11. No harassment, personal insults and name-calling; this includes participation in such activities by means of publicly expressing agreement with perpetrators. What constitutes either shall remain at the discretion of the administration.
12. Berating the models in the pics or the videos or heavily and/OR frequently criticizing any of the posted content (unless it's extremely off-topic) is highly unwelcome and can get your posts and, in persistent cases, your account deleted.
13. Content from site's sponsors:
    1. If you are asked to stop posting some content because it comes from the site's sponsors, please stop.
    2. You may, however, freely post clips (under 10 minutes, [3 minutes or less in case of .net],
    3. but no more than once per week for each sponsor site, and no more than 1 clip from each full video) from sponsors' content
    4. or you can link to even longer versions if they are on tubes (not file lockers like Google Drive or ZippyShare, but adult video tubes like xHamster or xVideos etc.). NB: You should link to a tube PAGE, not to a video file directly.
    5. If you are unsure whether the content comes from a site's sponsor or not, post away, there's no penalty - if it does, I'll just ask you to stop and possibly remove what you posted.
    6. Moderators are not required, expected or supposed to take any action regarding site sponsors' content based solely on violation of this ("Content from site's sponsors") section.
14. Reporting: please use the "FLAG" icon located above each post to report posts which violate the rules. All moderators and the admin will receive notifications. Please don't use for minor stuff like light/moderate off-topic posts.

       7. Lock topics so that no new posts can be added
       8. Edit their own posts forever and not only until someone replies
    3. ...So, if you really need to fix your topic's title, move it to another sub-forum, or have a suggestion to pin some topic or post at the top - you can PM moderators and ask them (politely, since they're volunteers doing it free of charge) to do this for you. You can also PM admin with the same types of requests if you prefer. If you think your request takes too long, feel free to PM another moderator or admin (just don't PM everyone at once from the start).
    4. If you feel that you're being mistreated or treated unfairly by a moderator, feel free to contact admin via PM or the ** Only registered users can see this link. Registration is free. **. Your identity will not be disclosed neither publicly nor privately regardless of the result. Be sure to provide as much information as possible.

    12. Editors. Editors are a user group with the rights to edit their own posts forever and not only until someone adds a post after theirs. They have no other extra rights. This group membership is given upon request to people who are willing to start topics with ever-updating opening post, like a thematic links collection that they are going to maintain, and sometimes other practical reasons.

13. CHANGED 9 Oct 2017. Video uploads and embeds: please only post max 1 (ONE) attached or embedded video per 1 post. Too many video players on one page prevent that page (topic) from loading properly or at all. If you want to post 10 movies, make 10 posts (not topics). This will NOT be considered spamming. NOTE: This guideline does not apply to simple links to movies, you can have as many of them as you want.

14. Added 03 Jan 2017. Since this site relies solely on advertising to keep afloat (there are bandwidth, server rental and cloud storage fees that need to be paid every month), any discussion or even mentioning of the ad blocker software is forbidden and will be redacted.

15. Added 03 Jan 2017. ENF-CMNF's referral links. Your forum posts which mention various pay sites may be edited to include this site's referral links. Since the people will in fact be coming from trade-ease.ru, it's only fair.

16. Added 27 Jul 2017. No propaganda of online piracy. No requests for particular videos you know are available for sale but you don't want to buy them yourself. No asking someone to share bought content via any medium.  No posting links to rip sites and / or sites which specialize in stolen content. (Short promo videos created by the original producers or their affiliates to promote their sites are OK.)

17. Added 17 Sept 2017. No avatars displaying male genitalia.

18. Added 3 March 2018. Do not capitalize every letter in the topic title, description, or post. Examples: Wrong: TOPIC TITLE. Correct: Topic Title or Topic title.

19. Added 7 June 2018. Questionable content which includes simulated incest, simulated rape or similar where it is the main theme of said content is not desirable and may be removed upon review.

20. Added 21 June 2018. By posting your content on the forum and/OR uploading your content to the forum via the "Attachments" mechanism you agree that it may also be posted on the blog at [Permission to view this media is denied]

21. Added 9 May 2019, Last Edited 02 Oct 2019: Just to make it clear, if you are a content producer, an author, or an artist, you are free to post as much of your content as you wish, and you can link back to your site. Conditions:

• You must post your content to advertise your pages. Descriptions of your content won't do. Censored pictures or videos won't do also. In case of a story, if you share an excerpt, it must have at least 500 words. Be sure to post in the right forum: Stories for stories, Pics for pics, etc.!

• If you have an affiliate program, you are required to use trade-ease.ru's referrer links when linking back to your site. (Please send the affiliate registration URL to the address specified on the ** Only registered users can see this link. Registration is free. ** or via a PM to admin.)

• If you don't have an ** Only registered users can see this link. Registration is free. **, do not worry about this.

• If you do have an affiliate program, but for some reason don't want to use trade-ease.ru's referrer codes, you need to purchase a Forum Promotion Pack (see ** Only registered users can see this link. Registration is free. **), otherwise links to your site(s) will be deleted.

• If you want to start an affiliate program, I recommend ** Only registered users can see this link. Registration is free. **.

22. Added 26 October 2020: Do not use "cryptic" links like hXXps:/>trade-ease.ru/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/cfnf-photo-gallery.jpg. Instead, provide functioning URLs like ** Only registered users can see this link. Registration is free. **
