Title: Guidelines and Etiquette for Forums [Updated 09/22/2004]
Post by: Particle on August 26, 2004 06:50 am CDT
Alright, I'm making a permanent post here concerning the guidelines I typically follow for editing content, banning, suspending, and posting.  I'll just post some quick sections with points to consider.  Nothing here is concrete (as in I reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time) and applies only to the normal members.  Moderators and administrators DO NOT have to necessarily follow these guides, as their duties are different and could possibly be used to contradict legitimate duties.

I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR A PERSON'S ACTIONS OR COVERSATIONS.  I reserve the right to moderate this forum at any level I see fit and will not be held responsible if I miss something or fail to act upon something.  By your posting here, you agree to be held 100% liable for your own actions and conversation.  Leave me out of it.

Rules For Posting
Violating these basic content guidelines will usually give me enough reason to edit your posts for you.  This does not mean you are free to post it in the first place.


Rules For Usage of Forums and/or Services
You people are intelligent, like it or not.  If you know an action you are about to do would be considered abuse, you are wise not to do it.



BANNINGS
ALL BANS ARE FINAL.  If you violate these terms and are banned, YOUR BAN should be treated as FINAL.  There is no second chance--my memory just isn't that good.  Once added to my list, you will not be removed short of God telling me to.  So, heed the warning and do not ever have a lapse of sanity.  Drunkenness, being high, incapacitated, your kitty walking on your keyboard, aliens, moving monoliths, terrorist outbreak, hostage forcing, bullet impacts, nuclear explosions, armageddon, notes from your mommy, decapitation, electrical short, electrocution, computer malfunction, program crash, enlightenment, epiphanies, passing out, fainting, wild horses, puberty, or anything else is no excuse.  Don't expect it to pass as one.

All headings are provided for convenience and may not be used to alter interpretation of these rules.  Use of any services available under the pcrpg.org domain indicates that YOU HAVE READ AND AGREE to these terms.  I reserve the right to change this document as I see fit at any time.

Personal Note:
If you have been using these forums in the past, you should understand this.  Nothing is really changing--I'm just putting it in writing.
