Registering

1. Please, when registering, no offensive or vulgar names. If we think it's just to offensive, we'll PM you and request that you give us another name to change it to.
2. If you don't like your name, PM us and we can change it. BUT we will not change your name every other day, so pick a good one and stick with it.


<span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'>Posting
1. By no means are you allowed to insult someone, especially based on their name, religion, political views, race etc. If you feel something has gotten way to out of hand, PM an admin and let us know so we can deal with it accordingly.

If the problem ensues, we'll most likeyl have a talk amongst the admins and other staff and you will be warned and if the problem ensues, most likely banned.

2. If you want to advertise on our board, please feel free. But ONLY do so in the designated area. I can not stress this enough! As well, if you post an ad on our board, there must be an area on your board where we can return the favour without registering.

3. SPAM is bad. No one likes it in the cans and no one likes it here either. Members who spam are most likely going to be warned and if they incesintley continue will probably be banned. As well, the Cbox is there to let you communicate with other members, not a little chalk board where you can say whatever you want and post links. Believe me, if someone posts a link, I won't hesitate to get a whole new Cbox.

4. Please, no offensive language. This is a big no no. Of course, the occasional swear word here and there is ok, but don't over do it and especially NO vulgar language towards any member. This is what we here at Heartstring Quartet call a big fat NO.


Artists and Coding Ranks
1. All members starting off must post in the Members area of the galleries and then from there will be sorted accordingly based on the staffs opinions. Do not PM someone and ask when you'll be sorted, because stuff like that just makes us go slower : )

If you don't like where you've been placed, feel free to PM an admin or global mod and try to appeal it, but have avery good argument.</span>

Other Stuff
1. No photos of yourself. Simply put, this is for your own protection. If you want to post some photos of yourself you do it at your own discretion in a designated topic, but NO where else.
2. Before I forget, NO RIPPING OF ANYTHING. I like that people can claim there work. We at Heartstring Quartet don't tolerate this in any way, shape or form. If you do this without specific consent from the owner, you will be banned. Seriously. No joke. Don't take anything from another site and call it your own. We respect every site out there and all the hard work they put into their stuff. No ripping of coding or graphics.
