Title: <FONT color=#FF0000>The All of All Rules</FONT>
Post by: Robotam on April 08, 2006, 09:55:39 AM

Now, my friendly charas people, there's a new Rule topic in town.
The rules has changed a bit from when the earlier thread was made, not much but a little bit.

Updated for Moose

Most actions listed here will be punished like so:

1.Warning
2.Second Warning
3.3-Day Ban
4.10-Day Ban
5.Permanent Ban

Off-topic
Off-topic = When you start speaking of something unrelated to the topic's own subject. Posting something a little different from the topic is fine, and if the discussion changes within the thread, okay. The only trouble starts when you post something like "I LIKE CATS" in a thread about game making.


Flaming
Flaming is when you attack someone in a way that offends them, picking unnecessary fights by making fun of someone, for an example.
Flaming is spam because it's a stupid way to handle a situation. And mods as well as members should avoid flaming at all costs.


No Advertising
All kinds of advertising belongs in the Site Posting Thread. Advertising threads is considered spam and will therefore be locked.
You can also put in Advertising in your sig, which I highly recommend if you want everyone to see it. Ad threads are deleted and their owner PMed.


Topic kicks
A topic kick is when you post in an old topic. Generally, if you topic kick a few times, you are warned, but if you continue to kick after being warned, action will be taken.

Double posts and +
When someone posts multiple posts in a row he/she has broken this rule. If you forgot to say something in the reply you just posted you cannot post another one.
Double posting can be all right... If your thread is dying and you want to update it with new cool news so that everyone will notice it, I can allow you to double post. But in those cases only.


BMP images
This is something charas doesn't support. Why? Because compared to the usual ones: JPEG, PNG, Gif, it's is a huge image file and it wastes too much on charas bandwidth.
BMP is a bandwidth sucker, therefore we do not support it. Stick to the usual ones, PNG, Gif, JPEG.

Links to illegal downloads
This is NOT allowed. Why? Because these kinds of downloads can get charas into trouble. Feel free to talk about it, but whatever you do, NO LINKS to illegal downloads. RPGMaker downloads included.
What will I do if I see a link to illegal material downloading?
1 - Edit post

Racism and pornographic material
This extremely forbidden. Keep these kind of things to yourself, Charas is a peaceful and for mostly an unperverted site.
If this is to be discussed it CANNOT be discussed anywhere in charas. Not even in PMs.
What will I do if I see something like this?
1 - Edit post


Newbie Questions:

Q: Is posting an introducing thread in Test And Welcome compulsory?
A: No, of course not. It's entirely up to you if you want to introduce yourself.

Q: Am I allowed to post a link to my game downloads?
A: Yes. But please, keep it in the Games forum.

Q: Where is the Site Posting thread located?
A: It's one of the sticky topics in All of All. Scroll up in AoA and you'll easy find it.

Q: What does it take for someone to get banned?
A: Massive flaming, spamming, links to illegal material ect.

Q: If I break a rule, what will happen to me?
A: It depends on what rule you broke. But most likely we'll just give you a warning. No banning by just breaking one rule, no mather what rule it is.

Q: How do I get respected?
A: Be a nice guy, and stop complaining about you getting no attention.

Q: What is a bonk?
A: A bonk is a warning from a moderator. The difference between this and a PM is that a bonk is seen as soon as you do ANYTHING, and the sender isn't told - Bonks are mainly used in situations where a person may react even worse to a specific mod that they hate, or when a mod who is not a part of a certain forum wants to warn someone who posted on that board.

Q: Is there any way I can see what mods have done?
A: The log of moderator actions is right here (http://charas-project.net/forum/admin/0_control.html).







Here is a new rule from Gemini....October 2010
Dont reply to bot threads. A warning will follow. Potentially a 2 day ban, if you are absolutely dense and keep breaking this rule.
Kindly send a link of the thread in question to an admin, global moderator, or post it in the appropriate thread in the SITE NEWS board

This will do nicely. Now, all we need is to get people to read the rules more often...

Maybe what we can do, is make it so right after you register, it directs you to a new page with all the rules, and then in order to be directed to the next page, you have to click one of those "I accept the terms" boxes. Then, the next page will be a quiz for the important rules, and if they get a score below like, 70% or something, it redirects them to the rules page. Just an idea. :p

It's actually a perfect idea. Dunno if it's possible though. oo'

Excuse off-topic-ness.

Post by: Robotam on April 08, 2006, 07:27:29 PM

No one is the rules, this IS the rules whether anyone likes it or not.  And I'm hoping that you, too, will follow them.
And therefore, back on topic.

Post by: MrMister on April 08, 2006, 07:53:37 PM

Robotam. Joke.

Happy modding, hope you don't get struck by lightning while making out with a millionaire's slutty wife in an outdoor pool.

No, Razor is the rules.

No, Razor just rules.

Oh, you should take off that BMP thing. You can't attach them, it doesn't let you. And since using the IMG tag doesn't use Charas bandwidth, sort of a useless rule. BTW, PMs aren't IN All of All, now are they?

Title:
Post by: Robotam on April 08, 2006, 07:58:38 PM

I know you're joking. But the topic title is in red, there's not much room for jokes.

Title:
Post by: MrMister on April 08, 2006, 08:03:15 PM

Okey dokey mayne. No disrespect.

Q: If I break a rule, what will happen to me?
A: It depends on what rule you broke. But most likely we'll just give you a warning. No banning by just breaking one rule, no mather what rule it is.

If I remember right, newbies posting pornography have been banned.
Of course that isn't All of All busniess once it gets to that level, so don't worry about that.

Title:
Post by: Robotam on April 08, 2006, 08:08:40 PM

Just one picture or many? Massive pornography will probably lead to a ban. If it was just one image then I guess things has changed. I'm not the one who decides whether a member should be banned or not, but I think everyone deserves a second chance. And that's how I base my actions.

Okay. Have fun, man. That's important.

Is posting links to RM2K/3 language patches illegal?

just wondering...

Post by: Robotam on April 19, 2006, 05:47:09 AM

Well, yes. At least I think so. I'll have to ask Sai about that.

This is possible, another site I joined has something like that. Before you can post anything, they give you a page with all the rules and quiz you on it. If you get them wrong, then back to the rules page you go. Annoying, but easy to pass..dunno if charas could ever get that tho..

Genius.  Let's do it!

That would be a lovely idea, but ppl can easly copy it into wordpad and  cheat..also, it would have to go through Alex first and he would have to make it so..We could ask, as a matter of fact I'll ask him. ^^

Title:
Post by: ZeroKirbyX on April 19, 2006, 05:04:33 PM

But if you break a rule, you can't pull that "I didn't know!" crap. EVen if they cheat they still clicked that box and can be banned easily.

Title:
Post by: Midnight9795 on April 19, 2006, 05:11:50 PM

You can't exactly be banned for breaking a rule, depends on how serious the rule is. For if that was the case, there would be no members/mods/admins here because we all spam  :p

Quick mention: Quote Pyramids.

Quotes are a nice little feature so that you can bring something someone said a few posts above below, both to remind yourself and readers what was said and to give your reply context.

This means that you SHOULD NOT QUOTE THE POST DIRECTLY ABOVE YOURS. People can read it, it's shown in the recent posts thing, etc. If you still feel the urge to quote, shoot yourself in the face and try again.

Use your quotes right, and you might become a moderator someday! It worked for me!   ;)

Yes, not making quote pyramids was what it was

Quote Pyramids are in the Canadian equivalent of the Bill of Rights.
I have the right to make quote pyramid. For example,

It hurts me to see you like this MrMister. This is tearing us apart. There's gotta be a better way.

It's either mention an annoyance here or spend another hour or so in a chat bitching about how annoying it is to Sai and Mid for me. Thing is, now I can actually say it instead of havining to whine to Sai about how it should be mentioned.

Besides, Mid probably agrees with me, and she's a girl, so there you go.

Someone programmed their heart and soul in to that "bot", as you call it.  Don't diminish its achievement.  Oh, it was deleted.

Eh, ashes to etc.
