Max-off, he posted this before he necro'ed the thread that was a year old. He can no longer make the above statement.

and that was the sweet irony, of his post.
why did u had to explain it :eep:

Just added a small thing on swearing. Was pretty much common sense but we'll just put it out there anyway.

Bump, updated the Arcade rule (red line). Though the rules had originally been made to include exploitation of bugs and glitches, we would just like to clear things up if anyone was confused about what was considered has "hack" in this specific case.

Arcade Hacking

Recently, there have been a few incidents where members have "hacked" the arcade to obtain illegitimate scores. From now on, if any members are caught doing this, it will result in a one month ban from the arcade as well as an infraction. This includes the exploitation of bugs/glitches. Any methods used to obtain illegitimate scores is not allowed.

If you want to "test" out different methods to see whether it will work on FF Arcade, I'd recommend you to PM the Administrator (Entropy) or the moderators about this instead so we can look into the security issues, rather than going ahead to hack the games. Any hacked scores will also be removed.

Hacking games are not acceptable, and that goes for the Arcade too.

Bump, added rep comments and banning rule.

Please refer to this thread:

If you have any suggestions/questions/feedback. Thank you.

Added.

Added blacklisting rule.

Bump.

Just wanted to add that guides are no longer exempted from necroposting, since there isn't a point to allow the bumping of guides of the creator is no longer updating their guides frequently. Guides may be re-opened, however, if the creator wishes to start updating again. Please PM a moderator or administrator for this.

Since we have a lot of new members, I thought I would give this thread a bump. Also, please pay close attention to this rule

^^

We seem to have a lot of members necro-posting. It would be appreciated if dead threads are left dead. If it is an important enough topic for you, feel free to start another thread about the same topic in the appropriate section.

If you have any questions feel free to ask a mod, we are here to help.

Thanks!!!

Bump. Just made a slight addition to the plagiarism rule. Pretty obvious, but it applies to any forms of work including artworks, and not just narrowed to sigs/avs/guides.

Just a comment on the necroposting rule-- I registered here and one of my first posts was a comment on the first page of the forum.. yet the last reply to that topic was over a month old, and someone closed the topic because it had been 'revived'.

I'm not trying to tell you how to run your forum, but I don't think a topic that hasn't fallen off the first page is old enough to chastise your members over.

It is difficult to keep track what threads have been on the first page all the time, therefore it's better/more efficient for us to classify necros by the date of the last post. Sometimes it may be exempted if the post is a necessary contribution or the like, though it is often encouraged to start a new thread as people may be replying to older posts with inaccurate/different information and causing more confusion.

In the light of recent events, one policy has been slightly modified and another has been added.

^ Bolded bit is what's added ^

----------------------------

New rule.

Question:
So are we allowed to post conversations if the other person is obviously okay with it ? or are they off-limit altogether ?

From what the rule says, it's not off-limits to post MSN conversations. But the other person can ask for that conversation to be removed if he or she asks.

The best solution of course would be to think about what is being posted before it's posted.

Ah, Okay, thanks Ralath :3

Removed the swearing policy and added an offensive language one instead.

Hmm, "offensive" is a rather vague term.

Hmm, I'm going to add "inappropriate" too.

There seems to be more spammy posts lately, so we have updated our policies on spamming as a "reminder".
