Global Forum Rules [Updated 21/08/21]

Post by MrStonedOne » #4034

Global Forum Rules:

When in doubt about any of these rules, ask the mods.
  1. No spam. (Contentless posts, repeated posts, off topic posts)
    • IE: when you post: think: "what will this post bring to the conversation".
    • Posts only designed to antagonize or otherwise escalate the situation are generally considered spam. Try to be civil about your grievances
  2. Always use [ nsfw ] tags for anything that is remotely NSFW. (When in doubt, just do it anyways.)
  3. No pornography (Per the datacenter's AUP)
  4. NSFW content is allowed only in certain subforums.
    • Adult(ish) Images that don't quite constitute porn AND contribute something to the discussion are allowed provided they are also allowed by that subforum and must be clearly marked as such with NSFW tags
  5. Do not post anything that is illegal to upload in your area or is illegal to host in San Jose, California, USA.
  6. We are here to have fun, if you are not having fun, maybe it would be best for you to take a break
    • If you consistently cause drama, we may ask (read: ban) that you take a break, and may also require that you abandon your old identity should we allow you to come back.
  7. Please be respectful of other users. You can disagree with someone without being a hostile douchebag.
  8. Abuse of any site function with the goal of disrupting the site or others' access to or enjoyment of will not be tolerated.
  9. Shitposts go in the hut.
  10. There is a 2 week minimum wait after getting your username changed before you may request it be changed again.
  11. Bigotry is not allowed. Intentionally seeking to demean others due to their actual or perceived race, sex, gender, disability, orientation or the like is not tolerated.
    • It is not our goal to create or enforce a list of banned words and instead our goal to eject bigotry from the community. Enforcement will be less PC based and more common sense based with that goal in mind.
  12. Using Christmas themed avatars before the friday following thanksgiving may result in you being laughed at, mocked, ridiculed, and/or banned.
  13. No talking about upcoming headmin elections until the main headmin election thread has been created.

Edited the parts about nsfw to refer to the new nsfw tag instead of the old spoiler tag

swapped the christmas rule (previously rule 11) and the bigotry rule (previously rule 12) for consistency
