Global Swans Forum - Community Rules
Welcome to the Global Swans community! To ensure this remains a positive space for all Swansea City supporters worldwide, please follow these community guidelines:
Respect and Behavior
Mutual Respect: Treat all members with courtesy and respect, regardless of location, experience as a fan, or opinions.
Civil Discussions: Disagreements are natural in football discussions, but maintain respectful dialogue at all times.
No Discrimination: Zero tolerance for racist, sexist, homophobic, or any discriminatory language or content.
Language Moderation: Keep profanity to a minimum and avoid offensive content.
Content Guidelines
Stay On Topic: Post in the appropriate forum sections to maintain organized discussions.
No Spam: Excessive self-promotion, advertising, or repetitive content is prohibited.
Duplicate Posts: Search before creating new threads to avoid repeating existing discussions.
Illegal Content: No sharing of illegal streams, pirated content, or discussions that promote illegal activities.
Copyright Respect: Don't post content you don't have rights to share.
Privacy and Security
Personal Information: Protect your details and never share others' private information.
Account Security: Use a strong password and never share your login credentials.
Forum Etiquette
Thread Titles: Use clear, descriptive titles that accurately reflect the content of your post.
English Language: British English is the primary language of communication to ensure all members can participate. If you'd like to start a discussion thread in another language, please contact an Admin, and we can initiate one in the language of your choice.
Formatting: Break your posts into short paragraphs and use appropriate formatting (headings, lists, etc.) to improve readability. Large blocks of text are difficult to read and often get skipped over by other members.
Moderation
Reporting Issues: Use the report function for rule violations rather than engaging with problematic content.
Moderator Decisions: While feedback is welcome, respect that moderator decisions are final.
Consequences: Depending on severity, rule violations may result in warnings, temporary restrictions, or permanent bans.
Getting Started
Introduce Yourself: New members are encouraged to post in the Introductions section.
Read Before Posting: Familiarize yourself with forum sections before creating new threads.
Ask for Help: If unsure about anything, ask moderators or experienced members for guidance.
These rules are in place to create a welcoming community for Swans supporters worldwide. By joining and participating in Global Swans, you agree to follow these guidelines.
