How BanglaGamer (BG) Forum Operates

The Forum Directors group is responsible directing BG.
They are the ones who work hard to make BG the best gaming community in Bangladesh.

The Administrators group is responsible for managing the forums.
It is recommended that you do not Private Message (PM) them for every single issue you have.

The Super Moderators group is responsible for coordinating all the moderators.

The Moderators (there's a lot of them) are responsible for managing their respective sections.

So...these Directors/Admins etc all are hotshots?
Absolutely NO. They are also gamers like you and me. There's no reason to be afraid of them.
Always consider them as regular members. Argue/joke with them if you feel like
If you don't, being one of them, personally at least I'd feel isolated from the community.

However, there are some special cases. These are described in the following post.

How to Contact with BG

• Use View Forum Leaders page to know who is responsible for which section.

• If you have any questions about any specific section
  • First, contact the one of the Moderators for that section using Private Message (PM).
  • If you are still unhappy, contact an Super Moderator.
  • As a last resort, you can contact an Administrator.

• Use the feedback section if you
  • want to suggest something (related to BG)
  • want to comment on something (any BG features)
  • are facing some problem with the forums

How to Become a BanglaGamer Staff/Official:

• Help around the community, be active, participate in competitions and discussions.
• Report posts when you see if its breaking any rules.

• Do not ask anyone if you can become a staff/official/moderator/admin.
• If we think you are doing great and will need more staff we will contact You.

What to do if a post offends you

• Say, "NO thanks" ()
• if it is too much offensive or is a spam post, you can also report via this button:

What to do if you think a member is violating BG rules

• Use the Private Msg system to PM an Admin/SuperMod

Infraction Rules:

• For different types of abuse/misuse/inappropriate behaviors, there are different points of infractions.
• Occasionally, for severe violation, you may receive arbitrary points of Infraction. So watch out!
• If your points add upto 8, you will be temporarily banned from the forums automatically.
• Infractions have a expiry date i.e. once you receive an infraction, it will expire itself after a specific period of time.

if you happen to break forum rules, forum leaders will give you infractions (kind of a warning).
At that time, and only at that time, you are not allowed to argue with them.

If you feel that the infractions were unjust, complain to an Admin/Director (using PM).

Remember, you are NOT allowed to discuss these kind of disputes in public.
Even if you are innocent, taking these disputes to public** may result in an instant BAN.
