Rules
This forum is intended to allow maximum freedom of expression and enjoyment for all members. As such, many of the standard rules that are found on most forums do not apply here. That is not to say that there are NO RULES at all. I posted a standard set of rules on the Welcome board, which I borrowed simply as an example for those who may have never read any before. I have refined them here, to better fit our own forum. This forum belongs to its members. It is intended for adults, so if you are not an adult, please leave now.
- It is up to the board moderator of each board to determine what is appropriate on their board. Please make posts that are appropriate to the board. You will find that on some boards, "anything goes" (almost) and that others are more traditional and stay close to a topic. There will always be some "off topic" posting, though, and that's OK.
- No spamming
- No posting excessively large pics, size or kb-wise. Try to keep it under 500X500 and 100 kb or so, otherwise it takes a long time to load, which is an annoyance for those with slow modems. (Does not apply to photo or art boards. Actually, this will only be enforced in cases of excessiveness or maliciousness.)
- No excessive swearing and shit. It just slows down your readers if every other fucking word is "fuck."
- No excessive flaming
- No insulting the staff pertaining to board management. Constructive suggestions and criticisms are welcome. You can have a go at us on other issues.
- No porn and no gory pics
- No malicious disruptions of boards
- No insults to members on grounds of religion, race, sexual orientation, etc.
- No 'Santa Worship,' real or satirical. Aside from being offensive to many, this can get the site attacked or shut down. ('Santa' = do the anagram. Scripting search engines be damned! It's OK to use in the context of a normal conversation, though.)
- No assumed or 'fake' multiple identities for troll purposes. Harmless, obvious spoofs are OK.
- "Spoiler" and "Not suitable for work" warnings are encouraged, where appropriate.
There is some flexibility to these rules; they are intended only as a guideline. Common sense and courtesy are your best guides.
Enjoy your forum.
