Breaking any of these rules will result in an infraction and/or restricted access to the community, the severity of which is determined by the individual moderator. Break the rules again for any reason after receiving an infraction and you will be banned for a length of time determined by severity at any moderator’s discretion.

2. Please note that if an offense is severe enough you may be permanently banned without warning.

7. Any contract work acquired on the forums is done entirely at your own risk, this is an open community on the internet so be wise. If you have a bad experience please resolve this issue with the relevant parties. The Support Team and Community Team are not legally trained and cannot offer you advice or resolution. If in doubt contact your local law enforcement agency or attorney for legal advice.


The do’s

• Stay on topic – If you want to change the subject, start a new thread.
• Post in the correct forum – Look at the sections and their descriptions before you post.
• Be friendly and helpful – There is a huge array of skill level on the forum, we all started as n00bs
• Search before you post – The Forums and Answers are packed full of information so there may already be a solution.
• Add relevant thread titles – Please do not post a thread titled “Please help I have a problem” as it is likely to get ignored.
• Good spelling and grammar – Not everyone is a native English speaker and may not understand j00R L337 5P34|< or colloquial jargon.
• Be detailed – When posting about an issue include the version of Unity you are using and machine or device specs.
• Report Posts – Use these rules to report any violations across the Unity Developer Network. Make sure you provide usernames and an accurate description. This is especially helpful in lengthy discussions.
