Forum:

 

  • The Flory models forum has not implemented a specific Model Critique’s area, as such the following applies:

    • This is to be a friendly and helpful place, where novice and experienced modelers alike can interact and help each other improve the overall modeling experience.

    • There is to be no criticism of others or other’s work. We are all here to help and therefore all comments shall be given in a positive worded and constructive manner.

    • If you notice an inaccuracy on one of the models presented on Flory models and you have some carefully worded constructive criticism to offer, then we suggest to contact the modeler in question privately via means of the PM system.

    • Comments received about your posted work should be taken not as criticism but seen as general assistance and helpful advice. Should you receive offending comments please contact the Moderator for his review and action.

  • If you see anything in the forums or chat room that you are unhappy about, please report it to the Moderators of the forum.

  • Remember, we all started somewhere. No question is a stupid question. Please help others at all times.

 

Posting rules:

  • Ensure you are posting a message in the most appropriate Forum Sub Category. Any posts deemed to be in the wrong place will be moved without prior contact and is the Forum Moderator’s job duty and right.

  • Do not exclusively use CAPITAL LETTERS! This is considered SHOUTING on a forum. Your keyboard has a ‘Caps Lock’; please turn it off when posting within the Forum or Chat room. This includes topic titles and message posts/replies.

  • Swearing is strictly forbidden. This also includes substituting letters with asterisks (“***”). If in doubt, don’t use the word. Offending posts will be deleted and the offending member will be issued a first warning.

  • Keep all posts on-topic, this rule is flexible and diversity is welcomed, Flory models reserve the right to remove/edit posts.

  • You must use clear and legible English at all times. Some leeway is given if English is not your first language but please remember that this is a UK/USA website and English is the 1st choice of language for postings. Moderators may alter or delete posts that don’t make sense because of poor spelling and/or grammar.

  • The Moderators’ decision is always final and NOT open for public discussion, however, a Moderator will usually contact you via the board’s Private Message e-mail system to explain why a particular action has been taken, although this is not implicit.

  • The Moderators reserve the right to not notify a Member of their actions but you are encouraged to contact them if you feel aggrieved.

  • No spamming is permitted! This includes anything in your signature. We reserve the right to remove posts, without warning or reason, if we deem the subject inappropriate or not within the best interest of the Flory Models Forum.

  • If you are posting a general question, then check that your question has not been answered before, use the search feature before posting. This also applies to news and information; you may be duplicating a thread that has previously been started. If this is the case then expect the new thread to be locked with a link posted to the original.

  • Choose an appropriate subject line for your “Topic Title” when starting a new thread. Think about this carefully; describe what you are about to post. Things like “In need of help” or “This is amazing” doesn’t really help a viewer of the Forum and decide if they want to spend the time opening and reading your post.

  • When in doubt please use common sense, self-moderation is the best way to keep Flory models a clean and tidy Message Board.

  • If a member receives 3 official warnings then their posting rights will be removed and their account indefinitely suspended. In other words you may receive 2 official warnings and the third will instantly and automatically result in a ban. Under no circumstances will official warnings be removed or revoked; once one is issued it shall remain. Sometimes Moderators will deem it necessary to only issue a verbal warning, however if you ignore this and persist to break rules then further action will be taken and the verbal warning may count as an official warning, in addition to any further warning(s).

  • If you feel a post violates any of above rules, is offensive in any way, please bring this issue to the attention of a moderator, don’t try to resolve the issue yourself.

  • Please note that with each post, your IP address is recorded and stored electronically for future reference and case disputes needs.
