2. If you purposely post in the incorrect section of the forum, you will be given a warning.
And how do we know they do it on purpose?"
For example posting a ban appeal on unrelated discussion, or on the moderator application area.
Well ive seen people do that by accident but i dont know if anyone has ever done that on purpose. Even if they did, u will never know. The human mind is too complex to be understood like that. "Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
6. False reports will result in a warning.
I do not understand what you mean by this."
If you falsely report someone for breaking the rules
That's kinda an obvious rule and im pretty sure its already in effect."Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
7. Slander will not be tolerated.
I also do not understand this."
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=SlanderFirst off, lmao for googling it for me. Second, isnt slander kinda like the above rule (#6) except that its more malicious intent?"Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
8. Don't post anything in capital letters alone.
BUT WHAT IF I WANT TO RAGE?"
No.
No capital letters should not be an enforced rule. occasionally its ok, as long as ur not spamming. In game, we use capital letters all the time:p ... its just those who spam with it are those that are warned. lol btw mr, how often do u rage? u seem like a mellow guy "Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
2. Do not advertise anything stupid and irrelevant to the forum.
An example would be advertising Viagra.
I don't see how this is a problem, advertising another server, is."
"stupid and irrelevant"
Actually, optical and relkeb allow this as of now. Just a few days ago, i was advertising for mineimg.com, a photo uploading site that im a staff member of. I wanted to get out the word that we we are having a contest and relkeb said its fine that i advertise as long as I, like mr said, dont advertise another server."Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
4. There is to be absolutely no trolling or disruptive behavior (Even outside the forums, including ingame)
Even relkeb trolls."
Yes
This is a rule that would destroy personality on this server. We express ourselves thru our awesomesauce trolls, both in game and out. Too much trolling/disruptive behavior is the only time when it becomes an issue for us, though. "Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
6. If you believe that you have a severe mental disability/implication that can affect your communication negatively with other members, then do not join us.
I'm dyslexic, so I can't join now? Trust me, this is severe."
That will be up to you to judge
wrong and unfair in my opinion. u cannot judge people like that. u even said a few rules down from this one, that u cant be rude about this topic. This is a topic I would not support."Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
7. Abuse of authority will not be tolerated by the Officers.
I do not understand this."
I meant moderators, or anyone who holds any type of authority.
Yes, this is already established i believe. but as far as i know no one has broken THAT rule yet. It's something that is established when the OPs first go on trial and train to learn about how to OP (right?) "Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
1. No posting of ANY child pornography. You will be permanently banned, and possibly reported to your local authorities
What about adult pornography, did you put that in there because you hate child pornography and don't want the adult stuff?"
If you read Level 2, Rule 3... You wouldn't be asking...
I think this is an obvious rule on any legit forums site (as well as games). We actually do have a rule on that i think. Like specifically written for that."Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
2. Eight warnings in one month results in a permanent ban.
No."
It's a suggestion, Doesn't have to apply.
In theory, yes this works. But again its another established rule and we have very capable well prepared OPs, mods and admins that know when a person is to be banned. I think we have sorta a "2 or 3 strikes" rule."Quote from: tabooti on Today at 04:57:30 am
3. Please do not exploit a loophole for any of these rules, as you will be permanently banned.
I do not understand what a loophole is."
http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Loophole lol i think he meant he needed an example . But ya we make clear loopholes arent tolerable. One of our ban rules somewhere (i cant remember exactly where; perhaps the ban appeal rules thread) states that u cant make another account to bypass ur ban. If you are found out, u will be ip banned. So technically we have a "no loophole" system in place, not sure how developed it is but again, its one of those "obvious" rules.Overall, i think u have good ideas as a general layout and i support ur organization. Its just about half of those rules are already something we have established. Some other rules i cannot agree with because they are unjust or unfair to the player and despite our rules, we want to give the player a fun time on the server. Just remember that rules are good but people need to have some fun, as long as it doesnt annoy or disrupt anybody negatively.
