Addition to the Forum Rules
« on: January 24, 2007, 09:39:48 pm »
If you look at the current Forum Rules, you'll notice that we've made a small addition regarding forum games:

Quote
Forum Games.

Games should only be in the Lounge, must not interfere with the rest of the forums, and shouldn't be designed to generate spam, stupidity, or endless posts for the sake of posts.  For example, endless quote trains and games such as "Whoever posts the most wins!" and "Post the most useless map in the mapping forum to win!" will not be allowed.

Furthermore, use common sense when posting in games threads.  Any posts that don't follow the rules of the game or aren't directly related to conversation about the game will be treated as spam.

In other words, you now have free reign to create forum games as you please, so long as they remain within the bounds of those rules.

Keep in mind that we'll still lock games threads if they get out of control.  For instance, endless story games are fine, but endless story games that become filled with sexual references and posts that either don't follow the story or attempt to end it will be closed down.

All you really have to do is use the same common sense you've been using all along to both create and post in game threads.

Happy gaming. :D

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

I actually don't mind it, as long as there are no more than 2 forum games on one page, otherwise, heads will roll.

With the new rules in place, it shouldn't be as bad as it used to be.

Assuming people actually follow them, that is. Let's hope for the best.

At least this shows that mods and admins are willing to alter/add/change rules of the forums!
