There's a set of simple rules to be followed, and this set is still incomplete, but please follow them:
-> No Double Posting <-
Try not to double post. If you need to add something, edit your previous post. You may double-post in O.O.C. to a certain limit, which is considered a "bump" to it.
-> No Spamming <-
Spamming is forbidden. If you spam, you will receive 20% warning, and so on until you reach 100%, which equals an instant ban.
-> Avoid Forum Chatting <-
Avoid chat inside threads to reduce litter, please. Off-topic conversations should be made in Private Messages, or do a topic for that purpose, but only if it isn't a pointless discussion.
-> Ten character minimum limit <-
This is implicit in the rule above, since about 90% of posts with less than 10 characters are chat. Therefore, please do NOT write and post with less than ten characters.
-> No creating pointless topics <-
No creation of entirely random/pointless topics that offer no meaningful discussion; these include topics that 'brag' about reaching a certain post count.
-> Credit for Quote <-
Come on. It doesn't hurt. When quoting from another forum, website, etc., put the member's name in the quote and the website/forum it came from. It doesn't even occupy any space, and its easy to put. Please.
-> Keeping PG <-
Both your profile, avatar, signature, etc., should be kept at a PG level.
-> NO Account Sharings <-
Do not share your account information with ANYONE. Moderators and administrators will never need this information - please PM a staff member immediately if someone asks!
-> No flamming <-
No flaming (this includes racial slurs, stereotypes, condescending remarks, etc.
i.e. You can go to hell, etc.)
