Recently, we had to ban or suspend a good few new members. It never is a pleasure to lose a member.We need all individuals and groups who believe in and support RKBA. However, we have to ensure that this board runs smoothly and abide by the laws that govern forums like this.
Please follow these very simple steps to enhance your experience here.
1. No double ids-Only one id for one member- If you forget your password, simply email the admin.
2. Do not be rude to others and crude in your language.
3. No politics of whatever hue unless related to RKBA.
4. No trading without prior permission from the admin.
5. No illegal content- like posing with your country made/unlicensed guns or posting pictures of poached animals. You are the very type we are fighting against.If you are not a law abiding citizen, we don't want you here.
Please take time to read the forum rules and try to abide by them.

1. NO profanity/ swear words - first time offenders will be warned and the post edited, a repeat offence may result in a temporary or permanent ban.
2. NO posting of illegal content - this could be insinuations/ direct admissions of participating in/ abetting an illegal act, it could be posting something which encourages someone to engage in an illegal act or helps them do so, it could be posting pictures/ text of an illegal nature. By illegal here, we are referring to INDIAN LAWS. You are all smart people, I think you know what we mean - first time offenders will be warned and the post edited, repeat offences may result in a temporary or permanent ban.
3. NO THREATS of physical harm against another member - this will result in an immediate and permanent ban from the site.
4. NO racial/ religious/ castist/ regional slurs NOR any post which denigrates any community will be allowed - basically NO BIGOTRY will be tolerated here. Members making such posts will be immediately and permanently banned.
5. Any member trying to circumvent a temporary ban, by posting under another ID will be issued a permanent ban immediately!
6. NO TEXT SPEAK/ SMS LINGO will be tolerated here. We have no beef with poor grammar, merely laziness in typing out a proper post. First time offenders will have the offending post(s) deleted, repeat offenders will be warned. Failure to heed moderator warnings will result in the user account being suspended.
This is a privately owned venue and we aren't bashful when it comes to asking the unruly to leave....no matter who you are.
About personal attacks:
While we would prefer that members attack the post, but not the guy who posted it, SO LONG AS the above 6 rules are NOT broken - WE WILL ALLOW IT.
If you feel that another member has broken one or more of the above rules, please PM the moderators with the thread link (you can do this simply by clicking on the exclamation mark in a reverse triangle displayed on the top right hand corner of every post).
Bans will be issued based on the severity of the infraction. Minor offences, will be usually dealt with by warning the member via PM. Failure to heed to warnings will lead to a 24 hour suspension/ ban from the site, a repeat offence will result in a 1 week suspension/ ban from the site, members who still fail to mend their ways will be issued a permanent ban. Major infractions may also result in a member being issued a direct permanent ban!
Thank you for your time and please do keep these rules in mind and remember that this forum is for you all.
Best-
Vikram
