Por si alguien esta interesado estan son las reglas de FileHeaven:
Fileheaven Forum Rules
04/08/2004, a new set of rules and guidelines has been implemented at Fileheaven (as announced here). Please take your time and read them well, because they are effective immediately, and not knowing about them might cause some confusion that can easily be avoided. All sections that have had their rules updated are mentioned below.
1. General
1.1 The official language is English.
1.2 Keep the focus: Topics / Posts outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved, locked or simply be deleted.
1.3 Be nice to each other, avoid flaming and respect the moderator. Profanity and insults will not be tolerated. If you have a problem with another member, a decision or whatever, turn to the respective moderator and if the moderator can't help you send a private message to TurnIP, Garandou or Triaxos.
1.4 Do not spam. No cross posting. No blatant advertising. No selling or trading.
1.5 Don't misuse the html-function in your posts.
1.6 Don't use big pictures in your signature/Avatar. Avatar size limit=120*120 pixels, filesize < 24 kb. Signature size limit=700*120 pixels (120 pixels ~ 8 lines of text) and less than 50kb filesize.
1.7 Use a title that describes the content of your post. Don't use all caps or special characters to draw attention.
1.8 Don't post just to increase your number of posts. The number of posts on this board has no direct relation to the experience of a member.
1.9 No details of privatelife are to be posted.
1.10 Multiple registrations are prohibited.
1.11 Don't post serials or keys. You can post a link to a text file, that contains it.
1.12 No politics or religion
2. Newbies
2.1 Read the Forum Rules. Good Smile
2.2 Read the FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions), before asking a question.
2.3 Read the Stickys / Announcements of the section before posting.
2.3 Do some searching before asking a question.
2.4 Respect the netiquette: Lurk and get to know the forum before you post.
3. Additional rules for the general sections (new)
3.1 The general sections (Smalltalk, Maniacs Inn and Fileheaven.org) are where people meet to discuss forum matters, movies & music and trivia. They have played an important part in building the FH community and will continue to do so. In contrast to the other sections there are no specific guidelines for the general sections, which means you can post pretty much anything you like. Occasionally a user (mis)interprets this freedom as a right to start flaming or insulting other users.
This is not acceptable behaviour.
3.2 Sanctions
Until now, the only thing the moderators could do in the event of users behaving unacceptably was to edit/lock threads (which doesn't really solve the problem) or ban the user (which we don't like to do).
To fill this gap a warning system is now introduced. It works like this: If a user misbehaves, he/she gets a warning. After three warnings, the user is restricted from posting in the general sections for a month. He/she can still read the section. We believe in second chances, so after the 1-month period, the user start with a clean sheet. Furthermore, warnings expire after a month.
Q: So what kind of behavioiur is considered 'bad'?
A: scroll to the top: 1.General Wink
Q: How do I know if a user has been warned or temporarily restricted from posting?
A: You don't. We respect the user's privacy, so only the moderators will have this information. All communication about the warning system will be resolved by PM.
Q: How about banning?
A: We hope this will not be necessary with the new system. However, if a user continues to break forum rules, he/she will be banned and you will be informed about it.
4. Releases
4.1 Only post releases in the appropriate sections. Don't post for an example a release in a request thread, only the link to the release thread.
4.2 This forum is organized in a way that it doesn't need [REL] or [REQ] anywhere, so don't use them.
4.3 Please include always the relevant filesharing links and don't just link to other sites.
5. Changes for the release-sections (new)
5.1 Changes for Movie Releases
We now have 7 sections:
- MPEG <2000
- MPEG >2000
- Lesser Quality
- Unverified
- SVCD
- DVD-R
- Requests
You can see that the LQ & Unverified section has been split. The Unverified section contains releases for which no specs are available, because the source is unknown and nobody has been able to download it yet. The LQ section contains releases from non-DVD sources (laserdisc, VHS, DVB etc) as well as DVD-rips that have (an) obvious flaw(s). Don't let the title of this section fool you: some VHS rips have really good quality, whereas the picture quality of a DVD can occasionally be poor. But some kind of subdivision is needed to help you find the rip you're looking for. Ideally, the LQ section will mostly contain rare movies for which no DVD exists, and the MPEG sections will contain only high quality DVD-rips.
Q: What is quality?
A: There are various 'quality standards' in use by release groups, but not all of them make a lot of sense. Therefore we have defined our own standard. Read it here.
Q: My release on which I spent a whole evening has been moved to LQ. Are you telling me I suck?
A: No. The FH Quality Standard is high because we love movies. Don't be discouraged if your first release doesn't work out perfectly. We all make mistakes and we try to learn from them. There are a lot of users who are more than willing to help you out when you are having problems with ripping/encoding, so don't hesitate to ask!
5.2 Changes for Apps/Games
This section is still being discussed. As a temporary measure, we ask you not to post any Microsoft applications or games.

Hasta la vista babe....
