Forum Rules...please read

CODE OF CONDUCT

Welcome to the Games section of USJR Forum.

As part of USJ-R’s commitment to make the USJR Forum a great place to meet and interact, discuss and share ideas pertaining to USJ-R, we require that you abide by our Code of Conduct. We have tried our best to make the policies as fair and just as possible.

If there’s only one rule to follow, it is this: R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Respect your fellow forum members, Administrators and Moderators. Sometimes ideas will clash and not everyone will agree with someone. But just keep “RESPECT” in mind and you won’t be breaking any rules.

The guidelines and rules listed below explain what behavior is expected of you and what behavior you can expect from other community members. Note that the following guidelines are not exhaustive, and may not address all manner of offensive behavior. As such, the Administrators and Official USJ-R Forum Moderators shall have full discretion to address any behavior that they feel is inappropriate. USJR reserves the right to suspend your access to the forums at any time for reasons that include, but are not necessarily limited to, your failure to abide by these guidelines.

We ask that you treat fellow forumers with respect and courtesy and that you conduct yourself in a civilized manner when participating in the forums.

These policies are not language-restrictive. Any message or language will always be subject to the penalties listed, whether it is in English, Filipino, or any other language.

It is the responsibility of the players to be aware of these guidelines. Failure to be so informed does not release, nor excuse them from coverage of these guidelines.

SANCTIONS

All inappropriate posts and activities will be reviewed by the Administrators, and Forum Mods. The new sanction system is now simple and easier to understand.

FINAL WORD

We all know that this is a forum that is open to all internet people. Note that you are posting in the USJ-R Forum with thousands of other people who may or may not share your ideas towards the forum. Language, posts, messages or images that may not be offensive for you may be deemed offensive or insulting by others. Kindly consider the fact that your actions may have a different effect on other people.

The mutual element here is R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Although different persons may have different opinions, let's keep a healthy attitude and respect each other as individuals. The Golden Rule holds true here: "Do unto others what you want others to do unto you"

There are only a couple of rules that you need to remember so that your Forum experience will be a memorable one: 1) the Golden Rule (above) and 2) Have FUN!

What's a game if you're not having fun?

Sarap Dito!!

Best Regards,

The USJ-R Forum Administrators and Forum Mods
