General Rules
All of the following rules apply to any guests/members on LOAS. You will be expected to follow these rules. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action. Please remember that the Staff of LOAS will be paying close attention to all of these rules and any violations of them.
Toward Members and Staff
The Admins and Mods are here to make this forum safe for everyone on it. Please don't argue with them. It's okay to agree to disagree, just don't argue.
If you need any help or if you have a suggestion don't be afraid to tell a staff member.
If your having problems with a member or a staff member PM me, and I'll talk to them (if necessary I will take action), if its me you have a problem with you can do one of three things A) PM another staff member and they'll talk to me, B) you can avoid me, C) We can talk about it like adults
Please be courteous. If your joking state so because there are people who take things seriously
No harassing, do not try to annoy people on this site into doing something that you want them to do against their will, we happen to take this very seriously and you can easily get into a lot of trouble here for that.
Topics/Threads/Subjects/Boards/Posting
NO SPAMMING! Do not waste posts by spamming, all posts must be at least ten words or more…or at least of some significant
Please keep all your posts in their related areas. I hate to find things that don't go at all with what we're talking about. I'll move it if you don't but if you continue I'll disable your account for a few days.
Check the threads already in a board before you post your own. You never know if a discussion has already been started about it.
Also, if all you have to say is, "I agree," or "me, too", and you can't add anything else to your post, then we would rather that you didn't post at all. Try to actually put something to continue the conversation
No Flame Wars, please refrain from any form of flame war while you are here. If you do get into an argument please use PMs, not the board or the Cbox.
Porn/Drugs, no promoting pornography or drugs. First offense is an instant ban.
Swearing, there can be some swearing, but don't go off cussing like a sailor.
The Cbox is not a toy, true it’s a chat device that is on this site but do not use it to harass member into doing something or use it to spam.
No double posting, this means don't reply to a thread you just replied to. If you need to add something, use the modify button.
The only time double posting will be allowed is if your stuck in the RP area somewhere, and the people your posting with haevn't been seen, other than that NO.
All Federal laws apply here as well as the Proboards TOS.
Keep a mannerly conduct while on the site all times. Should something get out of hand or rude behavior not civil enough to take place on the board and we the staff are forced to step in then you will receive a warning. Should you receive up to four warnings you will be banned no ifs, ands, or buts,
Please keep religion and politics at home and not on this message board those kinds of discussions generally turn out to be arguments or someone leaving the site. IF any religion is brought up on the site it should be by the character in a character post and should be addressing another character in that same thread
Being polite, if you do not have something nice to say about someone’s idea’s or thought about a topic then please do not post them.
No Put Downs, to not post anything bad about someone from another site here. Not only does that violate the rule above but it can also get you banned.
When posing be sure not to spam or just post for the sake of posting. When Role playing you must post at least 300 characters minimum and please use detail in your posts.
Plagiarizing, We will not have any form of plagiarism on this site. If you post something from another site you must give either the authors name or the site url that you got the information from at the bottom of the site post. Should you do plagiarize be sure to note that is against the law and upon the second offense we will ban you.
Other
Please do not create other accounts. If you share a computer just say so.
If you do not post for a month, without saying anything to a staff member then it will be believed that you are no longer dedicated to the site and you give your account will be deleted. You can easily rejoin later.
Feel free to make an introduction post in the Newbie Introductions board. Members will greet you there, and make you feel welcome.
No racial slurs
It is ok to curse, but try to keep the fourm clean, I don't want to see any sailor talk.
Keep your user-name the same as your main character's name. I don't mind that you have more than one character but this makes it easier on me and the staff.
