The following is a list of basic rules and guidelines about what is and is not allowed while posting on our site. These rules are in addition to what is listed in our Terms Of Use and Supplemental Terms of Use. Please read through these sections before using our site, and contact us if you have any questions.

1. You can only have one account on this forum. No exceptions. If you have any issues with your account or need help changing your username, password, email, etc., you can post for help or contact us. Members can also find help in the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section.

2. We expect our members to treat each other respectfully on PrepperForums.net. Although ideas and opinions may be challenged, name-calling, personal attacks, or other inappropriate behavior will not be allowed and may cause your account to be banned. Harassment is not tolerated in this community.
  • 2a. Community members may not question or debate moderators' decisions on the forum. In the event of a disagreement or questioning of a moderator's decisions or actions, users should contact the moderator(s) or admin(s) via private conversation (message).

  • 2b. Civility is mandatory and expected. This includes discussions between members but also applies to public or political figures.

  • 2c. Trolling behavior is not allowed on PrepperForums.net. This includes deliberately posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or highly offensive comments to disrupt the community or harass another member.

  • 2d. Do not disclose private information about members without their consent. (e.g., names, contact details, pictures, personal life, etc., including private messages, Facebook, email, and social media.)
3. Discriminatory remarks of any sort will not be tolerated. This includes degrading or offensive comments about an individual or group based on race, color, ethnicity, sex, sexuality, age, nationality, religious affiliation, or any other basis.

4. Please do not post messages or contact the moderation team on behalf of banned members. They are banned for a reason, and those reasons are not open for general discussion. However, banned users may contact the staff using Contact Us at the bottom of the page.

5. Member signatures and avatars should be appropriate. No excessively obscene or rude language/content is allowed. Your signature and avatar may not be used to harm, harass or insult fellow members or spread messages that are generally forbidden. We reserve the right to delete or edit members' signatures and avatars, if necessary.

6. Advertising on PrepperForums.net is only allowed under specific conditions.
  • 6a. You are selling your personal property and posting in the community's Marketplace Classifieds (for sale) section.
  • 6b. You are an approved vendor posting in the appropriate Vendor section of the community. Additionally, vendors are allowed limited posting within the Marketplace (classifieds) as per the vendor rules.
7. Profanity should be kept to a minimum in this community. No adult-rated material, links to adult-rated material, nor any form of nudity may be posted. In addition to nudity, all forms of sexual content (images, jokes, etc.) are prohibited from being posted within the public areas of this site. This includes images of scantily clad men or women. Please help us keep this site family-friendly.

8. Keep religion in the context of historical, political, and cultural contexts. Refrain from debating, or proselytism as this causes more flame fests and hurt feelings.

9. NO posting, commenting, linking, discussing, personal, or email messages of anything regarding the making of anything explosive or making any weapon fully automatic or illegal in your area as well as any area where it is considered illegal. This includes SBR (Short-Barreled Rifles), SBS (Short Barreled Shotguns), Machine Guns (Fully Automatic), Silencers, DD (Destructive Devices), Bores over 50 cal, Grenades, Bombs, Missiles, Poison Gas Weapons, or AOW (Any other Weapons) like cane guns or pen guns. Please keep the forum clean, healthy, informative, and LEGAL!

10. You may only post material and content that you own. Posting copyrighted material, trademarks, and other violations of the DMCA is prohibited.

Any violation of these rules may result in a private warning, formal warning, temporary ban, or permanent ban.

Our goal is to keep this site functional and friendly. Your assistance in achieving this goal is welcome and appreciated. :)

A Note On Free Speach
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
The First Amendment is greatly respected here, as are all other Amendments that the Second Amendment defends. PrepperForums.net is not listed in the Bill of Rights. We are, however, a privately owned venture and as such, your freedom of speech does not grant you a right to post anything you may wish to say on this forum. These rules are a contract you agree to when you become a member of this forum and members are expected to adhere to them. Those who err cannot complain about censorship or a perceived loss of first amendment rights.

If you have any questions about any of these rules, please reach out to an Admin privately for clarification. You can also Contact Us by email.
