Rules
Please follow these rules if you want to be a member on this site and not get into trouble every 5 minutes.
Do not do the following!
SWEARING
Although the swear words are currently translated into other words, the sense of trying to hurt someone is still felt. Please refrain from using swear words at all times. Frequent swearers will be warned, then banned. Any thread containing swear words will be edited so that they will no longer contain foul language.
SPAM
Please do not fill the boards with SPAM. It is annoying and can get hard to read. On this site, things like using improper grammar and punctuation, replying with a different subject to a thread, double posting (or posting twice in a row), etc. are considered SPAM. You will receive warning depending on the amount you SPAM.
GORE-OVERDOSE
Of course we wish to use blood and gore on this site, but never use it overly. Please respect the squeamish, and do not make gorey text too long, or graphic. And also, please do not make gore-scenes too unrealistic. The Tropical have their limits too you know!
STAFF
Please respect the staff members. Without them this site probably wouldn't function very well. Examples of disrespecting staff are nagging them to do something and arguing against what they say. The word of the staff is rule!
ADVERTISING
Please do not advertise anywhere but in the Advertising board. The board was made for that so don't clog up the rest of the site with stuff that doesn't belong.
POWERPLAYING/GOD-MODDING
We do not tolerate these things. Powerplaying is when you control someone else's character. God-modding is when you 'act like a god', an example would be a baby fish going out and bringing home a huge shark for dinner! Also, please try not to mini-mod, moderating a site that you are not a mod on.
PLAGERISM
If you claim an image/passage of text as your own, when it isn't, you are plagerising. Plagerists are not welcome on this forum, and will recieve a warning, then a ban. If a thread is found, containing plagerised content, than that thread will be modifyed by a fellow member of staff.
If you see anyone stretching the rules of this site, please sned a PM to any staff member and let them deal with it.
