Forum Rules Now, you probably don't need me to tell you that for a forums to function properly, you're going to need a few rules in place. It seems incredibly likely that some of you wouldn't agree with how things work, but you're just going to have to suck it up. The rules are here for a reason, and if you break the rules, you break the rules. Don't try to complain unless you really think you have a valid reason. If you do get banned, 99.9% of the time you will deserve that ban, and unless you did something extreme, your ban most likely won't last that long. The rules will be revised over time. Of course, I'm happy to discuss and take suggestions from the community to improve them. How warning and banning will work. Breaking the rules will either lead warning or a certain number of ban points. These are not the kind of points you will want to be trying to collect. Warnings will be applied to small offences, such as not following the guidelines for signatures, or posting the same thread in multiple forums. Two warnings for the same reason will result in a ban point. Ban points will be issued for breaking the rules. Depending on how extreme the offence was, you will recieve a certain number of points. Points can and will expire over time. Once you reach 5 ban points, you will reviece a ban. Exceeding 4 points will extend the length of your ban. The following list will show how long you will be banned for, depending on your number of ban points.
Rules: Post in the appropriate forum. This is pretty self -explanatory. Ideas for Ultra Hardcore belong in the non-Mindcrack UHC forum. Anything that doesn't regard Mindcrack of these forums should be posted in the Off-Topic section. Be respectful towards other users. Just because you don't agree with someone doesn't mean that they are a bad person. Settle disagreements maturely. Flaming and insulting other users is not allowed. This includes respecting people's privacy. Under no circumstances should you share a user's personal information. Keep it safe for work. No NSFW images should ever be posted on the forums, including pornography and gore. Putting it in spoiler tags does not make it okay. Linking to NSWF on external websites will be allowed as long as a) it's within it's own spoiler tag, b) it's labelled as NSFW and c) there is a significant warning describing what the user is about to see. Excessively sexual content in text-form is also not allowed, including those weird Mindcrack fanfics we've seen on the subreddit. Talk only in English. English forum - talk in English. Easy. Do not spam. This one is simple. No excessive posting in the same topic, or spamming the same thing over various topics. Stay on topic in posts. Derailing a thread with off-topic content is considered spamming. Let the moderators do their jobs. Do not attempt to police the forums yourself by calling out posts that break the rules. Instead, you are encouraged to report posts that break the rules, so that the moderation team can handle it without making a fuss. Do not self-advertise. This rules has some exceptions and we will be lenient with it. You should not be advertising something of yours for personal gain (such as asking people to subscribe to your YouTube channel). However, linking to something in your signature is allowed, as long as it is linked text that describes where the link will take you. For example, My YouTube Channel. Other exceptions to the rule include linking to your deviantART page in a fan art thread. Signatures:
That's all for now. Any suggestions for rules should be posted in the Suggestions forum. Edited by Antagonise, Aug 1 2013, 12:07 PM.
