Pointless posts include simple messages such as: "Thanks", "Great", "Nice", "I like this" etc. Make a post in the "Introduce Yourself" section and say hello and let us know a bit about you.

We reserve the rite to change/add to these rules at any time without notice.

Mini-Chat box

Sun Apr 11, 2010 8:38 am

Hello,

Codenstuff.com does have its own mini-chat box based at the bottom of the community index page which is available to all members to chat about programming or anything in general.

The rules of conduct for the site DO apply to the chat box aswell so please be aware of this when using it.

Please do not discuss anything in the chat box which violates any of the main site rules of conduct or you will be banned from using the chat box for a set period of time. If you see any members having a discussion about a project or asking for help please do not bombard the chat box with pointless messages because not only is it rude but it makes it harder for anyone needing help to get the help they need.

The chat box is here for your benefit and is a great way to interact and talk with your fellow members and we dont want to discourage anyone from using it but please be considerate and aware of other members using it and what they are discussing before jumping in.

Thank you.

VIP Access - Rules

Tue Apr 13, 2010 3:21 am

Rules for VIP Members,

The VIP section is for use by VIP members only to access and post exclusive content such as downloads, tutorials and code snippets. Any VIP member is welcome to post any such content in the VIP section for other members of the group to access and use but the following rules apply.

1) Do not share any VIP content with non-VIP and non-Codenstuff.com users unless you have permission from the original author/poster to do so.

2) Do not share your account details with any other member so that they can access the VIP section using your username.

3) Please do not copy any of the content from the VIP section and post it into the general community sections. This goes with rule 1.

The VIP section is available because we wanted to give something back to our donators as a thank you for their support and help with keeping the site running. VIP access is also given to a small number of people as a prize for entering and winning certain contests because we like to reward people for their efforts and hard work.

Anyone breaking any of the above rules could have their VIP Status permanently removed and you could also recieve a warning or be banned from the site.

File Uploads/Offsite Links

Tue Jan 25, 2011 10:36 pm

Rules regarding file uploads and offsite links to file downloads

Uploads:
All members are free to share their software, apps, web scripts, source-code, projects, media and any other content related to programming by uploading them to the site. Currently we have no limit on the number of files each member can upload with the following exceptions: You are only allowed to upload a maximum of 3 files per post and no file can exceed 3MB in size - Image, Zip and RAR files are permitted.

Offsite Links:
If your files are too large and/or not in a format allowed on the site then you may use the offsite link feature to share your files on Codenstuff.com providing the following rules are followed.

These rules apply to both uploads and offsite links:

1) Do not share images/videos/links/downloads or any content on codenstuff.com that contain illegal/infectable/abusive or sexual content.

2) Do NOT disguise your links or deceive others by stating your download/file is something other than what you described in your post. ie: Saying its a web browser but in reality its just a text file zipped up.

3) You must only use the offsite link feature for FILES relating to programming and the site in general. Do not use it for linking to Youtube videos, your own website, other websites or anything else unrelated to programming/the site or goes against any of the other rules.

4) You will NOT attempt to tamper with the upload/offsite link features or hack or misuse these them in any way other than intended.

5) You will NOT share content that does not belong to you without permission from the original author and if we are in doubt we will ask for proof of consent. Failure to provide reasonable proof will result in your file/link being removed.

All Moderators on site will Warn/Ban any members who are found to be breaking these or any other site rules and reserve the right to delete/edit/lock/move any content that violates them without notice. We get a lot of uploads here and expect a big rise in uploads in the near future so we will now operate a 6 month cleanup of dead files which means any file the hasn't had a single download within a 6 month period will be deleted. If a file hasnt been download in 6 months then its obviously no longer needed and just taking up space which can be put to better use and allow more newer content to be added.

These rules stand as of: 25th January 2011 but again we reserve the right to change them in the future if we need too.

Purchases/Donations and Topups

Sun Jun 05, 2011 4:10 pm

Donations:
When you make a donation to the site it is to help keep the site online by helping with the running/development costs. You are not buying anything physical nor non-physical goods - A donation is a donation and not a purchase. We (Codenstuff.com) give you VIP status as a thank you for your generous donation and although we are not obligated to do so we do this because we like to reward our members for their help.

Software Purchases:
These are non-physical goods sent to you via email as a download when you buy any of our official software. The money raised from these purchases again gets put back into the site to help with the running costs and future development.

Topups:
Here on Codenstuff.com we operate a FREE credit system which is used for many features around the site. You earn credits just by using the site as normal but you can also complete free offers or purchase them directly using various payment methods such as Paypal/Mobile/Credit Cards and again all funds earned from topups are put back into the site. You can then use your credits to download files, activate site features such as VIP and eventually to purchase our software.

Fraud:
If payments for any of the above features are reversed/reported as fraud/unauthorised then any benefits you earned from those transactions ie: software/VIP WILL be revoked and you could also have your account banned from the site. We (Codenstuff.com) do not allow any type of illegal activity/content on this site which includes fraudulent payments and as a member of this site you are bound by these rules and accept any action taken against you should you break them.
