These are the forum's rules. They are fairly simple so it shouldn't be a problem.
- No spamming (No more than 1 consecutive post, please edit your previous instead). Conditions apply.* - No massing emoticons! :P :P :D :D - No profanity (Try to keep it clean, so we don't have to put in 'word filters') - No abusing the Private Messaging System. - No harassing and/or flaming other members. - No cluttering up the forum with useless and/or pointless topics/posts. - All avatars and pictures must be "clean". - Do not post inappropriate content. - There is a scaling restriction on signature pictures; no dimensions over 625x225, or it will be removed. There are different restrictions for vertical pictures. - This isn't a warn topic, nor rule, but for the forum's sake, please try and keep your avatar pictures under 100x100, once again, unless it's vertical. - An Admin can warn you for breaking any of the stated rules, or at their own discretion, they can also warn you as many times as they see fit. - The admins reserve the right to move, edit, and delete posts/topics/polls for any reason or no reason. - In addition, Admins reserve the right to edit or delete any or all information stored in accounts. This means things such as signatures/avatars/addresses/interests/ etc.
* An Exception and/or 5 days have passed since the last post.
How it is going to work is that we have the warning system in place, every time a rule is broken you will have one added to the warning bar, this bar has five slots and can be seen under your avatar. The first 2 warnings are freebies and have no effect. The third will revoke your posting rights for 5 days, the fourth will suspend your account for 3 days and the fifth will ban you from the forum. If you get a warning don't Panic! If you do not abuse the system again it will be degraded eventually. (Except if you have 5 warnings and are banned.)
The material in question will be removed and you will have an email sent to you telling you why you were warned. The rules aren't hard so just stick to them and have fun! ~Ahriman |
