What if...

"What If...?"

Simply, "What If" is about what to do in a situation that may need the admin's attention. A bit like, how or when to raise the red flag here, or our little Q&A center.

Question: "What if my topic has been moved/closed even though it was still open/active?"
Answer: Tell one of us admin. We'll most likely move your topic back where it was.

Question: "What if my topic has been deleted?"
Answer: Tell one of us admin. If you think it has been unjustly deleted, tell us why. We would only delete a topic if we find it a violation of rules/Proboards TOS.

Question: "What if I see someone here who has stolen from someone/something else I know?"
Answer: Contact an admin, but don't get in an argument with anyone. We will confront them about the situation the best we can (just make sure you have some sort of evidence of this?). We will try our best to resolve the situation, but remember it may be difficult without knowledge or assistance of the person stolen from.

Question: "What if someone here has stolen from me?"
Answer: Contact an admin, but don't get in an argument with anyone. We will confront them about the situation the best we can (just make sure you have some sort of evidence?). We will try our best to resolve the situation.

Question: "What if someone has stolen some of my material that I posted here and used it for themselves?"
Answer: Tell us immediately. We will address the issue to the alleged thief, along with your defense. *Do not,* for the sake of our good name, go over and flame the other person. That's the last thing we want. We won't tolerate thieves here as well as anywhere else from one of our good members, so don't worry.

Question: "What if I see someone else has stolen [insert miscellaneous site item] from here?"
Answer: The best possible way to handle this would be to contact an admin (ME) with the site and address the alleged theft material. The worst possible thing to do would be to confront those people yourself. This could start an heated argument that really doesn't need to take place. We're the leaders, so we can handle it.

Question: "What if I see a copyrighted work being used here without credit given to the original owner?"
Answer: The best possible way to handle this would be to contact an admin (ME) with the site/owner and address the alleged theft material. If any copyrighted material has been posted here without proper credit, it must be fixed or removed immediately.
