1. Decent English Although we wont criticize for grammar or spelling within reason, please keep your posts easy to understand. No 'AIM' language, please. (ex: lol, rofl, brb) Also, please do not abbreviate words. (ex: u for you, bak for back, r for are, ect.) No "1337 sp33k" unless it's in the Spam Forum.
2. Respect All Members Although it's obvious that you need to respect Upper Staff such as Mods and Admins, you must also respect other members as well. This includes (but is not limited to): no flaming, respecting their opinions and beliefs, and no personal attacks through the forum OR personal messages. If there is a dispute, simply report it to an Admin.
3. No Excessive Swearing Do not overuse swearing unless it is in the RP forum and relates to the character's personality.
4. Post Reasonable Content in RPs Be careful with overusing swear words, overkill violence, blood, and gore. NO SEXUAL CONTENT IN ANY RPs UNTIL A 'MATURE RP SECTION' HAS BEEN MADE!!! This is due to having members younger than the legal age to view such content.
5. No Malicious Code Embedding Do not place any code in signatures, posts, or PMs that will alter the page or harm the forums or other member's computers in any way.
6. No Excessive Shorthand Although it is understandable that some topics will only be asking for a one line response, please provide enough content in your posts to actually contribute to the topic.
7. Double Post ONLY When Appropriate If there is a change that needs to be made to your post, please use the 'edit' button. Only double-post if it is absolutely necessary. If you are unsure if your double-post would fit this rule, simply message an Admin or Mod and follow the directions given by them. (Remember, we're here to help!)
8. No Inappropriate Pictures So not post any pictures that have a high risk of offending other members. Instead, post a short warning that it may be offensive, and post a link to the picture. ANY POSTING OR LINKING TO ANY PORNOGRAPHIC IMAGES WILL RESULT IN AN IMMEDIATE BAN FROM THE FORUMS!!!
9. Keep Signature Images the Correct Size Do not put an image in your signature that will stretch out the forums horizontally. Also, images in signatures may not exceed 150px vertically.
If these any rule is broken, they may lead to a warning or a ban, depending on the severity of the infraction. |
