FORUM RULES
These rules apply to the forum alone. For server rules, see "Server Rules" or check the sign at Spawn Point.

* RANDOMNESS MUST BE PRESENT IN EVERY POST!!! ✱

Basics

* Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users should read the forum descriptions before posting.
* Members should remember this board is rated PG-13. Posting pornographic or generally offensive text, images, links, etc. will not be tolerated.
* Members should be respectful to others in their post. Abusing users in any way will not be tolerated.
* Members are asked not to impersonate moderators. This includes policing other users through replies, or threatening to take moderator action to a post or to another user. Members are reminded that you can use the Report Abuse button to posts that they find as an offensive or tasteless contribution. Members can gain an enhanced moderator status (see 'Moderators') if they do provide fine detailed reports. Furthermore, abuse of the Report Abuse button is irritating to the moderators, and will not be tolerated either.
* Members are asked to speak in English, as this is an English speaking forum. Posts containing limited text of other languages may be manually translated to the best of our abilities, but please keep it on-topic. Repetitive posts in other languages off-topic may lead to warnings.
* Members are advised to avoid copyright infringements, and must include credit for their content that was not their own. The only exception is Mojang. Credit is automatically given to them throughout the forum, as much as humanly possible without irritation.
* Members should respect the bandwidth of other users. Please limit the size of your content to a respectable size.
* Spam, like in other forums, is not tolerated anywhere on the forum. This includes (but not limited to) intentional multi-posting of the same post, promoting off-topic events, promoting services non-specific to the server, and one-word posts
* The moderating, support and other teams reserve the right to edit, remove or put on moderation queue any post at any time. The determination of what is construed as indecent, vulgar, spam, etc. as noted in these points is up to moderators and admins.
* The above forum rules where applicable also apply to private messaging.

Signatures & Avatars

* Signatures may contain up to five lines of text (of small or normal size) and/or one image, restrictions on the image are supplied in the settings, courtesy of ZetaBoards. Animated signitures are not permitted. Save that for your avatar.
* Links in signatures are permitted to a maximum of 2 unique pages or sites. You may not link to offensive, tasteless, illegal or pornagraphic sites.
* Avatars also are within the guidelines supplied by Zetaboards, although animated avatars are permitted.

Policing

* Tobiscuits' Server Forum operates a reputation policy (depicted herein as HP). Members will begin with maximum HP, and any offences will result in a decrease of HP.
* Decreases in HP are static. HP decreases by 20% no matter what the severity of the offence was. Temporary silences or bans may be given if needed. Details of HP alterations can be viewed in your Warning details.
* HP cannot increase over time, but consistent good contribution to the forum could restore lost HP.
* A further warning at 0% HP restores your HP, but you become an Outlaw in the forums and the server itself. If you are already an outlaw in this case, you will be banned from the server, but you may still post a ban dispute on the forum if you wish.
* Users who feel they have been unfairly warned are welcome to contact an Admin, e.g. if warned by a moderator you should contact the Admins. If they feel you were treated badly they remove a warning.


✱Gemma must not edit the rules. Because she is silly
