Great rules! I'm copying and pasting a list of rules I post on all boards I created so you can use them here too in order to make sure your board doesn't get abused.

1. Please keep the forums "G" rated--in other words, no profanity please. Keep in mind that this is a kid-safe board.

2. Refrain from posting "slash" material in the forums. In addition to this, please no sexually graphic posts in roleplays or otherwise. Once again, this is a kid-safe board.

3. Don't pick fights here with other members. In character arguments and fights are fine as that is just roleplay, but don't fight and argue with people here. You may post your opinions, but don't create heated disputes on any particular topic. It's just not necessary.

4. Do not post racial slurs or insult any nationalities.

5. Try to keep posts on topic and please avoid making one word posts or single smiley posts. This just wastes space in threads and can get annoying for readers.

6. Please no spamming.

7. Do not advertise your sites or boards in any forums. A small link to your board or site in your signature is fine.

8. Have good, clean fun!

9. The Golden Rule- treat others as you want to be treated.

10. When posting spoilers (information on upcoming books), please be respctful of others. Some people don't like to know what happens in a book before reading it for themselves, so when posting a book spoiler, please tag your thread topic *spoiler* or *spoiler warning* so people know not to view your topic if they don't want to spoil the surprise of reading the book. Also, put lots of space in your post to bump the actual spoiler down toward the bottom so if it is accidentally clicked, the spoiler won't be the first thing a person sees.

In breaking any of these rules, you will be warned only a limited number of times before you will be banned, so please--out of respect for this board, its members, and the staff--try to stick to these guidelines when posting anywhere on this board. Thanks!

Thanks for improving the rules, I really appreciate it.

Update on the rules, minor cursing like "crap" is allowed. I warn you, do not use strong language, mild language is fine.
