Rules and Regulations
GFY Rules and Regulations!
GFY has always been a place for free and protected speech, allowing adult industry professionals the ability to share insight and knowledge, as well as getting to know each other and network.
We want everyone to enjoy themselves, but make no mistake. If we feel you are getting out of hand we have no qualms about banning your ass.
Follow these simple rules:
- If user is creating public disturbance , or uses admin/moderator resources without valid submission, he can be banned.
- No SIG/SEO/URL/ANYTHING spamming. Posting with intent of only to drawing attention to you sig with either text or an image or to your URL will be considered SPAM. This type of spam will generate a warning, second violation will result in a ban, but it can be also executed permanent ban if spamming is too severe. Abuse will not be tolerated. You want to announce something you are selling, put it in the Buy and Sell forum. You are announcing something for your program put it in the Program Announcement section. Program Announcements placed in the Fucking Around and Program Discussion forum are reserved for GFY Advertisers. Want to advertise, you can email me.
- Signature rules. Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 lines of text. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60. Yes there is a reason this is so big. Also putting your text in a cell and making it look like a button is against the rules. Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more than 3 lines of text. Over the top sigs will be deleted without warning!
- Private Messaging rules. Abuse will not be tolerated, the private messaging system is meant to be used as a business tool to be able to allow users to connect with each other. Abuse in any fashion will be grounds for immediate banning.
- Do not post people's personal information, or attack peoples personal lives or families, stick to the issues and the bullshit. ANY WHOIS information is considered public information, it is not considered personal information. So don't bitch at us if you put your home address as your personal info on WHOIS.
- Excessive harassment or verbal abuse of a single member, will be grounds for a warning. Inciting others to harass or verbally abuse a member will also generate the same warning. Repeated violation after warning will result in the ban hammer!
- Racial slurs and use of racial slurs will result in a banning. Racial slurs will no longer be tolerated in any format.
- Illegal Sites and pedo. Don't post links to illegal sites. Calling someone a Pedo, Referring to them as a Pedo, Stating they promote Pedo, posting of Pedo links, and Death Threats are now grounds for immediate banning. Pedo material should also not be posted on GFY. This should be sent to ASACP | Association of Sites Advocating Child Protection or to your local law enforcement. Violations will be warning first, banning if violation is repeated.
- Posting images of death, dismemberment, or animal cruelty will not be permitted and will be removed. Violation will result in a banning. We don't want to see that shit here!
- False accusations against a person or company. We all want to know what companies and individuals have done you wrong. Just make sure you back any claims you make up with solid proof. If you plan on calling someone a scammer, liar, cheat, or anything else, have your proof in order and post it with your claim. False accusations will be grounds for immediate banning.
- Insinuations Meant to Do Harm Any insinuations made in an attempt to do harm to a person (personal attack) or business, shall be grounds for immediate banning.
- One username allowed. Fake usernames will be immediately banned. If it is determined that a user has circumvented the banned user terms laid out below and re-registered with a second username to access the board. The user will have the original banned username deleted!
- Company Announcements Announcement or posts which are not within topic of section must be placed in the announcements forum unless company is advertiser. First offense will come with a warning, second offense will result in the banning of your company URL on GFY. Active and contributing members will also be allowed to post such posts in other sections.
Before posting, make sure to check how you are seen as active and contributing member.
- Fake Nick Ban Circumvention If you are banned take it like a MAN! Registering a new nick will lead to that nick being banned and your original nick finding another violation added to it. Also, if you are legit user, but you are letting banned user to use your nick in any sense, it will be seen as that user fake nick and cause your nick to be instantly perma banned.
***Rules violations will lead to nickname banning
Banning schedule is as follows:
1st violation - 1 month banning
2nd violation - 3 months banning
3rd violation - 6 months banning
4rd violation - 12 months banning
5rd violation - BANNED FOR LIFE
If your penalty was too severe , you might be banned for life immediately. In that case, the answer will always be NO you can not come back.
GFY is a network of industry professionals. We all like to have our fun and enjoy shooting the shit and talking the occasional trash to each other. If you see anyone in violation of these rules please contact a MOD immediately, you will not be called out in any way, in the end the MODs can not see everything and we appreciate everyones help in keeping the peace. Please email info @ gfy.com with any violations, and questionable post.
