1. No Vulgar Language/Images

Any use of swearing or inappropriate language or images will result in a warning. Attempting to get by the word filters by inserting symbols for letters is also not allowed. This rule is to stop posters from using too many foul words that degrade the content of the posts and the forum. Images that display any kind of sexual or indecent acts, moods, ideas, or poses will be removed immediately. This rule is directly from the InvisionFree software.

2. No Advertising

Any advertising of other forums, websites, or products in your user title, signature, avatar, posts, topics, or personal messages is prohibited. First offense will remove that ad with a warning, second offense is a permanent ban.

The exception to the advertising rule is that any website or forum affiliated with The Sports Network may be advertised modestly in a signature.

If you want to affliate your site with ours, please go to that part of the forum.

If anyone PM's you trying to get you to come to there site. Please let an admin know.
