Rule Proposal - Z3R0 - 03-04-2009
These are rules I want to propose for BZS since we apparently don't have any:
Rules for Blizzsector
1. No spamming, and don't needlessly flood by posting the same comment over and over, or putting heaps of smilies in a post. And this also means stay on topic when posting.
2. You must have 20 posts to advertise your site.
3. English ONLY in your posts.
4. No supplying false information to users. This is pretty self explanatory.
5. Illegal Content.
-Warez, serial codes, cracks, keygens, etc. will not be tolerated. Anything that is considered illegal will be taken very seriously. We reserve the right to contact your Internet Service Providers, or the authorities regarding any illegal content. Any of this content will be removed.
6. Follow any and all rules of a particular board if they are provided.
7. Be respectful of other members and staff.
--If a staff member asks you to stop then please do so.
8. Signature / Image Limits.
-You are limited to one (1) signature image only . Any image that distorts the forum page will be removed. BB Codes such as Skype Light, AIM Light, etc will not be considered an image. Please do not use any text in your signature larger than size 4.
Please use the [thumb] tags for any large image that may distort the thread.
--If you are questioning if your sig area is good or not look at the staff members sig area.
9. No ripping.
-If you are found to be a ripper you will be reported to the ARA(Anti Rip Association)
10. Excessive Profanity.
-Whether it be in an image, video, signature, banner, avatar or external link will be removed.
11. You can only lead/create one Social Group at a time.
12. Trolling / Fighting.
-Here at BZS, we do our best to keep this community as comfortable as possible. Anyone who deliberately tries to create a hostile environment outside of the Steam Room will be banned from the website. This includes starting flame wars(outside of the Steam Room). You must respect users' religion, race, gender, sexuality, etc.
13. Staff Problems.
-If you have any problems with a staff member, then we ask that you please PM an admin. Any thread/post aimed to directly attack a staff member will be removed.
14. Report Post Feature.
-If you see a post or a thread that violates the forum rules, or something that should be removed, then please use this feature to get the problem taken care of.
15. We reserve the right to update the rules at anytime, which will force you to accept the rules once again. If you're posting on the forums, then you've accepted and completely understand these rules.
Note: These rules are used as a guideline by staff members. You may be banned for something not specified in these rules. Members who know the rules, yet still break them may have there privileges to use the Message Boards withdrawn. Staff members reserve the right to refuse MB rights to members found to be repetitively breaking the rules or who are known rule breakers.
These rules are such and can be modified at any time without the consent of the member community.
Punishments for Rule-Breaking:
1st Offense - Verbal Warning
2nd/3rd Offense – Infraction(s)
4th Offense – MB Ban time; limit will be based on severity of offense(s)
Constant/Serious Offenses - MB Permanent ban/IP Ban
Chatbox Rules

2. No excessive caps.
3. No outside links. If its not on PR then link to it in a post in the proper place.
4. No spamming.
5. No images.
6. No flaming/arguing.

i agree with all the rules.
but how about gganting more leeway to long time posters like me or above? you cant just give them three tries and then ban them. it makes no sense for me.
Rule Proposal - wazzacky - 03-04-2009
Podemos hablar en espanol si queremos que! The language rule should be exempt since english is dominate anyways.
Rule Proposal - Warslut - 03-04-2009
I'm pretty sure most of those are general rules already in effect.
If you don't speak English you won't be around long anyhow because I don't think there's many people who would even be able to reply. No profanity is allowed anyhow unless it's in Steam Room as well...
Rule Proposal - Mathalamus - 03-04-2009
is it ok to swear in german?
Rule Proposal - Siris - 03-04-2009
Um, the language rule is retarted. Yes everyone speaks english here but to make it a rule? That's not right.
Rule Proposal - Mathalamus - 03-04-2009
one question... what is the anti rip association?
Rule Proposal - Blue - 03-04-2009
....
dont flame.
I wasn't, I was saying this was a stupid idea because much of the rules are overdoing it. And I used his rules to write my post obviously.
Rule Proposal - Mathalamus - 03-04-2009
hey my girlfriend is more strict. be thankful.
Rule Proposal - Ares - 03-04-2009
Actually Zero this is currently being discussed with the Mods, Admins.
But thanks
We will take your list and combine it with ours and see what we come up with.

I know it is; I've already talked with them about it and was asked to post it on the forums. As for the language rule....you eventually get people every now and then that don't like to post in English. Obviously you want to be able to read the posts. This goes hand in hand with legitamicy. Also, for the three strikes thing; why should anyone be given leniancy? You know the rules, and if you break the same rule repeatedly in a short time...it shows incentive that you are purposely breaking them, and need to be punished.

Aye. I don't think either have been on lately.
Rule Proposal - wazzacky - 03-06-2009
regardless zero (referring to language rule). They'd obviously know this is english based. I don't see why they would post in another language here anyways. I only do it for my own humor sometimes.

If everyone speaks English, then what is the big deal?
Mathalamus Wrote:one question... what is the anti rip association?
The Anti Rip Association(ARA) is a site me and a friend started for creating a blacklist of known art rippers.
Rule Proposal - Mathalamus - 03-06-2009
sorry but i need a legitimate government run institution for that rule to be respected. i doubt many people will respect a rule that you and some other person started.
besides i dont rip anything. unless taking music of CDs count.

Rule Proposal - Pamela - 03-06-2009
Posting in a language other then in english begins to become hard for most of us to understand.A few randomn posts are fine...but a drawn out conversation in French where nobody can interject will get your ass nailed by me for spam.

Yes, you have the right to post. No, you (and you too Zero) don't have the right to spam like you are here. This is a thread about the rules for our site, not a debate on whether or not Math is allowed to post. Jeesh. ~jedi
