Forum Rules. Please read!

[admin]

Welcome to Trade Cards Online Forums
Our open Forums are for you to use and enjoy! But we ask that you follow the Forum Rules and mind your internet manners; no spamming please, and always be nice to each other!

Please use the site's powerful Search Engine to look for cards or trades before you post an "I want this card, who has it?" question and make yourself look like a newbie. The Search Engine can scan across all members' cards and find what you're looking for quickly without having to wait for a reply to a post.

Keep in mind that all private conversation between you and others should be done via the site's messaging system and all trades should be performed using the Tracked Trades system so you have documentation of your trade and no confusion on the who, what, and when of your trades.

When trading you should ALWAYS follow our Trading Guidelines.
