Don't be a leech. Leave your BT client running until you've uploaded as much as you've downloaded.
Low ratios &/or high data deficits may result in severe consequences, including banning in extreme cases.
Don't have too many torrents running at once & give a decent upload speed back to each swarm you are connected to, this is not kazaa.

No double posting. Posting more than one thread on the same topic is considered spam and will be deleted. (except Flaming/Whoring forum)
Threads are locked by moderators for a reason - in their judgement, either nothing constructive can be gleaned by further discussion on the topic, there is an existing thread with a very similar/identical topic or you have made a request of some sort but your share ratio is inadequate for you to be granted the privilege to make one. If you see a thread being locked, DO NOT start a new one on a similar/identical topic without explicit approval from a moderator.
Avoid using imageshack.us or photobucket.com for hosting pictures as explained under the Avatar and Signatures Rules sub-heading
Don't be an idiot, just because there isn't a rule here, it does not mean that we can't add one
