Most violations will get a warning in a private message from the admin or the moderators to the poster. You will be given a chance to correct the issue. If the violation is serious enough, you will be banned immediately without consideration. You will reply to this private message or email, letting them know that you respect their decision and confirm that you understand the rules of CBRT. Please do so in a polite and respectful manner, or you will be banned. # -
Debating
While debating and discussion are fine, as long as they are done in a constructive manner, we will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks, or purposeless inflammatory posts to other members or sponsors. Our decision is final in these matters. Discussion of others' work or products is fine as long as it does not turn into advertising for non-sponsors, or is slanderous in nature. # -

Discussion of illegal activities, such as software piracy and other intellectual property violations, is not allowed. CBRT cannot be held liable for any action that you, as a member, take of an immoral or illegal nature. # -

Banning
We also reserve the right to ban anyone who willfully violates the forum rules without notification of any sort. Having access to our forums is a privilege, not a right.

Use your common sense: if you have to ask if you can post a particular topic, then you probably shouldn't post that topic. If you have questions, please use the "Contact Admin" form on the site. Being a member on this forum is a privilege, not a right. This is a private forum, and we do not have to publish everything that is said between the admin and mods of the site. # -

Posting

Useless Threads
Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one-word (or short) nonsense posts, or the like. Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed. # -
Inappropriate Posts
Advertising (if not an official sponsor), spamming, and trolling are not allowed. This includes using the forum email and private message system to spam other members. We also do not allow posts that are sexual in nature, or violate CBRT community standards (any inappropriate language). The CBRT team shall be the sole arbitrator of what does and does not violate community standards. This is a family-oriented site, and violators of this rule will be banned.
In order to prevent casual swearing, CBRT censors the most inappropriate curse words by replacing them with the word, **"Censored"**. Intentionally trying to bypass the swear filter will attract a ZERO TOLERANCE response from the CBRT moderators, and can result in being banned from the site. We also will not tolerate obfuscated swearing! Obfuscation (or beclouding) is the hiding of intended meaning in communication, making communication confusing, willfully ambiguous, and harder to interpret. Swearing in another language is also unacceptable. Content with curse words that are used in the context of a personal attack, or insult will be removed and you will be banned from CBRT. This also goes for all those non-swear words insults like "stupid", "jerk", etc.
No discussion of religion or politics is allowed. This is a requirement imposed upon the forum; as it is felt that religious or political discussions are divisive and encourage trolling. Any threads on religious or political topics will be removed (without notice) and could result in you being banned. # -
Post Removal
We reserve the right to remove any posts that can be considered offensive to anyone without prior notice. If you are going to post non-English on these forums, please also post an English translation of your post. This forum is an English-based forum, and we ask that you keep the discussions in English out of respect for the majority of the users of the site who speak English. We do welcome users of all languages, but we ask that you utilize the different translation websites to translate your language into English. # -

Without our sponsors, we would not have this forum. Therefore, please do your best to refer anyone to one of the many great sponsors on this site. If you do not think that any of our sponsors carry the related item, please ask us, and we can tell you which sponsor is the best one to refer the radio operator. # -
