3. The Teamspeak server forces you to use Push to Talk, it will not allow you to to speak with voice activation.

Once you have reached a certain amount of points, your account will be banned temporary for a set time. If you are to reach a higher number of points than this, you will be banned permanently. Further action may be taken including spam cleaning your account, removing all threads and posts of that account, or even ban placed upon your ip address.
3. - Spamming:
   Image spamming is absolutely not tolerated. As amusing as you might think you are, you aren't! This includes, but is not limited to, posting fail macros, or other internet memes in misplaced threads. Also, off-topic chatter should be kept to a minimum. Remember, all threads should have discussion pertaining to that section of the forums topic. Asking the same question in several threads is also classed as spamming, this will not get your question answered any faster. Posting one or two word replies on multiple threads is also classed as spamming, please only write meaningful content.
4. - Flaming/hateful comments:
   Do not flame users for any reason! Flaming often involves name-calling and insults, and will only result in a infraction being placed upon your account. Please keep all your discussions civil. Pictoflaming, similar to image macro spamming, is not tolerated. Please keep your amusing image macros to yourselves and attempt to discuss in a civil manner.
5. - Private Servers:
   Advertisement, linking, and discussion of private servers is not allowed on FyreUK. Choosing to bring up the subject of private servers will result in a infraction being placed on your account.

   Recruiting our members for your own projects and benefits is not allowed. Doing so will result in a infraction being placed upon your account.

   Posting non-specific thread comments in an attempt to rebirth a thread is against the forum rules. Please keep your posts specific to that thread.
10. -Server Member Prohibited Content: (SERVER MEMBERS) You MUST have permission to post screenshots of builds, etc on our server, this is not because we don't want you to share your creations, but because you could be showing stuff off that is used in future FyreUK videos. Contact a Forum Guardian (HarveyG, Wooders1996 or NemesisArc) or the Chief Forum Moderator (Benwyn) by starting a conversation (private messaging) if you want permission to post pictures from the server.
11. -Forum Abuse:
    Using the forum functions for no real purpose. This for example could be reporting multiple posts of a user for no real cause of concern.
12. Last one, USE COMMON SENSE AND ENJOY YOURSELF!
13. Reporting Problems and Contacting Moderators:
    If you find a thread that you think is breaking a forum rule, we would appreciate you reporting it. You can do this by pressing the small Report button underneath the post. This will give the Staff and Forum Guardians a notification in which one of them will take a look at the situation as soon as they can. Spamming the report button for no real reason will lead to you having a infraction placed upon your account. If you find a thread you think needs moving/merging etc, please do not use the report function. Start a conversation with either one of the Forum Guardians (HarveyG, Wooders1996 or NemesisArc) or the Website Admin (Benwyn) and they will deal with the thread accordingly.

This can cover personal insults, name calling, racist jokes, threats or ridiculing an individual for cultural or linguistic differences.

Remain calm. Do not feel that it is your fault or that you have to tolerate it.

If possible, make it absolutely clear to the person causing the offence that their behaviour is unacceptable to you. This may be sufficient to stop it.

If you do not feel able to tackle the person concerned, this does not mean that you are consenting to harassment.
