    Our forum rules are straightforward, and there are only a few of them:

    Do not share user accounts!

    Any account that is shared between another person will be banned and closed. This means: We will not close only the account that is shared, we will also close the main account of the user that uses the account of another person. We have the possibility to detect account sharing, so please don't try to cheat the system.

    Do not write anything without real content just for collecting coins

    Do not try to cheat our system or our moderators, and do not post an unnecessary amount of posts only to earn credits here. That will be detected quickly by us and can lead to a deletion of all your posts and lead to your account's permanent ban.

    That includes one-word posts or concise sentences made within a short time on our site! Please express yourself with complete sentences, even if it is not perfect English grammar. If you cannot decently express yourself, please be a silent reader here, but please do not write many short posts without actual values.

    Examples For Bad Posts:

    Examples For Good Posts:
    • I like your motion simulator because...
    • I can't entirely agree with you because ...
    • I want to present to you the following ...
    • and so on ...
    If you like a post or thread, use the rating box which sits below each post and uses that one instead of posting a one-word-comment

    We have a zero spam tolerance policy, and writing multiple bad posts will cause a ban on your user account. You can read here more about our coin rules.

    Do not spam
    We ban all spammers immediately, permanently, without exception.

    Behave respectful and friendly

    Do not post illegal content or requests

    That also includes anything that relates to pirating or contains weapons or porn stuff.

    Only the English language is allowed
    Posts in another language will be deleted without further asking.

    Do not post excessive advertising
    If you are a company, you can post from time to time in the marketplace section
    if you want to advertise anywhere else send me a pm for our advertising plans

    We will delete any postings without further asking with simple phrases like (except off-topic section):
    • looks, a good mate
    • Great work
    • Funny thing
    • Wow, funny
    • etc.
    Do not ask for support via personal message (pm) or profile posts
    All support questions should be handled publicly in the corresponding support forum so that anyone with a similar question can participate.

    Do not misrepresent other people's projects as your own.

    Do not post political or offensive images or slogans. That includes political symbols, flags, etc., even in a photograph's background.

    I think this post should be sticked on top of every sub-forum and/or in the new posts search results.
    In other forums - I think they call 'em Announcement Titles - they are like stuck sections

    I meant something like the following, from Assetto Corsa forum.
    the first section - Announcement Title - is stuck, made of pinned threads:

    Anyway, what you did should be already enough to stop the spamming

    Please keep in mind that we will delete any postings without further asking with phrases like (except off topic section):

    looks good mate
    Great work
    Funny thing
    Wow, funny

    and at least posted similes instead of emoticon buttons

    etc.

    Instead of this you can use emoticons as much as you want....

    The main goal is to avoid spamming multiple threads just to gain some coins with useless posts.
    You can say you like one project, but when you do so in many ones in 5 minutes... ban hammer!

    You have been banned due to multiple spamming attempts, a few days ago I tried to get in touch with you via private message, but you did not respond. Phrases like

    Great work
    Funny thing
    Wow, funny
    etc etc etc

    are not allowed. Instead of this you can use emoticons.

    Hello @Pit
    I would like to make it clear that we are in the Chinese mainland login forum needs to cross the firewall, and the speed is very slow, so that sometimes a few days are not logged on the forum, maybe I did not see your mail contact,。
    Of course, anyway I Must follow this rule.
    I would like to have to confirm the rules:
    1. Word is too small will be considered spam,is this the decision of the factors?
    2. I really need to increase the coin, can i gradually increase through the normal replies?
    3. If we reply to a large number of posts in a short time , whether posts will be considered is spam by the system?
    Your rule is simple, but not is very detailed, i want to trouble you to answer my doubts, :(I do not want to be banned again, thank you..hug:
    Best regards.

    Hi Leo I was in Beijing 3 weeks ago and had no issues connecting to xsimulator.net (even Facebook which I didn't expect). Anyway I think you did understand the rules, collecting coins by posting senseless content is not allowed.
