We take pride in having one of the most laid back, respectful, and close knit Nissan Sentra forums on the internet. Please follow the rules here in order to keep it that way. Please keep in mind that the use of the word “we” doesn't apply to a specific group of people, it's every member on the forum, we are a community and not a dictatorship.

I: General Forum/Site Rules
There will be no excessive use of profanity. This does not mean you cannot curse. It's just when it's every other post/shout on the chatbox it becomes annoying.
There will be no racial, ethnic, gender based insults or any other personal discrimination. No one wants to come on a forum and be part of a community that allows that, and on top of all that, it's wrong and you know it.
There will be no posts meant to offend or hurt any other member, in a manner which is offensive or inflammatory.
Unnecessary bumping of topics is considered spam, and topics bumped for no reason shall be locked. If a topic you want to talk about is few months old. Don't bump the old one just remake the topic. Bumping of FOR SALE topics IS allowed
If you are going to post something that may be deemed inappropriate by some people (i.e....Bosses at work) Please make sure you tag the thread NWS.
Spamming is not permitted; please keep all your posts as constructive as possible. This is bannable on first offense.Pornography, Warez, or any other illegal transactions may NOT be linked in any shape or form.
All posts are property of the poster. This forum and all web sites owned in conjunction with this forum have the right to request alteration or deletion of any offensive post. Posts may be deleted for any reasons the forum administrators and/or moderators deem reasonable.
Users may not argue a moderators decision publicly. Any and all complaints directed at a moderator must first address the moderator in question via PM. If the problem can not be resolved, then the moderator and user must send their positions to the forum admin(s). The forum admin(s) will make or change any and/or all final decisions.
If a topic is recognized as being posted in the wrong forum, or if the post is a violation of our guidelines then please contact a moderator either via PM or the 'report post to moderator' feature; please do not respond publicly to the member - a member of staff will do what is required upon contact. Any person/s who attempt to present themselves as a Moderator by posting negatively to a member's topic (which has been posted in error and requires locking or moving to another forum) will be sent a PM warning and placed into moderation queue upon further actions.
Any impersonation of a user from these forums, in any mode of communication, is strictly prohibited and will result in a banning. This is taken very seriously.
You may have one username on the board at any one time. If you wish to change your name, you can do so by requesting that it be changed in the Username Change Thread, in the News and Updates forum.
II: Chatbox Use
Consider the same rules that apply to the site/forum to apply on the chatbox. The chatbox posts ARE admin searchable, so just because they don't show up on the forum, doesn't mean they are gone.
III: Specific Forum Rules
Showoff Forum: Please use the following format for the title of the thread: Username/Location/Year,Make,Model of vehicle.
For Sale Forum: Pictures of the item are not required, but will help you sell them, please try to give an accurate description of the item in your initial post.
Any thread that has been inactive for over a month will be locked. This is upon user request and is for good reason. If you are the owner of a locked thread, simply PM a mod to have it unlocked if the item is still for sale.
If you sell an item, please post in the thread that the item is sold so the thread can be locked.
IV: Signatures
There is no limit to what you can have in your signatures, but please, be considerate of other users when thinking of what images you want to put in your sig, not everyone has T3 lines at their house.
Links to other sites are permissible in signatures (it must be YOUR site), this isn't a Sentra Forum popularity contest, it's a group effort to progress the community as a whole.
V: Moderators
Our moderators are not here to be grammar Nazi's or bullys, but are here to make sure the rules are followed and everyone has a good time on the boards. If you have a any problems or questions, please feel free to PM one of our mods for help. Our moderators are:
Slver_Spec04

VI: Violations and Warnings
We don't WANT to warn or ban anyone from MAS, but it will probably be inevitable one day. Warnings will be issued for minor offenses to the rules or just plain ignorant behavior. Don't be an idiot, please
If warnings have no effect, temporary bans will be in place as follows:
6 Hours
1 Day
7 Days
2 Weeks
1 Month
If you still haven't figured it out after that, it's a permanent ban that can only be reinstated by an Admin.
