Terms of Use | Tiger Hype

Hey There

Welcome to TigerHype.com. We are excited to invite you to join the greatest LSU fan website ever created. Listed below are the TigerHype.com Terms of Use. A set of guidelines we require you follow in order to keep it that way. Our goal is to operate a one of a kind place for LSU fans to gather and interact with one another. The administrators rely on members to advise them of violations to the forum rules. -Ok, now that's out of the way... let's get down to business.

Terms of Use

Considering the real-time nature of this discussion forum, it is impossible for us to review posts or confirm the validity of information posted. Please remember that we at TigerHype.com do not actively monitor the contents of and are not responsible for any messages posted. We do not vouch for or warrant the accuracy, completeness or usefulness of any message, and are not responsible for the contents of any message. The messages express the views of the author of the message, not necessarily the views of this discussion forum or any entity associated with this discussion. Any user who feels that a posted message is objectionable is encouraged to contact us immediately by email. We have the ability to remove objectionable messages and we will make every effort to do so, within a reasonable time frame, if we determine that removal is necessary. This is a manual process, however, so please realize that we may not be able to remove or edit particular messages immediately.

1. CHOOSE your user name wisely when you first register. Search the Member List to check for names that are similar to yours. 

 

Usernames: Each person is entitled to one username per email account. Users found to have numerous “sock puppets” will face moderator action and possible loss of posting privileges. Usernames found to be inappropriate by TigerHype.com will be suspended, and the account holder will need to contact customer support for renaming the user account and reinstatement of posting privileges.
Using a “sockpuppet” to get around a suspension will result in a ban for the sockpuppet account, and a lengthened suspension for the original account.

Accounts may not be shared. If an account is found to be shared among more than one person, an indefinite suspension will be placed on the account until the user contacts customer support.

Usernames cannot directly reflect the name of a business or organization that is not a current advertiser without explicit, prior permission from TigerHype.com.

A username may be changed with good reason and at a reasonable frequency by emailing customer support. Provide the username you wish to change, the email address on the account, and a brief reason as to why you wish to change the username.



2. DON'T “Troll the forum.” “Trolling” is the act of creating a post in order to purposely anger members of the forum and create a negative response.

3. DON'T post statements, opinions, or views that are bigoted, racist, sexist, or hateful. Linking to sites that contain such content is prohibited and will get you banned.

4. DON'T engage in personal attacks on other users. Debate is expected and encouraged, but take the childish insults elsewhere. Moderators will be especially watchful for verbal abuse, ridicule, ad hominem attacks, and stalking. Keep it reasonable.

5. DON'T engage in baseless criticism of LSU athletes, coaches, administrators or recruits. Legitimate evaluation of a player's performance or a coach’s ability is allowed, but personal attacks and insults are not tolerated.

6. DON'T post ANY adult or sexually explicit content OR links to adult or sexually explicit content. This is a college football forum, not Only Fans.

7. DON'T post images that contain the following:

​

  • Nudity or strategically covered nudity

  • Sheer or see-through clothing

  • Lewd or provocative poses

  • Sexually explicit acts

  • Close-ups of breasts, buttocks, or crotches


Threads that do contain acceptable babe images should be labeled accordingly "NSFW" (Not Safe For Work) in the title.

7. DON'T link to acceptable images that originate from porn sites or sites that contain adult content. We suggest you use an image hosting site to host your image before posting them here. Again keep it reasonable.

8. DON'T use excessive profanity. Profanity is discouraged, and depending on the context in which it is used, might result in removal of your post.

9. CHOOSE a subject line that accurately describes the content of your post. Do not use deceptive subjects to attract attention to your post. Do not use one or two-word subjects that provide no description. And do not post in ALL CAPS, it's aggravating.

10. NEVER threaten violence, incite violence, or engage in (or encourage) illegal behavior. No one likes a keyboard warrior.

11. PLEASE take a moment to check for an existing thread on a topic of interest to you before starting a new thread.

12. DON'T post anything that could potentially harm (or embarrass) LSU or TigerHype.com

13. DON'T infringe upon the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of others.

14. DON'T attempt to sell goods or services, or direct users to commercial sites, without prior authorization from board management. Advertisements: Please note that advertisements (including promotion of other sites on the Internet), chain letters, pyramid schemes, and solicitations will not be tolerated on this forum. This includes forum postings, links, signature lines and private messages. The only posters who are permitted to function in this way have been pre-approved by the administrators at TigerHype.com as paying advertisers.
If a service is requested by a poster on the forums it is permissible to give contact information in response to that specific request.
If you are interested in advertising on TigerHype.com please contact us.


15. DON'T use avatar, sig images or sig text for political commentary.
Violations may subject the user to suspension or, in some cases, removal of the user’s account.

​

16. Premium content: Content published in any of the TigerHype.com premium forums is not to be posted on any other TigerHype.com forum, or other sites on the internet. Users found to be posting premium content from TigerHype.com may be subject to a suspension.

Premium material being shared on the other forums is not permitted. You have paid for the right to participate in those forums, but that does not mean you’re permitted to share that information with anyone you please.

We also ask that our users refrain from posting premium content on TigerHype.com from other sites as well. Users found to be posting premium content from other sites may be subject to a suspension.

​

  1. False and/or defamatory

  2. Inaccurate

  3. Abusive

  4. Vulgar

  6. Harassing

  7. Obscene

  8. Profane

  13. Post padding (posting for the sole purpose of increasing post count)

  14. Trolling (posting to purposefully antagonize other posters)
