With the growth of the forum here, I'm going to put up a quick RFS/Forum Rules thread until a new moderator is chosen to handle the forum. The Sitewide Rules are first and foremost.

Most of this is just common sense, really, and it's pretty obvious that for the most part, from the lack of moderator involvement, you guys are doing fine and are within forum rules.

1. Off Topic Posts

Although this is already listed in Neoseeker's forum rules, it would be good for all to review this specific rule itself. Any off topic posts will and can be deleted. This means that, unless it is specific to that thread or in the general discussion as set out by the original post, it will be deleted. If I begin to find similar posts all over the place, expect a short ban. Also, any short, one liner posts will also be dealt with accordingly, since most of the time, they contribute absolutely nothing to the discussions at hand.

2. Gaming/Non-Bully Threads

These must be passed by me or Raijin1999 before being created please, or they may face deletion if there are too many in the forum. As for other threads, if they are asking for assistance, please answer their question and report the message.

3. Quoting

Please only quote if need be, such as to draw attention to a point or if the posts was several back. Otherwise, don't, as it does not help the thread to have six paragraphs and two lines in response.

4. Flaming and Trolls

Twenty day ban, no questions, if I see a flame war. When you insult any member, expect one of these to be flung in your general direction.

5. Memberation

I can use the mod queue. If you can't and decide to circumvent me, then your post will be edited. Repeated memberation will get you banned for a short period of time. While stop gap, myself and Raijin1999 are the only two moderators here for the section, and no moderator has been promoted yet. Until then, please use the handy report feature (report) which is attatched to all posts in this forum.

6. Titles of Threads

If I can't tell the general idea of the thread from the title, then it is most likely not sufficient for your needs. This is more of a suggestion, as it is not I who will need help, but you. So give your thread a meaningful name, and not "HELP!!1!!1".

7. Language

We speak English on Neoseeker, and not some form of chatbox slang, 1337 or msn shorthand. If I can't decipher your post, it's worthless, therefore spamming and will be deleted.

8. Double Posting

These will be merged. If I see too much of this, then prepare to recieve a warning. There is an amazing tool called 'Edit' (edit) on the bottom of each of your posts. Use it! Otherwise, you might get a PPD limit placed on you for a short amount of time.

9. Reporting Posts

One report for a thread full of spam is fine, thanks, as I can find my way and read through the thread from there. Several posts in a row moved to the mod queue is just a pain to get through. If the entire thread is full of spam, mention it to me in the report summary and I will deal with it. Flaming the thread creator in your report doesn't help either, so making a report saying:

quote

He's being an ass again, ban him!

Won't be looked upon kindly. See rule number 4.

Please follow these rules and hopefully you'll stay will be enjoyable.

The thread is open for any suggestions that you guys may have. Make 'em here, and I'll check 'em out the next time I come through.

Idk maybe a Glitches stickey? We should make a rule that no porno or something?

Are you going to make any contests? Like a header contest or whatever?

aye i think a nice header would brighten the forum up and would be good that the actuall members made it etc thats a good idea lol

Sure, anyone here interested in a graphics contest? I'd like to have a few who will participate for sure before I start anything up, so if I get three responses from people willing to participate, I'll start 'er up.

yeh i would be up for it even though im not the greatest lol

Alright, it's closing on a month since the topic was last brought up, so for anyone who checks this thread, would they be interested in a forum header contest? At the moment, I'm, reluctant to carry through with that without more users.

Other than that, someone can always toss a header in here, and if everyone likes it I can place it up.

So.. Do we need a thread index? Just checking....

I'll make a header now. I'll edit when its ready.

Edit :



Wannt It?

Thanks, I hope its the winner.

heres a really quick one i tried i wanted to give it a christmasy feeling i dont think it worked

There's no point in putting a christmas header since Christmas is almost over.

Yup, In 4 Days, your header would most likely be taken down.
