Tythus 1307 Share Posted October 14, 2011 1. Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users are asked to read the forum descriptions before posting. Users consistently posting to the wrong forum may be given a warning. 2. Members should post in a way that is respectful of other users. Flaming or abusing users in any way will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning. 3. Members are asked to not act as “back seat moderators”. If members note an issue which contravenes something in this policy document they are welcome to bring it to the attention of a member of the Moderator Team. Please use the “post report” feature to report posts. Do not respond to such topics yourself. Members who constantly “act” as moderators may be warned. 4. Members should remember this board is aimed at a general audience. Posting pornographic or generally offensive text, images, links, etc. will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning. 5. Members are asked to respect the copyright of other users, sites, media, etc. Users linking to or asking for information on warez, crackz, etc. or re-printing material without permission will receive a warning and their post will be removed. 6. Members are asked only to post in English, as this is an English speaking community. 7. Members should respect the bandwidth of other users and sites. The use of inline () image tags pointing to data stored on third party systems for which the user has not received permission to link to may be removed. 8. Members should post in a way which is consistent with "normal writing". That is users should not post excessive numbers of emoticons, large, small or coloured text, etc. Similarly users should not SHOUT or use excessive punctuation (e.g. ! and ?) in topic titles or posts. Users consistently abusing this will be warned. 9. Multiple posting without any posts done by another party is not allowed any doing so will receive a warning to avoid this you can edit posts. 10. Any advertising will receive a warning unless it is to do with the thread in question. 11. No abusing of the 'Report Post' feature, if abused it will be taken as a breach of the Flaming/Abusing rule. NOTE: Some sub-forums may have rules that differ from the general rules stated above if so they take priority. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archmage 2 Share Posted October 14, 2011 So is that why there is an unfilled warn bar thing under my pic now or am I doing something wrong? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
argonian 14254 Share Posted October 14, 2011 There should be an option to disable the warn bar from view. It takes up a lot of space when you have a lot of posts in a topic. Imagine a guild leader on his guild thread *shudders* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tythus 1307 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 you should only be able to see your own warn bar >_> white is good all red means your banned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
｡◕‿‿◕｡ Hawk Whitestorm 715 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Oh I see it now. Is that new? Never noticed it before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tythus 1307 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 Oh I see it now. Is that new? Never noticed it before. Admins/GM's/FM's could always see it but if we gave you a warn you wouldn't be able to see why on the warn system so this is just a way to make it easier for you to know why you have been warned for x,y,z.

Lawrence Berell 226 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Any special rules on what is acceptable signature link wise? I heard linking Villain apps is acceptable- if it isn't I'll let all those who do it know. Also, for those ho struggle to understand what the rules mean, here is the baseline: 1. Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users are asked to read the forum descriptions before posting. Users consistently posting to the wrong forum may be given a warning. If you make a post in say, Guilds, about how you need materials, even if it is for your guild, then it'll be moved to Trade. If you do it excessively, and without reason (The above example is a valid reason- more than once though and a board warning will be issued) then board warnings will be issued. 2. Members should post in a way that is respectful of other users. Flaming or abusing users in any way will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning. If you personally attack another member in a way that makes them look bad, like saying they do stuff they don't, or calling their mother "faggots" etc, then action in the form of a board warning will take place. 3. Members are asked to not act as “back seat moderators”. If members note an issue which contravenes something in this policy document they are welcome to bring it to the attention of a member of the Moderator Team. Please use the “post report” feature to report posts. Do not respond to such topics yourself. Members who constantly “act” as moderators may be warned. Don't do my job for me >:) 4. Members should remember this board is aimed at a general audience. Posting pornographic or generally offensive text, images, links, etc. will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning. Age limited material, ie pornography, isn't tolarated in links or images. I think a temp' ban would suffice for this; but we have children aged 8, 9 etc who are at a very influenced age. 5. Members are asked to respect the copyright of other users, sites, media, etc. Users linking to or asking for information on warez, crackz, etc. or re-printing material without permission will receive a warning and their post will be removed. If you redistribute games, movies or other media, we'll remove the links, and give you a board warning. 6. Members are asked only to post in English, as this is an English speaking community. If I have to explain this, then the Human race has no hope. It is okay if you are quoting a famous person, but a translation must be given. 7. Members should respect the bandwidth of other users and sites. The use of inline () image tags pointing to data stored on third party systems for which the user has not received permission to link to may be removed. To be honest, I don't understand this one. :S 8. Members should post in a way which is consistent with "normal writing". That is users should not post excessive numbers of emoticons, large, small or coloured text, etc. Similarly users should not SHOUT or use excessive punctuation (e.g. ! and ?) in topic titles or posts. Users consistently abusing this will be warned. :S >:) :( :) :P :3 etc. THIS ISN'T TOLARATED!?! 9. Multiple posting without any posts done by another party is not allowed any doing so will receive a warning to avoid this you can edit posts. No double posting, just edit posts to save clutter and stuff. 10. Any advertising will receive a warning unless it is to do with the thread in question. So no "But Jaffa Cakes At Discount Prices From FarmFoods". If you are advertising ingame stuff, then do it on either create your own thread for it, or find a message board ingame. If you are offering services, then it is okay, I suppose, to offer it on the other person's thread. Board Warning- Definition A Board Warning is an action that our lovely moderation team can give you if you misbehave. It is our version of a spank- I think it is 10 for a ban. They can be removed or appealed if you can prove it shouldn't of been given in the first place. *pants hard* Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
