Rules...

[Torankusu]

New rules, because I've seen a lot of this and I believe it can/should be stopped.


First off.
-Criticizing of playerworlds.
--Yes, it's okay to say you don't like a playerworld for certain reasons. For example:
"So and so:
I don't like SOANDSOPLAYERWORLD because the management is bad! I disagree with most of the things they do, etc, etc."
I will allow that, as long as it isn't like/doesn't include things like:
"ROFLOMGLMAO SOME ***** NAMED <name> JUST BANNED ME BECAUSE THEIR LEVELS SUCK LOL. I HATE THE PLAYERWORLD AND SUGGEST YOU NOT PLAY THERE."

I realize this is a forum to voice your opinions on playerworlds, just try to do it sensible. Each playerworld has their strengths and weaknesses, poinging them out and using them to insult one-another is not allowed either. (Things like that "FROLIC VS. Faheria" thread will not be allowed either. Please don't suggest playerworlds go private. It's not as easy as you think, considering you have to contact Stefan.)

Second.
-Ugh. I've seen A LOT of stupid messages (From !Joker, in particular) such as "o.O, , =D" and nothing else with them. Please. Don't post things like this randomly. Make them have a point.
"=D I like the way you're running your playerworld " is fine, or something like that, just not "=D" out of nowhere.

I'll post more rules when Jinx is back and we can think of anymore. The regular forum rules still apply.

I will leave this open for discussion, and new rule ideas/dislikes of the rules, as long as it doesn't get out of hand.

I completely agree with what your saying, Torankuso, but also, some critism can go to far as to make certain people completely quit the project their working on (yes i've seen it happen and it was because of me.), same thing with staff, if your going to critisize staff on forums where everyone on graal see's them, they're going to either flame or quit their job on the server they are currently working on.

I'm aware.

Discussing what you don't like is a good thing. It's a way to voice your opinion and possibly have it changed.

Don't take it to the level where you just start to incessantly flame another person because of his/her faults/playerworlds faults.

YAY im in the post though its only for "O.o" I knew that would pay off. Anyway, I never saw a FROLIC VS FAHERIA thread anywhere?

[Echos]

I think me and Torankusu need to make a world together, we think so much alike.

Here are some rules I would like to see enforced:

No posting messages aimed at playerworld owners, that could just as easily be sent to them as a private message. I'm tired of seeing posts like. "Hi <serverowner>, I just wanted to know if I was staff on your server." or "Hi <serverowner> when will your server be done?" Questions aimed directly at the playerworld owner, should be pmed.

Also, no harassment of playerworld development. Such as someone that hates your playerworld just comes into your "new screenshot" topic, and completely acts like an ass and says your stuff sucks just because they dislike you.

No more "Why is this playerworld down?" or "When will this playerworld be back up?" threads. Most of the time pw's go down because servers are being moved or something. I'm just tired of seeing 50 threads pop up in less than 12 hours because a few pw's disappear off the playerlist for a day.

That's all I can think of for now...

I agree with Konidias about everything, but instead of not allowing threads about server's being down, allow one thread to be post, and any other thread be deleted, and delete every flame in the post saying "good i hate that server" in the thread and that they're happy it's down. Or just simply post it yourself the reason why the server's down.

I'll just merge them, If I get my modship back.

Yes, it does.

But, in truth, my actions were a bit immature, but I must admit. It's the most damn fun I've had in the longest of times.

Still. I'd like to know what exactly it was.

This is bs, if Alkeran did remove you from modship, he has goin too far, i think Stefan should relive him of his duties...

[archaonTCN]

Torankusu should get modship back.

I am not going to eat or drink until he gets it back!

[Torankusu]

i still had fun.
