1. Respect and Courtesy: Treat fellow members with respect and courtesy. Refrain from engaging in personal attacks, insults, or any form of harassment. Disagreements are natural, but express your opinions in a constructive and polite manner.

2. Appropriate Content: Contribute content that is relevant to the discussion. Avoid posting content that is offensive, discriminatory, obscene, or violates any applicable laws. This includes but is not limited to hate speech, explicit content, and any form of illegal activity.

3. Privacy and Personal Information: Respect the privacy of others. Do not share personal information about yourself or others, including contact details, addresses, or any other private information. This also includes avoiding the use of someone else's real name without their explicit consent.

4. Intellectual Property: Do not post content that infringes on the intellectual property rights of others. Respect copyright, trademark, and other proprietary rights. If you share content created by others, provide proper attribution and ensure you have the right to do so.

If you have a product or service to share, ensure it is relevant to the community and adds value to the discussion.

6. Stay on Topic: Keep discussions on the relevant topic of the forum board. Off-topic posts may be moved or removed. If you have a new topic to discuss, consider starting a new thread to keep conversations organized.

7. Reporting Violations: If you come across content that violates our guidelines or rules, report it to the moderation team using the appropriate tools provided on the forum. Do not attempt to handle violations yourself, as this may escalate the situation.

8. Multiple Accounts: Users are limited to one account per person. Creating multiple accounts with the intent to deceive or disrupt the community is strictly prohibited.
