We obviously need some new rules after the latest incidents with all the infractions that's being handed out like a wind. I think you should make the rules clearer, and easier accessible. We also need a new subforum, it should be called fast threads, and should be used for as the name states; fast threads. This is for your "Post Your" and "Question" threads, or your fast questions who don't belong in the support forum, like: What does X mean, or how does Y work? Post count in that forum should be disabled, because there will mostly be spam there.

I also found some rules on another forum I usually hang out in, they have some great rules, people rarely spam, and when they do; they get banned. Simple.

_______________________

Don't reply to SHIT threads just to make fun of how SHIT they are
If you think a thread is a pile of crap DON'T POST IN IT- It's keeping all the dumb threads on the first page.

Use descriptive thread titles and post in the right subforum
Or you'll get banned.

No +1/agree
If you really agree to the above users post, then write why you do it, instead of trying to get your post count up.

Don't make boring contentless threads
Threads about what happened at school today or how unfair your parents are or what should I have for dinner
Nobody wants to read about that and there isn't anything to discuss.

No megathreads.
The modteam will title yours one if we think it's necessary.

Use search
Before you make a thread, check to see if there hasn't been one recently made about it. If there is, then just post in there instead.

Threads with no real topic to actually discuss belong in fast threads.
Includes "post your x" threads and small questions

Bad ideas for threads
Justin Beiber
School
Unfair parents
Religion
My x hurts/is sick/is dead
Parody threads
4chan
Mundane crap you did today
It's my birthday today/in X days/tomorrow/etc...
I'm new here
Chat-logs
Your awful idea for fixing x global crisis. IT SUCKS
Dumb video streams
Your medical problems
Your bowel movements
Your stories of masturbation shenanigans

None of these ever end well so your thread will just get locked. If it's exceptionally awful you'll get banned too, so make these kinds of threads at your own risk!

Note - Ban-me threads and spam threads are the same thing, you should get banned for making them.

Wow,

"Use descriptive thread titles and post in the right subforum

That is awfully radical.
 
BINGO!!!! +1 for this. They want us to follow rules but their rules suck ass, as I stated in my previous complaint. They need to elaborate more, because those rules are shit right now.
 
We can post whatever we want as long as we read and understand this:

"By agreeing to these rules, you warrant that you will not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or otherwise violative of any laws."

Is very clear in my opinion.

No it's not..................................................................... There might be some children that are unaware of the definition of those words :D
 
I think they should add "annoying" to the list. What's worse than annoying messages?

Just a tip for that i marked as fat text, its already one thread that you can use to say hello, i'm new ;)

If they can't understand the rules they shouldn't even be on OTLand...
 
They should not even be on the internet, as their either handicapped or under aged.

So your post right now is legal? rules are made to be broken and that's it.
I could say more then 5*5+ threads/teams/posts that is illegal if you follow these to the bitter end referring to :Down:

And punishments are made for everyone who breaks the rules :thumbup:

You bann people for one single spam post...

Who are you to judge what people do and do not want to read?




You really want some North Korea regime here...

I don't say there shouldnt be any rule, but every child hates it when your parents/teachers/police tell you what you can't do, and now here we are at a forum with people from 12-20. Shouldnt it be a bit more lenient....

This is a great example! Let me hear your opinion in why my post violates the rules. And please give me and the rest of the community a relevant explaination! :)

TXP, first of all. How does being German make my post so extraordinary?, and I don't know what kind of spam you mean, but I mean trolling, advertising etc. They deserve to be banned for some time depending on the type of spam.

I think we can all agree that contentless threads is something everyone dislikes. It takes up forum space, and is mostly made just to get your postcount up.

I am sorry if I wasn't explaining good enough, but I mean forum threads. Also, I don't see anything in my post that would break the rules I suggested.
