Standard Forum Rules [Updated September 4, 2015]
« on: June 18, 2013, 05:59:48 PM »
These rules must be followed at all times, or you put yourself at risk of getting warned or banned.

Make sure you properly read this so you don't misunderstand any of the rules.

Moderators reserve the right to warn and ban members who consistently fail to show an understanding of the following rules.
   
1] No spamming
It just adds more clutter to the forums.
Do not post about your ban, you were banned for a reason.


2] No pornography*, gore or anything that is visually inappropriate, or any images that may cause seizures.
This also includes avatars/signatures. Any degree of inappropriate avatars or signatures will get you banned.


3] Do not bump old threads
if you want to continue those topics - Start a new topic. Curtain expections to this rule are allowed.


4] Be mature on the forums
Acting immaturely around here will most likely get you the wrong attention and cause problems. If you can't convince us you're 13 or older, then you shouldn't really be here.


5] No illegal content, I Wanna Community's not the place for it.
such as promoting CP, distributing torrents, selling illegal substances


6] Post threads in the right sections
Posts about Video Games belong in the Video Games section, Anime posts in the Anime section, and so on


7] Be nice - Don't start arguments & be nice to new members
Arguments - They go on and on and end up derailing the thread they're started on. If you have beef with someone, at least have the decency to do it somewhere else.
New Members - They're called new members for a reason. Let them get the hang of the forums, they're new and don't know the full routine just yet so may not be adjusted to the standards here. If they're problematic a Moderator will sort them out.


8] No post farming
one-word, one-image posts, quote farming (reposting someones repost of someones quote), etc


9] Sexist/Transphobic/Homophobic/Racist posts are not tolerated. - It doesn't matter if they're a guy, a girl, a guy who's a girl on the inside, a girl who's a guy on the inside, a guy who likes guys or a girl who likes girls, a purple person, a pink person or your mother. They're a person just like you.



Note, there are certain threads for certain subjects now to cut back on clutter. Any extra topics created with these will be merged to the parent topic.

What the moderator says, goes. No exceptions, whatsoever.
Offenders will be dealt with appropriately, do not question the decision of a moderator, however if you strongly feel the decision is wrong, do not hesitate to send Starz0r a private message.

The last thing we want to do is to scare people from posting. You shouldn't have any problem following these rules if you remember to post with COMMON SENSE.

"Without law, there can be no freedom." So listen to all of these rules responsively and correctly.

Made major changes to the forum rules, look over them when you guys get the chance. Tried to flesh out the rules more so people will have a better understanding.

I feel the need to mention, seeing that it happens way too often, that posts should go in Help, Suggestions, & Feedback if and only if you have trouble navigating the forums, you have a suggestion for improving the forum experience, or you've noticed a bug in the forum. Anything involving getting through some part of a fangame and etc. goes in Gameplay & Discussion.
