Default ATTN: Rules for the Game Thread forum

Forum games are text based multiplayer games which contribute in an internet forum.
There are certain rules which apply to this board.

The rules are as stated below:


No postwhoring

Inflating your post count using the Game Threads by repeatedly inserting a reply on the same page of a thread will more or less likely give you a bad posting reputation, and consequences may follow. Postwhoring is not the way to go.

No more than 1 post per page on non-competitive threads. This is based on a page consisting of 20 posts. The only exception is if there has been at least 24 hours since the last post has been made.


This means that threads which DO NOT require competitive and/or strategical posts from a user, should have no more than 1 post from the same user on the page. (Again, with the exception of there being at least 24 hours before the latest post.)

Examples of non-competitive threads:

* Rate the above person's avatar
* Rate the above person's signature
* The Last Letter Game
* Story Three Words Each
* What's on your CTRL+V?
* Band Name Game
* Any Hurt 'n' Heal game

If a user breaches this rule, responding within the thread will not give you any advantages. The best course of action to take is to ignore and allow the moderators to respond. However, if the user is in clear violation of this rule and does it continuously, report the post. Ignoring helps to reduce flames and arguments within a thread.

Any user violating this rule multiple times will more than likely be banned from posting in the Game Threads forum.


Forum Games ONLY

* Do NOT make a game thread which does not comply with the definition of a forum game.
* Do NOT make a game thread which includes a link to a flash game, requiring users to post their score in the thread.
* Do NOT make a game thread which is racial, discriminative or derogatory in ANY way.
* Do NOT make a game thread which you are unsure of its place in the Game Thread forum.


If a thread is locked:

If a thread is locked, it will remain locked (unless further discussed). It would be a decision made by a moderator. This will NOT be an incentive to create a thread similar to that of, or identical to the locked thread.

Possible reasons for a thread lock:

* Identical to that of an already locked thread
* Similar to that of an already locked thread
* Identical to that of a thread which has already been created
* Similar to that of a thread which has already been created
* An old thread which has been revived - 'bumped'
* Violates rules given in this thread
* Unclear, or poor in nature
* Not a forum game


When making a thread:

Make sure that the thread you are creating has not already been made or locked. However, if the thread was made a long time ago but hasn't been locked, you may need to ask a moderator or a senior member if it would be right to make a new one, similar or identical.

Tips:

* Discuss with a friend or another member of the forum about your idea of a forum game
* Check for old threads which are similar or identical
* Make sure to lay out clear instructions if it is not obvious



The forum games are there for enjoyment or as a diversion from other tasks. It was not created for purposes such as postwhoring, trolling or flame wars.
Clear violation of any of these rules may result you anywhere from light, to serious consequences.
