You mean one could spam there if the administrator is party to it?


Thou shall not steal...images or reviews etc.
That's a little difficult to decide.


if you dont like the rules....dont sign up

That sounds fair enough. But stopping people from copying things is gonna be hard.

Btw, you have a typo on your rule SEVEN "dont ask stuid questions in " (stupid instead of stuid).

Anyway, I don't like too much that rule. What constitutes a stupid question??? You can discourage members from posting questions if they feel that their questions might be viewed as "stupid".
