WELCOME ON MIC France-International
Before anything else, you have to know that we are not particularly keen on creating rules for the forum but it remains compulsory for any forum which respects itself.
Rules are not meant to annoy you, scare you or anything else, but only to ensure the smooth functioning of the forum, and all this, in the enjoyment, the cheerfulness, the conviviality and without any uncontrolled behavior.
- Good functioning of the forum
Respect for others is a matter which we particularly cherish. Thus, we ask you to respect all members of the forum as well as members of the staff.
Any homophobic, racist, sexist, offensive, political contribution or any comment inciting to hatred or discrimination or violating the integrity of the person will not be tolerated and will systematically be punished
The penalty will vary according to the content of the comments (it can go from a simple warning to a temporary or definitive exclusion from the forum). If one of you were a victim of one or the other of these behaviors, please feel free to inform the administrative team which will take the necessary measures.
It is highly recommended not to settle your disputes on the forum. We ask you to use the pm only for not entailing other members in your quarrels.
Then, as indicated in its designation, MIC France-International is an international forum intended for, consequently its members from worldwide, and are not necessarily understand English, Chinese or French speakers. Thus, in order to facilitate the understanding of the messages as well as the exchanges between members, please avoid as much as possible the use of too many colloquial words or abbreviations. Finally, please watch your language. No rude or offensive language will be tolerated.
Chapter 2: Staff and moderation
Before anything else, members of the Staff are volunteers and volonteer. They are neither paid nor slaves of the forum. To put it clear even if some administrators are very often involved in the forum, the fact remains that they all have, quite as you, a life out from the forum. Some of them are workers and the others are still students. Therefore, it is useless to harass them by pm to obtain any answer. They will always take the time to answer you, even if it is a little bit delayed (if one of the administrators does not answer after a 2-day period, address another administrator).
When a subject is opened, the referencing of every staff member is indicated along with a specific section to leave your questions
HERE in order to facilitate communication between staff members and members of the forum .
The flood section is made to relax, have fun and talk about other matters than the group. Any member can have access to this section however please note that the rules remain the same than the ones applicable to the forum. Be careful of your writing to avoid any uncontrolled behavior.
The flood section has not been created to increase the number of your messages to get access to a subject. We have nothing against the flood, however, please avoid spending too much time on it. We’re begging you to answer with more than 10 words. We do not want answers such as "OK", "cool", "hahaha " or " too beautiful, I like it " to proliferate. Please, try to make answers which could be a little bit more constructive.
If we note that you are only active on the flood, measures will be taken.
