Do not start threads or make posts to bash, slander, mock or otherwise demonstrate a lack of respect for other members, the staff members, other websites or other message boards. We don't really care that someone used the smiley when you posted at another board. Posting about it here will get you nothing but more of those smileys.
- Feel free to PM and get to know your mods & admins. You may PM them at any time if you have a problem, a comment or even a suggestion but please do not start threads to question their judgment, mock them, bash them, suggest things, etc. Contrary to popular belief, they are here to help. I promise you, we won't bite either!
- All opinions should be respected and expressed maturely, without name calling, etc.
- Any member found to be participating in spamming the message board with silly posts aimed at keeping a particular thread going, will be warned and/or banned from this forum. (Excluding any sanctioned game threads that are in the general forum.)
- Please do not jump on new members. Everyone here was a newbie at some point. Message board bullying will NOT be tolerated here. NO exceptions!
- Do not discriminate against someone's age, background, nationality, sexuality, weight, religious beliefs, etc.
- Please do not post messages with ALL CAPS, wRiTeN LiKe ThIs!!!!!1111 or post in any other way which would make it difficult for other members or the staff to understand you. Doing this will either give people headaches or cause you to never be taken seriously. In most cases, both. Also text talk in a great amount will not be used. It's annoying, want to talk in text use your cell phone, not a message board.
- Please do not register more then once. If you register and do not receive your info e-mail, then contact one of the mods or admins. If a person is found to be registered more then once, then only the active username will remain.
- Do not post pornographic, sexually explicit or otherwise offensive photos or videos of any kind in posts, siggies, etc. We may have younger fans that visit the forum and they don't need to see that sort of thing.
- When posting spoilers of any kind (i.e. - Smackdown, movies, big brother, etc.) please post a spoiler warning in the subject line of the thread. Some people do not want to know what is going to happen ahead of time.
- Be aware of images in sigs, avatars & such. Obviously huge pictures suck, but it also sucks when someone has about 499 pictures in their sig. Even though most people have cable or DSL, some don't & it doesn't help the page loading process if you have 28 pictures of your pet fish, Fluffy, scrolling in every post.
Two graphics (or three if they're small and do not disrupt the page) in the sig space is usually the norm. Avatars should be no bigger then 100x100 pixels.
If a member is found to have offensive sigs, overly large sigs, more then the number of allowed sigs and/or an avatar larger then 100x100 pixels, they may be asked to remove or resize them. If the member refuses to remove or resize them when asked, a staff member will remove them permanently and no graphics for that member will be permitted until a staff member approves them.
If you are banned and wish to appeal the decision, please do so via e-mail. DO NOT have your friends rally for you by creating threads, etc. Once you are banned, and have exhausted your appealm the decision will be FINAL
Once you're banned, you're banned and if you find a way to sneak back on without permission, you'll be immediately banned again. If you are doing that though, maybe you need something better to do during your days. (Stamp collecting maybe?)
Please Keep in Mind that any superstar posting is in Character, and May ,at any given time, bend ( or downright Break) the above rules in the interest of drawing heat
- Keep all arguing in the trash talk area
- - Please post threads in the proper forums.
Any violation of the above rules will result in the offender being permanently banned from the forum. Usually you'll get a friendly reminder of the forum rules or a warning from a mod or an admin and then you're gone. However, it *is* possible to be banned suddenly and without warning as we see fit.
Again, if you think you were banned unjustly and wish to attempt to appeal our decision, then contact one of the admins/mods listed below via e-mail. Please note that doing so will not always result in said member being unbanned.
