Fan Club Rules.

[Belias]

Specific Fan Club Rules.

* All fan clubs must be made and submitted as you would any other post however in the fan clubs forums it will be viewed by a mod before it is either allowed or rejected.


* Stay on topic.


* Before making a fan club do a search and make sure that one doesn't already exist.


* If a fan club owner has been inactive for 3 months you may take over ownership of an FC. Please make a new FC with the same version number as the current inactive FC but add NEW to the title.


* If a fan club owner is inactive in an FC but active on BA and you want to take over the FC, seek their permission via vm or pm first.


* NO ANTI FC WILL BE APPROVED.


* If you go over 1000 posts, be warned that posts after 1000 will be deleted.


* FC owners cannot make specific rules that must be followed, you are not mods. If there are problems in your FC click the report post button and let the mods handle it.


* We do allow country FC's but these are basically so that people from the same country can socialise and get to know each other and arrange possible meetings in their community. We do not allow FC's for specific towns/states etc please stick to the country FC's.


* If you are caught bashing members in another language in your country FC you will be banned.


* If you do not like a pairing DO NOT post in that pairing FC. If you read the fan club and want to discuss something that was said, please sort it out via PM or elsewhere, do NOT go into that fan club and start a war.


* You can discuss other pairings but when others discuss your pairing negatively and you don't like it don’t kick up a fuss.


* Neg reps to rival pairing FC posts won't be tolerated. I consider this being in an FC of a pairing you don't like therefore breaking a rule.

To ensure that the fan clubs run smoothly, we ask you to be aware of the following, especially the blue portion, which is new:

*Anyone who wants to join a fan club may do so by posting in that club and requesting membership.

New fan club versions: Since BA's database was reset, it was necessary for certain clubs to start over.


Returning owners may use the same version numbers they had in the previous version of BA. This is entirely at the discretion of each returning owner.

Since the reset of BA’s database, some fan clubs have different owners from before. If a club’s current owner and the previous owner are both interested in owning the fan club, they should decide between themselves who will be the club’s owner (or co-owners) before submitting the next version for approval. If an agreement cannot be reached, please allow moderators to mediate between all parties.


Owners and co-owners: Fan clubs should have active, involved owners.

Owners may not make their own rules for members to follow. They may, however, remind members to follow BA’s rules.

Responsibilities of the owner: The owner’s job is to maintain the membership list and guide the discussion. When a fan club reaches 1000 posts, the owner should submit a new version and ask a mod to close the old one. Please do NOT start a fan club if you know that you will be unable to take care of it for any reason.

Responsibilities of the co-owner: Co-owners should be active and involved in their fan clubs. If the owner becomes inactive, the co-owners should try to contact the owner. If the owner does not respond within a reasonable amount of time, then co-owners may ask mods to update the membership list.

No one may serve as owner of more than five fan clubs anywhere on Bleach Asylum. This is to ensure that owners are able to take care of every club they own. There is no limit to how many clubs a member may be co-owner of.

Owners may choose co-owners at their discretion. There is no limit to how many co-owners a club may have.


Acceptable discussion: BA strives to be a respectful, positive community that encourages thoughtful discussion.


Post with courtesy. Rude or insulting posts may be edited or deleted at the moderators’ discretion.

Stay on topic. Pairing fan clubs should not discuss other pairings.

No bashing of any sort is allowed. This includes bashing other characters, pairings, and fans.

Single-character fan clubs should not ship the character with anyone.
