    Ok here is the newer charter for this Forum.Everyone read "BEFORE" you post.There will be no warning for breaking the rules you will just be banned.


    Have a read of these and you will be fine

    - Don’t link (in any way, shape or form i.e hotlinks, pics etc) to material which may be offensive or encourage people to do silly things. Examples? URL’s on where to get home piercing kits, genital piercings or tattooing. Be sensible.
    Perma-ban for this. (We have an extreme forum which you may request access to, more on this later)

    - Try not to slag off other people’s tattoos or piercings. If it is a poorly executed piercing/tattoo fine, constructive criticism is ok e.g “shading could be better”, “placement is a bit off”. Common sense comes into play here again.

    - Threads like “does it hurt to get X pierced/tattood”, “where/what should I get inked on my body?”, “how much is X to get pierced?” are frowned upon. We will lock them straight off. If you have a basic idea and have some decent links people will be more than willing to help.

    - Asking for information on where to get pierced/inked when underage will be locked.

    - As I mentioned earlier we do have an extreme forum for the more heavier side of things. (It’s pretty quiet to be honest). It is a private forum, if you want to talk about scarification, implants, suspension etc. request access. It may be given to you. Access is totally up to the moderators. If you post it in the regular forum it will be moved.

    - If you misbehave you will be banned for a period of time and given an infraction. If you continue to be bold you will be permanently banned from the forum. A 3 strike system is in place for offences. For severe breachs of the rules a ban will be handed out straight away.

    Further to this if you PM the moderator(s) who didn't ban you asking to be unbanned, we will add another 2 weeks onto it. Trying to turn us against each other doesn't work...

    - Other common sense rules apply, no trolling, flaming, fighting with other users and all that jazz. No pervy or leery comments directed at people. Take it to PM if you must.

    Newest addition (25/12/08);

    - Causing trouble in this forum, for whatever reason is a bannable offence. This rule is really only taken into action in serious breaches of mis-conduct and is at the discretion of the moderators.


    Thanks
    Richie, Will and DamoElDiablo

    em people do......in the food drink forum

    whats wrong with people asking where to get it done? someone with no experience or knowledge on the subject may wish to aquire the knowledge of someone who is experienced so as to get the safest/cleanest/best place for their tatoo. its a big deal and you will have it for the rest of your life...you want the best posible....of course whatever place you ask in will tell you they are the best

    whats wrong with people asking where to get it done?

    We`re on about people asking the question "Whereabouts on the body do I get it done??"

    For places ie. Tattoo shops we have a stickied thread.

    Totally agree!

    Too many boards get bogged down with stupid questions and end up defeating the whole purpose of the forum..


    Nice job!
