Forum Regime, as of August 4, 2015
Behaviour Related
I. Spam: Spam is explicitly prohibited in this forum. Double-posting is an exception to this rule. Extensive self-advertisement can and will be argued as spam. The first violation of this rule will result in a verbal warning at the staff's discretion, while a second violation will result in a punishment adjusted to the infringement's severity.
II. Behaviour: We forbid defamation, i.e., the unjust injuring of a reputation. Personal attacks, discrimination, prejudice, and ad hominem are not allowed. Violating this rule will result in any punishment ranging from a verbal warning to a temporary ban, adjusted to the severity of the infringement.
III. "Mini Modding": While this is tolerable, users are advised to avoid major issues - all issues in the forum are managed by the staff. We do not wish to have any misunderstandings between our behalf and an user's behalf, thus we prefer our users to report issues, not try to solve them by themselves. While this infringement will not result in any form of account suspension, technical warnings can be applied.
IV. Personal Message Spam: We encourage our users to contact us if someone in special is abusing of the PM tool. Action will be taken and personal messaging might be disabled temporarily or permanently for the reported user. We do not encourage users to use Personal Messages for pointless announcements. Sending global messages without having a good reason will lead to a temporary personal messaging suspension of the user and will vary from a couple days to two months, or permanently.
V. Extensive Swearing: Swearing is allowed to some extent, but the user will be warned if he swears extensively. If the warning is somewhat ignored, a more severe action will be taken.
VI. Trolling: This behaviour will not be tolerated, and the minimum consequence for this would be a suspension of one month.
VII. Explicit Content: Posting explicit content is not allowed. Extremely violent imagery or video displays will be removed, as well as with pornography, which also results in a ban. Animal cruelty is extremely prohibited, and if posted will be quickly removed and the user verbally warned.

I. Overpowered Characters: Please do not make your character too powerful in comparison to the others. This includes oversized characters, which will be scaled down by a staff member if they happen to be made.
II. Confusing Events: Avoid events that cannot be easily understood.
