Official Forum Rules- Please Read before Posting

Please take your time to read these rules.

No Advertising.

Please do not Advertise. Not via PM, not in a new thread or anywhere else. There is a small "Website" part of your profile, you can put the link to your site, and you can put an advertisement in your signature. Please, if anyone advertises to you, please tell an Admin or Moderator.

No Spamming.

Please do not Spam, or go Off-Topic in any way. Spam is short for Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages, which include going off topic (eg. Me likez sockz!!!!), using more than 5 smileys in a single post at one time, or repeating things other people say (eg. Jay: That's good! I rate it 8/10. Tom: That's good! I rate it 8/10 also.)

No Major Swearing.

Please don't use Major Swearing in this Community, as there may be younger children (like me, but I can take swearing).
If you replace the rest of the Swear with Stars, it still counts.

No Double Posting.

Hence the Name. Do not post twice in a row. You can edit your old post and put in what you want so say, or wait for somebody else to post after you, then post again.

No Bumping/Grave Digging

Grave Digging is posting in topics more than a month old. All topics more than 5 weeks old will be moved to the Basket.
There are certain types of topics you can bump, which means posting in it so it goes back to the top of the topic list. You are allowed to make a double post in this situation.

No Adult Material

Don't post Pornography Pictures, or any form of Adult Material.

Flaming:
Flaming is basically starting an arguement. Please do not flame.

Sanctions:
Sanctions means punishments basically. Should you break a rule, your warning bar will deplete (go down). This can go down 5 times until you are banned. After a month, however, if your bar is depleted, we will let it go back up again. Just notify us by clicking here. Please do not attempt to trick us and pretend you have had it for a month, but only had it for less. We WILL ban you should you attempt to do this.

Thanks for reading the rules,

Chatter Community Staff.
