Reminder. If you think a post is inappropriate, please use the report to moderator link that is in each post.
Message Board Rules
Neither the Administrators of these forums, or the Moderators participating, are responsible for the privacy practices of any user. Remember that all information that is disclosed in these areas becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to share any of your personal information. Any user who finds material posted by another user objectionable can use the REPORT function on the post to notify the forum administrators.
By participating on these message boards, we are authorized by you to remove or modify any data submitted by you to these forums for any reason we feel constitutes a violation of our policies, whether stated, implied or not.
You are fully responsible for any information or file supplied by this user. You also agree that you will not post any copyrighted material that is not owned by yourself or the owners of these forums.
Copyrighted material includes, but is not specifically limited to, full texts of online articles, copyrighted video, etc.
In your use of these forums, you agree that you will not post any information which is considered soliciting, advertising, vulgar, racist, harassing, hateful, threatening (this includes personal attacks), abusive, invading of others privacy, sexually oriented, or violates any laws.
User Submitted Reporting
As stated above, if there is a problem topic, report it. It will then be decided upon by the forum administrators if the post warrants removal or a warning.
Topic/Post Removal
Posts, as stated above, that violate posting rules are grounds for removal. Flooding the board with spam-like comments are grounds for immediate removal as are extreme instances of the prohibited scenarios listed above (ex: racist comments). Crudeness is also grounds for removal without written explanation.
Users may request re-instatement after a certain time period to be determined by forum administrators.
Remember, this forum is only as good as those who want to participate in it for the right reasons.
Locked Threads
When threads are controversial in nature, but don't violate any rules, they may eventually be locked as to prevent removal of the thread due to infantile/immature/tactless comments.
Decorum
It is recommended/suggested that users post with tact. The District 4 message board is a highly useful tool for the wrestling community and the actions of few can reflect on our community as a whole. Parents, athletes and coaches read the boards. If you wouldn’t want your parents or kids reading what you post, think before hitting the submit button.
We want an educated, topical set of message boards that serve both the wrestling community and the users who represent it. Please act responsibly.
Forum Rules Addendums
Legal Matters: Legal issues surrounding athletes either in college or high school will be removed. These include any type of matter that involves arrests or pending charges. This does not include eligibility, however, pointing out legal matters as a means to tear down others will not be tolerated.
Lewd Content: Posting any content that's deemed "adult" or "X-rated" will result in the account's immediate removal.
Secondary Accounts Part 1
Creating a new account to skirt a ban from another user account might get you a few free weeks of posting under that new name, but when it is discovered, not only will you be banned again, your IP addresses will be punched out as well.
Secondary Accounts Part 2
If you have two accounts (or more), pick one and use it. Abuse of the back and forth between two usernames for the idea of rabble rousing and trolling could result in BOTH (or all) of your names being removed. Don't argue with yourself.
Political Debates
No use for them, don't start them, don't reply to them, don't engage in them. Only Title IX is really open game, but the moment this gets into Dems vs. GOP, etc., the thread is gone. Politics and their venomous discussions have zero place on a wrestling message board. Speak your political views somewhere else, preferably on a political message board or in the Non Wrestling section
