FFRM Rules and Guidelines
by Becca Nighteon Tue Dec 16, 2014 6:12 pm
FusionFall Rewritten Minecraft Global Rules:
Spam:
Stands for Stupid Pointless Annoying Material/Message and includes (but is not limited to) all actions illustrated in the list below:
Picture Replies/YouTube Video Replies: Replying to a post by posting only a picture or Video that you consider funny is disrespectful, annoying and considered spam. It falls under the moderators' discretion to also classify it as 'trolling' and treat it appropriately.
Personal Problems Threads: If you have a problem with a fellow member you should solve it by using an instant messenger or, if that is not possible, then use the visitor and private messages. There is no reason for all members to take part in your problems.
Threads about other members: As in: 'Who is the worst moderator' are considered both spam and flaming and will be treated as such.
Bugging: Towards showing respect to moderators' private time, asking questions like: "pls pls pls pls approve my bio" and "chheeeeeek my customssssss!!!!" (x100), are prohibited effective immediately. Every question like this on Visitor Messages, Private Messages or posts will be considered spam, and will be treated as such by being totally ignored and deleted immediately, or if repeated, will receive Warnings or Infractions.
Multi-posting: Posting one post after another in any thread is not allowed. This means making a new post directly below another post of yours (double/triple/multi-posting) will be considered spamming and will be thus treated.
Ban-Threads: Creating threads asking why a member is banned is not allowed, even if it is about yourself. When a ban is given a PM is also sent automatically to the member who committed the offense where the reason for the ban is explained. NB's staff have no obligation whatsoever to explain to any other member the reason of the ban and it is our wish that the reason would remain private anyway. However, if you think you have been unjustifiably banned you can contact one of the administrators; this you can do only after you have read our Global Rules and you are absolutely sure you haven't broken any of them.
Bashing:
Is to engage in harsh, accusatory and/or threatening criticism directed to any member of the forum.
Trolling: Trolling is a stupid and annoying behavior on the forum which significantly increases the world load of the staff and tests our tolerance towards the offenders. From this point and on, special actions will be taken to ensure that members who partake in such behavior learn to abide by our rules or stay away from FFRM. The administrators have the right to ban members from the community if they feel that they are a threat to the forum.
Character Bashing: Members who resort to ‘character bashing’ as their persistent topic of discussion will be treated under the same conditions as trolls. Character bashing refers to a topic of discussion whereby a member decides to make fun of certain characters/character pairings leading to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking. Members who continually partake in such behavior may have account restrictions applied to them including infractions and bans.
Bullying: Is to treat another member in an overbearing or intimidating manner. Such action is strictly forbidden and will not be tolerated. If you feel that someone is bullying you or harassing you in any way you should report it to an admin or global moderator immediately.
Troll threads: Troll threads are threads made usually to troll a member or a site. These threads are not allowed on FFRM under any circumstances. If you come across a troll thread there is no need to post in it- it is better if you just report it using the report button located on the bottom left corner of every post. This will immediately notify all the staff members and the problematic thread will be removed as soon as possible.
Insults: Any type of insult directed from one member to another member. Please remember that there is a big difference between "criticism" and "insulting".
Homosexual Slurs: Any type of homosexual slur directed from one member to another member, whether it'd be false claims that the member being flamed is a homosexual, or mocking a homosexual member for their sexual preference.
Sexual Slurs: Any type of sexual slur directed from one member to another member, whether it'd be describing explicit sexual behaviors involving the member being flamed, or typing sexually explicit slurs using the likeness of the member being flamed.
Racial Slurs: Any type of slur directed from one member to another member or ethnic background insulting a specific ethnic background. This is the internet. Be careful of what you post since even if your intentions aren't racist, they can still be perceived that way and will be dealt with in accordance.
Advertising:
Advertising is when a member displays a link to a Web site not associated with FusionFall Rewritten Minecraft with the intent to draw visitors of FFRM to their Web site.
Advertising is not allowed on FFRM no matter how it is done; Posting a thread, making a post, using a link at your signature or advertise through visitor or private messages a web site or forum not associated with FFRM, but based on manga or anime, is considered advertising and it will be treated with no tolerance at all.
Advertising yourself: is also not allowed. Advertising yourself includes actions such as making threads 'I am back!' or 'I am leaving', consistently asking other members to check your GFX work or when a member links (inside or outside of FFRM) to get more votes for any kind of contests. It falls under the moderators' discretion as to which link is considered advertising or not.
Images: Signatures, Avatars, Profile Pictures, Pictures posted in threads as well as Youtube videos are subject to the same rules as posts, so, if something is not acceptable to post, then it is not acceptable for a signature. In this case, a moderator will ask you to change or delete your inappropriate image; please do so immediately. Failure to do so will result in your signature being deleted. A repeat offense usually results in an account ban!
Adult Material: Anything that contains explicit adult material or illegal activities is strictly prohibited; remember this is a family forum and not a place for such actions. Linking to websites with such content is also not allowed. Posting such material are grounds for a temporary to permanent ban, subject to the severity of the offense and discretion of the moderators.
Interaction with the Staff: We are here to fix problems & make sure that the forum runs
smoothly. We also welcome plausible and realistic suggestions. Spamming us with questions that we have already answered and created sticky threads for or bullying us by sending 10 messages for a simple thing you want in the forum is considered disrespectful and spam.
Advice:
Report: Use the Report button if you see a problematic message or post. Don't try to solve the problem alone and don't flame back if someone has flamed you. The staff will take care of it as soon as you report it.
Signature size: Please be mindful of the size of your signature. We have personally allowed any size of signatures however if taken for granted or multiple huge signatures are used to a consistent extent, we will enrule a signature restriction. So don't push it.
Profile: Pictures and text used in the designing of your profile are subject to the same rules as posts and threads. Therefore, no nudity and no swearing is permitted.
Autoplay Videos: Do not place a video that autoplays in your signature or profile intro and do not post one in any thread.
Remember, this is a forum for people of all ages, so please be considerate to everyone and abide by the rules.
