Rules - EVERYONE MUST READ
1. No "flaming" other people
Flaming is when you direct a nasty comment towards someone. We will have none of this happening, this is a friendly board and for your benefit! Don't ruin it for yourself!
2. You MUST be thirteen years old
This may seem like a very unfair rule but when you sign up for an account on Proboards, it states in the TOS that you MUST be thirteen. If we find you are thirteen the consequences will be dire.
3. Please keep all content PG or PG-13
This is in conjuction with the rule above, there are going to be thirteen year olds on this board and that means that you must NOT post anything that they shouldn't see. You should know what is and isn't PG-13.
4. Don't sign-up and not post!
If you sign-up, please post and join in on the fun of the community. If you sign-up and don't post then your account will be deleted without you ever knowing. If, however, you have posted once, an e-mail will be sent to you first before your deletion.
5. Don't spam the other members inbox's with PM's about your 'wonderful site!'
There is a thread on this board that is dedicated to other sites. That is where you are to post your adverts for your sites and not via PM. Anyone caught PMing someone about their 'awesome' site will be warned.
6. Role-playing is so much better when you know what you are doing!
This rule basically means that we have set up role-playing guidelines for a reason. Please stick to them as this will make the experience as a whole more enjoyable for everyone.
7. Don't give out personal information about another member!
Personal information is as simple as a real name to a complex address of where someone lives. It is down to THEM to decide whether they want that information broadcasted on the internet, not YOU!
8. Don't request to be a staff member
If you ask us if you can be a staff member it will lower your chances of becoming one. We will be choosing active members who we know would help the site. We need to know we can trust the people we choose.
9. Don't complain about other members of staff
All of the staff have been chosen for a reason and they are taking time out of their daily schedules to help with this site. It may not seem like they are doing very much to help but you can easily be mistaken, there is a lot of stuff going on in the background that YOU don't know about.
10. HAVE FUN!
The main purpose of this board is so that YOU can have fun, you can enjoy the board and do one of the things that you really like so you might as well just HAVE FUN!
11. SPECIAL WORD!
The special word that you are asked to write when posting in the registration board to show you have read the rules is: Halo
