Please take a moment to review these rules detailed below. If you agree with them and wish to proceed with the registration, simply click the "Register" button below. To cancel this registration, simply hit the 'back' button on your browser.
Please remember that we are not responsible for any messages posted. We do not vouch for or warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any message, and are not responsible for the contents of any message.
The messages express the views of the author of the message, not necessarily the views of this bulletin board. Any user who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to contact us immediately by email. We have the ability to remove objectionable messages and we will make every effort to do so, within a reasonable time frame, if we determine that removal is necessary.
You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this bulletin board to post any material which is knowingly false and/or defamatory, inaccurate, abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, profane, sexually oriented, threatening, invasive of a person's privacy, or otherwise violative of any law.
You agree not to post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or by this bulletin board.
Use of the board represents your agreement with the below rules. Any breach of these rules may result in account suspension.
#1 - No Flaming/Trolling/Defamatory posts
Strong opinions are encouraged, and debated is not only welcomed – it's the main reason the board exists. If what you are considering posting doesn't advance the issue being discussed – if it's just taking a "shot" at someone – then either don't post it, or phrase it in a way that meets the rules.
There is absolutely no reason to verbally attack another user (aka flaming), and/or posting a message for the express purpose of generating a negative response (trolling). This specifically means NO PERSONAL ATTACKS.
Any defamatory posts made against HuskerBoard, its representatives, or any other member may result in an immediate ban or temporary account disablement.
Posts outside of the general theme of the topic which you are posting within will be moved or deleted.
#2 - No Threats
Do not threaten another member in any manner.
#3 - No VULGAR Profanity
This board has a relaxed attitude toward censorship. However, that does not mean that any and all languages or statements are permissible. Since registration is not required to view the posts, it is conceivable that minors could be reading posts. We want all posters to feel welcome, and to foster an environment that is pleasant for all. Because of this, while there are no "hard and fast" rules as to what language is acceptable, we ask that posters use good discretion in posting. You should have a good idea of what is "over the line" and what is in good taste. If you have any question, DON'T post it – contact the administrators or moderators and run it by them. In the event that matters get out of hand, the board will set specific rules and those rules will be enforced. So, please – don't ruin a good thing for everyone. In the end, please just remember you are representing the Great State of Nebraska – be classy.
#4 - No Porn or Strong Sexual Content
This includes links to adult web sites and/or posting content that may not be suitable for younger viewers.
#5– Do NOT Copy & Paste Original Content from Other Sites
At no times should content be copied and pasted on HuskerBoard without citing the source or linking directly to the content. Exclusive content provided by services such as Rivals and Scout should NEVER be copied and posted on HuskerBoard, even if you own a membership. Material on these sites that is NOT in the membership section can be posted only if you cite the source - or you may link directly to the content.
#6 - No Spamming
HuskerBoard is not to be used as a marketing tool for your websites or products. This applies not only to individuals but also to commercial spamming. Ticket and merchandise ads are limited to the 'Classifieds' forum. You can include your website name or company in your profile and signature, but any excessive promotion will result in suspension.
*If your very first post is to peddle a product which isn't relevant in any form to this site, the post will be deleted and you will be banned.
#7 - No Piracy
No forms of piracy will be tolerated. Cracks, Warez, whatever. Emulators may be fully discussed as they are not illegal. You may discuss roms, but if you provide any information on obtaining them, it is a bannable offense.
#8 - No Cracking/Using Another Member's Account
Using another member's account without their permission will result in an immediate, permanent ban. No exceptions.
#9 - No Circumventing a Ban
If you are banned, there is a reason. If you want to inquire as to why you were banned, please send an "unban request". Creating another username to circumvent the ban or to ask about a ban will cause your 'alternate' name to be permanently banned and your 'main' name's ban time to be doubled.
#10 - Moderators
Please respect the moderators. They offer their services free of charge, and work hard to keep the board clean and organized. The mods reserve the right to enforce the rules in any manner they see fit. If you see offensive content that has not been addressed please notify mods@huskerboard.com.
#11 – Revisions to the Rules or Contests
HuskerBoard reserves the right to modify these rules at any time and for any reason. Posters are bound by the rules at all times, and are required to be familiar with the rules at all times. Any modifications to the rules are effective immediately, and are applicable to all posters the moment the rules are amended. The Board reserves the right to ban posters in the board's sole discretion. Huskerboard also reserves the right to amend any board contest at any time. Neither Huskerboard.com nor College Sports, Inc. are obligated to fulfill any contest or offer which may be listed within the board forums.
#12 – Multiple Memberships not Allowed
Only one account is allowed. Creating multiple accounts is not permissible and will result in the closing of all accounts.
#13 – Outbound Links in Signatures & Elsewhere
Links to general Husker sites are acceptable, as long as the site does not offer a discussion forum. Why? Plain and simple, Target doesn't allow WalMart to advertise in their store for a reason. Links to non-Husker related sites are not permitted unless authorized by the board Moderators. Please send a request to mods@huskerboard.com before doing so, or you will risk being banned. If you would like to discuss our advertising rates, please contact admin@huskerboard.com.
