7. Spam isn't tolerated on this forum.
Examples of spam include, but are not limited to;
- Posting multiple times in a row rather than all in one post. Use the Edit button to edit your post if you have additional comments to make.
- Spamming the use of smilies in your posts. (Please limit to 4 or less.)
- Abusing the report system for any reason. (This includes, but isn't limited to; Posting gibberish in the reasoning for the report, filing a report after being asked to stop by staff, etc.)
- Making posts that are not relevant to the topic at hand or have very little content/quality. This rule applies everywhere. (In Role Ideas, explain why you like or dislike a role. Any posts failing to meet this requirement will be removed. In The Lounge, the enforcement is a little relaxed, but still enforced.)
- Post farming - the act of commenting on many threads with very small and lesser quality posts - is not allowed. If staff believe you are attempting to post farm, you will be contacted.
- Repeating what someone else has said. (This includes posting just exact quotes without addressing the quote.)
- Cross and double posting aren't allowed. (Posting in multiple forum boards or posting the same thread multiple times, respectfully.)
- Posting to derail the original topic of the thread in question and directing discussions in direction of a completely different topic.
- Posting asking for referrals towards the game's "Refer a Friend" feature to get the rewards.
The bolded ones are the ones I want you to look at the most. Because of the recent influxof low quality threads from similar people in short notice, the following amendment(s) will be added for the lounge:
- A forum user (OP) will only be able to make a thread in the Lounge once a week. Violators of this rule will be subject to their thread being canned and an immediate Board Warning.
- Threads with little to no quality have the possibility to be canned after a week. If you believe your thread should not be canned AFTER this rule is in place, please PM a Global Moderator with your reasoning for the thread to be kept.
Thank you for reading this.
EDIT:
Amendment 1
A forum user (OP) will only be able to make a thread in the Lounge twice a week.
The week shall start from this date, August 14th, 2017. When you make a thread on any day from here on out and then another, your week will start whenever you created the first thread. Ex: You make a thread on Tuesday at 3PM and Wednesday at 5PM, thus you cannot make a thread until next Tuesday after 3PM.
Violators of this rule will be subject to their thread being canned and an immediate Board Warning.
