These rules are to be followed at all times, breaking these rules may result in a warning or a ban. You will only get 2 warnings for offences before you are banned, it is up to staff wether or not user actions equal a warning or ban depending on the particular offence. These rules will and can be updated at any time.

THESE RULES APPLY TO VISITOR MESSAGES ALSO

Instant Ban

Things that we will instantly ban you for (we can take a joke but if it is obviously not a joke*):

Racist Comments/Flaming
Homophobic Comments/Flaming
Advertising porn or providing links to porn sites
Advertising drugs/penis enlargement/cheap degrees and all similar

*Racist and Homphobic jokes are not encouraged.

Other Forum Rules

1. Just use common sense and be nice to each other.

2. No flame wars/flaming. Mod bashing is also considered flaming.

3. We are not going to restrict swearing but please use it sparingly if at all. Swearing can be used but if it is for flaming or in excess it will be deleted.

4. No posting of real life porn/porn links.

5. Try not to double post.

6. Threads close at 1000 posts. Mods will lock a thread that reaches this limit and you may start a new thread (v2 or whatever).

7. Be sensible about sigs and avs. The current allowed sig dimensions for regular users is roughly 550px x 600px this includes text and images. Do not use giant gifs etc to keep load times down. Do not use one giant picture that takes up this entire space.

8. Keep threads on topic or posts will be deleted.

9. Try to not post if all you have to say is lol, we aren't gonna come down uber hard on spam but we do have server limits. Just be sensible about spam and keep on topic. Let's define what we consider spam so there are no misunderstandings.
Spam is not posting a lot, posting a lot is welcome if it is on topic and not an obvious attempt at raising post count. Posting off topic and obvious attempts at trying to raise post count are spam.

10. No duplicate accounts.

11. No advertising threads unless previously given the ok by spacecat.

12. Avoid harsh character bashing, it offends people and can easily lead to flame wars. If you harshly character bash we may edit your post or delete it.

13. When using tags please use sensible words. It is a search function not a spam/joke function :p

14. If you post fan art, fan fic or art of any kind please credit the artist. If we have to warn you for this more than once you may be banned.

15. Please do not post hardcore yaoi/yuri/hentai materials outside of yaoi/yuri fc's. Hardcore includes: sex pics, blowjob pics, nude pics and so on. Use common sense and you can figure it out. We get complaints all the time about this kind of thing so please avoid it.

16. Don't encourage trolls, if you rep, reply to or encourage trolls in any way you may be treated similar to the troll.

17. If you don't like something a mod does do not start a flame war with them, pm them or an admin to sort it out.

Bump, because it's never been bumped and I know for a fact a lot of people, some who have been here for a long time, have never seen this. Take note the 1st and most important rule.
