We offer a forum at https://ps-social.eu/forums/ and considers respectful communication on the website and the safety of its visitors extremely important. That is why Ps – Social has drawn up house rules, which every user must adhere to. These house rules can be read below. You only get access to the forum if you agree to the house rules. The terms and conditions and house rules may be amended from time to time and we therefore ask you to read them again from time to time.
Welcome to our forum! We see the forum as our home, where we welcome everyone, but where our rules apply. These house rules have been created because we consider the safety of our visitors and respectful communication important. Every user of https://ps-social.eu/ must therefore adhere to the rules, which you will find below. You only get access to the forum if you agree to the house rules. The general terms and conditions and house rules may be amended from time to time, so please read them regularly.
The Ps – Social forum is administered by the Ps – Social Community Manager, the moderators, and the junior moderators, hereinafter collectively referred to as the administrator. The administrator reserves the right to deprive visitors of the right to post if they misbehave in the opinion of the administrator. The administrator can also adjust or delete messages at any time, where it deems this necessary to ensure respectful communication.
To register on Ps – Social you must be in possession of a valid email address. This email address is used to activate your account. Also, the administrator can use this email address to contact you. It is also required to be registered with an active email address. You can change your email address yourself in your profile.
When posting on the forum, the user will observe the general norms and values that apply in society and the legal rules. This means that no sexist, pornographic, racist, or discriminatory contributions are made or statements that are insulting, defamatory, or offensive. Furthermore, the user must follow the instructions of the administrator. Failure to follow an instruction is seen as provocation by the administrator. The user will immediately receive a ban or a sanction will follow according to the ban system.
The house rules below apply to everything posted by the user on Ps – Social, so not only for the messages but also for the motto and avatar of a user profile.
Posting messages that violate the law: You may not publish material that is intentionally false and/or inaccurate and/or offensive and/or vulgar and/or hateful and/or obscene and/or offensive to a group of people because of their race, religion or belief or their hetero/homosexual orientation and/or is threatening and/or otherwise in violation of the law or affects someone else’s honour and/or reputation.
Posting inappropriate messages: By posting on the forum, the general norms and values that must be applied in society should be maintained. This means that no swearing is allowed, and that no sexist, pornographic, racist or discriminatory contributions or statements that are insulting, defamatory, or offensive may be posted.
Placing copyrighted text and images from third parties: This is only allowed if there is consent of the author or the source is acknowledged.
Posting (or linking to) pornographic and/or offensive (visual) material: Users are not allowed to post (soft) porn or photos with clear erotic content on Ps – Social. Messages, photos, and videos that are too violent are also removed.
Advertise, spam: Spam is not allowed in any way on Ps – Social. This is immediately followed by a permanent ban. The user will not receive an email about this. Links to auction sites and advertising sites such as a marketplace, eBay, or Amazon are also not allowed. Placing a URL in the motto is also considered spam. A URL may be added to the personal profile, provided the site in question is not commercial.
The use of anonymous proxy servers, so-called anonymizers, or open proxies to disguise one’s own IP address: Violation of this rule will result in a permanent blocking of the account, without warning.
Posting personal information and private material: This includes name and address details, emails, Skype conversations, (old) usernames, and other information, in principle, not intended for the eyes of third parties. Placing your own email address is at your own responsibility. Violation of this rule will result in a permanent blocking of the account, without warning. Sharing other privacy-sensitive information than mentioned above is immediately punished with a ban according to the ban system, so we do not first warn by means of an official warning.
Announcing suicide, displaying destructive behaviour, and self-mutilation: Announcing suicide, displaying destructive behaviour, self-mutilation (or similar behaviour) causes a lot of unrest among other users of the forum. This is therefore not allowed. Do you play with suicidal thoughts? Call for professional help immediately. Displaying (suspected) self-mutilation and expressing serious threats to fellow users and/or administrators is also not allowed. The administrator also reserves the right to block users who cause unrest on the forum by means of preventing self-destructive behaviour.
Fishing for romantic contacts: If an account is only used to seek romantic and sexual contacts, this account will be permanently blocked immediately. Ps – Social is a discussion platform and not a dating site.
Consciously using multiple nicknames within one discussion: It is not allowed to have multiple accounts on Ps – Social. When ‘double-nicking’ in the same topic, a second nickname will be permanently blocked without warning. For the main nick, applies: blocking according to the ban system. If there is ‘double nicking’ during a temporary ban, that ban will be extended or converted to a permanent ban.
Posting spoilers: Placing spoilers is not allowed, unless it is stated in the title that the topic contains spoilers. And if it is posted in the correct topic/forum.
Linking to illegal sites/things (such as illegal download sites): However, unauthorized sharing, i.e., asking for and providing links to illegal downloads of games, is not allowed. If you do, you will be permanently blocked without warning.
Unnecessary foreign language use: The official language on Ps – Social is English. It is not allowed to post comments where another language is the official language.
Trolls and troll hunts: Deliberately sharing misinformation or pretending to be someone else is called trolling and is not allowed on Ps – Social. Troll Hunting, publicly blaming users for trolling, is also not allowed.
Advertising own companies, web shops, and commercial products: Ps – Social may not be used for advertising companies, web shops, or commercial products and no product sales.
Threat to users: Ps – Social finds threats, aggression, violence, intimidation, and provocative behaviour against its users unacceptable. This concerns all ‘threats’ below, regardless of whether they occur on the forum, in connection with the performance of activities on behalf of Ps – Social, or in the private sphere or in any other circumstance whatsoever.
Verbal threats and/or intimidating language via the forum and via email, telephone, and/or any other channel;
