Community rules

Community Rules are in place to make sure the SSEI QFORUM stays relevant and awesome all the time!
We are all finance enthusiasts here and professionalism runs in our blood, ain’t it?
Still, we enumerate some ground rules to give you an idea of what we expect :

1. Make quality posts:
Ask thoughtful and relevant questions and strive to provide helpful answers. We are confident all our users understand why this is crucial!

2. No religion or politics:
Nothing starts a fight faster than politics or religion, so we don’t allow these to be discussed ever.

3. No personal insults:
Do not use language that is obscene, violent, or mean-spirited. Never bully, intimidate, or harass any user.

4. No Promotion/Marketing:
Do Not try to sell or advertise any products. Your posts should be free of commercials or links thereof.

5. Not provide Answers that you know are wrong:
The forum is designed to help its users to learn and not to confuse them. Wrong answers only complicate the student’s predicament. Lets not confuse anyone folks!

6. Don’t make multiple accounts:
We only want one of you please! If you lose access to your account, there’s no need to create another one. Instead, try resetting your password on the login page, or contact us for help.

7. Keep personal information private:
All posts in the forums are easily found via search engines, so unless you’re willing to expose your information to the world, please do not post telephone numbers, e-mail addresses etc in your posts.

8. Do not post affiliate links, coupons, and offers:
Please refrain from posting or asking for coupons, codes, discounts, invitations to services, etc

9. Don’t spam:
We have a zero-tolerance policy on this one. Never post anything that is illegal and/or unethical in nature and/or contain links of offensive sites etc

10. Be Ethical:
No sharing pirated material, please. It is not cool. Also, you’ll be responsible for copyright infringement – not us.

Other Rules/Suggestions

1. Choosing a Username:
Remember that this is a family-friendly forum, so please avoid words that might be considered risqué. Please also don’t use a domain name as a username, such as xyz.com or xyzdotcom. Lastly, don’t include “SSEI QFORUM” (or any variation of it) in your username. (C’mon, you’re more creative than that, right?!)

2. Your Avatar:
Please do not use any business logo as your avatar. Never use the logo of SSEI QFORUM as your own.

3. Keep It Tidy:
Make the effort to put things in the right place, so that we can spend more time discussing and less cleaning up. So:

  • Don’t ask a question in the wrong category.
  • Don’t cross-post the same thing in multiple topics.
  • Don’t divert a topic by changing it midstream.
  • Rather than posting “+1” or “Agreed”, use the Like button.
  • Rather than taking an existing topic in a radically different direction, try stay relevant.

4. If You See a Problem, Tell Us:
It is the job of the moderators to ensure that everything is clean and tidy, but there will never be enough moderators to look at every post, so we rely on you to help out. You can do that by alerting us of anything you see that looks off base. It might be a post that’s rude, it might be spam or maybe it’s just in the wrong forum. Just flag it and we shall look into it. In order to maintain our community, moderators reserve the right to remove any content and any user account for any reason at any time. Moderators do not preview new posts in any way; the moderators and site operators take no responsibility for any content posted by the community.
