III. No Backseat Moderating:
Let the Forum Moderators do the moderating. Backseat Moderating is when people who are not Moderators try to enforce the forum rules. Whenever you see a person breaking the rules, report this to a moderator. Or simply IGNORE the offensive post(s) or thread. The most common backseat reply is the "+1 in before lock" phrase.
