Rules enforcement !

[Cain]

I got to see today a newb asking Delphi-PG questions. You all know that he can't answer , nor can he explain to all new commers why he can't answer. So pls. edit their replys and inform them that our rules state that we can't ask the developers about EAW (except in official intevriews of course).

 

Thanks alot.

 

 

PS. I know our rules are unwritten - maybe we should start to writte them ?! What do you say ?

Probably would be a good idea. If we wanna keep the great relations we've got going, we should put up rules to not question developers. I know if i was him, i wouldn't wanna come back, if i knew like 10 ppl would ask questions, and try to hound out info. hmm how to word it delicatly..

 

Developers occasionaly will visit our site and give us fans feedback. Please refrain from asking them anything about the game, or the company. We want them to feel welcome.

If you can pls. start makeing the rules from our unwritten ones and we will mod them after you make a first version. Post them here first.

Rule #1, don't go off-topic

Rule #2, use good spelling, grammar, and common sense

 

Add on to it?

add as much as you can - even take some form SWR is Evaders lets you do that

 

EDIT : Remember to make them "idiot proof" in case we get some new members that can't fully get it ... who knows we need to be prepared.

lol, it's just a forum guys not a fuckin business heh.

i don't think people want to feel restricted. i agree with JI's 2 rules. but lets not go overboard here and make the ppl feel like they have no freedoms to do anything. and i sure as hell wouldn't sticky a *RULES* in the bar section or General discussion. cuz i gurantee you very few ppl will actually read them, let alone follow them.

 

the bar section is ment to go off topic, you shouldn't restrict what goes on in there regarding off topic rules. you won't see me enforcing off topic rules on those ppl in there...

 

the bar and here is where i make most of my post, i could care less what you do with the general discussion part of the forum

 

as for any additional rules, i do remember a few days back having to warn some guy to stop insulting other ppl and also saying if the guy can't post anything accurate and with good spelling, he shouldn't even post at all.

Marcus, Marcus .... you will never change - I hope the army will change you

[Zerogravity]

lol wtf, im going Air Force!!

 

the Air Force is for the people who are too smart for their own good and should not be given a weapon, rather a computer to do their work with.

 

the Army is about as opposite from the USAF as it gets :s

 

 

the USAF core values are

1. integrity first

2. service before self

3. excellence in all we do

 

idk wtf the Army's values are but it isn't what i just typed :\

but one thing i do know is that the US Army has been trying many months now to steal USAF recruits. no one in their right mind would join the Army if they were qualified for the USAF, seeing as the USAF catters towards the smarter ppl.

 

i also strongly believe that ppl should feel like they are free on the forums, because once you take away their freedoms. they stop coming back. your making a mistake if you start turning us mods into police that take away a person's liberties.

 

give the ppl what they want, not the other way around. cuz without them you have no forum, that's my thoughts on this.

The v1.0 of the rules i wrote up, to me doesn't seem like i'm taking away anyones freedoms, have a look. any suggestions?

[Ghostly_Substance]

very nice lol

[Zerogravity]

i find them acceptable

 

i wouldn't add anymore rules, they seem to cover all of the general stuff, and thanks for adding the bar in that rule, it clears up every problem i have with that off topic rule

Ok cool, just need a thumbs up from Cain so we can post em.

[Foshjedi2004]

I give you a big thumbs up

[Cain]

Ok cool, just need a thumbs up from Cain so we can post em.

 

make a full post&topic here in the Maw first so we will only need to move the topic after.

[Joshinator]

Does anyone else think that HarkDawg's Gif image thing is a bit inapropreate for this site? I mean it's funny, but this is a site for all ages. I asked him once already to take it down. I was just wondering what u guys thought.

[Foshjedi2004]

I have PMd him about it but I think that some "enforcement" is needed. Cain can you remove it yourself?

[Ghostly_Substance]

I also told him to nicely and still nothing

[Siddus]

I'll edit the rules post in the welcome office by adding new lines about signature and avatars.
