Well here are the rules:
Table of contents:
1.) Spamming
2.) Flaming
3.) Cursing
4.) Self control
5.) Mod abuse
6.) Art
7.) Admin
8.) Other
1.) Spamming
1-1 No double posting:
Double posting is when you post twice in a row. Most people here are not new to forums so you should know about this
1-2 Off topic posting:
When you post on a thread about what were going to do and you ask if people like your signature. If your post doesn't contribute, don't post it.
1-3 Making pointless threads:
Do not be afraid to make a thread but please don't make one asking if people like your sig or one that just says "hi" It should contribute to the forum and the theme of ebilness.
2.) Flaming
2-1 No flaming in community members
With the whole Zorbak Kabroz rivalry it will be harder to keep this lower than other forums. Please respect other members and their opinions
2-2 No flaming administrators or moderators
If your dumb enough to waltz on up to an admin and flame him\her then you definitely have a ban wish. If you have a problem, try to constructively tell an admin who will most likely fix it. I have learned over the years screaming only makes things worse.
3.) Cursing
3-1 Cursing AT members:
Again, with the Zorbak Kabroz rivalry this may be hard to control but you should NEVER curse at someone. first time offense will get you a warning but after that, its banned for a week. If you still continue then its a PERM BAN!!
3-2 Influenced Cursing:
When you post curses at nothing. Just because your angry Zorby lost a war or that someone posted an embarrassing picture of Kabroz. It is not as bad as cursing AT someone but will not be tolerated.
4.) Self Control
4-1 Breaking more than one of the rules 1-3 in the same post:
If you break rules 1 and 2 the punishment comes here. Here the punishments are FAR worse and it is not a fun boat to be in. Your punishment will be decided depending on my mood and how bad you broke the rule.
5.) Mod abuse
5-1 Moderator abuse:
When a local mod abuses his power, the member has broken this rule. Abusing power is deleting thread that aren't finished, giving punishments to members you don't like, locking threads that aren't finished and so forth. this can get you anywhere from a warning to a PERM BAN.
5-2 Global Mod abuse:
If you abuse your power in more than one board you suffer this rule's punishment. It is basically the same as above only with a more sever punishment.
5-3 Administrator abuse:
When an admin abuses his power (making un-needed boards) he is immediately removed of his powers. and given a 2 WEEK BAN.
6.) Art
6-1 Signatures:
Can be no larger than 500x100. Cannot support evil good or twiggish. It doesn't necessarily have to be ebil (it can be something not related to AQ) but it cant be one of the above.
6-2 Signature (text under):
You may have up to 3 lines of text under your 500x100 signature. Reasons simply so we dont have signatures that thake up too much space on our forum.
6-3 Avatars:
Cannot be larger that 95x95. Cannot support evil good or twiggish. It doesn't necessarily have to be ebil (it can be something not related to AQ) but it cant be one of the above.
6-4 Banners\edited pics:
No size limit for edits but try to keep banners to a decent size. We may choose to use it. Cannot support evil good or twiggish. It doesn't necessarily have to be ebil (it can be something not related to AQ) but it cant be one of the above.
6-5 ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY NO PORN!
This will get your but banned faster than you can think! No putting it on signatures or avatars or anything! 1st offense will get you a PERM BAN!
7.) Admin
7-1 Admin decisions are final:
My decisions are final any other admins decisions can be overruled by me. Admins are under NO circumstances, obligated to tell you why he\she made his\her decision. If you think the admin in a good mood then you can try PMing him\her and asking why.
8.) Other
8-1 Thread Topic title:
Every board that is not Rules, Help\Support, Suggestions, Discussion, must have "Zorbak" "Kabroz" "Ebil" or something about being anti-evil\good\twiggish MUST be in the title. This is to avoid spammy thread and keep the ebil theme alive
8-2 Chatting:
If you noticed there is a JAVA chat on this forum. You are NOT allowed to curse on it unless all other chatters agree. if you do, you can be reported and then you suffer the punishments.
8-3 Giving out false information:
If you decide it would be funny to tell a member that they're hated by all admins or any other thing like that, then you will be banned for 2 weeks. If it's information about yourself, no one will care and be on your way. Telling people certain threads aren't allowed then you break this rule.
8-4 Genders:
Members are under NO CIRCUMSTANCES required to tell their gender. Just be aware that most players are male so you will most likely be called "him" and "he" if you do not tell members otherwise.
8-5 Anything you KNOW wouldn't be allowed:
Lets face it, there is no humane way I can write every stupid thing people will do. If there is something I missed, and you break what SHOULD be a rule, you suffer the consequence of what that rule will be made into.
