REPORTING BAD BEHAVIOR
If you see someone misbehaving, find a post that shows a good example of it and click the "Report Post" button on the bottom of the post. Enter a brief description of what you're reporting.
DO NOT use PMs, the "Contact Us" email link, or any other method. Always report the post, because the mods' software keeps track of that.
The Seven Deadly Sins (Instantly Bannable Offenses)
-Hate Speech or other discriminatory language (Unless IC)
-Advocacy of conspiracy theories (Unless IC)
-Threatening to commit real-life harm on another member
-Use of sockpuppets
-Trolling
-Plagarism
-Repeatedly ignoring mod decisions or breaking Forum Rules
General Forum Rules
-Be civil. There's no better way to explain this rule, I don't want to see any insults, flamebaiting, or intentional agitation of others on this forum. In addition, moderators exist for a reason, and, if someone is being uncivil, the proper response is to report them, not to return the favor. Incivility as a response to someone else being rude is not an acceptable excuse, and will carry the same punishment as normal incivility.
-The rule of a game mod is law. Unless the game mod himself is breaking a rule in his actions, players are to accept with his decisions. If you disagree with them, complain to the mod, or, failing that, just refuse to play in any of his games in the future.
-All posters are equal. Just because you are a longtime member, you don't receive any special treatment. The one exception to this are extremely new members-if someone deliberately and repeatedly breaks the rules immediately after signing up, I will take it as a sign that they have no intention of following forum rules and act accordingly.
-Don't revive old games after they have died. If a game has not been posted in for a week or so with no explanation, you can assume that the game is dead. Leave the dead to rest in peace.
-Refrain from posting large images repeatedly unless needed. This forum only has so much bandwith
