Forum Rules

Please use common sense when posting on this site. Any photos, links, personal details or thoughts which are unsuitable will be deleted.

Privacy
Please respect Donnie and Mark's privacy and that of their families. Posting threads (and pictures, ie: paparazzi pics) that are intrusive or disrespectful to the guys/their personal relationships/their children or other people who they are close to are not acceptable and these threads (and/or pics) will be deleted or closed. This includes any details or images in relation to any of Donnie and Mark's addresses or any links to any sources which may display these details, be it by way of written information or by photographs.

Donnie and Mark choose to keep their wives/gfs and children out of the limelight as much as they can. Remember, this site is called ThoseWahlbergMen.com NOT DonnieAndMarkAndTheirWivesAndChildren.com. Seriously, we expect everyone to respect their limits, and their privacy.

Post Content

Please do not post topics or replies that are indecent, vulgar, crude, sexually - orientated, hateful or anything considered to be offensive to other users. On the message board there are members from different countries, cultures and age brackets, and we would ask that you please take this into consideration when posting. Debates and discussions are always welcome and constructive criticism and opinions are valued but without the use of personal attacks, abuse or posting to provoke conflict.

The message board is not the place for airing out personal grievances on any private matters. Upon request a moderator will remove any posts directed to a user who finds the content distressing and of a personal nature. Please keep any serious disagreements off the forums.

Quality above quantity

Please consider the value of your message before posting -- The forum takes up a huge amount of diskspace, and requires a great deal of care... We ask that you put the same thought and feeling into each post. Periodically we clean up the forum by deleting old posts, but a lot of them show the growth and personality/vibe of TWM.com and it's members and as such, it would be a shame to lose them in order to make room for "dittos" and needless "bumps". It is rarely necessary to quote an entire post in your reply -- snip so that only the important parts remain.

Gossip and Rumors

DO NOT post gossip, rumors, speculations or theories about Donnie or Mark's personal life, including their family, friends and significant others either on the forum or in the chat. Please try to state and credit all sources when posting articles and/or interviews (or other) found on the web to assure the information is accurate and valid.

Censoring

The forum is PG-13, please keep details unsuitable for younger ears/eyes off the board.

Staying On Topic

Please keep the topics relevant to the forum you're in. Threads posted in the wrong forum may be moved, but a re-directive will be left in its place.

Avatars/ Signature and Image sizes

Avatars can be uploaded directly from your computer via your Profile (CP User Panel).

The image size limit is height 100 x width 100 pixels. Avatars can also be linked to remotely but please keep them to a reasonable size (i.e. the size stated above being the ideal). Any found to be too big will be removed.

Signatures also have a restriction of 200 words. Images in your signatures are not permitted due to high bandwidth usage.

Backseat Moderating

Let the moderators do the moderating please. Posting about and to a user on the forums not only brings unwanted attention to a possible offender, but it can also serve to aggravate a situation further. Any users back seat moderating as mentioned may be warned.

Reporting a Post or Thread

If you see a post, topic that you are concerned about, please contact a moderator by private message or email and then ignore it. It will be looked into as soon as possible by the moderating team and dealt with where necessary.

Private Messages

This message board allows users to send personal messages to one another through an enclosed system. While this means that while no other public user will be able to read the contents of your message all PMs are subject to the same moderation as the rest of the forum.

If you are in receipt of a private message that is of an abusive or distressing nature it will be subject to the same discipline as posts made on the regular forums. Please report this to a moderator who will then advise you on what to do. Do not post or reproduce any private message to the forums. Also, please clear out your private messages on a regular basis to shrink down the size of the message board.

Spamming

We allow advertising in the "Publicity" forum (http://www.thosewahlbergmen.com/bbs/forumdisplay.php?f=93) only. However, posting on the forums or in private messages purely as a means of outside advertising and posting duplicate or repetitive threads in forums is classed as spamming and will be removed.

Harassment

Please do not harass other members of the board through email (via MSN or AOL addresses in profiles) and/or by PM. Mass emailing and pming is not allowed on this board. If you have a message to relay to the members, do it by posting it directly on the board. Please report ANY harassment you may encounter to an Admin.

We highly discourage posting personal information (addresses, phone numbers, last names, age); given the anonymous nature of the web (there is no way to be sure that anyone is who they say they are), and the very real possibility of online predators. We have over 800 members of all ages, and we all need to look out for one another: If you witnesses interaction that could be construed as harassing or predatory, please contact the Admin or Mod immediately.

Complaints

If your thread/post is deleted or closed, it is done with cause by an administrator or moderator of the site, and requires no explanation be given. Please refrain from re-posting, and try to discern what might have been perceived as possibly inflammatory, inappropriate or questionable to avoid further deletions in the future. Continuing or restarting threads will result in a warning PM or email from an Admin. Do not post gripes over deleted/closed threads on the forum: If on review you still cannot understand why your thread was deleted or closed, you may contact an Admin.

If any user wishes to discuss further any actions applied to a thread or post, please contact one of the moderators privately about it. Anything posted to the forums will not be answered. Any users causing trouble or disruption to the forums in dispute of any actions taken by either the Moderators or Administrators may receive a warning.
