NO postings of comments which glorify violence, **** like content, bashing or statements with racist or religious hostilities. Don’t post any ****ographic things like pictures or videos. If you do that you will be banned.
Also discussion of illegal activities such as video and music piracy and other intellectual property violations are not allowed. If you do that you will be warned and in the case of repeated reminders you will be banned.
If a member brings a valid and serious complaint against you....you will be warned and then if your behaviour does not improve you will be banned.
Members will disagree, and it is encouraged that you voice your opinion. However, mocking, insulting, and any form of sarcasm of other members will not be tolerated. If you have a problem with someone, please send them a private message, or contact an admin. In the same light, insulting other actors/actresses of Bollywood past a certain extent will also not be tolerated.
No bashing of stars, calling them names, or anything of the sort. If you keep doing this, your posts will be deleted. You keep posting, we'll keep deleting. If you don't like the star, stay out of a topic that has their name in the subject line.
Spamming on this message board is defined as posting the same thing over and over in the same thread or section, or across two or more sections. It is also posting excessively in a short time with brief posts of just a few words. Repeated posts void of substantive content or relevance to the discussion or forum may also be considered spam. Repeated spamming will result in a warning, and could ultimately get you banned, regardless of the content of the spam or your reason for spamming.
When posting news, please include the source. And please make sure it is from a reputable source and that your news has not already been posted. Search carefully!

I. Video Gallery
This is the (only) place to share links to youtube / myvideo. You don't even have to go to the youtube / myvideo site but can watch the video directly on AsianOutlook.
There are special rules for sharing youtube / myvideo links:
1. The video link you want to share has to fit in one of the pre-set categories. We will moderate this point very strict – every video that does not fit into the category where it is posted in will be deleted.
2. Links to videos that are supporting piracy are prohibited! Don't post links to whole movies! AsianOutlook does not support or tolerate piracy in any term!
3. In any exceptional case or if you're not sure if and/or in which category to post a link ask one of the responsible moderators in advance! II. Exclusive AO Videos (Special downloads)
The videos here are uploaded directly on our own server by a selected group of moderators/members. The video material uploaded here either is copyright AsianOutlook or we have got permission for it.
For uploading your own videos on AsianOutlook here please contact one of the authorized persons for assistance: Gita, purzel, Gabrielle, Starbreeze, Alexxia, SR41 or Feelicia
Video and other material of the movie Om Shanti Om:
On request of Shahidji we have to take special care of any promotional and copyrighted material connected to OSO (we already deleted download links to OSO trailers and promo videos some time ago). This also had to be extended on the book ‘Making of Om Shanti Om’ by Mushtaq Shiek and other things might follow.
Please do not post scans of the named book, download or direct links to OSO trailers, promo videos and other clips especially not of those from the OSO and Eros web site.
Write in proper English
Please don't write in "text messaging" style, like „rit ur msgs lyk ths“ or "hey i fink shahrukh and gauri look gud 2gether i ain't ever meet shrukh b4 even if he came 2 manchstr i wud love 2 meet him“ We have many members here at AO whose native language isn’t English and many of them are still learning.
In order to give all our members the chance to understand you postings we ask you to use proper English please, complete readable words and sentences!
Posts in text messaging style or similar type of language will be deleted without warning.
