Hey guys.
Just wanted to establish a few things about this forum. We are here to have fun and interact as a community, and that is what these rules reflect. They are not difficult to follow, and if you are just using common sense, I can guarantee you that you will never violate them.
1) Keep cursing to a minimum.
- There are people of all ages on the internet, so while you may not have a problem with talking like a sailor, other people may. It is not prohibited, but please do not be excessive.
2) Do not impersonate staff.
- We know who you are, and more importantly, we know who we are. If we catch you trying to be we, good luck to us/you. Just do not try anything funny.
3) Do not do anything that would be considered illegal.
- If your mother would be ashamed of you doing it, that is a pretty good indicator. However, if your mother seems to be complacent with acts of perdition, then please do not use her as a yardstick. Pornography, pirated material, or anything that is generally objectionable on the internet should stay out of here.
4) No advertising.
- Have a link to a cool YouTube video or something neat that you learned today? That is awesome, post it for all to see. Want to attract other people to something that you are selling? Please refrain from doing that here.
5) Respect.
- Be respectful to other people on here, even if you do not like them. We want to promote a professional atmosphere, and flaming/harassment is not the way to do that.
6) Have fun.
- This is obviously the most grave of the forum rules. Anyone found not having fun will be immediately sentenced to dea- I mean... Enjoy yourselves.
7) The Reserved Rights Clause.
- We do reserve the right to warn you or ban you based on your actions, even if they are not explicitly covered by the other six rules. We are not unfair, so if you have nothing to worry about, then do not worry.

8) Post smart.
If you want to say something, please make sure that it is relevant or contributive to the topic of discussion in some way. If you are reading through a thread about how great Team Fortress 2 is, you probably shouldn't suddenly make a post about how much you love your girlfriend Maria or what you did with her last night.
Violation of these rules will at first result in a warning, and a repeat offense will either constitute a ban or another warning, depending on the severity. Again, it is up to our judgement, and you will be notified if any action is impending.
So yeah, common sense and kindness are the kings around here, and I am merely their Squire come to tell you to heed their warnings. Hope you have a blast!
P.S. If you have any questions about these rules, please feel free to PM one of the staff or leave a comment below.
