Please read and adhere to the following rules to ensure this forum remains a friendly area
General Rules & Etiquette:
While discussion is fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks, general trollness or purposeless inflammatory posts
Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short) nonsense posts, or such. The exception to this is the Word Association thread that will be cleaned every couple of weeks
Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed.
Advertising, spamming and trolling is not allowed. This includes using any part of the forums or its facilities to spam other members.
Please wait a reasonable amount of time before bumping your threads. For Sale threads this should be a minimum of 3 days. Excessive bumping will ensure you get banned.
We also do not allow posts or links to sites that are sexual in nature or violate ZeroIn standards. The moderator team shall decide what does and what does not violate community standards.
Discussion of any illegal activities is not allowed.
Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed. If discovered will result in banning and IP Blocking where appropriate.
While we are quite happy to have constructive comparative conversations about competitor's products, we will not tolerate blatant adverts or the sort of 'ooh look, yet another Airsoft forums board, threads.
When asking for help try searching for the answer first as some members may get upset answering the same question again and again.
Always try to post in the right place if you want to chat about the latest Airsoft releases, do it in "Latest News". If you are new to the forums and want to ask a question, it might be best in the "New Players" forum. If you want to sell something, the "For Sale" forums are the place to announce it. Threads created in the wrong section may be removed.
Try to use acceptable levels of English to post and 'Spell-Check' if necessary, Posts that are difficult to read or demonstrate an unwillingness to use the English language correctly may be deleted at the moderators' discretion. If English is not your first language or if your language skills are not great, please at least try. We can live with imperfect grammar; we won't live with laziness and phonetic spellings.
