    I think there should be reputation counter on the left. By this, one will know who the other person is! I mean is he a pro sbk rider or just a regular commuter.
    This will reduce a lot of flaming.

      Please add "Piracy/ Linking is prohibited" to the above list.

      It is NOT mentioned in rules, and yet a MOD infracted a new member on this issue...

      You ever know how depressed members may get on being infracted? I know it from an another site ...

      My only point is --> Rules should be properly framed, before you infract members. Sorry for talking "seedhi baat".

      just ma' 2 cents, because I love Xbhp, and want to see it improve ...

        @Samarth: It is totally understood that any link to any movie/ song/ race/ games/ etc. is surely not allowed here at xBhp. Still, I'll add this in the header post so that members might get a clear idea about the same.

        However, I am also aware of the fact that there are a very few members who actually read this thread before posting anything (I wonder if there are ANY who actually read it). So, I don't see ANY benefit coming out of this. Nevertheless, I'll edit the header post and add this as a pointer.

        As for getting depressed on being infracted, it is just a forum, one still has the real life to attend to!

          I can understand that. I have an idea. Sunny bro can EDIT these rules, adding all these points here :-->

              If you seek an explanation for everything, then well, I guess there are a 1000 reasons to point your finger(s) at a MOD! It is on every member to follow these. We, moderators cannot really keep a tab on each and every thread/ post/ member.

              Is it so darn hard to understand!?

                Whattttt ????? Next thing, you'll want it properly mentioned that rape/murder is not permitted also !! Its a known an implied fact that piracy and intellectual property right violation is an offence. This forum and others is just a reflection of the real world and anything not allowed in the real world is not allowed here too.

                Sorry to be the devil's advocate here, but agreed we all kno 'IT' happens !
                But pls keep it to a minimum, and to PMs and delete the links, messages after the intented use is over !!

                Coz, you never know when a production company etc might decide to actively persue voilators!! In that case they might even drag xbhp to court too !! No really !!!

                Motogp.com has in the past actively persued youtube and others !!
                Hope you understand !!

                "Use of common sense" thats the imperative word !!
                Kawasaki Ninja : Because lazy sunday afternoons should be despatched at 160 kmph!!!
                Hyosung Aquila : Because sometimes you need to look cool while riding at 40 kmph and you can do that only on a cruiser !!!

                  +1.

                  And please, leave the MODS alone. People don't understand that moderating thread is not an easy job. And they are not doing it as a full time job. So before shouting "Mods", see if there is anything YOU can do about it. If it is out of your hands, thats where mods step in.

                    @ sukant: It is necessary, because in some sites, link posting is allowed... I'm myself a moderator in such a site.

                    The new member coming to your site, you never informed him the rules, and expect him to follow them?

                    @ pranay: All I'm saying is I expect all rules at the Registration page, including Smiley, language, etc. Everything in 1 place.... It's possible.

                      Alright, this nonsense has gone far enough.

                      Do you know about things called "Implied terms"? Do google them up. Not everything has to be spelled out so that ignorant folks can be spoon fed. It is an implied term that responsible web sites do not promote piracy. End of discussion.

                      Also, that website that you moderate for is little more than a piracy hub. I took a look at it and ALL I saw there were links to pirated games/ songs/ videos etc. Trust me, that place is NOTHING to be proud about. NOTHING.

                              Hey if I am not wrong we all are here due to riding and bikes right... AND if we all remember, the xBhp site is here to make us all together of what we call it a "brotherhood"... and yes their are rules to be followed on the xBhp site and on the road too.... and all are aware of it, still some follow and some dont. Now mods are here to correct and make people follow the rules and so are the police on the road too....... Now dont get me wrong- but then bro how many times if you see a person riding without a helmet u go to a traffic police and inform him mmm.... though its good of you that you helping the mods for things not to go unnoticed but still Lost Soul just chillax man....take it easy bro...

                              whatever happened is happened let it go brother.......the more you hold it tight the more it will start weighing.

                              Save the Earth - We are the one who are running out of time, as Earth will take it own time to heal but that time may not be enough for us.

                                Lostsoul: While I appreciate the effort, it'd be great if you stop seeking revenge for the one infraction that you got. The moderation team acts on posts that they see and the ones reported by responsible members too, but that doesn't mean you have to search the archives for every thread ever for offenses. You are reporting, what? A 10 month old post?

                                I have removed the link, but if you're seeking an infraction on a post that is almost a year old, I'd suggest you get a hold of yourself. You got infracted. Big deal. There's still a life outside the internet. Go live it for a while. Oh, and do report anything RECENT that you find are not adhering to the rules.

                                P.S. This goes for you too, samarth. No need to get all uppity with the report post button (You know what I'm talking about).
