No Backseat Moderating
Let the moderators do the moderating. Backseat moderating is when people who are not moderators try to enforce the rules. If you see a person breaking the rules, take advantage of the "Report post" link at the top right of a thread or simply ignore the offensive post(s), thread, or review.
Report Posts to Moderators
Should you observe a fellow Community member breaking these rules please report the post or item by clicking the "Report post" link at the top right of the post button located on every item, post, and review.
Repeated Offenders
Repeated offenders of the above rules and guidelines will be banned from the Community. Any moderator has the ability to ban a user for violating the rules at their discretion.
