Guidelines to comply with for all members while posting
1. Be specific. Including detailed information in your post will help other users understand your issue. Don't go off-topic.
2. Do not post in Capital Letters, so set the Caps Lock Off! It is not a good forum ethics to post in capital letters, as it is not easy to read the post, and it may imply that you are shouting. The same applies to Bold letters.
3. Do not quote very large posts completely full of pictures/videos when replying - keep the topic readable!
4. When posting prices in local currencies, be sure to always include the value also in Dollars ($).
5. When your question or problem is solved, please add the tag [Solved] to the beginning of your title.
6. If any user asks you for personal information, such as an account number, address, password or credit card number, do not provide it ? instead report the user to a moderator.
7. If any member breaks the Forum Rules, you should report it using the feature "Report to moderator" existing in every post.
