1.1 Posting Guidelines & Etiquette

What we'd like to see

•Use Forum search. Your question or comment may have already been discussed, answered, or resolved.

•Stay on topic..add to existing threads only when it is applicable. Better to create a new thread for an unrelated post

•Please do not "cross-post". If you've posted to this forum, there's no need to post in another or vice versa.

•Note: As a matter of ettiquete, you should stick with one forum. If you are getting help in another forum then you should inform the other - this way there is never "duplication" of members time & efforts.

•Please do not use offensive language, nor launch personal attacks on another user.

•Be welcoming to new posters, we were all new at one time trying to learn

•Please utilize the "Hey Mods" link on the bottom of any post for anything requiring Mod attention.

How to post for assistance

A good example of the proper way to post to the Security Clean-Up Forum:

•Will follow this
•Will have descriptions of current symptoms.
•Will tell us what programs from the FAQ were utilized. (should be all), state what was found, and show us the logs

You can link to a thread elsewhere onsite for reference, but please create a new thread w/ all requested info for our SCU Forum

• Start a thread by clicking here

• If you've already started a thread and wish to add a reply, please use the "topic reply" button found under every post (vs "new topic") - this will help keep all your posts in one thread for easier analysis.
