Welcome to the official National X-Box Paintball League Forum.
Guidelines
Be civil and polite.
The NXPL wishes the Forum to be available to as wide an audience as possible therefore the Forum has been subdivided into Team Topics, Tournament Topics, General Topics and Member Only categories and these sections into areas of interest and it is expected that Members will post on-topic in the various sections.
The NXPL wishes the Forum to be a friendly and lively Forum for a mature audience and therefore will endeavor to ensure that civility will be the norm, however this does not mean that Members will be insulated from all insults.
The Forum is read by many people in many difference locations (including work places), so consider if the content you are posting is “NSFW” (Not Suitable For Work). This could include pictures, audio and video and links to other sites containing such material; if you are not sure if something is NSFW, provide a clear warning to other Members of the nature of the content. (See: "How to mark content 'NSFW'")
The following are some of the behaviors that are not acceptable:
Advocacy of suicide or of violence to others: If you tell someone to kill or harm themselves, or to harm someone else, you will be suspended or banned without prior warning. Example: "Go kill yourself."
Sexual harassment: Defined as unwelcome sexual advances, sexual suggestions, or sexual content directed at another user, when reported. Generalized misogyny or misandry not directed at a specific user will not be considered "sexual harassment".
Extremely cruel or hateful content directed toward another user: This includes content in private messages. Generalized cruel or hateful content directed at groups will not be prevented in order that such topics viewpoints may be discussed, as long as such content does not encourage or incite violent acts.
