Forum Rules

While it is virtually impossible for us to review messages or confirm the validity of information posted, we try to monitor the contents of messages that are posted. We are not responsible for any false information or inappropriate comments and we do not vouch for the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any message. The messages express the views of the author of the message and that author alone, not necessarily the views of dumpcms.com or anyone else associated with us. Any user who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to contact an administrator or moderator immediately by email or private message or by reporting the post. We have the ability to remove questionable or inappropriate messages and we reserve the right to delete any message for any reason whatsoever. If we determine that removal of a message is necessary, we will make every effort to remove that message as soon as possible. However, please realize that we may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately.

You agree, through your use of this forum, that you will not post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise volatiles any law.

You remain solely responsible for the content of your messages, and you agree by accepting these rules that you will not hold dumpcms.com or anyone else to any claim based upon submission of your message(s).

We at dumpcms.com also reserve the right to reveal your identity (or any of your personal information that we are aware of) in the event of a complaint or legal action arising from any message posted by you.


EXTENDED RULES AND POLICIES

Copyrighted Material

You agree not to post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you. Unauthorized files (audio or video or illegal software) are not permitted. This includes, but is not restricted to, linking to such files or pirated software, asking for such files, posting content with the intent to encourage such behavior, and suggesting means through which such files or software may be obtained. Failure to comply with this may result in termination of your membership to the forum, and if deemed appropriate, legal action will be sought.

No Advertisements, Chain Letters, Pyramid Schemes or Solicitations
Please note that advertisements, chain letters, pyramid schemes, and solicitations are inappropriate on this forum.

No Multiple Usernames
Multiple usernames are not permitted. If you have a problem with your account, contact an administrator.

No Trolling or Spamming

Members are not allowed to create threads with the sole purpose of starting a dispute. The best way to react to a basher/troll/spammer is just to report the post/posts, and then ignore.

Do not post the same message in multiple forums.

Do not mass-PM or mass-email multiple members with the same message.

Do not post for the sole purpose of increasing your post count.

Respect Other Members

Do not post harassing, insulting, belittling, threatening or flaming messages towards anyone.

Keep the language clean. Also keep your profile and avatar and signature clean.

In discussions, debate issues, do not get personal with members. Respect the privacy of other members, keep private conversations private. But if you receive disturbing private contacts, you can report those to the moderators.

The Rules & Policies exist in order to create a pleasant atmosphere for members to safely login and discuss the Charlotte Mecklenburg School System, and to interact with other members.
