- Be supportive (otherwise, do not post at all)
- No off-topic discussions (we will warn you twice instead of once)

The violation system is quite standard:
- 1st degree violation of rules: Warning by editing, replying, and/or PM
- 2nd degree: 1 week ban
- 3rd degree : 2 week ban
- 4th degree: Permanent ban
* - immediate 2nd degree consequences(since we might already slide double-posting)
** - immediate 3rd degree consequences
*** - immediate 4th degree consequences
Courtesy Rule
In regards to posting, the courtesy rule is simply this: if you (politely) reply to a topic or another reply, you can ask them to look at their thread/site/whatever you want them to see.
If you have any questions/suggestions about these rules, reply here (or if it is locked for any reason, PM me or the mods).
