1. Be respectful of other people and their opinions.

2. Do not harass Users, or encourage others to do so, as this will result in an automatic warning.

3. Do not discriminate or attempt to demean anyone on the basis of age, disability, gender reassignment, marriage/civil partnership, pregnancy, race, religious beliefs, sex and sexual orientation.
Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia and religious bigotry of any kind will not be tolerated.
This includes in usernames, avatars and signatures.

4. No politics. Avoid referencing political figures, parties, movements and systems of governance, regardless of intent. This extends to posting about ongoing global conflicts.

5. Do not spam, use the proper sub-forums. No double-posting.

6. No Piracy linking on discussion threads. This does not include the Repo section.

7. NSFW imagery and discussion is forbidden (this means pornography and extreme violence/gore). This includes the overt sexualisation of characters marketed towards children. Any visual representation of explicit nudity is subject to deletion, regardless of context, and will result in a warning.

8. No requests for money, donations, or financial assistance from others.

9. Mental health and crisis posts: Whilst we care about everyone's well-being, this forum is not equipped to provide crisis support. If you or someone else is feeling overwhelmed or thinking about suicide, please reach out to a mental health professional or crisis service in your country immediately. Posts expressing suicidal intent may be removed and the poster directed to the appropriate help.

In general just be nice and you'll be fine.

Signatures: Max size 750px by 150px (You can make it smaller but not larger than that).

Warning system: "3 strikes policy":​

  • In cases of blatant disregard for the rules the staff may issue 1 warning point.
  • Warnings expire after 15 days.
  • If 3 non-expired warnings are accumulated the user will be in Reader Mode.
  • If you have been warned you'll receive a DM detailing what was the cause of it.
  • Warnings appear in your profile:
    warning2.png
  • In Reader Mode you cannot post, but you have full access to the forums and repo.
  • Once enough warnings expire for you to have less than 3 active ones, you'll be able to post again automatically, if that doesn't happen please relog.

Rules about sexual content​

Any visual representation of explicit nudity is subject to deletion, regardless of context, and will result in a warning.

Rules about non-explicit sexual content:
Content that is sexual for the sake of being sexual will be considered deletable, even if it does not contain explicit nudity.

However, the context of the content is important.
If the questionable content is relevant and acceptable within the thread's context, it will not be deleted.

Normally, this type of deletion would not be accompanied by a warning. However, repeatedly posting deletable content may result in a warning.

By "content", we refer to anything a user can post, including text, images, videos, audio, attachments, spoiler tags, etc.
