RULES

This is a peaceful hangout forum for Transsexual, Transgender, CrossDressing, Androgynous, Intersexed, Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual people and their friends, family, lovers and all other gender variant people. No admirers, advertisers, spammers or religious preachers. All violators will be removed without warning. This forum does not cater to younger audiences. Users sign up at their own discretion.

1. Proper pronouns for all users will be used. If someone says they are male, female or neither then address them as such. FTMs, female to male transsexuals are male. MTFs, Male to female transsexuals are female.

2. Avatars may only be at max 150 x 150 pixels and may not break any rule, this involves no nudity or socially incorrect pictures.

3. Signatures can only have one picture no bigger then post length x 220 pixels in height. No HTML linking or smilies allowed in order to protect our users from potential threats. If anything insulting is found in your signature then your right to having a signature will be removed.

4. Users may not give out specific information on the public forum that could lead a person, such as a browsing guest, to the users full identity. A example of something not allowed posted on our forum is a home address.

5. Profane language and the use of such language is not encouraged but is not frowned upon up to a certain extent. Profanity will be tolerated up to a certain extent before a post is removed.

6. Nudity and explicit sexual content is not to appear on this forum at all. This mainly addresses images and links leading to images and websites containing nudity and other explicit items, as well as threads including vulgar sexual material such as pedophilia. We are adults here so keep things tasteful.

7. Spamming and multiple topics of the same topic posted by the same user will not be allowed.

8. One account for each user unless another is really needed. Any user abusing multiple accounts will be promptly removed and banned.

9. Respect all users and you will be respected. We are all here to make friends and hang out. Anyone found disturbing the peace on the forum will have their posts deleted. You should know when you cross the line from voicing your opinion to personally attacking a user.

10. Racism or sexism will not be tolerated in any form.

11. All posts must be made in English. This is for moderation purposes, as we cannot guarantee that users comply with the rules if we do not understand what they have written.

12. Posts with viruses or any other harmful computer software, false information, libel or chain letters, or invitations implicit or otherwise to take part of pyramid schemes, gambling or illicit drugs will get you banned.

13. We do not allow posts that encourage or give instructions to self-medicating of any kind, including but not limited to: talk of dosage amounts or any type of talk with detailed information on hormones - herbal or otherwise. We are not doctors and you should be speaking to your doctor about these things, not us. Even if a user happens to be a doctor, this is in no capacity an appropriate forum in which to practice medicine. Any user found dispensing medical advice through this forum, whether legally a medical professional or not, through public posts or private messages, will be removed from the forum. For liability reasons, such conduct is unacceptable to genderfriendly.net.

14. Do not advertise any other website, forum, business or product without permission from an admin. If you are caught advertising in any shape or form, the link(s) will be removed and you will be dealt with accordingly.

FORUM MODERATION

ACCOUNTS:

All users need to be approved by me (Zabrak) or another admin to be allowed to use the forum. Users must show they are trustworthy to us before we give them full membership. Full membership allows use of the forum's private messaging function. If you have been on the forum for a long time and think you should have full membership then feel free to post in the Q&A forum to ask for a membership upgrade.

POSTS:

Mods will work as quickly as they can to move/edit posts or ban users. I am trying an open forum for users to post without needing to have their posts approved. If this gets abused then I will make the forum so that every single post will need to be approved by a mod before it shows up on the forum.
