Doomek, are you not seeing posts made by certain members?
A repeat violation makes for another 12hr PR and a permanent warning block. Always list your addons.

I don't know how do you do it, but I think it would be the best to send a private message to the PR'd member about their violation of the rules. Otherwise they might not notice that they have been PR'd / what did they do wrong, if they won't notice your post in the thread where you PR'd them or if they are away during that PR time... But if you already do send them private messages about the violation of the rules, then ok, I guess Doomek was kinda blind...

As it is impossible to plan for every possible situation, the moderators reserve the right to discuss extraordinary matters internally, and if necessary to take action against anyone that damages the integrity of the site, site team or moderating staff, even if there is no specific rule against what they have done/are doing.


[§1] No discussion on game-alterations that break the EULA

Discussions about copy protection or copying, backing-up, hacking, cracking or reverse engineering of BIS games, or any other software will not be tolerated. Such discussions may be deleted immediately. Any breach of this rule may result in the poster no longer having access to the site and forums. If the poster produces addons, the site-team may decide to have his/their addons banned from the site.


[§6] No posting of explicit graphics

No posting of videos, pictures and other types of graphical media containing porn, real killing, mutilations, wounds, carnage, and other disgusting/explicit images. This also includes links to pages that contain such content. There have been a number of incidents where people have linked to news sites which unbeknownst to them contains obscene images a few mouse clicks away, while we can't expect people to check every link on a site it is strongly suggested that whenever making a post about a news item the post is structured in a way that provides the information without risk of breaching the rules. If you're ever unsure as to whether or not a link should be posted on the forum feel free to PM a moderator for guidance.


[§7] No usage of content of forbidden organisations

This includes, but is not limited to organisations, symbols and propaganda messages of organizations like Nazi/neo-nazi parties, Hamas, Al-Qaeda, and other organizations that are on international lists of terrorist organizations, or forbidden by the European Union or any of it's member states. The European Union's list of forbidden people and organizations can be found [here].


[§9] No public discussion on how the forum is moderated

If you have questions/complaints/comments that you wish to make about the board or moderators or anything like that please PM them to a moderator, we will do our utmost to reply to any that we receive, please remember we have lives outside of the forum so can't promise to reply immediately. There is also a dedicated thread located [here] for discussing the moderating policy, it is meant for the general policy, not for individual cases, that should be restricted to PM.


[§11] No advertisement about non ArmA related stuff

Do not use the forum to make direct or indirect advertisement concerning something not related to ArmA. Commercial ventures that are not licensed by BIS itself, or any other party that owns the content in question, and does not allow the poster to exploit it are not allowed either.


[§12] No posting of VBS information

ArmedAssault.info is dedicated to BIS games only so absolutely no discussion of VBS in any of its incarnations is allowed.


[§13] No images are to be posted in the English section that exceed 150kb's filesize.

You may be post restricted after your first warning for failure to comply with this rule.


[§14] Images may not be made up of more than 1 file

This rule is meant to ensure that §13 is successful in keeping the forum easy to access for all people regardless of their hardware. An image must be made of a single, continuous file. When more than one file is used, we will take action against the poster.


[§4] Do not double, triple etc -post

If you make several posts in a short amount of time rather than editing your original post, this will be considered flooding. After a first warning you may be post restricted for failure to comply with this rule. This does not include accidentaly posting multiple times through browser or server errors.


[§8] Write in English

As this is the English part of the board please write in English. Don't write in any other language since the majority of the members most likely won't understand. Posting in any language other than English and providing a translation in English is also not allowed, since we cannot check the accuracy of the translation.

Aye, this is one of those rare occasions where I agree with brataccas. Try not to be too trigger happy in locking posts, some people may have more to add. Surely adding to a thread of a certain topic is better than lots of locked/unlocked threads of similar subject.

Yes, but also should be in Combat Photography IMHO.

It's only a add notation.

SaS TrooP, screenshots with information about the subject meant as a promotion for the mod should mainly be posted in the mod's thread, where it is most appropriate

Benoist, firstly: your comment is best placed here
where it actually contributes something to the topic as aposed to here.
Secondly, not all newsposters have the time to monitor the BI forums 60/60/24/7 as you seem to be expecting of them due to other comitments in real life, for example I have 2 jobs which take up almost every hour I am awake leaving little time for finding and posting news around actually having a life.

Anyway, unless you have something to actually say about the news item don't comment.

Now that's a rather useless one smiley reply. What do you wanna adress us with?

[§5] No Spam

We deem spam as making a thread or posting a reply that has no real worth, is irrelevant, useless and offers nothing to a discussion, that is posted outside the Chatter, Word Games & Jokes sub-forum of the forum's which has its own rules stickied in the sub-forum. Posts that are in place of a moderator and are misleading or not needed, or that are not in line with the topic and contribute nothing of any worth can also be considered spam. Responding to a spam-bot on the forum will be considered spam and will lead to a post restriction. Spam is not limited to text, posting an image as a means of spam or a spam'esque URL will also result in the same response from a moderator. With spam being hard to define, it is another example of something left to moderator's discretion, if in doubt ask yourself "does my reply add to the discussion in a way for the discussion to continue further"? If not then think of something "meatier" to add to the thread. Repeated spamming will result in a Warning Level increase.
