So the BLF already has 11 rules set by Badspot:
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=2856.0Breaking these rules will result in your post or topic being edited or deleted, or may get the user banned for any amount of time, ranging from a few days to permanently. (Edited by
Night Fox)
However, there are rules that DO NOT violate the Forum Rules, but are considered dishonorable. So I decided to create the community-created rules that list the actions that are highly discouraged on the forums (which won't necessarily get the users banned since they're not Badspots rules)
The Blockland Forums Community Tips on How to Not Get Flamed (Title suggested by
Count)
1. Do not overuse emotes. The emotes below are ordered from the worst to least worst when they are spammed.
2. Do not make the font excessively big.
3. Do not ask where you can get aimbot/hack.
4. Do not bump old posts.
- This rule does not apply if it was a legitimate question that was accidentally pushed to the next page by an overflow of other posts. (Suggested by Alyx Vance)
- This rule does apply if it was a stupid drama thread or a clan that nobody signed up. If it was ignored, it wasn't interesting.
5. Do not leetspeak/handicaptype unless it is necessary.
- If you are not sure if it's necessary, it probably isn't.
6. Be careful when mentioning other block-based games.
- Do not claim that Blockland is a ripoff of Minecraft/Roblox.
- Everybody is entitled to their own opinions. Do not, however, praise Roblox over Blockland with the sole purpose of making the community bad.
7. Do not be discriminatory towards a user because of his/her ID (Suggested by
King of the Bill)
- Feel free to expect noobishness from the new users.
- When a new user breaks your expectations and bests you, do not just cling stubbornly to a blanket argument.
- Do not refer to ID discrimination as ID racism (Suggested by Kalphiter)
8. Do not make exact copies of other threads. (Suggested by
Cassord)
- This does not apply to threads that are too old to post in. (Suggested by dargereldren)
If you have any suggestions, post it!
If it's a rule: Post the rule you want to be added. Make sure to put a link to a
Precedent.
If you want to edit the existing rules: Tell me what's wrong with proper reasons. I will fix it.
These rules are here not just to prevent any future trolls, but also to warn the new forumers about the generally accepted rules among the forumers that are not on the original rules list. With this, they do not need to have their reputation destroyed on their first day on the forums.
