Forum Rules

« on: February 12 2006, 05:37 AM »

Here are the rules every member of this forum has to know and follow. I'm asking everyone to take a few minutes to read the whole page. I know it's long but if you want to help keep this place a nice and fun community, the first thing you have to do is read and understand the rules described on the following page:

http://www.capturedwings.net/forums/board-rules.html

Feel free to post any questions regarding the rules on this topic. Thank you for the cooperation. Smile

Though this isn't directly regarding the rules themselves, wouldn't it make sense to make this link part of the tools at the top near "profle" and "calendar" and those buttons, so that members could easily spot it?

And of course, I'll do my best to follow them to the letter. ^_^

I'm probably 5 of those views. If somebody doesn't follow the rules and say they didn't know about, they have only themselves to blame Wink

Just wondering... when does a discussion classify as 'political'? I know what it can lead to if you start a topic asking what people vote for and why, but it is allowed to, say, discuss big world events? I just think 'political' is a very floating term...

The definition of 'political discussion' is that which covers talk about world and national political conversations. We really don't want people here starting debates on how the president is running or ruining the country or why people agree or disagree on foreign policies set by their government. The administration feels those type of discussions have no place here in CapturedWings.

Now asking about who voted for a new icon, banner or any similar thing thiat is associated with forum business...that's allowed (though I seldom reveal who I voted for: votes are a sacred ritual to me...)

2. Do Not Impersonate
Impersonating any of the CapturedWings Forum staff, the CLAMP women, or any other member is strictly prohibited.

What's not to understand? Seems self explanatory to me. I'd really hate if someone started using a name of someone already here. It can happen...I've seen it in other forums and it's usually not a pretty thing. They'd use a variation of a name of somebody already here nad cause mischief, thus ruining that person's reputation.

It's a rarity but it can happen, which is why the rule was added.

About "Political discussions":

We will allow discussions regarding current events as long as it doesn't center on government issues. For example, a topic about the Indian Ocean tsunami is just fine but a discussion like America vs. Middle East is not permitted.

Thank you to those who have already read the rules page. Smile

I read the rules and I completely agree with them. I only have a little question

Is it posible for you to write in another language in the forums, even if you write a translation?

For example:

Hola!! How are you guys doing?

Translation: hola¨¨hello

Reflected behind my closed eyelids is a sweet field. Dauntless, I embrace you lovingly. I am together with you.

Out of love, I forge a pact with you. Like a breath, the wind will envelop you. You and I will be together wherever we go.

The heart of red will be enfolded in wind and forge the contract.

Pretty wanted to know why the rule is there and not the actual rule itself. OY!

Much is what you said...appearances purposes. Using a whole mess of them really doesn't say much about a post, especially those who are really happy about something and instead of saying that decides to print out tons of emoticons...tacky.

With that said, not knowing if it's possible here, in a few forums, they have placed a program that allows for no more than 3-5 emoticons per post. That may be a solution to that rule if it can be done.
