For a while now, there has been a pattern of forum members slacking off on self-censorship when choosing the wording of their posts, & it's time to get back on the ball with it.
This is the rule:
What I reccomend is to follow George Carlin's -->Seven Dirty words you can't say on TV<--
Remember that there are all different types of people on the server of all ages, & we all have to exercise a little restraint now & then, & if you think you are about to add a post that contains any words that might be "iffy", then exercise your ability to exorcise it...after all, better safe than sorry.
I trust that this is as clear as a bell to all.
This is the rule:
Quote:1. Not allowed on Discovery forums:
- Posting abusive, vulgar, hateful, harassing, obscene, racist materials;
- Advertising, especially commercial advertising, except (1) advertising your own gaming websites or forums or (2) your own game servers;
- Adult content or links to adult content;
- Posting libel, defamatory, threatening materials and any law-violating materials;
- Posting copyrighted material that does not belong to you and redistribution of which was not allowed by the owner.
Violating this will in most cases lead to a ban.
2. Using bad language on forums is not allowed without any exceptions. We've got bad word filters, but this does NOT give you right to use harsh language.
