General Rules « Thread Started on May 26, 2008, 6:25pm »
The general rules for the site that you must follow at all times will be listed here. Below each one should be something like Result=_____. That is what you will be punished by if you break that rule.
**A reminder is nothing bad. It does not mean you're in trouble. It's just a... reminder. But excessive reminders will result in 1 warning**
3 warnings=1 week ban
5 warnings=2 week ban
7 warnings=1 month ban
10 warnings=2 month ban
15 warnings=Permanent ban
We will be keeping tabs on your warnings. ;)
1) The given - be kind to other members. They are realy people sitting in front of a computer/laptop, typing up messages with real fingers. Sure, sometimes you might accidentally sting them, but we still expect you to at least apologize. If a fight breaks out, do it over PM. Once it gets out of hand, alert a mod. Result=1 warning
2) Do not copy work that has been done by other folks, or claim it as your own. This is called stealing, and is very, very bad. How would you like it if someone saw your masterpiece story, copied it, and posted it on another website, claiming it as their own? Sure, it's the sincerest way of showing envy, but still... it feels bad. Just don't do it. Result=1 week ban; possibly permanent
3) No chatspeak or leetspeak. It's as simple as that. The only exceptions we will allow will be 'lol', 'rofl', 'brb', 'gtg', and any cute, yet readable, words you've twisted up (i.e. me-meh, confused-confuzzled, etc). Please, n0 1 cN ,undrStnD U&&&& 'wH*N u# t41K lYk d1$!!!!111!!!111 (Translation: No one can understand you when you talk like this!) Result=2 warnings
4) Please try to refrain from adult, racist, sexist, prejudiced, horror, or anything offending otherwise innapropriate content, including graphics, language, etc. There are children on this site. Result=2 week-1 month ban; possibly permanent
5) Spamming and double-posting is strictly forbidden. Well, double-posting is somewhat okay if it's on accident. But please, please try your best not to. Spamming, well, I don't think you can do that on accident. Spam stands for Stupid.Pointless.Annoying.Messages, and no one wants any of that. Result=2 week ban; possibly 1 month
6) Try not to swear/curse/cuss as much as possible. Again, there are children on this site, and some might be sensitive or unfamiliar with those words; and you can be teaching them bad things. >.> "Crap" is allowed, but don't use it if you don't absolutely need to. Result=1 warning
7) The first part of the codeword is Moon.
8) If you will be away and inactive for at least 3 days, please post in the "Going Away" board. Any member inactive for at least 2 weeks without warning will be deleted from the site. We might e-mail you a warning if needed, otherwise it will be without further attention. Result=Account Deletion
9) No huge signatures and fonts, please. No larger than size 3, please. Result=1 reminder; possibly 1 warning
10) Respect the mods and admins. They are here on this site to help you and let you have fun, and they earned that position. If you harras them or accuse them, or if you've spotted someone doing so, please PM me. Result=1 month ban; possibly permanent
