[Must Read] The Laws of the Land
« Thread Started on Oct 16, 2008, 6:54pm »

The rules of the board are listed below, as well as the consequences for rule breaking. Rule specific consequences will be outlined in the article itself.

I. Respect
II. Internet Caution
III. Language Restraint
IV. Sexual Content
V. Spam
VI. Words Ending in -Ism

I. Respect

R-E-S-P-E-C-T, find out what it means to me! Respect all members of Fallen Grace, even if they anger you to the point of murder. Remember, we're all here for friends and a community to come to when real life isn't so nice. Flaming and disrespectful conduct defeats the purpose of this forum, therefore it will be punished.

II. Internet Caution

Please avoid giving out personal information such as full name, phone number, address, etc. I do not mind the occasional exchange of age or real names, but first names ONLY please.

Special Consequence: Immediate 2 week ban.

III. Language Restraint

I do not mind cuss words here and there, but please do not fill your posts with them. In my opinion, they help people express themselves, but over excessive use of curse words will ultimately lead to consequences. Take caution.

IV. Sexual Content

All sexual content is prohibited. No posting porn sites, videos, threads, RPs, etc. Please remember that though members under 13 should not be able to join the site, there may be a few around. Besides that, many people don't want to read about it. So don't get graphic!

Special consequence: Immediate 2 week ban. Should there be a second offense, you will face account deletion.

V. Spam

If you want to advertise your website, post it in the Affiliates section. All spam, including PM spam, is not allowed. Spam can also include double posting, netspeak (Although some common acronyms are allowed--lol, for instance), off topic posts, overly short posts (one word), etc.

VI. Words Ending in -Ism

Racism, sexism, etc. Discrimination is wrong. And I will not have it happening on this forum. If you are a victim of discrimination, please contact a moderator and send them the thread and/or PM in which it occurred.

Consequences

All warning levels will be removed once 2 weeks of post probation has been completed. This is when staff must approve all of your posts.

First Offense: Warning from a staff member, either through PMs or in the thread itself.

Second Offense: Warning level +10%.

Third Offense: Warning level +20%, 10 post deduction.

Fourth Offense: Warning level +30%, 50 post deduction.

Fifth Offense: Warning level +50%, 1 week ban, 100 post deduction.

Sixth Offense: Warning level +70%, 2 week ban, 200 post deduction.

Seventh Offense: Warning level +100%, one month ban, 300 post deduction.

Eighth Offense: Account deletion.
