    The Rules! Must Read Empty The Rules! Must Read

    Post  xModding Wed Jul 07, 2010 1:16 am

    Posting


    . Refrain from spam/one-liner replies, such as "thx, ..., *emotion*, lol" etc... Try to extend your post so it is meaningful.

    . SEARCH!! - We encourage you to use the search function before you go about asking a question. Chances are, your question may have already been answered, and can lessen the time it takes to wait for a response if you were to create your own.

    . Bumping - Pay attention to the date of the last post. Bumping old topics (around 2+ weeks from last post) is not allowed, but only if you have an informative addition to the topic, or it is a tutorial you would like to respond to.

    . Flame - We try to keep this board as civil as possible. One thing we strongly do not tolerate is the use of insults towards other members. You can express your opinion civilly, no need to be harsh about it. If things start heating up, use the report function (explained in guide as well). Failing to do so and deciding to take matter into your own hands can result in an infraction/warning for yourself as well. So be careful.

    . Make your posts legible - It takes less effort to type complete sentences. We want to understand you. (s0 3v3n th0ugh m0st p30pL3 c4n r34d d1z, n0 0n3 3nj0yz 1t.) Also, do not post in all CAPS. People take CAPS as a form of screaming. You can't interpret over 8% of communication over the internet, so its best you keep the caps lock off.

    . Do not bypass word censor - It is implanted for a reason. If you want to swear, do it somewhere else. You have your whole life to, but no one wants to read a post with 80% swear words. It's time to grow up some on this board, you can get by.

    . This is an English speaking forum, we only speak ENGLISH here.

    h. We encourage everyone to help out members here. If you don't have anything nice to say to them, don't say anything at all. Be polite at all times. Using the "Thanks" button as a symbol of posts you find informative/helpful to you. Any abuse, (such as creating another account and thanking your own posts), will result in an infraction and ban from the "Thanks" system. You may also say "Thanks," but do not beg people to give you Thanks, Its disrespectful.

    . Do not post saying
    "Not allowed"
    "No warez in public"
    "No flaming"
    "No bumping"
    "Do not bump threads"
    "Way to bump this old thread"
    "etc..."
    Just report the post


    . No posts or threads drug related.


    Threads


    . Keep your thread titles simple - Thread titles like "H3LPZ PLZZZZ," T4K3 A L@@K," are not permitted and will be closed until you make another with complete grammar. It makes it harder for people to understand you if you can not communicate properly.

    . Do not make multiple threads of the same content - If you have a question to ask: Sit. Tight. Making more threads will result in them getting removed, and if you continue to spam, we will make necessary actions.

    . Threads must not contain any closely or directly related to these topics:

    •Host Booting/Flooding (Discussion & Program)
    •Warez (i.e. requesting for a game download; saying you have a game download and for users to PM you)
    •Advertisements/Referrals
    •Porn/Explicit Content
    •Suspension/Banning Of A Member (Discussing is only between the member and staff)
    •Username/Passwords/IP/Credit Cards
    •Ridiculous Content
    •Premium Content (Non-Premium Members)
    •Trading Accounts/Microsoft Points
    •Modio - We do not offer support or help for this program
    •PE - We do not offer support or help for this program

    Any threads that revolve around those type of topics are to be reported immediately.

    . Make sure you post in the correct section - When asking for help, make sure you do it in the help/support section of that forum. If a topic is in the wrong section, or you feel it is, just report the post. Don't mini-mod and yell at the person for doing so.



    Avatars & Signatures


    . Avatars must not be any bigger than 125x125 (25kb, whichever is smaller), and Signature images must be no larger than 500w X 200h. 1 signature image being 500w X 200h + up to 3 user bars is allowed; anything more than that will be subject to infraction.

    . Avatars & Signature must not contain:

    •Excessive/Offensive Content
    •Advertisements/Referral (Images & Links)
    •Links to other sites (Forums/Blogs/etc...)
    •Languages other than English
    •Of Sexual Origin / Contains sexual content (Implied by staff)


    . When you get an infraction, you will always receive a PM. If you feel injustice, you may discuss IN A CIVIL MANNER. We are humans, and are not perfect, but will not tolerate any sour attitude if you fail to follow rules.

    . The infractions system is based on points, each infraction varies in points (warnings contain no points):


    . When you are banned, you are not allowed to return under a new username unless you have a legit reason. Such action could result in an IP ban.

    . Infractions, Warnings, Suspensions, and Ban's are decided depending on how the situation is. Avoiding such is obvious, and takes common sense and a little knowledge of what not to do on the board, but just in case:

    •Arguing With A Member - If you have a problem with a member, report the issue and let a staff member step in and settle the situation. Yelling back will get you no where.
    •Arguing With A Staff Member - May result in a higher offense. If a staff member says the final words, those words are final. If there is a definite problem see the Administrators about the issue with the current staff member, but do not flame or insult the staff members directly. (Its the least you could do)
    •Spamming - Usually, we will just remove spam and move on. If it becomes an issue, we will inform you with a warning/infraction. PM Spamming is an automatic ban. We do not tolerate people giving members a hard time with their spam.
    •Advertisement - May result in an infraction. If only posted once, a small warning and a removal of the link/topic may be given. If you wish to affiliate, contact AzzidReign.

    •Requesting/Posting Illegal Content/Obscene - Posting illegal/obscene content will result in an infraction. Illegal content can put the board in trouble, and we do not want to be in that situation.
    •Racism/Excessive Swearing - Racism wont be tolerated, period. Even though we have the word filter system, we still don't tolerate people who continue to flood their post with ridiculous amounts if swearing. When you do that, your giving an image about yourself but also about how people are on the board, and if thats the way you want to act then this isnt the place for you.



    Awards Rules
    These rules are put here in the case we do bring back the awards system.

    •Only ONE request per day.
    •You can request for another user to be nominated. Refer to the first rule, you only get 1 request and this counts for the one. So, you can either request an award for yourself OR someone else, but not both in one day.
    •Read all the descriptions. If you do not fall within the description requirements then you will be infracted. Please view the infraction details below.
    •Each award can only be requested once every 2 months.
    •Infractions will be given out to broken rules. Infraction points = 6 points never expiring (please refer to the infractions section for more details).
    •These rules are entitled to change at any given time and by requesting an award, you are agreeing to these rules.

    Trading & Notices


    a. As stated above, we do not allow topics relating to trading accounts/microsoft points. However, any transactions done in the BST section, or by PM;The Staff is no way responsible of what goes on between you and the other member(s) far as B/S/T. We try to sort out the obvious scammers, but it is no our fault or our problem if you have been scammed (As I said, do it at your own risk). Rely on member feedback to help you with your questions of who's trustworthy.

    . Any actions that goes on outside the forums is in no way attached to the forums. We don't need anymore drama from AIM (Or any IM client) brought onto here. If it didn't happen on the board, it is not in our hands to deal or help you solve your problems.

    . is its own, and does not try to invade/spam other forums - Anyone spreading rumors or trying to find a false factor to accuse Se7ensins of is not permitted. Members are not told to say any of some sort, and if it does happen, please report the member and the problem and we'll deal with the member as we see fit.

    . Name changes - For more on name changes, look here to request: Click Here . Please read all notices in the first post before replying.

    . Rule Changes - These rules are not definite, they can and will change in the future without notice. It is your job to stay up to date with our rules. If a member does not "break a rule" but is acting out, we will deal with that member as we deem fit.
