Disagreements or conflict may arise in the course of discussion. Please remember to be courteous when disagreeing with others. Debate on differing opinions is appropriate. Personal attacks against other users, however, are not allowed.
The following behaviors are examples of what will not be tolerated on Nevada Career Institue+:
• Flaming - posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another user.
• Trolling - posting derogatory or inflammatory comments/threads attempting to bait other users into responding.

New members should feel welcome to post their questions. Do not harass them for asking questions or treat them poorly for not knowing an answer. Please welcome them to Nevada Career Institute+ and help get them to participate.
4. Do not make non-constructive posts.
Below are examples of prohibited non-constructive posts:
• Spam - repetitive posting of the same topic or text.
• Bumping - posting on threads in order to keep them near the top of the forum list. Commenting on obsolete or old topics with the intent to bump them into discussion.
• Threads that make threats or use other combative language.

If you do not agree with a board decision, you may PM a moderator. You may NOT start a thread or post complaining that your post was removed. Nor may you post private correspondence from moderators, such as infraction or warning notices. Questions or comments concerning warnings and suspensions should be conveyed through e-mail or private messaging.

9. No Excessive profanity.
We all know that many teachers and students use profanity. However, excessive profanity is not acceptable. Be Clean. Speak cleanly. Do not attempt to bypass the profanity filter (for example: partial masking, such as asterisks or punctuation marks or intentionally misspelling.)
10. Do not use proxy accounts or new accounts to evade suspension.
Posting on behalf of a suspended user is not allowed.

You are personally responsible for your conduct on the forums. If you create a new account to continue posting after your account has been suspended, you may be permanently banned. Forum suspensions generally apply to a person, rather than a specific account. Threads designed to announce, appeal or contest a forum suspension decision on behalf of a third party will also be removed without notice. If you do not understand why you were suspended or have further questions, you must contact Nevada Career Institute Computer Support staff.
