Keep personal messages/info personal

Please do not give out any personal information. If someone would like to give out their information, that is up to them. Also, if you talked about something in private with someone else, keep it there. If you are caught giving out personal messages in the public, you are subject to disciplinary action.

Spamming in the boards

Spamming- stands for stupid pointless annoying messages. Spamming is very rude, and doesnt make a forum look good. Some example of spamming are:

Saying one word posts, posting something like "cool"
Double posting, posting twice in between a 24 hour period.
Posting random messages.
Posting a completely off-topic message.

Its the staffs job to keep the boards clean. Some people do not know they are spamming untill after they are warned, but continuing to spam after you have been warned of spamming can result in disciplinary actions.

Boards that are considered to have spam topics in them, and are active, will take away the post count option. Meaning posting in that board will not gain you posts.

Let the staff do their job

It is a staffs member job to keep the forum clean, and up and running. Members are here for the fun, to be free. Please do not play staff here. Staff are staff, not the members. If you try to act like a staff member, and you are not, you can be punished.

Abusing other members

Abuse could be many things:

Making fun of
Harassing
Calling names

If you feel you are being abused by anyone, report it to any staff member (Mini-mod, Moderator, Super moderator, administrator) If you feel you are being abused by another staff member, report it to an administrator, if you feel you are being abused by administrator, report it to Andrew.

The report will be taken serioussly, please remember you can also click the "Report to moderator" button in posts. Or if you need to report a personal message, click the "Report to Admin" button.

Locked topic pocily

Locked topics- topics that regular members can not post in, however staff members can.

Topics are locked if they are considered to be spammish, inactive, or not appropriate. topics musy be locked before removed by any staff member. After topics are locked, they are moved to the archives, where all regular members are still able to read them, but not post.
