xBhp - Forum Etiquette

[scarecrow]

good stuff - another point from my side, i sometimes see people posting in their local language in a public thread, which i personally feel is offensive and such discussions should be limited to personal 1 to 1 talk only and not on forums...just my personal feeling

[L.P.]

@aryan Da: very good! Now keep this text copied every time you approve a intro,paste it there..

1 More thing you can add to your post da:
That writing in Caps means that the person is shouting!

Like Aryan Wud say when i post OT's: "L.P.! SHUT UP!! "

That Actualy means aryan da is now,and is telling me to stop OT otherwise i wud not be able to login into xBhp using My ID..

i would suggest to have this in the list of the main threads i.e. Tourer, Superbike, etc.
All the guidelines, Usage of forum, Uploading pics, should be under that.!

Aryan : Nice list but implemetation is going to be tough , I have observed that after this thread was posted today itself you can find many posts not adhering to the these standards.

If we can implement xbhp police concept again it might help in solving most of the forum etiquettes.

@Nikks: There is a limit to what a moderator/ administrator can do. Members, after all make up the MAJORITY of any forum.

Yes I agree , but when an organisation grows so does the management.

Its all about monitoring and teaching users/members the correct way to particiapte in forums.Once most of the members are following the guidelines as suggested by you , monitoring will be very less.Someone has to take the onus of putting things on track 'now' so that these don't happen in the future.

Is it possible that whenever a new member signs up,he is directly brought to this thread first?

There is no way that can be done, although like a few members above have already said, perhaps, the said pointers can be implemented somehow in the registration process itself, so that the particular member who is registering gets to read and go through the pointers before actually starting to post.
