Welcome to The Big Brother Forum forums! We hope that this message board serves as a central hangout for everything Big Brother! Naturally to keep things in order, safe, and fun we must put in place a few rules for all of the members!  If you're ever unsure about a rule or need some more clarification, feel free to PM any staff member.

This website is intended for mature audience only. It contains topics which may include coarse language and minor sexual connotation. If you feel offended by the nature of this website, please refrain from reading
  
Disobeying the following rules may cause post deletion, a verbal warning or account suspension:

  • Respect all members and staff members!
    All members must respect other members and staff members. Please be kind and courteous to other members. Do not harrass them and keeping your cool around others. We have zero tolerance for personal attacks and name calling.

  • Advertising & recruiting will not be tolerated.
    Message administration for advertisement or for an affiliation link exchange.

  • Do not backseat moderate.
    We have a team of moderators that keep our board clean. If you spot a post that breaks our rules, hit the "REPORT" button under the respective post (it's in the bottom right corner). The post will be sent to a moderator to review. Please do NOT correct the member yourself!

  • Do not SPAM
    Please refrain from posting one or two word answers as this adds nothing to the conversation. This also includes reposting of quotes with no substance as well as replying with only smilies.

  • You may never under any circumstances post the following...
    *Links to harmful websites
    *Any sites that are considered illegal by US law
    *Links to pornographic, obscene, or rated "R" websites
    *Impersonate a staff member in any way

  • Offensive username's will be declined (this includes towards house guests).

  • When posting an article or interview please post the link to the content. Please state your source.

  • Topics of a similar nature will be merged

  • Threads that sway from the main topic will be split or locked

  • Please be considerate of others and do not post spoilers in topic titles


    Consequences, warnings, and suspensions
    In most cases, a verbal warning will be issued and/or warning level increase. If you are becoming increasingly problematic and severe and you do not abide to the rules, you will receive a permanent ban to your account.

    Verbal warnings are  "unofficial" and are just a reminder for you to follow the rules as you're swaying a bit. Warning level increases are official warnings (you will be PMed about this). If you break numerous rules within a short amount of time your account will be banned for three days.


    Signatures
    Try and make your signatures as appealing as possible and as less annoying as possible! Here are some guidelines for signatures:

        * Images in a sigs cannot be bigger 500x200 pixels total.
        * Don't use HUGE fonts or UGLY colors
        * Signatures with more than 6 lines of text will be cleared
     


    *Rules are subject to change at ANY time
