Here's the rules.

By registering on this board you consent to the following:

Remember this is a Community Board owned by a Private Organization, you may be removed at any time without warning for any reason the staff deems necessary or appropriate.

1. Blatant trolling is not allowed. If you have nothing constructive to offer, your account will be banned. Don't come here looking to do nothing but start trouble.

2. Post topics in the appropriate section.

3. Keep your avatars and signatures clean. By using an inappropriate avatar/signature, you may offend other users on this board. This is a public place and it will not be tolerated.

4. Keep Topic "Titles" Clean.

5. If you feel something negative towards a user/post, please try to state your case in a calm and respectable fashion. Replying to the post just to stir the pot and not offering anything of value is highly frowned upon. Please do not cause or participate in drama on the boards. Try to handle the issue with the person in PM. Users will be warned once, put on temporary ban of 7 days the second time and third time you are gone.

6. Vendor "Discussion/Reviewing/Complaints" are allowed. However, it is not allowed to the point that you can make a post in every thread the vendor participates in to ruin his day, etc. Make your thread in whatever section you feel appropriate, state your case, and be done with it. Harassment will not be tolerated.

7. Post Whoring is not against the rules, but please try not to clutter up the board. Your posts can and will be deleted if they are deemed not necessary. Determining what is Post Whoring is at the sole discretion of the administration team.

8. ABSOLUTELY NO ADVERTISING in any threads or advertising a business in your avatar, user name, location, signature, or web page link in your profile. Advertising requires sponsorship. (If you wish to advertise, contact an Admin or Moderator for a sponsorship information. This includes the business that built your car, you buy parts from, or your buddies shop.) The ONLY EXCEPTION is existing Untamed Tuners sponsors, which may be linked in your signature. If you're not sure who is a sponsor, PM an admin or moderator. This also applies to linking to companies while discussing products or services. The ONLY place these links are allowed is the Shop and Parts review forum.

9. ABSOLUTELY no advertising a competing car forum of any kind, in any place in your profile, signature, avatar, or user name unless given permission by an Admin. This does not mean that talking about something on another car forum, linking to a post on another car forum or posting about events/gatherings by other clubs/forums is prohibited. If you are unsure, don't hesitate to pm an Admin.

10. Moderators and Administrators decisions are final. There will be no discussion, talking, questioning, or otherwise asking why a moderator or administrator has taken an action on a post, thread, or individual. DO NOT ask why someone was banned or why you were banned in the public forum. USE A PM IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM. Openly disagreeing or questioning a moderator or administrators decision will get you immediately and permanently banned. No trying to "rally the troops" in support of your efforts to question a moderator or administrator.

11. Location will now be mandatory when filling out your profile info upon registration.

12. If for any reason you are believed to be a hacker or spammer upon registration, your IP may be banned and account deleted. We have been getting quite a few fake accounts so this is a way to protect our members and filter fake accounts. This goes out mainly to those who create an account and say they're from "USA" on Location and yet their IP shows they're in North Korea. If you register and your profile seems to be suspicous, it will be looked over. If found to be fraudulant, it can be deleted and your IP banned without notice. If this happens and you are NOT a hacker/spammer, please contact us via our contact us section on the main page and we will take care of it asap.


Rules will be added as they are necessary. We will not stand for abuse of our site. We will do whatever is necessary to keep this place clean and free for users.

Arguing with the administration team does not win you points. If you have an issue, take it up in private.

If you have any complaints about how you have been treated, rules violations, something that was allowed that should not have been allowed, a post of yours that was locked, deleted, moved, etc., please send a Moderator or Administrator a PM. If we don't know about the problem, we cannot fix it.
