The rules, read 'em.

1. The mod is always right. What the mod says, goes.

2. If you have a question about any of these rules, or if you have a question about your ban, PM a mod. Do not post about your ban on the forum. If you post about your ban on the forum, you may get banned again.

3. You are expected to abide by the spirit of these rules. What does that mean? That means that if the rule says "Do not talk about purple things" and you post talking about violet things, or lavender things, then you will get banned. (No, you are not being forbidden from talking about purple things. That was just an example). Do not try to find loopholes in the rules. You will be banhammered if you do..

4. Don't be a jerk.
You’re welcome to disagree with another member’s opinion but attacking (flaming) and insulting another member is not acceptable. Intentionally starting flame wars WILL cause you to be banned for a while.

You can say "I disagree, and here is why". You can NOT say "I disagree and I think you suck". You can say "I do not like racing games". You can NOT say "This player has built a racing game and I hate it".

4a. What is a personal attack? A personal attack is when you post about a player on the forum and talk about them in a negative way. This includes announcing that somebody scammed you, or that somebody is a hacker. DO NOT NAME NAMES. Linking to their profile is the same as naming their name.

5. No degrading racial comments are allowed.
I shouldn't even have to say this. Seriously, you guys. Don't hate.

6. No Politics. No Religion.
We prefer that members not get involved in political or religious discussions because they often result in flaring tempers and flame wars. Yes, you may make a religious or political shirt. Yes, you may make a religious or political game. No, you may not talk about your political views or religious ideals on the forum. No exceptions.

7. No “this vs. that” posts (ie Ford vs Chevy).
These types of threads invoke strong opinions, flaring tempers, and often result in flame wars and mass penalties. These threads will ultimately end up being deleted.

8. No whining about moderation
This mostly applies to the operation and moderation of the online community. Members will be banned, threads removed, and so on based on the clearly defined rules. Publicly bemoaning the operation of the community and the way the rules are enforced will not put you in good favor with the moderators. If you have a legitimate concern or suggestion, PM a moderator. This also includes "pity threads", meaning ones proclaiming you're leaving, my cat died, etc.

9. No spamming.
akdjfaskhj is spam. Posting the same thing over and over is spam. Responding to somebody with a short pointless comment like tl;dr or inb4b& is spam AND it's rude. Don't do this. If you are going to take the time to post on the forum, make sure that you actually have something to say.

9a. Post things on the appropriate forum. Scripting questions go on Scripting Help. Discussion about TV shows (including My Little Pony) goes on Movies/Books/TV. If you are not certain which forum you should post on, PM a mod and ask. Posts posted on the wrong forum may be moved or deleted without warning. Repeat posts may be flagged as spam.

10. No dangerous or harmful posts.
Posts that encourage members to participate in real-world activities that we deem to be harmful or dangerous to members will be deleted (i.e. lighting things on fire, jumping cars over people, deleting necessary computer files, etc.).

11. Just because you know somebody who broke a rule and didn't get banned does not mean that you get to break that rule, too. Instead of complaining how unfair the mods are, go report the person who got away with breaking the rule.

12. Do not talk about 2012/the end of the world/Armageddon.
Some people get scared at the thought of the end of the world.

13. These rules are not complete. They will be updated from time to time. Make sure you check back every few days to see if a new rule has been added.
