Forum Guidelines
1 - General Board Rules
1.1 - Respect other members
Treat other forum members with respect. Excessive flames will result in a warning and abuse may result in a ban. If another member is being abusive to you either on the forum or in pm, please report it to staff.
1.2 - Language
Avoid excessive bad language. Abusive language directed personally at other members will not be tolerated.
1.3 - Racism
Racism in any way shape or form is outlawed on these forums and will be dealt with severely.
1.4 - Cheats/Hacks/Exploits
We do not support cheating in any form. Any posts describing how to cheat, exploit bugs will be deleted. Any links to cheat web sites will also be deleted. Promoting the use of cheats is also unacceptable.
1.5 - Signatures
Please keep signatures to a reasonably small size. It's no fun reading a forum when the siggies are bigger than the actual posts.
The maximum image size is 500x180 file size 40k.
If you have a full size image, you are allowed 1 line of standard sized text.
If you want to add more lines of text, for each added line you must reduce the size of your image by 20 pixels vertically. E.G. If you enter 3 lines of text you must reduce your image by 40 pixels making the max 500x140.
If you have a plain text signature you are allowed 11 lines of standard sized text including blank lines.
If you use larger sized text, use common sense and adjust accordingly.
Keep it within 'good taste'. This will be judged on a case by case basis. As a rough guide, no porn(hard or soft) or anything abusive.
1.6 - Avatars
The size limit is set to 150x150. Keep it within 'good taste'. This will be judged on a case by case basis. As a rough guide, no porn(hard or soft) or anything abusive. The remotely hosted and locally hosted avatar size limit is 20k.
1.7 - Spam
Don't do it. Useless, off topic posts may be deleted. Ads will definitely be deleted.
1.8 - Advertising sites
Advertising other Travia sites with useful content is allowed as long as that site is affiliated with TraviaHQ (pm Eraserhead for details). Advertising sites that consist of nothing but a forum is not allowed.
1.9 - Getting the mods attention
If you have a problem that you think needs a mod or admins attention, pm them directly. You will find a list of current admins/mods here. If there's a specific thread or post you want to bring to our attention please use the Report button at the top right of the post.
1.10 - Respect the staff
We don't want special treatment but we do expect to be treated in a courteous manner. Please don't give the forum staff grief when they are doing their job. Abuse will not be tolerated.
1.11 - Warez & Illegal Private Servers
We do not support warez trading or illegal private servers. Any threads advertising these will be deleted.
1.12 - Accounts
Users are allowed 1 account each only. Accounts with racist or offensive names will be deleted. Also, creating a 2nd account to bypass a suspension will result in a permanent ban.
1.13 - Different Languages
While we respect the fact that Travia is played around the world by people of many different nationalities, we must ask that when you post on TraviaHQ you must do so in English. We have to be able to moderate posts and this would not be possible if many different languages where used. Threads and posts made in other languages may be edited or deleted.
1.14 - Communication with admins
Communications between admin and members via email, pm or any other means regarding any issue relating to forum rules and decisions are deemed private. Posting these private messages publicly may result in account suspension or banning.
Please be aware that this is not a complete and comprehensive list of rules and is intended to act only as a guide to what we consider acceptable conduct.
