Respect each other.
This rule is taken extremely seriously in Blue and we not allow anyone {including staff} to get away with insulting a fellow forum member. When we mean respect, we mean respecting each others' beliefs, gender, religion, sexuality and so forth. Saying things like “That’s what gay people do” or “I hate that religion. It’s stupid” will get you into serious trouble. You are also not allowed to say statements/opinions {unless being debated respectively in a topic} like “Mentally challenged people are so retarded” or “You’re a retard” offend the disabled/different and will be taken with serious measures.
Seriously, think before you post.
Only one account permitted per member.
Here on the Blue, we do not allow multiple accounts. Once you’re banned, you are done on Blue.
No Double-Posting.
We will not allow Double Posting. Not only is this one of spamming, but dude; you’re allowed to edit you’re previous post. Unless you’re computer/device/laptop or whatever accidentally doubled posted on a topic or the forum, than that’s fine. Do not double post unless you have permission or did it on accident.
No Spamming.
Do not make a post that has no discussion value, seriously. Not only is it annoying, but it will get you into some trouble too.
No textng speeking or TYPING IN ALL CAPS.
On Blue, the staff will not allow this. Text speaking every once in awhile;
“lol u are so funny”
Or typing a word in all caps
“See, I KNEW what was going on between them!”
Is fine. But not text speaking the whole sentence or typing in caps. Do it reguarly and you are sure to get a warning or be banned.
Do not post artwork, graphics, screen shots or writings that were not made by you.
This is called stealing and we are sure as heck are not going to permit this. Unless you have permission, do not do it. The member assumes all responsibility for posting that certain image or whatever.
No posting Disturbing images or videos.
This is another thing we take seriously. We don’t mind if you do it every once in awhile for giggles and laughs {as long as it doesn’t it doesn’t show anything sexual or of the sort} but we will not be allowing porn, anything sexual or disturbing.
No cussing at other members and staff.
Cussing is allowed. But keep it reasonable, don’t abuse it and don’t aim it at other members or the staff. The staff want to be the ones feared, not the other way around. So breaking this rule will result in warnings and possible suspension. M’kay?
You cannot post just to post.
This is one of the ways of spamming. If a staff member catches anyone posting just to post, they will be warned and they will have their post count lowered.
You may have 2 banners in your signature, and each must not exceed 300 x 500 pixels.
This is to ensure that images in your signatures do not slow down the downloading of the forum and it is quite bothersome to see a load of images in your signature.
Rules are subject to change
After reading the rules you must post a oath that states that you have actually taken the time to read and understand the rules. Please do NOT post the oath the second you join. This is a big no-no and we will make you read the rules again and again. Lying will not be tolerated when it comes to the rules.
Please copy/paste the following;
I, {your username goes here}, have taken the time to read and understand the rules. I will bear the rules in mind when posting and if I am warned or reminded, I will go back and read the rules.
