We all need to know the following things. Otherwise, you'll have problems.
1) No 1337. At all. It's annoying.
2) No spamming. Spamming: Saying something stupid like "I am fish" or "I like cheese," or saying something pointless. Example, in the topic "Things You Hate."
Mario: I hate it when people yell really loudly to get a point across, even if it's wrong.
Link: I know, that's the most annoying thing a person can do. I agree, Mario.
Pikachu: I dunno, it's actually pretty funny when you nail 'em with evidence.
Kirby: Hey, Pikachu, where'd you get that sig?
3) No one-word posts. Pretty easy.
4) Don't flame. Flaming is insulting someone cruelly or humorously but they don't know it.
5) Trolls will be prosecuted painfully. Trolling is coming on specifically to make a nuisance of yourself.
6) Posting with only a number of pictures is prohibited.
7) Don't talk with all caps. This includes holding the Shift key while typing and Caps Lock.
8) Give credit where due. For example, in "General Q&A..."
Kirby: Hey, King K. Rool, where'd you get that sig?
King K. Rool: I made it myself.
DK: YOU LIAR! I made that!
King K. Rool: Prove it.
DK: Here's the link! [Link to Kong's Sig Shop1, DK posted it.]
9) Credit copyrighted material.1 If you don't know what's being copyrighted, use these examples as a base.
Mario: Here's a pic of TruLife(c)*.
DK: TruLife(c) is for noobs. Use ReaLife1.
1: I don't know who owns ReaLife.
Mario: ReaLife(c) confuses me too much. I guess I'm a noob then.
10) Follow board rules. For example, in "Forum Games," I have a set of rules specifically for them. Follow them.
11) All Proboards rules apply. After all, this IS hosted by Proboards.
1: Kong's Sig Shop is an actual sig shop at an actual forum. I don't own it. It's owned by a friend of mine.
