The site is getting larger and we need to set some rules down here. This is not sponsored by Chris but this just seems like the proper thing to do.

* Ignoring admin warnings, testing patience/boundaries and/or heckling.

* Racism which includes pictures and comments

* Excessive flaming (heated discussion can be cool, personal attacks are not)

* Excessive off topic posting unless in off topic threads.

* Troublemaking. Starting problems for the sake of stirring up waves will get you removed.

* Abuse to staff will not be tolerated under any circumstances. Admins are volunteer their free time. They didn't volunteer to take your abuse.

* Flaming people because they like a particular game.

* Advertising

* Spamming the forum with pages of posts.

* Petitions or pleas to unban a banned player

* Swearing and use of unsuitable language. Be civil (A little is allowed)

* If you're unsure about something, you probably shouldn't post it. You're always welcome to ask a mod before posting if you're unsure.

I request that Chris sticky this so no one gets confused or in trouble. Thank you.

We seem to be getting by just fine without rules so far... everyone here seems happy and civilised don't you think?  D=

Besides, you spelt etiquette wrong, not very professional looking rules...  NSFW material without extreme warning as well is a pretty important rule most places have that you missed.  I think it's more up to Chris what rules he wants to put up, and when.

We are not looking for spell checkers and that is not what this is about

I think he is doing us good by stating possible rules
Have you done anything like it? No, so you have nothing to complain about

That's a good idea, but I'm inclined to aggree with JezMM. The best thing to do would be to just use common sense when posting. A list like that may be more necessary when the forum has more traffic...

Thanks guys. I don't think we need something like this yet though. Everyone here so far has seen the internet before. Smiley
