Allrighty with the steady flow of Newbies and all I think we need to have a sit down with them and some of the members on here...
PM's....
This is a fourm, not aim chat. Keep conversations to PM's and such it helps keep the fourms from getting cluttered up with nonsense for people to read.
:Example:
Hey redracer69 how are you doing.
That is a post that is better used as a PM.
Posts...
I'm sure many of you guys have been called post whores and such, dont stress it some people just get a little upset when you guys post over and over again. We have many sections on the board surf around and post everywhere instead of just the open!
Please try and use atleast some sort of grammar and attempt to spell words correctly. It makes it alot easyier and it makes you look a lot better on the fourms! Also posts with good information in them is where its at, we come on here for quads hence atvriders.com we dont want to read someone bashing someone in a thread about a 400ex carb.
If you have a problem with your four wheeler post it in the correct fourm for the best answers, just because more people are in open fourm does not mean everyone in open is a expert for your quad. Chances are the guys that know the most about your quad are in the designated section for your atv!
Be nice to the mods...
When the mods close your thread, its for a reason. There is no reason why you should make another thread protesting the subject. Politely PM the mod that closed your thread or any mod and discuss the problem with them. This helps keep the fourms clean and the problem isnt made into a huge ordeal with someone getting banned if need be!
Site rules....
1. If you don't like someone, make believe you do or don't respond. Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
2. Leave the flamers to the moderators, don't respond.
3. Refrain from swearing, making sexual and drug references,or creating alternate usernames.
4. Feel free to attach ATV related pictures to you posts. Pictures of riders without helmets will be deleted - riding without a helmet is very dangerous and is an activity strongly comdemned by ATVriders.
5. No commercial advertising of any sort, except for advertising for our sponsors/paid advertisers - including banners in posts, avatars, or signature lines, website addresses, phone numbers, or messages (public or private). This includes users advertising for different shops or companies. We enjoy all shops taking part in ATVriders but no contact information, including websites or phone numbers. The administrator alone will make the final decision on what is advertising but as a simple rule it covers all retail shops, chop shops, and product manufacturers big and small. Manufacturers are strongly encouraged to post information on their own products, but please no ads or prices. Violation of this rule will result in one warning and then a permanent ban.
6. ATVriders.com does not promote, certify, or endorse any of the sellers, buyers, or seller's merchandise. There is always risk involved with purchasing from unknown individuals online. You alone assume all risk and responsibility for those transactions. You alone are responsible for taking necessary precautions to protect yourself from potential internet fraud. ATVriders.com will play no role whatsoever in transactions initiated by individuals acting on their own behalf in the Classifieds section.

These are the 3 that are the most broken rules out of all of them. Follow these rules and it will make the board fun for everyone! Just because you've been here since 2001, 2002,2003 or 2004 doesnt give you the right to be a royal prick to someone asking a question!
feel free to post anymore information for the noobs and memebers I took the time to type this up and asked some members for their adivce so dont ruin this.

DO NOT TURN THIS INTO A FLAME FEST
