Forum Rules - Please Read.

[Crimson Archer]

1. Conduct

1.1. The 'Golden Rule' - Please respect others.

1.2. No posts that are likely to cause offense. This includes racially or sexually offensive posts.

1.3. No abusive or personal attacks on other forum members, neither in the forums nor via Private Message. This includes ‘flame wars’ or sexually/racially offensive references. Debating and discussion is fine, but we will not tolerate insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Please approach posts on the forum with a mature attitude.

1.4. Do not attempt to impersonate another CoX player, someone else's character (unless with permission, please see the RP Guidelines for details) or other forum user.

1.5. Do not create multiple user accounts for any purpose. Such accounts will be deleted and may lead to a ban.

1.6. Please keep avatar and signature images to a reasonable size. 120x120 pixels is a good maximum size for avatars, as large images disrupt the forum and make navigation difficult for others. We would ask you to use your discretion with signature images; please do not allow them to take up too much space on screen. Remember that people use different screen resolutions.

2. Posting guidelines

2.1. No advertising or spam. We hate that and will remove the thread/post.

2.2. Do not use profanity in thread titles. Such threads are likely to be renamed or deleted.

2.4. DO make thread titles relevant, otherwise the thread is likely to be renamed or deleted.

2.5. Please refrain from starting meaningless threads, and single-word (or single smiley) nonsense posts.

2.6. Please remember that The Militia community welcomes all languages, however English is used on the forum. Greetings, etc. are fine but please do not hold discussions in other languages as it makes moderation difficult or impossible. Also, any thread titles (with the exception of greeting/introduction threads) that are in languages other than English will be renamed.

2.7. No posts advocating illegal activities. This includes, but is not limited to, murder, assault, drug abuse, etc. Any stories which include references to the same should include a warning paragraph at the beginning.

2.8. No pornography, links to sites containing porn or porn links or references to porn sites. This includes site names, URLs and hints to the site names. Additionally no pornographic/graphic images are to be used for personal avatars or signatures. Please remember that this is a largely open forum and our visitors may come in all ages. Please respect the sensitivity of all ages.

2.9. Links to illegal software and music will be removed, as will threads asking for such links. This includes warez, cracks, copyrighted mp3 and video/movies. Direct links to Bit Torrents for such files will also be removed.

3. Rule Enforcement
3.1. The rules of the forum will be enforced by the Administrators and the Moderators. Please let them moderate: do not attempt to enforce the rules yourself.

3.2. Users who break the rules may be warned by an Administrator or a Moderator, depending on the seriousness of the offense, and may be subject to a ban, either temporarily or permanently. This will be carried out at the discretion of the Administrators, without warning.

3.3. Punishment resulting from a breach of the forum rules is at the discretion of the Administrators and Moderators; their decision is final. All cases are considered on an individual basis.

3.4. If you wish to report an abuse, please send an email or private message to one of the Administrators, clearly explaining the source of the abuse with a link to the relevant thread(s) in the forum, if possible.
