Now that these forums have gone full-fledged, I want to lay down a firm set of rules. These are subject to change at any time.
01. Do Not SPAM. If you don't know, SPAM stands for Stupid, Pointless, Annoying Messages. SPAM is classified as posts that are made up of less than four words (unless with good reason) or simply smilies, posts which have nothing to do with the current topic, posts which make no sense, a double post (posting twice in a row, use the Edit feature if necessary), and so on. Excessive SPAMming will label you as SPAM - Stupid, Pointless, Annoying Member - and lead you down the path to being banned.
02. Do not disrespect the Mods or Admin if they correct you. They do their jobs to keep this place nice. If they delete a post or lock a thread of yours, then it was probably for good reason. If you feel unjustly treated by a Mod, contact the Admin, fab. If you feel unjustly treated by the Admin, tough luck.
03. If someone SPAMs, you can point it out to them in your next post, but do not post ONLY to tell them they SPAMmed or you will be guilty of SPAM as well.
04. Before you post a new topic, make sure the same or a similar topic does not already exist.
05. Do not Bump Topics. This means posting in a topic just so that it will jump up to the top of the list and get more attention.
06. Do not just reply with "Yes, I agree" or "No, I disagree". Explain yourself, tell why you agree or don't agree.
07. No swearing or cussing. A slip up here and there is tolerable, so long as it's not directed at another member of these forums.
08. No "mature" talk. Mega Man Legends is a fun filled, light hearted world, and it is popular with younger people. No sexually explicit discussion here.
09. Follow these rules, and be wary of any additional rules which may apply to a particular section of the forums.
10. Now that you know what to do and what not to do, have fun, and please start off with an introduction post. Members who go with "0" posts for a lengthy amount of time will simply be removed.
