There is a point where the intent of this site coupled with the information supplied by others could result in dangerous or unexpected outcomes. Further, almost everything discussed on the site is based on electronics in some way; therefore subjective messages can sometimes be easily proved wrong by theories or laws.
To save ourselves a couple of heated debates, here are some simple rules (please contact a moderator to discuss concerns):
While there's the odd expert amongst our community, most of us are "technically-curious" and enjoy learning or helping others. Inherently, almost everyone is going to make a slip here-and-there (which is fine).
Repeatedly misleading others (partial/confusing/wrong information) or providing dangerous guidance will land the offending member a warning. Their posts may also be edited/removed.
Contributions that hold no value for our community (commercial or otherwise) will be marked as spam and deleted. Members can do this by clicking the report icon "!" on any post.
Further, new members must have their first post validated by a Queue Moderator before their account is granted full access. This prevents bots from registering and posting spam.
