ICannt's General Forum Rules
The follow are the governing rules of the ICannt.org Community.
It is a condition of your membership to our community that you agree to adhere to these rules.
If you have any enquiries, please contact us.
Spamming
Spamming can be defined as creating numbers of posts or threads for no good reason or purpose.
Any spam post will be edited-out, and a warning posted in its place.
Any spam thread will be locked, and a warning posted.
If a user has a history in any way of spamming the forums, and it continues, a board warning will be issued to that member.
Abuse
NO abuse will be tolerated.
Any abusive post will be edited out.
Any abusive topic will be locked.
A board warning will be issued for any and all abuse conducted through the public forums.
Administrative section
Whilst admins are encouraged to participate in the administrative section of the forums, you are also reminded of the importance of a senior admin's role in such a place.
If a senior admin has rendered a decision, then that ends the discussion, and the topic will be closed.
If you have no constructive input to the topic, do not post in it.
Spam posts will be deleted on sight.
Any spam in this section will result in an instant board warning being issued.
All the normal rules apply.
If you have any claim against any player on the ICannt network, then post it in the appropriate section.
Grudges/Friendships
DO NOT carry any grudges from in game onto the forums. We obviously can't make you like anyone, but we will make you not be public about it.
DO NOT let friendships dominate any discussion. Use private messages or MSN etc to have long chats with a friend.
Use of the private message system
All normal forum rules apply to the private messaging system.
If you have a private message which breaches these rules, forward it to any moderator or administrator.
Templates
In some sections of this forum, there has been a template posted which will guide you through making your post.
If such a template exists, you must follow it.
Failure to follow a template will result in your topic being locked, or your post being removed.
Flame-baiting
Abusive, racist, incestuous, sexist, homophobic comments (or any other type of bigots), personal attacks and name calling are not allowed either on the board or through the private message system.
Flame-baiting is also not tolerated; flame-baiting is making a post to someone that is obviously intended to elicit an angry response.
Flame-baiting will result in removal of the post or topic, and a board warning being issued.
Game admin’s, Senior admin’s, Moderators and Administrators
If a direction is given by any of the above listed member groups, it is to be followed.
Failure to do so will result in locking of topics and removal of posts.
Hacks, cracks, patches and torrents
ICannt.org does not support modifications of any game that conflict with EULA's, TOS's and/or AUP's. You may not discuss torrents or torrent trackers unless
it is in regards to obtaining legitimate free software such as Linux distributions. Any discussion of such activities will be removed and the poster may be banned from the forums.
Advertising
Advertising anything by a competitor to ICannt.org will result in a board warning being issued.
Advertising ICannt.org can only be done with prior approval from Lord Koob.
Post content
No posting of pictures containing pr0n, real killing, mutilations, wounds, carnage, and other disgusting/explicit images. This also includes links to pages that contain such images.
If someone has injured themselves then they can show that as long it isn't too disgusting.
Posting of copyrighted material is not only against our rules, it is also illegal!
Doing so may result in your account being banned from this forum.
If you are in doubt, contact a moderator via private message before posting.
Search
Before posting a topic or question, use the board search tool to see if it has been covered before.
Thread guidelines
Post in the right forum
Please ensure you make new threads in the correct forum, if you're unsure of which forum to post in feel free to ask a moderator.
Do not cross-post
Do not post duplicate threads in more than one forum simply to get an answer quicker or to draw more attention to your post.
Do not dig up old threads
Threads older than 1 months should not be dug up unless something significant is being added. If in doubt as to what is "significant" PM a moderator and they will give you their opinion.
Avoid taking threads off topic as best as possible.
If the thread states "Do Not Post Here", don't post there. saying "I know i'm not meant to post here but..." does not allow you to post.
Breach of any of these will result in a board warning being issued.
Reporting posts to the moderators
If you see a post which you feel is in breach of these rules, feel free to report it.
Language
ALWAYS use the English language in posts. Foreign languages will be removed from posts on sight.
Keep the language in your posts clean. No excessive swearing.
NO ALL CAPITALS or excessive punctuation!!!!!!!!!!!
Try and use descriptive, rather than emotive, language when posting in the administrative section, when reporting posts to the moderators, and in general.
All members should be treated with respect, but especially those who have reached admin or senior admin status.
Failure to uphold these language requirements will result in a board warning being issued.
Speaking badly of or to Lord Koob will result in an instant account ban.
Board warnings
If a user account accumulates more than 5 board warnings, that account will be banned.
If the member re-registers, and continues, then they may also be banned off our game server network.
Also remember that at any time you may be spot-banned, at a moderator’s discretion.
Although our moderators will attempt to keep all objectionable message off this site, it is impossible for us to review all messages.
All messages express the views of the author, and ICannt.org Management will not be held responsible for the content of any message.
The ICannt.org Management reserves the right to remove, edit, move or close any content item for any reason.
These rules may be altered at any time without prior notice, however we will do our best to notify users of any change.
The vBulletin CMS allows you and your users to create, edit and publish articles directly to your site. It combines a simple to use content manager with a unique organizational system that lets you control the smallest detail of the site from the number of sections, to the overall layout, to the placement of widgets and displays on each page.
