Code of Conduct
Welcome to the CHF Discussion Forums! These forums are here to provide you with a friendly environment where you can discuss ideas, give advice, and converse about any other aspects of Blizzard games (Warcraft, Starcraft & Diablo) with other members. Community forums are at their best when participants treat their fellow posters with respect and courtesy. Therefore, we ask that you conduct yourself in a civilized manner when participating in these forums.

The guidelines and rules listed below explain what behavior is expected of you and what behavior you can expect from other community members. Note that the following guidelines are not exhaustive, and may not address all manner of offensive behavior. As such, the forum moderators shall have full discretion to address any behavior that they feel is inappropriate. Be advised that some rules which are not listed here adhere specifically for certain forums found on this site. Thusly be sure to read the posts marked as “sticky” within the respective forum boards. The general site rules still apply to all sections, with no exceptions. Also, suspension or banishment from the forums will always result in the same in regard to chat access. Your access to these forums is a ‘privilege’, and not a ‘right’. The CHF Administration Team reserves the right to suspend your access to these forums at any time for reasons that include, but are not necessarily limited to, your failure to abide by these guidelines.

We reserve the right to evaluate each incident on a case by case basis. The action we take may be more lenient or more severe than those listed under each category:

Racial / Ethnic
This category includes both clear and masked language and/or links to websites containing such language or images which:

Promote racial/ethnic hatred
Are recognized as a racial/ethnic slur
Allude to a symbol of racial/ethnic hatred
If a member is found to have participated in such actions, he/she will:

Be temporarily banned from the forums
Be given a final warning, after which any further Code of Conduct violations may result in a permanent ban from the forums

Extreme Sexuality / Violence
This category includes both clear and masked language and/or links to websites containing such language or images which:
Posting images of nude or nearly nude people
Refer to extreme and/or violent sexual acts
Refer to extremely violent real life actions

If a member is found to have participated in such actions, he/she will:

Be permanently banned from the forums

If a member is found to have participated in such actions, he/she will:

Be given a temporary ban from the forums, depending upon severity
While these repercussions may seem harsh, we feel very strongly that this behavior has no place on the forums due to its extremely offensive and inappropriate nature.

Inappropriate Language
This category includes language and/or links to websites containing such language or images which:

Are a mildly inappropriate reference to human anatomy or bodily functions
Are otherwise considered objectionable

If a member is found to have participated in such actions, he/she will:

Harassment takes many forms, and is not necessarily limited to the type of language used, but the intent. Repeatedly targeting a specific member with harassment can lead to more severe action. The idea behind this is to prevent any one member from consistently being uncomfortable in the forums.

This policy is not language-restrictive. Language that falls under this policy will always be subject to the repercussions listed, whether it is inappropriate in English or any other language.
The bottom line is that we want CHF to be a fun and safe environment for all members. While chatting and posting on its forums, you will encounter hundreds of other members who share different experiences and come from vastly different backgrounds. While certain language and images may not be offensive to you, consider the fact that that same language and images may have a completely different effect on someone else. We’re doing everything we can to make this a great environment – now it’s up to you!

Decided to clean up the 4 pages of needless bickering to make it easier to see the main points of the former discusion which is simply
-Reping anyone for ANY reason  is NOTallowed 
we would remove this function all together if we could  however with Ucoz we either have it or we have no rep system period. if people have a problem with this practice ill be happy to again completely disable the rep system all together

too the few people that seem to think this is some new policy

- rep for ALL as banned months ago when we instituted the new rules this is not new i simply just cleaned up the post and summerized because it was on like the 4th page
this was a descision made by all admins of the forum as - rep was being used simply as a tool for trolling and flaming .f

this is NOT something that is up for discusion . this is not something new , it was simply put up front recently because new, people or those newly returning to the forum couldnt see it right away in the rules
