Okay guys listen, I have recently been talking to some of the other staff members and we have agreed that we should lay down some small things so if the forum gets larger it won’t cause some big problems.
1) Please do not say “Oh lets do something like at *inset Forum name here*” I have noticed a lot of users we have so far here are from DH (Distant Horizons, an Avatar: the Last Airbender fansite), and other Naruto/Avatar fansites. Please do not discuss these sites on all the boards, if you wish to talk about them go to the Other Sites board.
2) Spam! ><
Dear members of DAU,
We've noticed there has been a surplus of spam. Spam is like saying "..." "ok" or "lol" and posting that. It's getting to be extreme, especially because we're a small forum. Please refrain from posting these messages or anything along these lines. If you don't have anything to contribute to the discussion, please don't post. A person shouldn't have to go through five pages of spam just to find an intelligent post. It can be a nuisance. This may not even apply to you, but if it does, you are not in trouble. This is just a warning. Do not think you are trouble, even if you do spam. We're not handing out bans, but if the spam continues at an excessive rate, then some consequences will follow. If you have any questions, please feel free to PM a member of the staff.
Thanks Para for writing this up.
But please, keep the spam to a minimum we do not want to PM you if this comes to be a problem if we get some new members. So please get in the habit of making some important spam free posts. If you would like to spam please go to the General board. Thank you.
3) Just a small reminder: stay on topic.
Don't try and stray off into talking about school and finals in the middle of a plot/character dissection. It completely contaminates and disturbs the procedure. [/lame biology analogy]
If you are patient enough you probably read this whole entire rant. You deserve a pat on the back; thank you for reading this and have fun while you visit DAU. =)
