Hey, nobody likes rules too much but we have to make them in order for things to run smoothly here 
1) Members must be 18 or older to be approved.
2) No Flaming. If you flame other members you'll get a couple warnings, and risk suspension or deletion of your account depending on how bad you were
a) Under the no flaming rule, this also includes attacking others beliefs. Questions and even debates will be allowed, but such things cannot get out of hand to the point you are offending other members. Of Elven people there are some who believe they are elves physically or spiritually, and some who just identify with Tolkien and other elven writers. Some are Christian, some are Pagan, and some inbetween. As Members we agree to respect others personal beliefs. Just look for Members whose profiles are compatable with your own.
3) Please do not post addresses and phone numbers on the forum. If you meet someone of interest you want to get to know better, you can exchange addresses or phone numbers by Private Message. We will edit and delete any addresses or phone numbers posted on the forum.
4) Please do not post last names on the forums. Use your username or your first name only. Last names can be exchanged in Private Messages.
5) No stalking or harassing. This goes above and beyond flaming and if the administrators get complaints that this is happening it will be investigated and accounts of members doing the stalking or harassing will be deleted.
6) Please do not steal someone elses photo from another website and use it here! Yes, people actually do that. I know someone who is a model and people steal her photos all the time and create online profiles with them. If anyone is caught doing this their accounts will immediately be deleted. Such activity is deceptive.
7) Please be honest in whatever information you post in your introduction and profile. This not only includes all of rule # 6, but especially things like age and profile information such as education, employment, etc. In other words don't say you work as an executive if you really work at MacDonalds! People tend to respect honesty more than exaggerated claims, especially if those claims later prove false. This will apply especially for single people seeking partners.
That's about all for now. Pretty simple, huh?
Thanks!
