Forum Rules - READ THIS

(1/12) > >>

Maze:
I just wanted to create a thread to outline the forum rules so that newcomers know what to expect from this forum when they join. Of course, the audience of RPPR being what it is, we don't get trolling or flame wars. As the forums gets bigger however, the stricter the rules have to be so the quality of threads don't go down. Most of these are simple common sense rules or whims so it cause no great controversy in the community.

Quality = fun and/or intelligent.

- The first and only rule ever written by Ross was the one of anti-censorship. Roleplaying Public Radio doesn't condone censorship and if you censor yourself by saying f**k, motherf*cker or sh!t, a mod will come along and replace those words by proper swear words. Fuck, motherfucker, shit.

- Write in a way other people will understand. That means, avoid excessive typos, there's a spellchecker for a reason. Try to avoid abbreviations too. Some are acceptable but when reading becomes deciphering, there's a problem. Foreigners from whom English is their second language of course won't be shot, but are encouraged to make the effort to improve their grammar. English is MY second language and I've made the effort.

- Don't be a troll, ogre or kobold. We'll fuck you up. No flame wars. You can agree to disagree if you can't simply bring your viewpoint with a well thought out argument.

-No SPAMMING. We'll fuck you up. Shameless plug, I personally don't mind, as long as it's not advertising and it's relevant to the topic at hand. Spamming includes posting pointless shit threads. These threads will be locked.

-Don't be a kender sympathizer. We'll fuck you up.

-If you're going to post a topic or, really, do anything on these forums it better be for the fucking lulz humorous intent. The only reason anything should ever be done ever is for the fucking lulz humorous intents.

-No shotgun posting. Don't make a lot of no content posts, m'kay?

NO IMAGE LEECHING



Anyway, I'd like to hear all of your suggestions for rules to help maintain the forums the way we love it.  And I'd like to know if there's current users that for whatever reason might have problems with swearing, because of their job or whatever.
