The Rules
1. Keep thread topics appropriate for all ages.
2. Try not to spam post.
3. Other than that, post and promote whatever you want.
4. Be nice to people.
5. Try to treat people as you would like to be treated.
6. Do not post NSFW content on the site. Site admins have the right to remove this content and ban a member if we find it. The one exception to this rule is poetry and prose which MUST be rated 'M' in the four writing forums. If a site member does not rate their writing as 'M' but the piece contains mature content, the site admins have the right to remove it without notice. Please follow this rule. We take it very serious. You can however advertise and post as much NSFW writing as you want without marking it as NSFW in the site Discord chat server.
7. Do not post NSFW pictures anywhere on the site. Site admins have the right to remove this content and ban a member if we find it. You can however post NSFW images in the site Discord chat server.
8. Post all political, religious, and news topics in the forum set aside for this purpose. Do not post political, religious, or news topics in the main forums or they will be deleted by the site admins.
9. It is okay to post links to Patreon accounts, tip jars, and other fundraising campaigns that have to do with earning money for creative projects. You can also advertise personal fundraisers that are not related to raising funds for art projects. Feel free to post them on this board here. If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask.
10. Please take heated arguments to PMs and do not attack other site members in the threads. Threads with excessive arguing and negativity that continue to go in a bad direction after being moderated by a site admin will be locked and the people responsible will be issued warnings.
11. You are by no means entitled to break the rules for any reason other than inexperience.
12. A violation of any of these very simple rules will result in three warnings. If you continue to break the rules after you have been warned three times, then you will be banned. I feel that this is a fair course of action. But if you feel that you have been banned unfairly, always feel free to message me and we will try to work things out with all of the parties involved.
13. If you are promoting a mature story in the forum, you cannot put a link to the actual story, but you can put a link to your profile telling members to 'read all of your stories on your page' or something. That is the loophole to the site rule. Oh yeah, and story lists are okay. Just no DIRECT linking to the story.
14. Keep similar discussion topics in the same threads to avoid spamming or bandwagon posts which are both against the site rules.
