[♔Chello]

Chellos Keyboard Players Club "Rules & Guidelines"
These rules are in place to ensure this forum remains a nice friendly place to visit at all times.

New Members
It is a requirement of your membership that you as soon as possible introduce yourself to the membership in the Introductions board that is found towards the top of the forum.



Language
As this is an English forum, members are reminded only to post in English, or at least offer a translation. Google Translate can be used for this.



Etiquette
Members are expected to be courteous at all times, you are free to debate subjects, however this must be done in a friendly respectful manner.
Any personal attacks towards any member or staff will not be tolerated, and will result in your eviction from this forum.

Threads, posts and reply`s can only be deleted if they violate our rules or are not related to the relevant thread. 
Constructive criticism must and should be tolerated.
The best part is always to explain and clarify your opinion - members must be allowed to have different points of view.

Please press Like when you read an article or download something - this is important for you to be able to continue downloading and to get extended download options.

You are also expected to write some words to the person who uploaded the files if you download any.
It should be avoided to use only smileys in the reply`s so as to quickly obtain a high number of posts.
Those that do not follow this etiquette on a regular basis will be denied access to the files.



VPN
The Use of VPN to hide your ID upon registration is not allowed and will be rejected.
Likewise - all use of VPN within the forum is to be considered as a basis for mistrust and may result in exclusion.



Asking for Help
Please do not PM (Private Message) the staff for answers to your questions, post your question in the forum so every member can benefit from the solution.



Member Groups
Member groups in this forum are post count based, you will start off as a “New Member” if you have zero posts, as your post count increases your member group will be automatically upgraded to the next level.
New Members have limited access to downloadable files until they have made enough posts. Once they reach the next level they will be able to download more files. The more you post the more you can download.
Be active!


The groups are as follows:

New Member
Junior Member
Senior Member
Best Member
VIP Member
SUPPORTER Member


New Membership automatically assigns new members, giving a limited access to viewing content, and downloading is limited to certain areas.

SUPPORTER Membership can only be obtained with purchase.
Provides full access to all files in all areas.
Can be purchased for £ 25.



Downloaded Files
Downloaded files should not be redistributed to other persons or forums:
Sharing files with others inside (members with lower status than the file requires) or outside this forum is not allowed, because such activities undermine our work and future.



Spamming
If your only intention is to try and spam this forum you will be given a free gift from the Admin, "A Permanent Ban". 
Spammers are not welcome in this forum ever !



Profiles
It is important that you update your profile, such as what keyboard(s) you use.
This saves staff and members unnecessary work trying to figure this out and makes it easier for everyone to help each other.

I think its so important that people read articles, share experiences, press the like button especially if you're downloading content.
And give constructive feedback and praise where applicable otherwise the member just gets disheartened by the lack of participation.

This forum is unique in terms of content, tutorials and experience, lets give it the support it deserves.

I agree wholeheartedly with what Colin has said here. Why do you visit a forum in the first place? Presumably to pick up ideas and give you some insight into what else you can do with your hobby of playing music.

If you have any gems that you think other Members would appreciate knowing about .. then post them. If nobody put anything up then there would be no point visiting the forum at all!  So thank you to all the Members who do put things up that they think we would like to know about.

PS. At the top of each Thread there are STARS. This should be an indication of how relevant the content of the Thread is. So if you think what you are reading will be of real interest to others .. give it some STARS! As the stars refer to the whole topic and not just to one specific post (which is the case when clicking a LIKE), the stars can be clicked on at any time. Maybe do this as a conversation develops. If there are NO stars, the number of stars you click on will be allocated. If the thread already has stars, then just one more star will be added, however many you click on. This Thread already has 5 stars.
