General Board Rules
Respect
Please try your best to respect everyone on the boards. If you have a problem with someone or something, simply PM a mod/admin and we can work it out smoothly. There's no need for drama. Also, respect the rules that we have. If a mod/admin says it, that means that you should respect what they said and go by that.
Swearing
This site is for people of any age, so we would ask that you hold back from swearing. If a mod/admin finds any swearing then it will be removed. You can always PM us if you have an issue or problem with that. But, try and use the rule: if you wouldn't say it in front of your grandmother, don't say it on here. Just keep the boards clean is all we ask.
Personal Information
Try not to reveal all your personal information on here. It's okay if you share small things such as your name, age, state, job, IM info, etc. But, keep in mind that this is a public board. Anything that you say on here about yourself can be seen by others, people you don't know. So, try and not give out all your information before you regret it.
Double Posting
Try not to post twice in a row in the same thread. If you find that there was something you forgot to say in your last post, there's a simple modify button where you can edit your post. If you do double post, the last post will be deleted by a mod/admin.
Credit
While we're on the internet people seem to have the opinion 'once it's there it's for anyone' and that's not true. While it is true that once something is up everyone can see and take it but on here we'd like to give everyone the credit that they deserve for the things that they've posted up, be it on our site or any other. That can be as simple as linking back to a site, not taking content from a site and claiming it as yours, or even just saying this isn't mine; I don't know where it's from. This also applies to art, like a signature banner, if someone makes one for you (or you're using someones) make sure that you have the maker's OK to use it and then put in your signature, "made by bob" and maybe even link to their artwork thread.
