Hey Guys,

The Dev Team here has noticed that new rules need to be added and old rules NEED to be reminded to you guys and enforced.

Some very simple rules are NOT being followed. Rules are here for a reason and make the sectionmre cleaner for YOU guys.

New Rule will be embedded in a MOD Tag as well as IMP Rules.

RULES

1.No personal attacks on any team or team member. That member or team may be bad and you may not like him but NO Bashing UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!!!



2.No personal attacks on any member, be it a development team member or regular.




3.Please use the 'Thank-you Button' instead of posting, T4S, TFS or Thankyou! As this will be named as Spamming and Spamming is Strictly not allowed on IF!
The *Thank-you* button looks like this:





Moderator's Note:
5.Also post all pictures in picture gallery. Don't make separate galleries or post pictures of the day's play in the house or another topic. There is a set topic for pictures. Here is the link: Cricket Picture Gallery 2--NO COMMENTS! SUCH TOPICS WILL BE TRASHED!!!





Moderator's Note:
6.Lately we have seen member posting with just emotions. (example : 😆) Please refrain from posting just smileys.



7.Siggies have also been an issue. The common size throughout IF is 550 x 350. You can only have a TOTAL of 3-4 siggies. Please do not post your siggies side-by-side as they mess up the page layout for others; press the enter button after every siggy.



Moderator's Note:
8.
Use clean language. Profanity of any kind is not tolerated on I-F and leads to an immediate warning raise.




9.Please post all yours sigs/avis in the "Creations" thread. Here is the link: Cricket Siggies!!



10. Do not post links to other forums/sites over here. You will receive an instant raise in warning levels.



For more information about India-Forums Rules, please read the IF Code of Conduct : https://www.indiaforums.com/forum/moderators/4420/important-india-forums-code-of-conduct



Moderator's Note:
Members who don't follow the rules will be warned and in some cases warning meter raised without any PMs being sent. If a member finds another member breaking IF rules then please use
button.

Any member found violating the rules will be dealt with very strictly and will receive the warning meter right away. No personal attack , direct or indirect digs, sarcastic insinuations or defense is allowed .If any member here who is a participant in thIS is found breaking this rule will surely face the warning meter.

Hope that clarifies our stand. Also as per new rule all such topics now open or posts made on the same issues will be taken care of as the DT feels best, by either trashing those posts or closing the topics.



If you have any doubts or suggestions, please visit this link: Archive & Comments/Suggestions Rules are already there, THIS IS NOTHING NEW HERE!!!


Thanks for your time and cooperation. We hope you will help us keep this forum clean and a great environment!


Remember: Warning meter = 2 Pms and then a increas in Warning. In some cases as stated Warning Meter wil be increased without notice.

You have been warned.

Any thoughts: PM Dev Team. Not on the Open forum.

A topic which openly challenges the authority or the decision = Warning increased as Per I-F's COC.

I think this was really needed in the Cricket forum. However, I had a query to make. 😃
When we post a topic and the article is from some other site, should we write the source that is the site name or just paste it without giving credit to the site?

Thank You Dev Team members for keeping this forum spic and span! 😉 Kudos to your work! 😉

long ting man lol..i fink i read most of it lol.
dis forum is wayy betta den wot it used 2 b IMO..but obviously ppl disagree..
hmm i dont think there has ever been an issue of plagarism on IF so i dont think it is a major concern at all but improtant 2 mention i guess..

No it has happned here and contimues to happen with all things posted here on I-F...and it is still Part of Code on Conduct, and this rule Applies EVERYWHERE. Not only on Internet Sites but even in day to day work, whole point of a bibliography in things.


ok thnx 4 this..btw a question 4 dev team..
if you have a suggestion 4 a member of this cricket forum to be promoted, where should you post/PM it?
i hope the answer wnt be its full already? lol

Well if you feel someone needs to be promoted you can Pm either of the GD CM's, me or Naughty_n_nice. We always look for mor people, however only promotiond are made if Dev Teams feel they requiremore support and Promotions are not made simply as of suggestions....Othr things are tken into cnsderation also. Being a viewbie is not about how many posts you can make - Based on co-operation with others and respectful, behaviour and maturity - not getting involved in fights..so things are always being reviewd.😳


quite lykd the rule of 2 articles a day 😆😆if u need 2 make 3..PM me i will post it 4 you 😆 prevents spamming i guess?

Yes, I am posting these rules on behalf of the Dev Team here. I suggested 3 Articles at first but i think we shall see how the rule goes with 2, and review it after some time. However Articles must have Questios posed at the ed, No good posting articles w.o discussion. 😳

Nisha.

Thnx 4 the quick response saira! 😊👏
agreed with the whole plagarism thing but the point I was making was that its never been an issue in crikt forum as far as i know like no1 really claims it 2 b their own, its usually either 4rm bbc/cricinfo and its usually given or u can jus tell 😛 but anyways i did end it saying it is still kinda important..
oo yeshh when i find the time on my 'busy' schedule 😆 i will defo recommend a member of this forum 😳 😊

Thnx again.

Sorry misunderstood first part, seeing as yes member asked, i realised i had forgot to include that as a general rule.

Yes these are simple general rules reminded to everyone and just addition of new rule...but yes not been a problem here but yes like i said just a reminder anyways as we have new members all the time.😳

No problems.😊

Thankyou Umi and anon for making such an important post 😳 .. Bashing/plagarism has never been an issue so far..but Cric members are been reminded that they SHOULD NOT break any of these rules...I have seen that some basic rules are being ignored e.g size of signature...As anon already mentioned that these rules are the basic rules to undertake when posting on I.F.. If you have any queries regarding anything then feel free to pm us..well atleast me... i m always free 😆

Thankyou to all cricket members..You have been really understanding 😳... We are proud of you 👏 👏 👏
