EOSERV Forum Rules

1. Global Rules

  1. Do not type "lol liek u do dis way" - this is a public forum, not a message to your friends on MSN.
  2. Try to be helpful to everyone.
  3. Do not harass any other users for any reason.

2. Posting Rules

  1. Topics should have a descriptive subject line. (not "help me" or "hey guys read this")
  2. Do not post overly obscene imagery (enough to distract from the purpose of the forum).
  3. Do not post any illegal content or links to it (warez, serials, keygens, etc). This includes copyrighted material (e.g. official EO graphics).
  4. Do not post if you have nothing to add to a conversation.
    1. Do not reply with unhelpful statements like "noob use search" or "this topic sucks".
    2. Create a new topic to ask new questions in.
    3. Avoid mindless, off-topic chatter in topics.
  5. Do not post with the intention of only bringing visitors to your own websites/servers (advertising).
  6. Don't attempt to sell anything, post jobs, or request people reply to your topics for any reason other than adding to the discussion.
  7. Topics should be placed in the right forum; read the forum descriptions for more information.
  8. Stay on topic, create a new thread for a new discussion.
  9. Do not open a topic by requesting replies to your email address, this is very rude.

3. Signature Rules

  1. Keep the total size of the signature (including images) below 50KB at a maximum.

4. Staff Rules

  1. A staff position is not a reward, it's a job.
  2. You don't "win" a staff position by posting a lot. Now stop your spamming.
  3. Comments should only be used to comment on the post itself (or give off-topic responses), never as a replacement for replies.
  4. Only spam and heavily off-topic posts should be deleted.
  5. Topics should be locked once there is no room for discussion (usually indicated by the OP).
  6. Rating guidelines:
    • −2: total spam
    • −1: other rule-breaking or stupid reply
    • ±0: off-topic comment or improvement suggestion
    • +1: helpful, model post
    • +2: reading this post made you sexually excited
  7. Common sense overrides all rules. Good faith is assumed to a point but if you're being a smart-ass line stepper you will be banned.
