Okay, there are a few rules, as with every forum.
Now for the not so fun part. The warnings and bans. For breaking any of these rules you will go through levels of warnings and bans.
There are exceptions to some of this such as if what you do is something I believe is completely wrong I may skip a few of the levels to the punishment I deem appropriate. I think three warnings are more than enough to realize you are doing something wrong, but I really don't want to have to give out warnings or ban people. So just follow the rules and everything should be fine.
- Respect all Admins, G-Mods, and Mods. If they ask you to amend something in your post, or profile, please change it or you may receive a warning, and eventually a ban if the problem persists.Do not harass them or talk back to them when they have told you something. If you really have a problem with them, take it up in PM's or through emails.
- Respect your fellow members. I do not want to see bashing or constant put downs of members and their opinions. If you don't agree, you can say that, but don't bash anyone.
- Keep it clean! This forum is open to people as young as 13, so keep that in mind when you post or when you put something in your profile. All inappropriate content will be removed when found and the member involved will be warned or banned.
- Watch your profanity! I will allow some cursing on this site, to an extent. If I feel you have crossed a line, then I will edit your post or I may have to set up the censors.
- Don't ask to be a moderator on the site. Doing this will not help you in any way as I will not give you the moderator position. I'll make the members moderators who I believe deserve it.
- Contribute to the forum. Please don't join to simply advertise your site. If you do so I'll send you a PM about it and if I receive no answer after an acceptable amount of time I'll delete any posts you made that posted links to your sites as well as your account. No one wants a member who's not going to post.
Now for the not so fun part. The warnings and bans. For breaking any of these rules you will go through levels of warnings and bans.
- Warning - First Offense
- Second Warning - Offense is repeated or a new offense made.
- Third Warning - Repeated again or new offense.
- Week Ban - If you do not comply with the first three warnings then you will be banned from the forum for a week.
- Month Ban - After the week ban, if you continue to break the rules you will be banned for one month.
- Complete Ban - If even after a month you are STILL not following the rules, I will be forced to ban you from the site forever.
There are exceptions to some of this such as if what you do is something I believe is completely wrong I may skip a few of the levels to the punishment I deem appropriate.
