Forum Rules ~updated~

Forum Rules Are As Followed.

We here at Forum Makers feel our set of rules is not what you can not do.
but what all members can do.

#1 Members can use colors and bold text all they want. In Fact we encourage all members to be as creative as possible in there post.we here at Forum Makers feel like most forums that do not allow this is ridiculous and just plain silly. so feel free to use all colors bold text you want.

#3 Cap Locks. if your one that wants to write with cap locks on go right ahead and write with them.once again most forums do not allow this, so we will. if we feel someone is shouting or being disrespectful or rude to any members or staff.staff will take care of the problem.

#4 Spam. Spam/Advertise all you want.
How ever this will be done on the appropriate boards. if you are one that wants to advertise promote something all the time? be sure to place it in your signature. this way every time you post it will be in your Sig for all to see.NO spamming via pm. if we get complaints on someone spamming in members private messages then be prepared to have your pm privileges taken away for an undisclosed if not permanent amount of time.

#5 Off Topic. Who cares if things go a Lil off topic sometimes.One of the fun things about forums is you never know ware a certain post or thread can go or lead to.you can be talking about one thing and the whole thread switches up to another. so if things go off topic? COOL .lets have fun here. However depending how far off topic something goes in any given thread? staff will decide whether it is too far off and not relevant to it's thread/post.

#6 Word censoring. Well we were going to be a Lil flexible on this.i am one that has bin running forums for a very long time and always have forums ware the members are 21 years of age or older. so i never had a problem with a Lil foul language as long as it was not attacking or being racially suggestive/motivated. However.. since forum makers is more of a family friendly forum for all age groups. we will not allow and profanity. we encourage people with children families to come here together to get ideas and share what the can to create or make your forum better. so we can not allow other members to use profanity even if it was on a adult conversation level. so please use all appropriate language only

Now to sum everything that will not be allowed.
Anything that breaks Forumotions TOS will not be allowed.
now i was always one to ware it takes a awful lot for me to have to ban someone.
i like to be flexible and give members some breathing room. but anything that breaks forumotions TOS will not be tolerated and warnings and other punishments will be in order.
PLEASE BE SURE TO READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL FOURM TOS

ANYONE WHO THINKS THERE FUNNY AND POST SOMETHING PORNOGRAPHIC SUCH AS. IMAGES,LINKS LEADING TO IT OR OTHER? WILL BE BAN IMMEDIATELY. ONE STIKE AND YOUR HISTORY.

once again Forum Makers is kid friendly,family friendly and related forum for all.
We are a place for all ages and who ever wants to be here.

ANY DISCUSSIONS OR ANYTHING TO DO WITH SEXUALY SUGGESTIVE CONVERSATIONS OR PORNOGRAPHY WILL NO BE TOLERATED PERIOD

so that's it folks. were her to try to help,create,suggest what we can to make you forum a better place for you and your members. just be kind to each other help if you can and have fun. enjoy yourself here. forums are supposed to be fun. so lets bring back the fun in forums and forum making.

thank you and hope to see you all soon.

good job once again kirk and Darren.

rules sound good to me. I'll be sure to watch my french. i agree you cant have that for a family forum

oh yea ron you have not seen anything. my forums are a walk in the park compared some of the ridiculous rules people have. dont even get me started.. lol but hey that's what they want on there forums then fine.but i would never do that.forums are supposed to be fun, when you have a zillion rules then people members are left with not much to do at all and most just leave or never become active or involved.

so the biggest thing here is no porn and respect each other and follow the tos. TOS is a must everywhere. but all the other sill,stupid and pathetic rules others have.. yea hello.

THATS WHY ARE FORUMS KICK BUT AND THERES DONT.. HAHAHA LOL

dude i'll go over to a few places and show you some of the stuff.
and add to the list of what you can do here.. they really take the fun out of things and most dont even want to be bothered with places like that. and were talking silly rules that dont even have any importance or significance to them.. just stupid... lol

yup, silly rules are really annoying, I hate them!
Just when a moderator changes something they have to leave a message stateing what they changed, in a color

Added rule:
Spamming...what it is: unwanted useless message.
We will allow spam, HOWEVER if u over spam, you will incure warnings.
You hav a max of 10 warnings. you reach the number, you reach suspension.
3x warning = BANN,
note: users with multipul active accounts may be punished, However we may chose nto to punish you (we will typically ignore it..waste of staff time)

Back to warnings.
Depending on the severity of warning we will take approperate action. dont forget this
little spam through to medium size of spam = nothing
medium or above amount of spam = 1 warning HOWEVER if you do hefty spam in which require a long time to remove you may cop multipul warnings.
THE STAFF DO TALK ON THIS BOARD!
And some other little things will incure warnings, but highly unlikely.
But otherwise, Dont break the rules above in kirks post, nor in this one and ull be fine and dandy.

just to clarify what i mean by saying members can spam is.
if you have a website or anything that you want to promote you can but on it's proper board.
or you can add what ever you like in your signature. this way every time you post you can advertise what is in your sig. you can also have the links in there as well. how ever i don't want members spamming private messages. you can do it. but as soon as we get a complaint you will be notified not to do it anymore.

there are plenty of boards here to promote and place your links here.along with advertising what you want in your signature is plenty. so just post after all this is a forum post post post!post!post!
