Forum Terms & Rules
By reading this section, you acknowledge to follow all of the Forum Rules as specifically designated by the above link. If you intend to register on the forums, please follow the following guidelines:
1. NO CRAPPY USERNAMES.
If there's one thing that's going to annoy other people on the boards, as well as damage your credibility, it's a bland and uninspired username. Such usernames include generic Sonic references--not all are forbidden, however it is assumed that you will follow basic common sense when picking a name. Names such as "Super Ultra Metal Hyper Sonic 557639028163" are COMPLETELY unacceptable.
ANY ACCOUNTS WITH GENERIC, HORRIBLE USERNAMES WILL BE DELETED ON SIGHT, WITH VERY FEW EXCEPTIONS. IN ADDITION, THE IP THE ACCOUNT WAS REGISTERED WITH WILL BE BANNED. DON'T DO IT.
2. TYPE IN PROPER ENGLISH.
We're not HUGE grammar nazis (except Quickman), but it is expected that basic spelling and punctuation will be evident in all of your posts. If you type in all lowercase, use "txt talk" and other various incorrect English conventions, expect to be banned quick. It's not that much to ask, really.
3. YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE TECHNICALLY INCLINED TO BE A MEMBER.
This is a common misconception that, for some reason, most people tend to believe. Contribution is encouraged (and expected), but you can contribute your fair share to the community simply by participating in insightful, reasonable, and intelligent Sonic-based discussion.
4. THIS IS NOT A GENERIC, PRIMARILY OFF-TOPIC BOARD.
More specifically, if you're only coming here for the social aspects of the board (as in, you post in the Member's Lounge and nothing else ever), then we don't want you here. Go join one of the millions of communities in which people do absolutely nothing productive.
This is not to say, however, that off-topic discussion is forbidden. We're all real people, feel free to talk about whatever. Just don't abuse the privilege.
5. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO TAKE THE QUIZ TO EDIT THE WIKI.
Just saying. Feel like editing an article? Feel free. Likewise, you're not required to edit the wiki if you post on the forums (though it's certainly strongly encouraged).
6. WE'RE ELITIST. DEAL WITH IT.
We've seen tons of claims thrown about that this place isn't elitist like "the other communities." This is not true. However, our elitist policies are solely for the purpose of making this forum as productive and idiot-free as possible. Consider yourself smart? Feel free to join up and contribute your fair share. And, most of all...
7. HAVE FUN.
Or we'll cut your motherfucking throat. Word up.
If you agree to these simple terms, feel free to click that registration button below. Otherwise, go away please. Much love. <3 |
