You will not be expected to know these off by heart, a lot of rules are not written but are taught to you by your parents, like having good manners, a decent moral code and respecting of the players to treat them all equally, but if you had **** parents then read these.
a) Treat everybody equally, do not discriminate in any way, respect everybody especially if you are are given a responsible rank.
b) No factioning, do not support people's applications or ban requests, purely because you're friends with them, do not oppose people's ban appeals because you do not like them, have a real, honest, logical background and purpose for your comments, do not favour someone's application because you think they will support your own, any hint of factioning will be cruely put down, and may result in a demotion and a block on being able to apply in the future.
1. Any Inappropriate images/names will receive a permanent ban, with no warnings. This is because the host does NOT tolerate anything as of such, and by doing this you are threatening to get the forums closed down.
2. No swearing, I trust you are all sensible and of an age where you know the English language well enough to not swear, It's annoying for me to read because it shows immaturity
and a lack of comprehension.
3. Please use English on the forums only.
4. Any links to any pornographic websites, or links that give you viruses etc will get you perma banned. No questions asked.
5. Be respectful to other users on the forums. (No insulting etc)
6. Normal users are not permitted to create topics in the announcement forum; however they are still free to post in staff member’s topics. It is here for us, the staff to announce important stuff, not for normal users to create topics about random crap.
7. Racism is NOT tolerated.
8. Flood and off-topic: Flood must be avoided. One-word posts such like “lol”, “rofl” or a single smiley must be avoided. (Unless you have something good to post, and something to input to that topic, Don't post.)
9. Colours and capitals and size: When you write your message, please don’t abuse capitals (it means that you shout), colours and bold. Re-sizing your text is also a bad idea. Overly large text resembles screaming.
10. If you make a mistake, or have anything else to add on to your post, use the EDIT button! Do not double post.
11. It is forbidden to post any advertisements for any external websites especially money related websites as most of our members are under the age of eighteen.
12. If you received advertising, pornographic content or insults by PM, you must send the whole message and a screenshot of that message to an Administrator via PM. Posting it in a topic is useless and will more than likely cause conflict.
13. Do not moderate other members; moderating is reserved for Staff Members only.
14. Sexually oriented, gore and any other type of avatars/signatures that are considered to be inappropriate must be avoided.
15. Do not post on the Ban Appeals/Requests/Admin Complaints unless you have something to say that will help us sort the issue.
16. Posting on an inactive post is not allowed. Posts are considered inactive if no one had posted a reply in the past 7 days. If you wish to revive a post, create a new post with the [Revived] tag in the title. Don't bother unless you have something important to say.
17. No advertising without permission. Feel free to post videos from your Youtube channel in the 'videos' section.
Other than these rules, I hope you use your common sense and avoid things that staff members may disapprove of, try and make these forums your own, we moderate them for you to use
in your own way, we only have a few set rules so other than that go wild and have fun in our community.
