The PMT Forum Rules are meant to guide actions of every member who registered in the Forum. Everyone is expected to abide by these rules. Violations may result to temporary suspension or permanent ban of a user account.

1. Defamatory, obscene, threatening, profane or hateful messages are not allowed in the PMT Forum.
The administrators and moderators reserve the right to judge which posts fall under this category.

2. Do not make redundant posts or threads.
Use the Search function first before making a new thread. Posts and threads with similar topics may be merged or deleted. Posting the same thread several times in other folders is not allowed.

3. Write decently and sensibly.
Avoid d use f txt words and DiS tYP3 of rYtiNg in d 4rum because not all members are familiar with "text lingo" and "jeje-speak." This causes a distraction in the flow of a thread's discussion. Do not also make smiley-only posts. Smilies normally do not add much value to a discussion and the images merely eat up the forum bandwidth. Do not abuse the font functions of the forum. Posts written in colored fonts, big/small fonts, or ALL CAPS, for instance, are annoying to read.

4. Advertise only in designated places.
Advertisements are allowed only in the "Classified Ads" folders after they have been posted in the PMT Classified Ads site. Follow the instructions HERE when posting an ad. The administrators and moderators reserve the right to delete ads that do not follow these rules.

5. Sending unsolicited Personal Messages (PM) to PMT Forum members is not allowed.
Those found sending PM spam will have their accounts suspended on the first try and deleted in succeeding tries.

6. Do not hijack the posts/threads of other members.
"Hijacking" refers to, but is not limited to, promoting your own products or advertising your links in the thread of another member. Exercise decency and respect the threads of original thread starters.

7. Signatures can contain a maximum of two lines, with no limit on the number of links that can be placed. Banners and images are not allowed.

8. Multiple accounts used to pursue a particular agenda are not allowed.
Multiple user accounts, especially those posting from the same IP address or IP range, mislead members into believing that there are multiple personalities involved when, in fact, only one or a very few exist. The PMT moderators reserve the right to ask same-IP posters for identification and/or proof that they are different individuals. Non-submission of sufficient proof may be a ground for termination of posting privileges.

9. All personal transactions must be done privately via PM.
No personal contact information (including, but not limited to full name, contact numbers, email, etc.) may be posted inside the body of posts. The signature field may instead be used to disclose one's personal information. Those who wish to conduct personal transactions with any member must use the Personal Messaging (PM) function. Members who want to request for more information must contact the poster via PM, and should not post the request publicly in a discussion thread. Use the PM function for all personal transactions.

DISCLAIMER: PMT will not be liable for any losses or damages you may incur resulting from personal transactions in the forum. We do not guarantee the credibility and integrity of any offer or of any member in the forum. Unless explicitly mentioned, PMT will not endorse any member, company or offer advertised on the site. Transact at your own risk.
