1.Trolls will not be tolerated. TDM defines a troll as one who baits or posts inflammatory comments with the sole purpose of disrupting the board. Trolls will be subject to immediate and permanent banning without benefit of explanation or further contact.

2. Do not insult your fellow posters. You should feel free to disagree with others but we expect all members express their opinions without personally attacking other members. Posters that flagrantly attack others will immediately lose all posting privileges.

3. Do not post unsubstantiated rumors about the personal lives of anyone associated with the show. We aren't here to gossip about any of them. That being said, If something is reported in SOD or another legitimate publication, i.e., that so-and-so's marriage has ended or whatever, it can be discussed. Otherwise, don't discuss it on this board.

4. Do not insult the writers/producers/actors. If you want to complain about how "X" has written a terrible story or "Y" turned in a rotten performance, go right ahead. But don't call "X" a moron or "Y" an incompetent bitch. Critique the work, not the person.

5. Do not attack permanent physical features. Feel free to bash the artistry of the Emmy winning hair team, the spray-on tans and the overuse of the makeup gun. But physical characteristics like height and facial features should not be attacked. Wardrobe is fair game in all forums. So is hair. Days has a specific department that controls both of those. It's not like it's the actors making the decisions. We are free to critique the show's choices. Both are part of the production and are open to criticism and accolades.

6. No posting, personal messaging or emailing unsolicited advertisements/spam to fellow members.

7.Do not insult other soap fan bases. Feel free to make a negative observation on a fictional soap couple, but please do not make one on their fans.

If a violation of one or more of the rules occurs, then the following infractions may be imposed at the discretion of TDM STAFF.

1. Warning and a monitoring of privileges.
2. Suspension
3. Complete removal from the board.
