asked that question or shared that news.

3. Member conduct.

3.1 Language

Delphifan is a worldwide community. As a result, what may be OK to say

in your part of the world, may not be OK elsewhere. Please consider who is reading what

you write and don't use profanity, sexually explicit language, rudeness or swearing including

the use of characters to replace letters in swear words.

Conversely, while reading posts from other members, remember that the word you find

offensive may not be offensive to the writer.

Tolerance is a two-way street.

3.2 Nudity

DelphiFan is used by people of all ages, including minors. It is unacceptable

to post nude or pornographic imagery, which includes the exposure of male or female

genitalia and/or female breasts.

3.3 Flaming / Lack of respect

DelphiFan is about sharing and this does not involve

virtual yelling (flaming) or rudeness.

Flaming or posting with a lack of respect is unacceptable.

Treat new members in the manner in which you would like to have been treated when you

were a new member. When dealing with any member, provide them with guidance, advice,

and instructions when you can, showing them respect and courtesy.

Never post in a demanding, argumentative, disrespectful, or self-righteous manner.

3.4 Personal attacks, racial, political, and/or religious discussions

DelphiFan is a discussion forum about certain mobile phones. Mobile phones are not racial,

political, religious, or personally offensive and therefore, none of these types of discussions

are permitted on DelphiFan.

3.5 All members are expected to read and adhere to the DelphiFan rules.

4. Post using a clear and descriptive subject and message.

You're most likely to receive a helpful answer to your question if you use a short subject

a title that describes your problem and a message that explains in detail, what your problem

is and what you've done to try solving it.

5. Use the English language.

We understand that with all the different nationalities, not everyone speaks English well,

but please try. If you're really unable to post in English, use an online translator. You're

free to include your original message in your own language, below the English translation.

(This rule covers your posts, profile entries, and signature).

6. Create a thread or post a message only once.

As a large forum, we don't need unnecessary clutter. You're free to edit your message as you

like, so if you do not receive an answer, revisit your message and see if you can describe your

problem better. Not everyone is online at the same time so it might take a while before you

receive an answer.

7. DO NOT SPAM, SELL OR TRADE ON THE FORUMS !!!

8. DONATION.

WE APPRECIATE ALL DONATİONS TO DELPHIFAN.COM AS IT HELPS TO KEEP

OUR FORUM IS ONLINE AND WELL-MAINTAINED. AS A USER, YOU'RE ALLOWED

TO ASK FOR DONATIONS IN YOUR SİGNATURE AS A THANK YOU FOR YOUR

HARD WORK, HOWEVER DONATIONS UP FRONT ARE NOT ALLOWED.

THIS FORUM IS ABOUT SHARING AND NOT ABOUT GETTING PAID TO DO

SOMETHING...

THAT IS WHAT YOUR JOB IS FOR.

E, SINCE WE'LL END UP DEALING WİTH THE LEGAL HASSLE CAUSED BY YOU.

PLEASE USE COMMON SENSE: RESPECT THE FORUM, ITS USERS AND THOSE

THAT WRITE GREAT CODE.

9. Using the work of others.

If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you

MUST first seek their permission and you must give credit to the member whose work

you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed/created a piece of work, first try

to settle the matter by private message and NOT in an open forum. If this fails, you may

then contact a Moderator and provide clear evidence that the work was created by you.

Convincing evidence will result in the copied work being removed. If there is no clear

evidence that it was you who created the work, then in the spirit of sharing, all work

will remain posted on the forums.

As in addition, developers have the right to hold exclusivity over their work for as long

as it is deemed necessary by that developer. However, if the work is claimed as exclusive,

it must remain as such. No selective sharing will be allowed (ie, allowing certain people

to use it and not others).

If the developer decides to start sharing the work with others, the work automatically

becomes available for all to use, albeit with the relevant credit displayed.

When permission has already been given, unless there is a very valid reason, it cannot

be revoked (same applies to major updates on the work).

Under that same premise, permissions cannot be denied unless the work is exclusive or

under extreme circumstances.

In plain English: If you want to keep your work exclusive, go for it.

However, if you are going to share your work, do it fairly.

Reposted content, derivative or maintained works based on that of former or banned

members may be removed at our discretion.

10. Keep threads/posts on-topic

Whilst a minor amount of off-topic posting may be overlooked, the general rule is that

your posts/threads must be relevant to the Forum/thread in which you are posting.

11. Bumping Threads

(posting simply to force a thread to the top of the thread queue)

Do not "bump" a thread more than once per 24 hours.
