This is a private forum. Your membership here is dependent upon following a few, loose, rules, so that we can be effective. All content is considered to be copyrighted works of NBSSportfishing.com and is not to be copied without prior written permission.

You will have to register before you can view most of the content here.

Let's keep the discussion to the topic it is under. Keeping the threads and posts on topic, and focused around the varying aspects of marine fishing is imperative for NBS to be of value. We have no problem with humor and personal antics, as it livens up the place, let's just try to keep it on track. If it goes too far off track, we will simply lock the post up, and typically will leave it as is.

There is to be NO BASHING, whatsoever, of other forum boards.

The above is not all inclusive, but you get the point.

We are here to share information about the varying aspects of marine fishing and associated interests. We have not put this forum up to provide a venue for argument or criticism. It's all good to ask questions, post comments, and even retorts. If you have any real beef with a post, either take your concern to PM, or report the post (via the Report Post icon on each Post).

All Charter, Fishing, Boating, Tackle, and marine like businesses are free to put links in their signatures/avatars here on NBS Sportfishing. Advertising (and associated costs) in the forums, banners, and ad pages is available by following the Advertisers link at the top of the forum pages

Honestly, when posting a report, it simply doesn't matter. If you want to say where you fished, do so, if not, that's all good as well. We would rather know more of the details surrounding the outing (such as air temp, water temp, tide, wind, seas, bait, technique, etc.)

Rated R is the key word here. Nothing over and above that, period. Image/Text deletion will result if violated. Repeat offenses will result in membership deletion and permanent ban. We are all adults, mostly men (no offense intended ladies), so the posting of bikini clad ladies, in limited volume (or in a specific post for that stuff), is all good. The same would hold true for ladies wanting to post up pix of Chippendale type images.

If you have a message for a single person, or trouble with a post someone has made, use Private Messaging (PM) to address it.

Let's keep it to the "Bring It On" Section, ONLY

Over time, we will gain the involvement of varying regulatory personnel, on their own time. If you post a question in there, be patient for the response. They are busy folks, with organizations that are traditionally understaffed. If they have committed to providing guidance, they will get to us.

ARCTEKJim & Possum are the owners. Possum is the Site Administrator. 74Formula233, ChuckA, Andy, Bob & Mag & ReelCrazySportfishing are the Moderators

Beyond this, there may be a few others who moderate specific forums. Moderators and Administrators have final say in all matters, period. Their call is final, in all cases. None of us/them are here to censor or hinder your usage of NBS Sportfishing.

Use your head and basic common sense. If you do that, all should be good, unless you have no common sense or are here to cause trouble. There is no recourse once you have been banned. You are simply gone, and we are efficient at covering these bases, technologically. On this topic, simply because a person is banned does NOT mean they cannot be referenced or used in pictures, that would be ridiculous, as they are usually someone's friend, fishing partner, etc... You can feel free to discuss or mention banned members, as that is how real people socialize and operate.

There is a NBS Sportfishing Image Gallery available for use. It can be found on the forum menu bar, and is called Photo Gallery. Just click on the link and you'll be able to either view or upload images for use here on NBS Sportfishing. You can upload pictures and link them in posts, via the link text provided under the picture, which you can just copy and paste directly into a post.

For the most part, this is not an issue here on NBSSportfishing.com. There are a few forums where their names will be censored (******) here, due to ill will on the other party's behalf. We are about sharing information and are fully aware, and supportive of, other forums in this space. Limiting ones' access to information is not what we are about here.

Images posted on NBSSportfishing.com are inherently copyrighted by the same (unless copyright is held elsewhere). A watermark will be placed on all images in the Photo Gallery and attachments. This does not preclude any from using them elsewhere, only that said party needs to obtain permission from NBSSportfishing.com to do so. No charges will ever be levied, as this site has no intention of making any monies. This holds true for any smileys created by this site as well.
