Official Forum Rules

First off, welcome to the Official Sentinels of the Multiverse forum! I hope you enjoy your time here.

Now, pay attention. The following are the rules for this establishment. Read them. Learn them. Obey them. In general, if you really have to question whether something will get you banned or suspended, it probably will. But more specifically:

1. Be respectful. This is probably one of the most important rules of this forum. Arguments and disagreements are totally acceptable, but keep it civil, folks.

2. Nothing illegal. Do not threaten anyone or say anything else that will result in anyone getting their doors kicked down by federal agents.

3. Stay relatively on topic. Small divergences are fine, but if posts completely derail a thread, they will be moved to appropriate area.

4. Obey the official Greater Than Games staff. Christopher, Adam, and Paul are the creators of this game. They're awesome, fun-loving guys, and they really just want people to enjoy their creation with them.

5. Obey WriterRyan, arenson9, Rabit, and any other other future moderators. We love the game, and we're really just here to have fun and keep things from getting too rowdy. However, if things do get out of hand, we'll enforce as need be. Punishment will be appropriate to the degree of the offense, and may comprise a warning, temporary suspension, or even a ban.

6. Keep cursing to a minimum. Ideally, we'd like to keep the board at a PG level. We won't necessarily be monitoring strictly for vulgarity, but note that if you choose to use it, we may alter or remove your post.

7. There is a zero tolerance policy for hate speech.  Hate speech is any communication that disparages a person or a group on the basis of some characteristic such as race, gender, ethnicity, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, or other characteristic.

8. Use some degree of at least relatively proper grammar. This is a forum: it would be nice for your posts to actually be comprehensible. We understand that English isn't necessarily everyone's first language or even utmost skill, but things like aLtErNaTiNg CaPs, ALL CAPS, exorbitant amounts of punctuation!!!!!!!!!!111, and 1337-5p34k have no home here.

9. No spamming of any kind. Links to off-site content will be evaluated on a case by case basis. We have zero tolerance for marketing attempts, so keep them out of here.

10. No explicit pictures. This includes nudity, graphic violence, and anything else that could possibly be considered explicit. We'll know it when we see it.

11. Report anything you feel is out of line or goes against the forum rules using by PMing a moderator. No one will know it was you except for the moderators.

12. No flaming or trolling. Don't do anything that crashes browsers intentionally; there is zero tolerance for this. And don't link to shock sites. We've all seen them; they're old hat now.

13. When you need a moderator to step in and handle issues, do it through the proper channels. Don't create a new thread or post in the current topic about it. Find us, and we'll take care of it.

14. Be respectful. We can't say this enough.

15. Have fun! Sentinels of the Multiverse is an exciting, new game, and we hope everyone can have as much fun talking about and playing it as we had creating it.

Official Forum Rules originally drafted by WriterRyan.  Thanks, Ryan!
