The servers and this forum are intended for players of all kinds to get together and have fun. Despite the name (No Rules TF2), there are some relatively simple, commonsense rules that basically apply all across the gaming universe. Following is a short list of rules for this forum.
Keep it helpful and/or on topic. Bumping old posts in this manner is okay.
Harassment and malicious or disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated.
Making new accounts to evade a ban on the server or forum will not be tolerated.
Bribes to appeal bans will not be accepted. If your bribe comes in the form of a server donation, it will not be refunded, and you will stay banned until your ban period expires.
No porn links in the forum.
No malware links in the forum. This will get you banned.
No spambots. Proboards is generally able to weed them out, but if one gets through and starts spamming the forum, it will be banned.
In detail:
1. Necroposting (posting to old threads) is okay, as long as your post is positive, helpful, and on topic. Somebody somewhere is going to stumble onto that thread and learn something from it, so that's why I've made necroposting legal.
2. Malicious behavior such as racism, name-calling, and harassment is disrespectful. Don't do it.
3. If, for whatever reason, you have been banned from my server, and you make a new Steam account to bypass that ban, you will be banned again. I work for a group of white-hat hackers at a software development company, so I know how to figure things out. And if you keep bypassing server bans, I will install Asherkin's Free2BeKicked plugin so you will have to pay money each time you bypass it again.
4. Speaking of which, I will not accept bribes to appeal bans. If you have made a donation to my server and were banned, unfortunately, I have no way to refund your money. Unless you did something really serious, your ban will not be permanent, and your donor perks (if you had any) will still be there waiting for you when the ban expires.
5. The same ban evasion rules apply to this forum. When we issue a ban, we are banning a person, not just an account.
6. No porn links or porn images in the forum or the gameservers. Exception: furry porn sprays are okay as long as they are not too disgustingly graphic. Use your own judgement. If an admin deems your spray too graphic or offensive, it will be removed and a range of consequences will be considered.
7. Absolutely no malware links anywhere. Viruses are evil, and links to them can get you banned from the forum.
8. Spambots are evil. Don't use one.
