Hello everyone, and welcome to the Drastic board of the AMAW Forums. For those of you who don't know, Drastic is my Scryed fansite, and it can be found at i.domaindlx.com/scryed.
Anyway, there are a few rules I'd like to have everyone follow here:
1-No Spamming. There's a separate board for that, if you're desperate to do so.
2-On Link Posting: I will allow you to post the URL to your site once, and only once, if you have a specific request for something (i.e. your forum needs members, you need fanart, whatever) and you check with me first (usually I'll approve it). It must be a Scryed site or contain Scryed content, as well. After you post it, you're free to bump your thread up once daily. If you are only looking for visitors, I ask that you please keep your plugging in your signature. Image links, banenrs, etc. are allowed in signatures, and the more you post, the more people will see it.
3-On Bumping: You may bump each thread once, and only once, a day. If someone has already bumped a thread that day, however, you may not. Consider it a gift that I'm even allowing you to bump, seeing as this board is so inactive that I doubt there'll ever be more than one or two pages of threads.
4-No Flaming: It's pointless, and it only causes tension and arguement
5-On Swearing: Mild profane language will be tolerated, but if you go on a profanity rampage, I'll have to do something. This is technically a PG-13 website, you know, and we'd like it to stay that way.
6-On Netspeak and L33t: Although I'm sure many of you want to use netspeak to type your messages faster, I'll have to ask you to refrain from using too much of it - too many abbreviations make things hard to understand and make you look somewhat stupid, too. And l33t is absolutely forbidden. Simply because half the time it's impossible to understand.
7-On Content: If you're posting images, articles, or fanfics (which we welcome and love, by the way), or just generally posting, please try and keep everything PG-13, PG-16 at most. Anything PG-13 or higher must have a rating label in the thread topic. Shounen and shoujo ai fanworks are allowed, but again, please post a warning in the subject line of the thread so that those who do not wish to view it know not to click. We'll be lenient with you for posting something questionable or inappropriate if there's a warning in the subject that it may be potentially offensive, but not so much so if you don't bother to say anything. So don't take your chances.
Under no circumstances will we allow any NC-17 material.
8-Please listen to the staff. Here, that's me. And for now, only me. If you have questions, feel free to PM me.
9-Try to stay on topic. If you're not on the topic of Scryed, then you're not on topic. There are other boards for other topics, you know. If your thread is too off topic, I'll be forced to move it elsewhere. Digressing slicghtly will be tolerated, as will joking around, but definitely no spamming.
10-Please be aware that anything you post on this forum is subject to being used on either Drastic or AMAW. Should we decide to use something, we will credit you as much as you give us opportunity to credit (i.e. if your email and URL are not visible, then please don't expect us to credit you by them...). But whatever you put on here is fair game for us to take, unless you specifically mention in that post (not just at the top of the thread, but in each individual message) that you do not want us to use it.
11-Please do not steal someone else's work - they worked hard on writing, drawing, or otherwise creating it, and it's just plain not fair if you come along and snatch it.
12-If you are in violation of these rules, I reserve the right to ban you from the forums.
