*MEMBERSHIP REQUIREMENTS: To be a registered member of TwilightMOMS Forums you must fit ONE or more of the following requirements:
1. You must be age 25 or older.
2. You must be married.
3. You must be a mom.
If you do not fit one or more of these requirements you DO NOT have permission to be a part of this forum. If your age/maturity is in question you will be either contacted, warned, or blocked from this site immediately. This site is privately owned and is meant to maintain an exclusive membership and the owner reserves the right to do so as needed.

*MAKE YOUR FIRST POST IN "INTRODUCE YOURSELF". Post your story as a New Topic. Tell us a little about yourself, (age, kids, etc.) how you discovered Twilight/Stephenie Meyer and how it has changed your life, and anything else about the series such as your favorite characters, pages, Edward or Jacob, etc. Also, go easy on the "net speak" so everyone can understand you.

*REVIEW ALL THE FORUMS BEFORE POSTING A NEW TOPIC. Before you post a new topic make sure that you aren't actually duplicating another one or that what you want to say might be able to fall into an already existing topic or category.

*BALANCE!!! Limit your time on the computer so your loved ones and daily responsibilities don't get neglected. (I don't want to get TM hate mail from husbands/children/employers) Set rules or time limits for yourself. Many of us have had to do this (including me) and it does help keep everyone happy. Please Balance!

*NO CHARACTER OR CELEBRITY BASHING & NO ROLE PLAYING. If you don't like or hate any of the characters (or actors portraying the characters) in any of the books written by Stephenie Meyer, this site is not for you. Our discussions about the author Stephenie Meyer and her characters and stories are based solely on our love and enthusiasm for them. This site is just for FANS and there is a difference between discussing character flaws and bashing characters. If you do not know the difference, it is suggested that you do not make any negative comments regarding characters and/or hotties, as we are a very protective coven/pack when it comes to these people, be they fictional, real, or just a darn good piece of eye candy with no talent whatsoever.
On this message board there is to be NO role playing or impersonating. You may only be yourself on this site, and if you are caught role playing your account will be deleted and your IP address will be archived.

*BE NICE! DON'T BE EASILY OFFENDED. DON'T BASH OTHERS! Speak kind words to each other. Keep this forum a positive and fun place for moms to come and interact and make friendships. Think twice before you get offended over a comment. The author may not have meant any offense. Since we can't see each other's faces or hear the inflection in each other's voices, it is easier to take something the wrong way. Do not speak ill of or belittle any other members of this site OR any other site! Do not use PMs (personal messages) to backbite or gossip. Do not "vent" about what individuals on other message boards are saying, even if it is about TwilightMOMS. Just avoid drama altogether. TwilightMOMS is about bringing women with common interests together. It is meant to be a positive and uplifting place. As a registered member of TwilightMOMS, you are a representative of who we are as a whole. Please remember this as you visit other message boards. *Please see TwilightMOMS Code of Conduct and the TwilightMOMS Official Policy Regarding Offensive Comments Made Anywhere On The Web*

*DO NOT POST CONTROVERSIAL TOPICS. No religion or politics please. There are other forums for these kinds of discussions. There are many moms/women here, including me, who are LDS, however my site is NOT. I have a myspace group just for any LDS fans. To take part in LDS based religious discussions visit Twilighter-Day Saints. Religious discussions do take place here and there, but as long as no one feels offended and it seems reasonably pertinent to the books or the discussion in progress, I will allow it. (But I'm always watching! Use discretion! Lot's of discretion!)
I put my foot down on politics though! Absolutely no politically related posts are allowed! Even if I agree with them they will be deleted.


*KEEP IT CLEAN. Because opinions vary, this standard is difficult to define. Rating systems for television, movies, video games and books vary depending on what country you live in, which makes it impractical to reference "PG" or "Mature" as standards when we have active members all around the world. The best we can do is say . . . think "family-friendly" and appropriate to keep the forums clean. Specific guidelines will be posted where necessary and updated in the official rules. "Keeping it Clean" applies to all content, including usernames, avatars, signatures, pictures, words and innuendos. Where necessary, content advisories will be posted in forums or threads to alert members. Alerts can be interpreted both ways- to either steer clear or set up residence Keeping it clean doesn't mean you can't have mature, adult conversations and even have some fun.

*NO FOUL LANGUAGE OR INAPPROPRIATE PICTURES. Keep it clean- see above! Words used should be as clean as what you will find in any of Stephenie Meyer's books. Don't use any creative forms of the F-bomb, S-word, B-word, or Deity, etc. (Hell and Damn are acceptable.) This also includes rude/off color remarks about race, religion, nationality, etc.

No pics with private parts or questionable compromising positions. (However, if you have ANY of Henry Cavill, you are required to send them to me immediately!) All pictures of anyone posted on the public forums must be fully clothed- this includes avatars, signatures, etc . Paparazzi pics of Celebrities with their families are considered inappropriate pictures.

Pics of shirtless men (but not women, of course) are only allowed in the Sigh & Swoon forum- click here to find out how to request access to S & S! Do not share any sexual fantasies or innuendos about real people or fictional characters. Swooning and sighing are, of course, perfectly acceptable, but keep your thoughts about taking anyone home for the night to yourself. Or at least off the forums. Try to keep the line between fantasy and reality clear, especially when discussing or posting pictures of real people. Celebrities are real people, too. With feelings and mothers. Think about what that person's mother might think if she read what you wrote about him. (But don't let that deter you from ever posting a picture of a movie star again.)

*DON'T POST PERSONAL INFORMATION. This forum is available to anyone and it is smarter and safer not to reveal too much private info such as address, phone numbers, travel plans/locations/times, etc. Likewise, if you are uncomfortable with any pics of you or your loved ones being viewed by MANY strangers then do not post them. This is the INTERNET and anyone, anywhere, at anytime can see the content on this site.

*NOTIFY ANY VOLTURI MOM (moderator) IMMEDIATELY IF YOU COME ACROSS QUESTIONABLE CONTENT, IF THERE IS A SUSPECTED TEEN, A TROLL, A HATER, OR AN IRRATIONALLY IRATE SPOUSE POSTING. Be sure to include the username and forum they are posting in so it can be investigated right away. Do not get into arguments with trolls, haters or angry instigators. They want the attention. Replying to their negative comments only encourages them to continue. Do not give them the satisfaction of getting you all worked up. Just ignore them and report them.
Give the mods a heads up for any questionable content. There are an impossible amount of new posts everyday and not everything gets caught. Please lend a hand by bringing questionable things to the attention of the moderators covering the forum/thread/post in question. If they are not available contact any moderator or administrator that happens to be online.

*SORRY, I WILL NOT CHANGE YOUR USERNAME. The one you register with is the one you keep.

*THIS IS A SPOILER FREE SITE. This goes for all Stephenie Meyer books and any movies made from her books. Anything with a *WARNING! SPOILER* on it will be deleted, as well. No movie sides, scripts, out takes, etc. It is copyright infringement to post these kinds of things without permission from the legal owner. Again... NO SPOILERS!

*NO ADVERTISING OR LINKS IN YOUR SIGNATURE OR AVATAR. Advertising is something I will not allow as it has the potential to get out of control, become annoying, and just turn into spam. Any advertisements will be deleted.
-Links to fanfics are not allowed.
-ONLY Twilight and Host themed products are allowed to be advertised in a post in the "Vampire and Alien Apparel & Decor" forum. Nowhere else!
Links that are allowed in Avatars and Signatures are:
-Links to official TwilightMOMS Affiliates.
-Links to content within TwilightMOMS.com and TwilightMOMS forums.

*RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE. The right to participate in discussions and post on this forum and TwilightMOMS is a privilege subject to these Rules. Because this forum is hosted by FreeForums.org, posts and content are also further subject to FreeForums.org's Terms of Service. TwilightMOMS retains the right to deny access to anyone we believe has violated any of these Rules or any of FreeForums.org's Terms of Service, whether an actual violation has occurred or not. The privilege to post and participate in this privately-owned forum can be revoked at will by TwilightMOMS or by FreeForums.org. We understand that the rules and restrictions imposed by both FreeForums.org and by this privately-owned forum and site may make some participants feel limited in expressing yourself. If you find yourself feeling limited or restricted, you are encouraged and welcome to take advantage of your right to create your own forum or web site. Note: The First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution provides for Freedom of Speech. Generally speaking, this protection means the government cannot make laws infringing your right to free speech in public places. Freedom of Speech does not, however, allow you to post or say anything you want on this privately-owned forum or TwilightMOMS.com.
