 * EPBS "Egypt Today" is meant for general chat.  Sometimes the board scrolls very quickly.
 ** Posts that are direct attacks of other players, or which use lot of cursing or insults will be deleted.  But please try to chat the poster before you delete the post.  Ask them if they can rephrase the post.  Most will comply. Ask to move conversation to private chat if it became to heated.
 *** Explicit Sexual, violent or slanderous comments will be censored.
 ** Posts that are blank or contain gibberish characters (often made by children or pets hitting the keyboard or macros gone wrong) can be deleted.
 ** Duplicate posts from the same poster, sometimes made in an attempt to spam the board, will be deleted.
