In an effort to maintain the integrity of OzzModz.com and to provide a comfortable environment for people to communicate, we ask that you please follow the guidelines when posting on this site. These guidelines are global and are effective on every area on this site.
Any comments posted on OzzModz.com that violate our guidelines are routinely removed.
We reserve the right to close the accounts of persistent violators of these guidelines at any time and without warning.
Registration Guidelines:
Individuals are allowed one account. Anyone found to be in violation risks having all accounts banned. We have several tools at our disposal to identify multiple accounts. We use them. You may think you can get away with it, but you can't. So don't.
Posting Guidelines:
When posting a new topic, please select the forum that best relates to the subject matter of your topic. If you are unsure, contact a moderator or the admin. Cross posting is not allowed and is considered spam. When posting a new topic do not use the CAPS lock. It is hard to read and is considered yelling. When replying in an existing topic it is fine to use CAPS or bold to highlight main points.
All data submitted to OzzModz.com including but not limited to accounts, usernames, signatures, posts, custom user titles and etc become the property of OzzModz.com immediately upon submission. OzzModz.com owns all content in its database without exception.
By posting content or making content available for inclusion on the OzzModz.com, including without limitation threads and comments you post to the forum, you grant OzzModz.com and its proprietors a world-wide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty free, non-exclusive, fully sub-licensable license to use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform and publicly display, and to incorporate such content into other works in any format or medium now known or later developed.
Attachments & Links:
Images, material or links to images and or material, whether real, satirical or implied, depicting obscene, indecent, or pornographic acts (at Moderator/Admin discretion) are not permitted. This includes Gifs and cartoons.
Language Guidelines:
Foul language (profanity) used in OzzModz.com will be loosely tolerated and at the moderators discretion. Derogatory statements directed at other members as well as direct or indirect personal attacks are permitted with the stipulation that you generally look like a fool when resorting to these tactics within a serious conversation on real issues. If you're comfortable playing the fool, feel free to do so.
Attacks on family members will not be tolerated and will be subject to action by an Admin/Mod. Action taken could range from a warning to banning and will be at Admin/Mod discretion. The only exception to this is IF a member brings his/her family member(s) into the conversation first.
Please note that direct or implied threats of violence towards another member and/or threats of any action meant to disrupt a member's normal life will be dealt with severely (minimum 10 day ban).
All members have the right to their own ideas, beliefs and faiths. Members have the right to constructively express these on OzzModz.com with equal respect and consideration.
Private Messaging Guidelines:
If exclusively personal contact is needed, use the Private Message system. Do not post a topic where only one member is expected to answer. Posting and Language guidelines extend to the PM system. OzzModz.com maintains the privacy of its’ users and will not access Private Messages unless ordered to do so by a Court of Law.
Posting information gained through private messages is prohibited unless specific permission is granted in a public forum and/or to a OzzModz.com staff member from the member who is a participant in the PM conversation.
Reputation System Guidelines:
Our reputation system is designed to provide a peer feedback and credibility mechanism. Abuse of the system (repeated neg repping of the same person without cause or positive rep "trading" among users) will not be tolerated. Rep system abuse will result in warnings to cease. Continued abuse will result in loss of the mechanism.
Copyright Guidelines:
Copyright infringement is illegal. OzzModz.com will enforce the law. Never post an article in its entirety. When posting copyrighted material, please use small sections with link to the article. When posting copyrighted material you MUST give credit to the author in your post. You are responsible for including links/credit, regardless of how you originally came across the material.
Advertising:
Advertising for personal gain of any kind is not permitted in any forum or by private message. Posting website links will be permitted occasionally, but will be dealt with on a case by case basis. This does not apply to member signatures.
Contact Guidelines:
When contacting the administrator or a specific moderator please make use of our Private Message system or email us. Do not post a topic in a forum regarding your situation.
Privacy:
Please do not reveal any personal contact information about yourself or others such as full name, address, phone number and even email. This is a public place and anyone is able to view your messages. Posting the personal information of other posters, regardless of how you've obtained it, is considered threatening behavior and you will likely find yourself with an involuntary vacation from this site if you repeatedly engage in such actions.
General:
All messages express the views of the author, not necessarily the views of the forum owners. The owners and moderators of OzzModz.com reserve the right to remove, edit, move or close any thread for any reason. This is a manual process, however, so please realize that we may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately. This policy goes for member profile information as well. Member signatures may not be longer than ten (10) lines.
Disciplinary Action:
If any of the above is violated a warning or infraction may be issued to the offending member. If enough infraction points add up the offending member will be banned for 10 days. If the behavior continues after the 10 day ban the user will be permanently removed from OzzModz.com. Circumstances such as spammers and egregious violators will skip the infraction system and be banned immediately. Multiple accounts are not permitted so do not re-register.
TO REPORT VIOLATIONS: If you witness a posting that violates these terms, please click the "Report" button near the lower right corner of the post and it will be reviewed by staff. OzzModz.com cannot guarantee that any action will be taken as a result of your report. Please refer to this Disclaimer page from time to time for any updates we may make to it.
