Greetings! SerialZero, your resident moderator here. Time to lay down the basic ground rules of the forum. These are just some helpful guidelines for participating in Neoseeker discussion boards, so don't panic. Nobody's getting spanked (yet).

TITLING: When creating a thread title, put the topic of the problem you're having in it so that others will know what that thread is about. Simply putting down "Help" or "I'm stuck" doesn't help anybody who's looking at it to know what you need help with.

SPAMMING: Please limit your posts to on-topic discussions pertaining to the game itself. Going off on personal sub-conversations or irrelevant tangents will only clutter up a thread and prevent other gamers from finding the info they need right away because they now have to wade through three pages of unrelated info. Any spam I see will be deleted at once.

FLAMING: There will be no aggressive posts allowed in the forum. Members caught insulting or otherwise acting badly towards other members will be banned from the forum, no questions asked. I have zero tolerance for name-calling, racial slurs, etc.

GENERAL HELP: Please refrain from creating "General Help" threads. If you have a question on a specific topic, create a new thread for it. That way, people can find the info they need by reading the thread title more quickly than if it's buried inside eight pages of another thread.

SPOILERS: If the content of your post has information that could possibly ruin the surprises and/or storyline, please include "Spoilers" somewhere in your thread title to warn people. If the info is in the middle of a thread you didn't start, put it at the top of your message instead.

That's all for now! Any questions can be PM'd to me directly.
