1. Respect & Civility

   • Treat every member with respect. Challenge ideas — not people.
   • No excessive name-calling, personal attacks, harassment, trolling, or LEO/military bashing.
   • Do not debate moderator decisions in public — use private messages.
   • Never share another member’s private info (name, photos, messages, etc.) without consent.

2. No Discrimination No discriminatory comments based solely on race, color, ethnicity, sex, sexuality, age, nationality, religion, or on any other basis.
3. Banned Members: Do not post for or about banned users. They may appeal using the “Contact Us” link at the bottom of the page.
4. Signatures & Avatars: Keep them family-friendly. No obscene language, harassment, or prohibited messages. Moderators may edit or remove them.
5. No Adult Content No nudity, sexual images, jokes, or links — including scantily clad photos. Language should remain respectful. Keep the site family-friendly.
6. Profanity: Profanity should be kept minimal and avoided as possible. We have a language filter — don’t try to bypass it.
7. Copyright & DMCA: Post only content you own or have permission to share. No copyrighted material, trademarks, or illegal uploads.
8. Legal Topics: Do not give advice that breaks any law (local, state, federal, or international). This includes:

   • Images of illegal firearm modifications
   • Suggestions about illegal activity
   • Discussions of deadly force that may not be legal everywhere When in doubt — do not post.

9. Thread Necromancy (Bumping Old Topics): Reviving topics inactive for 6+ months is discouraged unless you have new, valuable information. Otherwise, start a fresh thread and link the old one.
10. Sources and Claims: Please support claims with reliable sources as possible. If sources are not available, please make clear, ask for verification, or post in Conspiracy Corner.
11. Duplicate Topics: Search before posting.
12. Off-Topic Posts: Stay on the forum’s focus. Off-topic posts will be moved to Off-Topic Lounge or deleted.
13. Self-Promotion (Non-Commercial): It is okay to link your own blog, YouTube, or podcast once per relevant thread if it adds value.

    No repeated plugging or “check my channel” spam.

14. AI-Generated Content: Clearly label any text, image, or advice created by AI (ChatGPT, Midjourney, etc.). Unlabeled AI spam will be removed.
15. Emergency/Disaster Threads: During real-time crises (hurricanes, blackouts, etc.), one pinned megathread per event.

    New threads on the same event will be merged.

16. Children & Minors: Users under 13 are not allowed (COPPA compliance). No photos of children without parent/guardian consent. No grooming, predatory behavior, or private messaging minors. Violation of this will result in an immediate ban.
17. Account Security: Do not share passwords, 2FA codes, or login links. Report phishing attempts to moderators immediately.
