Forum Rules

Forum Rules
No Spamming
First rule no spamming the forums. S.P.A.M. also know as stupid pointless annoying messages will not be tolerated. If you don't have anything worthwhile to say then don't say it. Plesae try to keep yoru messages clean, grammatically correct to the best of your ability, and if your message is not longer than a couple of lines than it is probably not worth posting. Make sure you have something real to say. I am tired of people posting 1 or 2 word messages.
Stay On Topic
Please try to stay on topic. Do not go off and start talking about random things that in no way what so ever relates to the thread. Also, please try to follow the rules of the individual forums such as the Serious Discussion forum. Immaturity there is unacceptable and you will be issued a warning point if you cannot follow that simple rule.
No Fake Topics
Do not make up info and post it. We had a brief problem with that and it is simply stupid and it does nothing more than piss people off. I'm mainly talking about ZeldaGirl who started a topic about a fake N64 Zelda game named King of Krones. Not only did she lie about it here but she did it on messenger as well.
Treat Members Nicely/Flaming
Treat others the way you would like to be treated. Do not bad mouth or talk about other members in a rude or profane way. This will not be tolerated. For example, recently in the Setious Discussion forum a couple of our members decided they wanted to try and get a specific forum member to talk about mastrubation. That was not only rude but it was completely out of line. It is the member's decision if they would like to discuss various things. So if they don't want to participate in a conversation than do not try to make them.
Flaming, for those of you that don't know what this is. Flaming is basically when you turn on another individual and you start bashing them and or their beliefs. Everybody is entitled to thier opinions so do not start an argument with somebody if you do not agree with the views.
Cussing
I allow cussing. Why? It's a forum and sometimes you need to cuss o get your point across. With this said I do not want you to go crazy and start cussing all the time. That is simply not needed and your post will be edited. Do not make me regret this decision so please try to keep your language within reason.
Double Posting/Topic Bumping
This should be self explanatory. Do not double post. If you have something else that you would like to add then simply click the "Edit" button and make the appropiate changes. The only people that can double post is me and the moderator leader.
See how easy that is? Okay now for Topic Bumping. If nobody wants to comment on your topic than that's that. Do not post in it again to raise it back to the top.
Topic Revival
Do not post in a topic more than three months old. If you would like to discuss the subject than you have permission to start a new thread on it. Keep in mind however that it is not alright to start a new thread on the same subject if it is not more than three months old.
Ban Points and Warnings
If you choose to ignore the rules then warning points will start to be issued. For the first few infractions I will be lienant on you and you will recieve nothing more than a verbal warning. After that I will start handing out Ban Points. Once you receive 10 of these then you will be temporarily banned. The length of your banishment will be determined by the mods and me. We will discuss what you have done and issue a punishement that fits the infractions.
If you would like to complain to me about a warning or ban point then PM me or the mod that issued it. Do not start a topic complaining about it because that will do nothing more than piss us off.
Respect the Moderators
The forum mods are the people that have managed to gain my trust to get moderating powers. So, do as they say and there should be no problems. Do not argue with them and there will be no problems. They have the final say in whether or not a topic is locked. If you feel their judgement was unfair than again do not start a topic complaining. Send them a PM and politley ask for it to be unlocked.
