Rules for our Home Forum

Welcome to the BadCoAirsoft.com and the home of MODERN WARZONE!!!!!

It is the intent of Modern Warzone that players use this forum as a tool for meeting each other, building relationships and developing the Airsoft community. It is our belief that individual players and groups should take care to present a positive image of our sport to the non-Airsoft community rather than the popular politics of other Organizations.

This is what is expected of you (and what you can expect) as a participant on this forum.

1. Civility: This is a non-negotiable. When you visit this forum, as a guest or as a registered user, you are still a guest of Modern Warzone. You are expected to be on your best behavior. Personal slights, insults or other forms of attack against other users will not be tolerated. People can jokingly and even seriously disagree without becoming uncivil. Like Mom used to say, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all!" So mind your manners.

2. Sense of Humor: Try to have one! There are a lot of “characters” on this forum. Good-natured teasing and smack talking are constants around here. Please take a moment and think about the intent of a post before you fly off the handle and get your feelings all hurt. Try sending a PM to the person before you flame them for something they posted. It very well could be that you just didn’t get the joke.

3. Freedom of Speech: It does not exist here. This is a privately owned forum; it is not paid for with dues from the forum members. We encourage people to share their views, but it must be done in light of the rule of civility. Before you get upset about whatever someone posted in “YOUR” thread, remember: this forum (and the thread) is owned by Modern Warzone, not you! The Admin has the ability to delete or edit ANY thread on the forum. While this power has been exercised rarely in the past, and only as a last resort, rest assured, it will be used when necessary and much more often.

4. Content: Keep it clean. Foul language, vulgarity, sexually explicit images, or other such nonsense will be deleted without prior warning. Users may receive a private warning after the fact to not repeat such inappropriate postings. Repeated infractions of this rule will result in banning of the offending user. Besides the type of content, please make sure your posts actually have content. "Bump" posts that do not actually add to the thread will be deleted. If you want to post information about or invitations to Non-STAC/Modern Warzone events, as a courtesy, please contact Modern Warzone directly prior to posting such information on the forum.

5. Images: Personal avatars and other images posted on the Modern Warzone forum must not violate the prohibition against sexually explicit or vulgar content. Offending images will be promptly removed without warning. All images in posts, signatures and avatars are subject to removal or editing without notice. Avatars should be kept to 100w x 150h pixels. Signature images should be kept to 300 x 500 pixels. Images in threads should not be wider than the normal column width of the thread. 640 x 480 is a good display size. This keeps the forum easier to read. If you post images larger than this, you may be asked to resize them, or they may just be modified for you.

6. NO SPAM! There is no free advertising on this site. B/S/T threads may be posted in "The OT" for personal items being sold. If you have a commercial product or service you would like to bring to the attention of our members, you must first submit it to the Admin. We will consider it, but no promises. This applies to other Airsoft/Paintball fields/games as well. Unsolicited spam will be deleted without warning and may subject the user to having his account removed and/or banned.

7. Admin Discretion: The Administration of this forum reserves the right to apply any, all or none of these rules to varying degrees whenever it feels like it. Please refer to the above comments about Freedom of Speech and Private Ownership.

8. No Politics: This site was NOT created for any Organisation to post up problems or unnecessary bashing of any sort. All organizations are welcomed here but have no say so on any matter that happens on our premises. The politics are for the politicians. We are here to play and have a good time, not gossip. The Referee in our field will take care of any misconduct and will ask the players to sit a game or go home. The same player will be allowed to play the next up coming game. The only players that can be Banned from our games are only if they break our SAFETY RULES or if they are UNSAFE PLAYERS THEMSELVES.(This will be updated on our FIELD RULES)

As a user, if you see any posts that you think are in violation of these rules, please notify the Moderators or Admins.

If at any time you have any questions, complaints or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact one of the site Admins.

Thanks!
