POSTING GUIDELINES
Topic titles should be in lower case always! The exception to this is for special announcements calling attention to the members to read something important.
Please refrain from using all caps during your posting. All caps is harder for members to read and on the net it's considered yelling. Save all caps to be used in the context of your post for the purpose of pointing out something important in your post.
NO BASHING
Please be respectful of all actors/characters & members of Bewitched.
DO NOT MONOPOLIZE THE FORUMS
Please do not monopolize the forums by starting numerous posts each day, therefore inadvertently bumping others threads down to the bottom of the forum.
NO BUMPING
Bumping for a specific reason to point someone to an old thread for reasons of recent discussions is perfectly fine.
Posting on your own threads with either 'thank you' or any words in order to bring your thread up to the top of the forums is not allowed. This includes birthday celebrations threads, youtube videos you add, tributes, short stories or anything else like that. We need to be fair to all that contribute. We're posting as a group here, it's not all about your threads being on top.
FORUM IS PG-13
Please keep all posts on the forum at a PG13 rating.
NO KILL THREADS
If you don't have anything constructive to add to a thread, please go on to another topic.
Example: Topic starter writes "Tell me your favorite Serena episode". If you don't like Serena, there's no need for you to say "I don't like Serena so I don't have a favorite Serena episode". Simply do not post on that topic.
EMOTICONS/SMILIES IN YOUR POSTS
Please limit your emoticons in your posts to no more than 6, if possible. I do not want to set a limit on the board since there will be times when we will need to go over the limit, but in general, we should not go over the 6 limit.
POSTING PICTURES ON THE FORUM
Feel free to use any photos from your own Image Gallery. Please remember to give credit to the member who took the screencap and uploaded it in the gallery. No hotlinking at all on this site. This means that any images you find on the net that you want to post here on Bewitched 1164 must first be uploaded to your own personal Photobucket and then that url can be used to post the picture. Do not use the url from the internet. If you don't have a photobucket or know how to use one, please learn how in our technical assistance forum or don't post the internet's pictures.
YOUR SIGNATURE
Please use only SMALL imagens in your signatures... No emoticons or big images. If your signature is not in accordance with our rules, they will be modified by the forum administrators.
Also, please do not post any links in your signature space that takes you outside of Bewitched 1164. You may add a link in your signature box to your Library Fan Fics on our site only.
DO NOT FLOOD
Please do not flood the forums with repeated ads. If you wish to post again on the same topic, please edit your post with the warning: EDITING POST or wait until someone else post after you.
SPAM AND DOUBLE POSTS ARE FORBIDDEN
Please do not post spams, double post or cross-post the same message in multiple forums.
YOUR BIRTHDAY
All members who are active on the board will receive a birthday thread from Bewitched 1164 Admins if they have their birthday set in their profile. The profile is set to British style where the day goes BEFORE the month, so please make sure you have selected the right number.
GAMES FORUM

POLITICS AND RELIGION

PICTURES OF THE DAY (PODs)
The only person who should be posting any pictures in the PODs is the member who is doing the PODs that week. If any member wants to take a turn doing any of the Pictures of the Day, please send a PM to the forum moderator of that room and you'll be assigned a week of your own.
Character room PODs are limited to no more than 2 pictures and one video per day. (Actors rooms, Guest Star and Supporting Cast PODs are limited to 1 picture and one video per day.)
All PODs start on Monday and you have the week to do your POD. You may start your POD right after midnight sunday in your time period but not before that. This is to give the previous weeks POD a chance to finish up with those comments before you starting a new week.

NO FLAMING
