The rules on this forum are simple. Please abide by them and we will all be happy!
1. If you are a poser, you will be found out and be booted so let us know that you are a human. We will all be fine with a curious human more than we are with a poser.
2. No cussing, please keep our forums nice. Or I will resort to booting the offender and making funny words out of cuss words. If it happens you will know what I mean.
3. Be nice to one another, no fighting, yada yada yada. If this happens it will be dealt with immediately. If you see this happening, please inform the administrator ASAP!!! I will not boot you for a first time offense, but if it becomes a habit, out you go. Sorry.
4. This is not a roleplay site, so let's not make it one. You will be found and booted.
5. Abbreviations isn't as bad as it used to be but I'm still going to address it. I know it is easier to use abbreviations such as "u" or "r", but we are in a forum. Not a chat. In the chat it is alright, now I don't mind if it happens a couple of times but please make an attempt.
6. Punctuation isn't a real biggy but i'll just give a shoutout, please try to use commas, quotation marks, periods, exclamation marks, and question marks.
7. This isn't bad if it happens a couple of times, but if every other word is mispelled it gets very hard to read. I know many of us often overlook this even I do also but try your best. I know words such as beautiful and weird are tricky to spell. But as I've said before, make an attempt. You will be treated under the 3 strike rule if you speak text talk on this forum. Google Chrome has an option to spell check, if you have GC use it!
8. Obviously what I'm doing in this post but divide your posts into paragraphs. If they are that long then it makes it much much easier to read and more people will read it. It gives the mind a break and some organization.
9. Spamming is annoying and I hate it, as does everyone else. This includes the chat also. Spamming is when somebody says something over and over again or continuously posts.
10. DO NOT USE THE FORUMS FOR CHAT! We have a chat, use it. Make your posts more than two or three words, otherwise as I said before. It clogs up the forums.
11. There have been some signatures which are VERY long. Ones that take up around 10 seconds of scrolling. They are very annoying and I just want to read the rest of the topic, not scroll down a giant poem or picture. Please keep your signatures within 3-5 lines and keep it simple and to the point. Pictures please keep to no bigger than 500x500 pixels or I will disable signatures.
12. Moderators keep this site in order. Do what they tell you because they have authority, not because they feel like bossing you around. The moderators are smart and know what they are doing. But also, moderators when you see a topic which is useless please delete it immediately. Those forums add up!
13. Under no cirsemenstances are you to threaten anyone, no matter how deserved it may be. If there is a problem you should tell a moderator immediately.
14. If you make some outrageous claims be prepared to back yourself up, being reasonably skeptical is encouraged here.
15. Vigilante justice is NOT okay and will dealt with accordingly, if you have a problem with something on the forums you are to bring it up with a moderator or the admin.
I believe in the 3 strike policy as follows:
1 Strike: ONLY WARNING
2 Strikes: ONE MONTH SUSPENSION
3 Strikes: BAN

IF YOU ARE BANNED
Being banned is not something to take lightly and will nine times out of ten be permanet, but if you feel that you have been unjustly banned you may send an email to emeraldaura423@gmail.com with your plea to be reinstated and I along with the other Moderators will re-evaluate your ban.
