Nameless Tavern Rules - Revised 8.5.04

Postby vonkaar » Thu Aug 05, 2004 4:50 pm

These rules apply to ALL forums besides the Anything for Anyone forum.

Any post that is added after the date and time of these rules will mean that you agree to the these new rules.

I hope everyone understand why these rules are being added. Let's continue having fun on the board and stop the unnecessary flames.

Remember - You are a guest here, please act like one.

I - The Play Nice Rule.
    * Don't be a jerk
    * Do not change the focus of an otherwise innocent thread to personal squabbling. Insults, grudges and bad attitudes are a part of any message board - however, we shouldn't have to worry about the ruining of a thread simply because two members can't keep their grudges out of the thread.
    * Do not start any blatant, rant-provoking jabs unless the thread already exists in Rants and Flames.
    * Do not use ethnic or racial slurs.
    * Be respectful of other people. Everyone is different, embrace diversity!
    * Adult Material is forbidden. This is loosely defined as pornography, nudity, excrement, symbols of hatred and anything else that could possibly give a movie an R-rating.
II - The Catch-All Rule.
    * Don't be a juvenile dickwad
III - The PG-13 Rule.
    * Any post that contains anything that could potentially be seen as adult material (as defined above) is forbidden. This might be the quickest way to receive a permanent ban.
IV - The Avatars and Signatures Rule.
    * Signatures can accept a maximum of 600 characters. This includes any BBCode or HTML tags.
    * No adult-material.
    * Signature images cannot exceed 300x400 in size.
    * Signature images cannot exceed 200k in file size.
    * Administrators can disable signatures and/or avatars on a per user basis. Repeatedly breaking the rules will result in this type of action.
    * Remote avatars cannot be larger than 150x150 pixels and/or 200k in size. Locally hosted avatars might slightly cross this limit - if approved by administration.
V - The Old Thread-Bump Rule.
    * Do not resurrect old threads, also known as 'bumping'.
    * Don't 'bump' trade posts because yours fell off page 1.
    * Don't bump!
VI - The Moderator Action Discussion Rule.
    * Any questions regarding moderator actions should be placed in the 'Board Feedback' forum. Any thread regarding the actions of the administration that is started in any other forum will be ignored.
    * If you start a thread in an inappropriate forum, PM a mod and ask them to move it. This will do wonders in getting answers on your moderation questions.
VII - The Member Abuse Rule.
    * Do not 'hound' members. This means posting negative comments about a member in seemingly every post they make. This also falls in the first rule but is listed here for emphasis.
VIII - The Clever HTML Rule.
    * Members are forbidden from using any type of code that is designed to disrupt any aspect of the forum.
IX - The Out-of-Game Trading Rule.
    * The trading forums are for in-game trading only. No exceptions.
X - The Judgment Call Rule.
    * These rules are bound to have all sorts of exploitable loopholes. The Administration reserves the right to use their best judgment in these matters. If a member of the administration staff feels that any item on the board including, but not restricted to, posts, threads, members, avatars, signatures or any other member action violates any rule (even if the violation is obscure) or merely creates a bad vibe, they will have the freedom to make any necessary changes to the violating object.
