Post OT Rules and Guidelines... Edited 3/14/05

The following will help you to understand what kind of threads get locked/deleted and what kind of posts get removed.

What gets my thread locked/deleted or my posts removed?

Posting a topic that has already been covered - Search before you start!

No more than one "Word Game" at a time. They're quite pointless and there's no need to have more than one of them going at once. If you start one while another is ongoing it will be locked/removed. Each word game will only be allowed 1 week before it's locked and another one started.

NO POST WHORING THREADS! GET A PREMIUM MEMBERSHIP AND JOIN THE ONE IN THERE

Threads designed to attack/flame other members on the site. Everybody should already know the boundries with regards to this.

Anything pornographic such as nudity or links to vids/sites that are pornographic including lude or sexually explicit language. Things like this can only be posted in "Anything Goes" in the Premium section. This of course does require a Premium Membership .


Threads using racist or offensive topics and language. Please respect other members on the site by refraining from this at all times.

Hope this helps clear up a few things for all of you. Of course if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to send me or one of the other mods/admins a PM.

--

Avatars and Signatures

There has been some complaints as to certain avatars and sigs showing a bit too much "skin". Remember there are many here who either view these on family computers, at work, or at school, and certain images may make it look like the person is on some type of porn site.

It's one thing to show a few racy pics in a thread where you can use the "boobies" icon to warn people of such content. But when it's displayed every time someone posts because of their avatar or sig, it is impossible to avoid.

Some of you may notice your avatar or sig being removed or changed. Don't take offense to this, as it is not personal. We are merely trying to keep the site a little cleaner.

As per the word of NeonImpact, anybody who posts racist remarks is getting permabanned.

Moderators/Super Moderators and Admins have the right to lock, delete or edit what they feel is necessary.

Off Topic Thread TITLE rules. *everyone read*

A. The title of your post should NOT list anything that could be offensive or not work safe.

B. If something IN your thread is not work safe then you MUST have NWS in your thread title.

So for example, if you went out and had sex with 3 different girls that weekend, do NOT put "man i had sex/f*cked 3 different chicks this weekend". But rather "had a busy love life this weekend NWS".

There should NEVER be a swear word in the title of your thread. Same goes for sexual topics. Words like "dildo" and "butt plug" etc, should also NOT be in the thread title. The word "sex" would be ok, as long as it is not use as something dirty or obscene.

^ I think yours should be fine. It's using "hell" to refer to the place.

yeah hell refers to a place. nothing wrong with it.


as for what will be done. moderators will either edit the title, or they will delete the thread. if someone continues to do this even though the rules have been explained to them, a temp ban will be issued.

Can we use asterisks to replace profanity in topics? Like "I f*cking hate my job?"

What about "I effing hate my job?"

How long is a temp ban?

If you're banned can you still browse the site and just can't post?

no asterisks please. really, try to keep any swearing out of the thread title. effing would be in some grey area and could be pushing it...


temp ban can be as long as we choose. if you're banned you can't see anything.
