Forum Rules​

1. No Spam, abusive word in the forums​

These forums define spam as posts with little, or completely unrelated content and links to malicious websites, trolling, repeating same reply essentially.
Spamming also includes sending private messages to a large number of different users.

DO NOT ASK for email addresses or phone numbers for promotion, marketing purposes from any members.

Your account will be banned permanently and your posts will be deleted.

2. Do not post copyright-infringing material​

Providing or asking for information on how to illegally obtain copyrighted materials is forbidden. Such materials will be removed without further notice.

3. Do not post “offensive” posts, links or images​

Any material which constitutes defamation, harassment, or abuse is strictly prohibited. Material that is sexually or otherwise obscene, racist, or otherwise overly discriminatory is not permitted on these forums. This includes user pictures. Use common sense while posting. This is a web site for Assamese, so we follow traditional values and decorum of an Assamese society.

4. Do not cross post questions​

Please refrain from posting the same question in several forum categories. There is normally one forum category which is most suitable in which to post your question. If you think you posted in wrong forum category you can massage forum management to move your thread post to appropriate forum category.

5. Do not post threads in wrong forum category​

Make a new thread in the appropriate forum then the whole community can help and benefit.

6. Remain respectful of other members at all times​

All posts should be professional and courteous. You have every right to disagree with your fellow community members and explain your perspective.

However, you are not free to attack, degrade, insult, or otherwise belittle them or the quality of this community. It does not matter what title or power you hold in these forums, you are expected to obey this rule.


General Posting Guidelines​

We figured this was necessary because a lot of people come in and post threads without thinking, and without realizing that there is no possible way they could get help because of the way they posted the question. Here are some general guidelines.

1. Please use SEARCH first!​

There is a pretty good chance that unless you have some really odd or unique problem that it has been addressed on our forum before, please use the forum’s search feature first to see if there are already some good threads on the subject. It’s easy to search – just click the “Search” button at the top right of the page.

2. Be DESCRIPTIVE and Don’t use meanningless topic names​

PLEASE post a descriptive topic name! Give a short summary of your problem IN THE SUBJECT. (Don’t use attention getting subjects, they don’t get attention and only annoy people).

Here’s a great list of topic subjects YOU SHOULD NOT POST :
Help me, Hello, Very urgent, I have a question

Generally ANYTHING similar to those is unacceptable. Just post your problem.

Here is a good example of a way to post a question

“Where will be Rongali bihu celebrated in USA”
or
“How can I host an art exhibition in Srimanta Sankardeva Kalakshetra in Guwahati”

Remember when people help you, they are doing YOU a favor​

Be patient, help people out by posting good descriptions of what you need help with, and not snapping at people with garbage such as
“if you aren’t going to help don’t waste my time replying”.
