Official Warcraft Anime Rules.

1. Posting

A. Spamming - [ Refrain from spam/one-liner replies, such as "thx, ..., *emotion*, "lol,"

etc... Try to extend your post so it is meaningful.

B. Reposting - We encourage you to use the search function before you go about asking

a question. Chances are, your question may have already been answered, and can

lessen the time it takes to wait for a response if you were to create your own.

C. Bumping - Pay attention to the date of the last post. Bumping old topics (around 2+

weeks from last post) is allowed, but only if you have an informative addition to the

topic, or it is a tutorial you would like to respond to.

D. Flaming - We try to keep this board as civil as possible. One thing we will not

tolerate is the use of insults towards other members. You can express your opinion

civilly, no need to be harsh about it. If things start heating up, use the report function.

Failing to do so and deciding to take matter into your own hands can result in

punishment for yourself as well.

E. Posting Clarity - Make an attempt to make your posts legible. It takes less effort to

read complete sentences. We want to understand you. (s0 3v3n th0ugh m0st p30pL3

c4n r34d d1z, n0 0n3 3nj0yz 1t.) Also, do not post in all CAPS. People take CAPS as a

form of screaming.

F. Welcoming/Respect - We encourage everyone to help out members here. If you don't

have anything nice to say to them, don't say anything at all. Basically, be polite

reasonably nice at all times.

G. No Racist/Homophobic Epithets - As always, any and all racial slurs used against

any person or object will not be tolerated to ANY degree. THIS RULE ALSO APPLIES TO

HOMOPHOBIC SLURS-- this includes, but is not limited to, the use of the word "fag"

and any of its derivations.

H. Trolling - Trolling is defined as making a post or thread in order to provoke an angry

reaction from a member/ group of members/ everyone. While some find this amusing, it

is not allowed in the forums. Everyone has a little troll in them, and staff recognizes

that, but as stated earlier, if you break the rules frequently, you will be punished more

frequently and more harshly.

2. Threads

A. Reposting (again) - If you have a question to ask: Sit. Tight. Making more threads will

result in them getting removed, and if you continue to spam, necessary actions will be

made.

B. Threads must not contain any around, close, or directly to these topics:
Host Booting/Flooding (Discussion & Program)
Torrent Tracker invites/account trading
Unauthorized advertising
Porn/Explicit Content
Suspension/Banning Of A Member (Discussing is only between the member and staff)
Username/Passwords/IP/Credit Cards

Any threads that revolve around those type of topics are to be reported immediately.

C. recognizes the existence of torrents and warez, but we do not support nor condone

the hosting of warez or torrents on this site; that includes, but is not limited to, posting

instructions on how to crack programs, posting links to a torrent tracker or directing

members to a website where cracked programs are hosted (this includes trading

torrent tracker invites

D. Make sure you post in the correct section - When asking for help, make sure you do

it in the "Feedback" section of that forum. If you feel a topic is in the wrong

section just report the post. Don't act like a mod and yell at the person for posting the

thread in the wrong area.

3. Avatars & Signatures

A. Avatars & Signature must not contain:

Pornography - Anything showing genitalia or sexual contact, either

photographed, drawn, or computer generated is strictly prohibited. Use your judgment

when using erotic signatures of any kind. Excessive cleavage, depiction of obscene

sexual acts without genitals visible, and furry/lolicon are not a way around these rules.

Child porn is grounds for a permanent ban on the first offense.
Racism/Xenophobia - Do not use signatures that are disparaging to

any ethnic group, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. This is simple enough.
Malevolent Links - Links to "shock" sites and links to any sort of

website that uses any sort of coding to screw with your browser window are strictly

prohibited and will be removed.

Advertising- Advertising including, but not limited to links to other

clans/servers not authorized by a Manager is not allowed.

B. Signatures must be kept reasonable in length! This is up to the judgment of staff.

4. Warnings / Infractions System

Arguing With A Member - If you have a problem with a member,

report the issue and let a staff member step in and settle the situation. Yelling back

will get you no where.
Arguing With A Staff Member - May result in a higher offense. If a

staff member says the final words, those words are final. If there is a definite problem,

see the Managers (or another Manager, if the issue is with a Manager) about the issue

with the current staff member, but do no flame or insult the staff members directly.
Spamming - Usually, we will just remove spam and move on. If it

becomes an issue, we will inform you with a warning/infraction. PM Spamming is an

automatic ban. We do not tolerate people giving members a hard time with their spam.
Advertisement - May result in a warning/suspension. If only posted

once, a small warning and a removal of the link/topic may be given. If you wish to

affiliate, contact a Manager.
Requesting/Posting Illegal Content - Depending on the nature of

the post, posting illegal content can result in something as lenient as a warning or as

severe as a permanent ban. Illegal content can put the board in trouble, and we do not

want to be in that situation.
Racism- Racism wont be tolerated, period. When you act like

that, you're not only creating a negative image of yourself, but also people are on the

board; if that's the way you want to act then this isn't the place for you. Keep it to

yourself.

Hacking/Exploiting - Hacking will NOT be tolerated under any

circumstance. We take pride in our new 0% tolerance hacking policy. Hacking

includes, but is not limited to, the use of scripts, programs, or materials to unfairly tilt

the game to your advantage.

5. Advertising

Do not recruit or advertise for your clan or forum. Advertising includes, but not limited

to, links to other clans/forums not authorized by a Manager.
