Community Forum Rules & Guideline

Community Forum Rules

1.1 Respect

Be respectful towards others. No exceptions. It's the number one and the most important rule in the forum.
Sanctions: None specified; actions will be decided by the moderators handling the offender.

1.2 Pornography

No pornography. No porn links, images or downloads. Any post will be removed immediately and then you'll receive a forum infraction for it.
Sanctions: 14 days of forum and in-game ban.

1.3 Advertising

No Advertising/ Server Advertising. Seriously no, it's already common sense. This is our forum, iG forums is not here to let you advertise servers, server links and etc. Posts like this will be removed immediately.
Sanctions: Permanent forum and server ban.

1.4 Multi-Accounting

No Duplicate Forum Accounts. This means one account per person. We added this rule because some of our members in the last forum abused it, and we don't want to be confused like for example, "That's him!" "Another member said that's him!" "No that's not him, that's the real him!" Indeed, its confusing isn't it? We don't want that to happen.
Sanction: Duplicated forum account deletion, forum infractions or forum ban.

1.5 Faking Rank Position

Never act as an Administrators or a Moderator. If you're not an administrator don't go roam around and act one. It's okay to remind someone about our rules. That's why we have forum admins and moderators because It's our job to keep the forum clean from rule breakers. If you see someone rule breaking then you can report them to us.
Sanctions: Forum infractions, or forum ban.

1.6 Spamming

No spamming. Spam is a post that does not contribute to the discussion. For example, there is this thread and you're just replying something like “Yeah” or “Cool”. It's a bit short and we consider it as a spam. If you're spamming posts like that, you'll be warned, one of our moderators will PM you.
