MESSAGE BOARD RULES UPDATED 8/11/09

UPDATED 8/11/09 I strongly suggest reading the rules with "NEW" in front of them, and
it wouldnt hurt to read the rest as well.

The following are rules and reasons that your
posts will be deleted or edited, things that
will get you banned, and a few things that are
allowed.

When deleting posts I will do so by following these rules. If you want to know why your post was deleted then read the following rules, and you should easily understand why.

All rules will be interpreted at my discretion.

************************************************
************************************************
NEW & UPDATED: ONE THREAD PER SUBJECT PER PAGE
Due to the ridiculous amounts of unneeded threads about the same subject this rule has changed. CHECK EXISTING THREADS! more often or not you WILL NOT need to make a new one. If you make a new thread when there is already an existing thread about the same subject on the same page, the thread will be deleted. THIS NOW INCLUDES multiple shows, results, dvd sales, updated cards, etc. From now on all of these type of posts will need to be in 1 thread only, or all additional threads will be DELETED! It is very simple to change the subject line to dvd sale, or results or whatever you want it to say.
This applies to wrestling feds,promoters, fans, wrestlers and whoever else posts on here!. If you want to update show info, add a youtube, a poster, etc, post it in the existing thread or it will be deleted!
***** The one and only exception to this rule is if your thread is 3/4 of the way down the page or more, you can make a new thread. This method will allow threads to last longer, and not make the board look like a big mess of the same rehashed stuff, over and over again, and allow room for other subjects and other feds to have a space on page 1
*****************************************
********************************************************

NEW & UPDATED:when using the copy and paste method when replying to a post (meaning copying and pasting the original message in your reply) it is very important to put either ************ or ``````in front of your answers. (read any one of my replys made on the board and you will see exactly how im talking about posting) I have to read all of the stuff on here, so if it is hard to read it will be deleted. this is for everybody, but yes tim this has been made because of you and your horrible replying ways.

*********here is what your reply should look like after the original post you are quoting.

************************************************
**************************************************

NEW & UPDATED: if you want to know what will or will not be deleted, read the message board rules. If it violates those, it will be deleted. if it doesnt, it will not be.
if you contact me about something in a specific thread it is very important that you send me the exact address of the message you are talking about. simply right click and open the post in a new window and send me that address. i do not have time to go searching the board for whatever you are talking about, so if you dont send me the link,i will not be looking at anything.

***************************************************
***************************************************

NEW & UPDATED: talking shit in anyway about this board, saying only workers post here, saying only fans post
here, blaming the board for the way people act, saying the way people are "on here", telling people they shouldnt post here, or any post that refers to "this board" or "this place" in a negative way will get your post deleted immediately. That means as soon as i see it i will immediately stop reading and delete the post,so dont think you are getting me to read anything.

if you are stupid enough to insult me in the first line of your post and then say see if he deletes this or not, ahh yeah it will be deleted. from a real post.

if you promote your show on my board and then insult the board in the same thread, anything about your shows will be deleted. also from a real post.

***********************************************
***********************************************

NEW & UPDATED: Posting links to any website that contains a links or sponsers page, or that contains any links to other wrestling related websites, that does not have a return link to my site IndyWrestling.Net which i prefer, (or INDYMESSAGEBOARD.COM) will get your entire post deleted. This includes flyers, pictures, posters, subject lines, etc. with website address's on them, and youtubes or other videos that have websites addresses in them.
This also applies to saying just google it, do a search, check out their site, on their site, i just read this on their site, or anything refering to their site. All of these, or similar sayings will get your posts deleted. im not supporting people that dont support me. I will now be checking out all posted links, so if you got away with it before, doesnt mean that you now will still be able to. I have no problem with exchanging links with almost anybody, or any fed. Just contact me if you would like to do so. I can give you atext link, and.or banner link in the middle of my site.

**** so you know if you are a website that has exchanged links with me and then later removed mine, not only will your site no longer be allowed to be mentioned here, but neither will your fed. it has already happened, so im not kidding.
****************************************************
***************************************************
NEW: making any intentional false posts (example:saying a show was cancelled, when it wasnt, saying something happened when it didnt) or any impersonations (pretending to be somebody you are not)will most likely get you banned, or at least a warning, that is one step away from being banned. banning are usually permanent.

NEW: if you are a fed that posts about your shows on here, but then nobody ever takes the time to post the results to them, your posts will be deleted. this is a place to get info on shows, and that includes the results. if you cant take the time to do that, then this place is no longer for you.

reposting deleted posts will not only get the post deleted again, but will most likely
get yourself banned. if it was deleted it was deleted for a reason. if you clean up what
ever got your post deleted in the first place that is fine.
But if you then make any post mentioning anything about it previously being deleted, it will be deleted again.

*****************************************
****************************************

if there is a non wrestling related link that does no violate the "come here post" rule
it is ok to post it. examples are ebay items, sex offender websites, etc. basically if its something that can not be posted here and it can only be used as a link.
NOTE: if it violates any rule it will be deleted. i did this to make it more convienent to
posters, not to make a way to bread rules.
************************************************
*************************************************

please preview your posts before posting. so many times this will prevent many errors like messed up videos, pics, you forgot your name, no subject, the subject in the name space etc. there is not a setting on the board to be able to edit your own posts. so dont expect me to do it. thats what the preview is for.

make a very specific subject title. if its about a certain fed that feds name should be in the title. "great show" for example is not a good title. many unneeded threads are posted simply because of bad titles. if this happens the thread with the bad title will be the one to go.

talking shit in anyway about this board, saying only workers post here, saying only fans post
here, blaming the board for the way people act, saying the way people are "on here", telling people they shouldnt post here, or any post that refers to "this board" or "this place" in a negative way will get your post deleted immediately. That means as soon as i see it i will immediately stop reading and delete the post,so dont think you are getting me to read anything.

NOTE: TO PROMOTERS & WORKERS. If this is done by you I will then do one of the following.

#1 I will no longer delete or edit out any posts that are made towards you, or concerning you. This will be an example of what the board would be like if it was unmoderated. If you want to bitch and talk shit, then I will now give you a reason. You can see what this board would be like if I didn't moderate it, and then you might realize you didnt have much to bitch about in the first place.

#2 It will then be presumed that you no longer wish to use this board to plug your shows/self etc, so it will no longer contain any info to do so. If you wish to use this board in the way it was intended fine. If you do not then that is also your choice, but dont ask why your stuff is being deleted if you choose to do so.

***********************************************
********************************************

any post that mentions anything about people anonymously posting, posting as anon, talking about anon posters, posting as wrestling
fan etc, will get your posted deleted! this means any post saying stuff like post
your name, why dont you post your name, grow some balls and post your name, are you afraid to
you post your name, and any other of the thosands of pointless phrases about this subject. it
is a waste of space and all it does is make people want to post this way more often, due
to your stupid challenges.this has been a rule for a long while now, but not really enforced,
but it now will be.

do not make multiple theads for announcement type posts. just make one thread and change the title in each new post you make. what is an announcement type post? its a post that probably will not get many or any replies to it. usually it will be something like results or cards from wrestling shows in areas not covered by the board, like for example pwg, japan and stuff like that.

NEW: Making any post plugging linking or "REFERING" to any other message board WILL NOT be tolerated.
It is ignorant, disrespectfull and will get you permanetly banned. Trust me it will.
Sometimes it will be very easy and sometimes it will be a pain in the ass, but trust me
i will do it AND IT WILL BE PERMANENT. That means forever!

*****************************************
******************************************

NEW: placing any come here type posts and just providing a link will get your post deleted.
this board is a place to go to get information, not a place to be directed to a place to
go to get info. thats means you can post something from somewhere else, but not a
link to go somewhere else to go see something. when posting youtubes and other kinds of
video it is fine, as long as you post them so they play on the board, and that the actual videos dont have links in them that violate the linking policy.

****************************************
******************************************
NEW: since this is becoming a problem again i will remind everybody that
any post that mentions anything about people anonymously posting, posting as wrestling
fan etc, will get your posted deleted! this means any post saying stuff like post
your name, why dont you post your name, grow some balls and post your name, are you afraid to
you post your name, and any other of the thosands of pointless phrases about this subject. it
is a waste of space and all it does is make people want to post this way more often, due
to your stupid challenges.this has been a rule for a long while now, but not really enforced,
but it now will be.

*****************************************
*******************************************

NEW: if your only reply to a post you dont like is something like "you must be a jealous worker", or "you cant get booked" or "lets see you do it" or anything similarly stupid, your post will be deleted. just because somebody doesnt like something it is stupid to assume they are either of these things. If you cant give a real reply then they are probably correct, and no matter if they are or not, people will assume they are just by the lack of a decent answer.

If some people and feds actually listened to what people said maybe there wouldnt be some many terrible low drawing feds around.

***************************************************
******************************

any post that reports somebody has died, which doesnt include a valid email,
or some sort of confirmation will be deleted. if it is found out to be a fake post,
then the poster will be PERMANENTLY banned! this also includes i heard this guy died
posts. if you cant confirm it to be true, then dont post it.

***************************************************
********************************
making a post saying i know this will be deleted, or check this out before
its deleted. just because you have no problem wasting your time posting something
that will be deleted anyways, doesnt mean you should. it will definetly get your
post deleted, no matter if it would have been or not, and is also a good way to get banned.

*************************************************
***********************************
Making a post complaining and whining about stuff. Like for example cant we all get along?
Why dont people post there names?(usually made by a anon. poster) Daring people to post
their names. Saying your a pussy if you dont post your name? You have no balls if your anon.
And other stupid crap like that. No matter how many times you say it nobody gives a fuck!
or will do it because you say they should.
****NOTE***If you ever actually noticed people will do it more often because they will get
a laugh out of your challenges, so stop it already! You are more of a problem than them!

*************************************************
*****************************************

No Impersonations. do not pretend to be anybody else. That includes a real or screen name.

And if people dont use their "real" names on here or in wrestling dont post them here. that
goes for wrestlers, promoters, fans etc.
*****I do suggest that any regular poster click the register link and register your screen
name. It will be much easier for all, and people will take you much more seriously if you
have a log in name. if you dont register your name or log in when you post, dont bitch if somebody impersonates you, because its your own fault. Impersonations will get you banned!

**************************************************
***********************************

Do not make an Anonymous post stating this guy or this fed is a liar, a theif etc. In
a case like this it is not ok to be Anonymous because when you are putting somebodys
repution on the line you need to have some facts to back up what you say.
How can somebody believe an unknown person with no facts?

**************************************************
**********************************

Making a post or reply asking why i didnt delete something (usually posted like 2
minutes after the original post was posted)or stating that i allow something. The
answer is probably because i dont spend all day on here and i didnt see it yet, or
because i dont feel it needs to be deleted. If you want something deleted because
it contains personal info etc., please email me with the exact web address of the post.
***note******if you see a post that will obviously be deleted DONT REPLY TO IT! replies
are exactly what that kind of poster wants. Not repling to these kinds of posts are
something that some people are getting very smart about doing. Others, not so much.

making a post asking why your post was deleted. i might answer you if its a valid
question, but usually it will just be deleted also. I have an email address or myspace
pm that you
can contact me at for these types of questions.

**************************************************
****************************************

Making a this sucks type post about whatever, or whoever, and not leaving a reason why
it sucks, or backing up your statement. If you think something sucks then say why you
feel it sucks.

Making a "bash" post, which is a post that is in no way to be constructive, but simply
to bash somebody for no reason. Basically the same as a "this sucks" post.
*************************************************
************************************

Posting non wrestling stuff is allowed as long as its something that people reading this
board could be interested in. so if you make a post stating this doesnt belong here it
will be deleted. if it doesnt belong here i will delete it, so if i didnt delete it, it
belongs here.
*************************************************
**************************************

posting your "entire post" in capital letters.

*****************************************************
**************************

Posting something in a topic that has absolutely nothing to do with that topic.

*****************************************************
*******************************

Insults towards a fellow posters or wrestlers private life, family members,
wife, kids etc. Will get your post deleted.

****************************************************
*************************************

Complaining about having a post deleted, Demanding that I delete a post or
Challenging me to "delete this post", will always get your post deleted. If you
have a question about something email me.

*****************************************************
***********************************

A post kritersizin pore spelin n gramer. Even if you only have a 1st grade egeamakaton
you are still allowed to post on here. posts making fun of somebodies spelling and grammer
will be deleted.

No posting of porn. We all like porn I know, but it cant be on here. Pictures of hot
women wrestlers, valets etc. is fine, and encouraged.

Making a post without a subject. This is just stupid.

Using Racial Slurs
Self-explanatory.

*******************************************************
*******************

This is your warning, so don't say you didn't know or I didn't warn you. Being a
fucking clueless idiot is not a reason to be allowed to break the rules.

RULES MOST FREQUENTLY BROKEN AND INFO FOR NEW USERS

by (Login indymessageboard)
Forum Owner

first off its great to have new posters but you all need to read the board rules before posting. if you dont and your stuff gets deleted dont bitch because its your own damn fault.

here are a few things that are being done way too much and if done are going to get your post deleted. all other rules do still apply.

1 makeing a new thread when there is already an existing one. we dont need a page full of 10 threads about the same damn thing. check the first page of the board before making a new thread. more often or not you WILL NOT need to make a new one. this applies to everybody. i dont know how many new threads i have seen which flat out say they are refering to another post.

2 talking shit about this board, or saying only workers post here. do either one if you want your post deleted immediately.

3 posting links, pictures with links or youtubes with links in them is not ok, unless you are following the board rules on links. this also applies to saying just google it or go check out their site or on their site etc. all of these will get your posts deleted.

4 placing any come here type posts and just providing a link will get your post deleted. this board is a place to go to get information, not a place to be directed to a place to go to get info.the exception to this is something like an ebay auction, where you have no choice but to go to the site.

5 bitching about people not posting their names, posting anon, or wrestling fan etc. will get your post deleted.

6 reposting deleted posts will not only get the post deleted again, but will most likely get yourself banned. if you clean up what ever got your post deleted in the first place that is fine, but if you then mention stuff about it being deleted before, it will be deleted again.

heres also a couple things that some people really need to know.

first off the terms "bashing" or "talking shit" means that you are lying or saying something that isnt true. if something is true then there is no bashing or shit talking going on. i just wanted to clear that up because alot of people dont seem to understand that just because you are not kissing someones ass or saying something good, that doesnt mean you are bashing or talking shit on them.

oh and for anybody that posts stuff like i normally dont come here, or i never post here, or im never posting here again please save it. nobody believes you. if you want to make it completely obvious or make people think that you do both things all the time then take the time to write that.
