Since we started the forums, we've had quite a few fans of the show, plus some welcome non viewers, sign up and contribute to these topics. Personally, that means a lot to me, as it means that the effort myself, the two Jamies, the Weirdy, Sim and the esteemed Drunken Editor put into the show and website isn't going to waste.

However, after surfing these forums, it's become apparent that some posts are going up that have no relevance to the topic at hand. Now, the occasional tangent or off topic discussion is expected, and is encouraged to a slight degree. But posts that do not add anything to the thread they're in won't be tolerated.

As such, I just want you guys to add something to the thread you're commenting in. "LOL :)" posts are not contributing to the discussion. Please think about what you're posting before you do it.

I think we've proven that we're fairly easy going when it comes to moderation around here. But the hammer will start swinging if we notice a sustained pattern of pointless posts.

Getting a bit serious on you there, I know, but I would rather these boards not go the way of some others. I hope you want the same.

EDIT: I think this sums it up perfectly.

Just wanted to add a few extra things.

*We're cool on Emulation talk. Just as long as no-one posts links to ROMs, then you can blab on about MAME or SNES 9X as much as you want.

*Try to keep relevant topics in their respective boards. They'll get a movin' if not, it just saves me time.

One more thing to add. I've noticed an increase in personal attacks and threats on here. Now, we have no issue with a bit of harmless ribbing. In fact, we encourage a sense of humour as a prerequisite fo using the forums. But if a post offends you or bothers you, report it, and we will assess the nature of the post. Do not post angry attacks against other users, as it doesn't help and may not be necessary in the scheme of things.

If you have questions about this, or any issues with people on these forums, contact the moderating staff via PM before doing anything else.

With the opening of Weirdy's Den (christ, I'm making this sound like an MMO patch), here's a brief explaination about the place.

Think the Something Awful fourms, the Aussie-iIntendo Spam hole, /b/ and more - it's that kind of adults only content. Absolutely anything can be posted, and anything can be said. Basically, the rule about flaming users? Not applicable. However, with this type of board, comes restrictions.

First off, you'll notice that it's been blocked off from general access. This is just to ensure that anyone who mistakenly wanders onto there doesn't see anything that can harm them. I mean, no-one wants to see a goatse image just unexpectedly. If you want to join, PM Jason or myself.

As well as that, no-one under 16 is allowed to join. I'm deadly serious about that. If you ask, you better be mature. Once you've requested, Jason or I will PM you back asking you to confirm this - be warned. Once you become a den dweller, there's no turning back and taking away access. You'll be scarred for life.

As for posting, again, post anything you want. There's only two things that we won't tolerate on the Den, Child Porn or hax/malware/spyware/viruses whatever. If we find out that you've posted it either of these things, or you've done something to another user that's become far too out of control, that's an INSTANT ban.

Otherwise, enjoy the new board.
