Moderators

Moderators control individual forums. They can edit, delete, or prune any posts in their forums. If you have a question about a particular forum, you should direct it to your forum moderator.

Administrator and forum moderators reserve the right to close or delete any post that does not provide a clear and purposefull topic. There are many members who still use28.8 and 56k modems that do not have the time to wade through useless and senseless topics.

Anyone who posts just to increase their CSCDC Forum Forums stats or post topics out of boredom risk having there topics closed, removed and/or membership revoked.

Try to make the topic wording mirror what is inside the thread. Topics like "Check this out!" and "~~\\You have to see this!//~~" only attract members to a topic they may not want to read.
