These are the BigFooty Adelaide Board and Bay 114 - the BF Experiment posting rules.
No 1 rule and the most important is the BigFooty posting guidelines that state that you must be respectful when posting on other teams boards.
Opposition supporters
* Constructive and friendly debate is more than welcome.
* Joining in the spirit of existing satire and friendly banter may also be okay.
* Saying you were only joking after you have been infracted = bad luck. If you are not sure and don't make it clear, then don't post it.
* Opposition fans do not have the same right of reply as Adelaide fans. If you want to get even with an Adelaide fan, choose another board to do it (within BF guidelines).
* Personal abuse by an opposition fan will meet with an infraction.
* Disrespect towards Adelaide or its players will meet with an infraction.
* The moderators reserve the right to interpret your intent as they see fit.
* If you want to complain against an infraction via PM or on the boards, you may be rewarded with a further infraction.
* The moderators may at any time decide to remove your access to the Adelaide board temporarily or permanently.
* If we deem that your post is a 'troll' then a Mid-range infraction will be given in the first instance.
Adelaide supporters
* You do have the right of reply against opposition supporters, however if your response far outweighs what you are responding to, warnings or infractions may be handed out. Let's remember kids post here too.
* Abuse of fellow Adelaide supporters may incur an infraction or a warning.
* If you are found to be an opposition supporter posing as a Adelaide supporter, your board access will be removed and enough infraction points retrospectively incurred for trolling posts, to ensure you spend a spell on the sidelines site wide.
This board has increased its traffic greatly in recent times and with that increase comes an increase in troublemaking and trolling.
Do not post using sms txting. This will result in infractions being given. You have a full keyboard, please use it and the english language.
We will not always catch everything and we may not act on everything, however the onus is on the posters to check their own behaviour, not the moderators to be 100% consistent (although that is our aim). If we spend a couple of hours cleaning up rubbish, then we may not be as forgiving of breaches as we would be if it had been quiet recently.
Posters should endeavour to stick to the topic & where they completely derail a thread, particularly with ongoing personal abuse, then they will likely earn themselves an infraction.
A long time reasonable poster may not incur the same punishment as a new poster who has always pushed the boundaries. You make your own reputation and may occasionally be judged based on that reputation. They are the facts of life.
Once more, if you are not sure, read it again, think about it and if you are still not sure .... don't post it.
Just to refresh your memory the Forum rules can be found here.
