1a. Posting

On RPGMM's boards, you are free to post as you desire. Please refrain from posting questionable material. (This includes pornographic links/pictures, vulgar language, and anything else related)
Each forum has a description of what it is for. Please pay attention to these and try to post content in the correct place. (Makes our jobs easier)

1b. Privileges

Yes, there are special privileges for posting on the boards, including higher levels (see User Levels below), and potentially, receiving a special rank.

1c. Punishments

While you can earn privileges, if you do something wrong, you can earn a punishment as well. Listed below are ways you can be punished.

3 strikes = ban

Strike 1 = Warning for Ban
Strike 2 = Title removed/given laughable title (or even name)
Strike 3 = Full Ban. Length: Case-by-case basis

Bans may be appealed, but not all will be reversed.

Disobeying Mods/Admins = 1 strike each
Follow directions from the mods and admins. Now that wasn't hard, was it?

b*tching/Swearing at Mods/Admins = 1 strikes each
We don't go where you work and tell you how to flip burgers, so don't mess with us, ok? Now the b*tching part is based on what the Mod/Admin is willing to deal with, but swearing is something else (i.e. "@#%$ you, RPG!"). Try to NOT get on our bad side, you won't like it.

Edit:: This is what not to do.

Linking to vulgar sites = 1.5 strike each
I'm sure you won't do this one, right?

Side Note: Removing Strikes
If the offense is not too drastic, one (1) month after the incident takes place, all strikes will be removed. If the offense is drastic, it will take two (2) months to remove the strikes. If you are banned, when the time is up, we will try to email you about it, but we're busy people.
