your own threads, please try to make those posts as meaningful as possible. If you have a matter of utmost importance that requires its own thread, contact an admin to see if you can be bumped through the 20 post requirement.
(4) Posting many images in a single post: We do not allow the posting of more than three images per post. Do not make consecutive posts as a workaround to this rule.
(5) Posting lists of items in response to "Your top/most/favourite..." threads. Lists do nothing but clutter the forums with junk that nobody will bother reading. If you want to share your favourites with the forum, make sure you discuss/explain/elaborate your points.

Off-topic discussion is discouraged. We understand the nature of forums results in topics changing as they progress, but wildly inappropriate and unrelated posts outside the context of the Original Topic (usually the first post of a thread) will be seen as spamming.

This forum has a number of users that are under the age of 18. Any adult material that is published or transmitted on the forums will result in at least a temporary suspension. Please mark any questionable content with NSFW (Not Safe For Work). Knowingly transmitting or linking to any viruses, including downloadable files or compromised websites, will result in an immediate and permanent ban.

While there is no hard-and-fast definition for trolling, we define it as the posting of messages (public or otherwise) with the intent to cause trouble, harm or unrest, or simply to annoy the users or moderation team. The moderation team understands that many attempts to spark debate or simply argue may come across as trolling to some users, however, so each incident will be dealt with individually. Troll-baiting is reverse trolling; setting up a situation that will encourage trolls to respond or interfere. Troll-baiting will be treated in the same way as trolling. Additionally, we ask that users do not feed the trolls; if you encounter an obvious troll, leave it alone and report any offending posts immediately ? the moderation team will deal with it accordingly.

Multiple or alternative accounts are not allowed. Users are limited to one account only. If you are found to be the owner of more than one account, all but the latest account will be banned permanently and the remaining accounts put up for review.
