Here are some simple rules that you should follow, unless you want to really get banned forever. Read these closely and remember to put these rules to good use:
For everyone, including guests, members, and Admins/mods: (Punishment rules will be located on the bottom of this page.)
* = Important
** = Very important.
***= MUST READ!
1. ** Spamming is prohibited. Spamming is just as bad as pouring garbage into someone’s room; it’s useless, makes things look messy and really smells.
2. * Don’t curse, although there’s already a curse block, please refrain from using profanity. You may use substitute words like: Freaking, idiot, moron, fudge, crud, stuff you, son of a gun… etc. (If you break this rule, you will not be warned because I curse too.)
3. ** Please keep your off-topic conversation in Crazy Talk, if you do happen to suddenly get out of topic, please try to get back on it. If you MUST Get off topic, or just happened to stumble into a situation where you just can not resist (its ok because I do that too), put your off-topic conversation separately, with a [ TEXT ] or ( TEXT ) or just about anything to signify the difference between the conversation and YOUR conversation.
4. ** Please, if you wish to insult a board or topic, don't do it. For example: If you're on the RxR board and start saying you hate the couple and they will never work out, you will get warned and depending on how insulting it is, you might even get punished without warning.
5. *** This one is very common and only applies for fanarts and fanfiction and role-play section: Stay on topic in fanarts, fanfictions and role-play category. If you must get off topic, please keep it within one or two threads per category.
6. *** Please refrain from cybering, public show of affection is allowed but if you begin getting out of hand, you will be notified and hopefully, you'll stop on the first offense.
7. * All threads in a usually active category that have been inactive for 1 month will be locked unless requested to re-opened. If they are not requested to be re-opened and depending on it's importance, it will be removed 2 weeks after being locked. If I find that the conversation has already finished and discussion and turned into spamming or off topic talking, it also will be locked. (People who get off topic in a dead thread will not be warned.)
8. * Off of topic threads will be moved to their proper location, followed by a warning from me or one of the admins/mods. All existing off-topic threads will be moved without warnings
9. ** Do not insult each other, especially one of the Mods or Admins (You need to remember that we have authority so we can warn you or reduce your karma points by a lot). I see a lot of kidding around, that's ok but if it becomes something where we are actually ready to pounce at each other and we're at each other's necks, that’s out of hand. If I find you people doing THAT, there will be punishment.
10. *** Pictures in your signatures cannot exceed the size of the screen, if the page as to be elongated, then you will get a warning for each post you have after the first warning.
This is the size it cannot exceed:
If you have several different pictures that add up to more than 750 pixels long, you will have to make 2 rows instead of one long one. Signatures, regardless of how many pictures or words you have, must be 750 pixels long or less. If I feel that the width is too long, I will tell you, the next post you make after I TELL you, it will become a warn.
11. *** Respect each other's opinions. I mean, you can oppose it by stating how it's wrong or something. You can debate but if it comes to something like:
"IT’S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN! THE END!"
Then that's just being harsh. I see this a lot, mainly towards RxR shippers, and as a RxR shipper myself, I think it's only reasonable to warn anyone who insults someone through insulting the ship. Any bashing of couples on the forum is illegal!
12. ** Any sign of public argument or commotion for more than 2 pages will become illegal; the next person to argue on the 3rd page will get warned, along with everyone else involved (unless you were trying to resolve the problem). If you have a problem with me warning you after the fight, you can reason with me and MAYBE I’ll take away the warning.
13. *** Keep the subjects, even in Crazy Talk, under R rated topics. I’ve seen topics on masturbation, and half of the members are barely 13.
14. *** If you wish to SPOIL someone about an upcoming episode, either warn them by making a section only for spoilers, or not give it at all. If you're going to make a subject with spoilers in it, mention that in the title or first post. Any type of spoiling will result in deletion of post (or cloaking) and a warning.
15. * Don't double, triple or post multiple posts in a row. That's why you have an EDIT button, so you don't have to post 4 times in a row. It's really spammy. The only place you can do that is in Crazy Talk.
16. *** If you must make a forum, please, I advise you not to advertise it amongst my hard earned members. Advertise it on other websites, like Fanfiction.net, Deviantart, and Myspace. If you take any of my ideas, say, copy and paste my rules or the "helps" board, or took my original names for boards, Ex. Crazy Talk, or anything that I would consider, stealing from my website, and I find out about it, you will be banned without any warnings at all. Hopefully, if you did make a forum, make it about something other than Teen Titans, ex. RoseSlade made a Kingdom Hearts Forum: khlover.proboards42.com/index.cgi , and did not steal anything from me at all. (good job RS).
If it necessarily is Teen Titans in general, make it different from mine, and don't steal, it's not fun to find my hard work on someone else's page after I spent 5 hours on it and they only took 5 seconds to copy and paste. Hopefully, you'll make a RxR forum or something else, anything but a Teen Titans (overall) forum. And beware, I have spies all around, so I can find out if you've been copying and advertising.
And remember, I am not taking your free will away from you, you can make all the forums in the world, as long as you don't copy my work and/or members. If you really like my work, you MUST ask permission first.
*** For Admins/Mods only:
You must ask me before:
a. Banning someone or yourself.
b. Deleting a thread, unless you feel that it is completely necessary to the site's reputation.
c. Creating any visible change to the site which means: Creating a board, creating a category, changing smilies, changing icons, changing background, changing color, etc.
d. Admins and Mods, you guys are the enforcers of the rules here, if you're seen doing what I told members not to do, you're setting a terrible example, and if you can, inform me of any offenses.
e. You may not modify any other member's message for you're own liking, because that's just muting what the person is saying and twisting them another way. If I see you modifying another member's reply for other purposes other than fixing spelling, adding something underneath their message, with a signature from you, and other things that would HELP the message, not change it entirely, I will not hold back on warning you.
f. I know that you can still reply to posts after the board is locked, but I don't want that, so don't.

Punishment Rules:
Each warning you get will not only bring you one closer for a disabled account, but it will also decrease your karma by one or more depending on the offense. When your account gets disabled, your karma points will reduce by 5 more.
If your karma points have to be reduced by 8, you will forever be banned.
Example (this is how it'll be like):
If you have 5 karma points already...
- Reduce 3 for 3 warnings, leaves you with 2.
- Reduce 5 for disabled account, leaves you with -3.
- Will also be banned or have account disabled for a time.
If you can behave and ask nicely to come back, I will let you come back under some circumstances, depending on how serious your offenses were. After that, you will only have one warning before you get kicked for life!
----
Remember, none of you have to experience all this punishment, so stay out of trouble.
Thank you,
