Welcome to the Black Haze forums!
Please read these rules and comply to them or a staff member will give you a warning... or worse, disable your account. So, let's go over some simple rules!
As a heads up:
Warning level 1 = First time offenders
Warning level 2 = Second time offenders
There will not be a third warning.
1) Be considerate of others' opinions:
People have different opinions on characters, theories, etc., so please respect their opinions and do not start tearing them apart for it. Also, discrimination of any sort will NOT be tolerated.
(If you are being rude just for fun, then it's okay as long as the other party is fine with it)
2) Referring to #1; only talk back when someone else was the FIRST to be rude:
I would call this self-defense or defending a friend, so no penalties will be given for this. Hopefully, a MOD will take care of it before it gets out of hand.
3) No spamming:
You can post several comments in a row, as long as you they are NOT personal advertisements, or the same or substantially the same post repeatedly (don't do this even over multiple threads).
If you do post the same thing over and over again in a thread that is NOT dedicated to spam (we do indeed have some threads here dedicated to spamming), we will give you a warning.
For personal advertisements, you will automatically get a warning level of 2.
4) Stay on topic:
When having fun, people will tend to get off topic so it's only natural, but please try your best to stay somewhat relevant or make a new thread in the proper category. It's okay to get a little out of hand every now and then, but it can be a tedious task for MODs to move things around all the time, so please act accordingly.
5) Reposting art of any sort (rules about crediting and such):
This is VERY important. I have made a separate thread dedicated to informing members on the DOs and DONTs of reposting art.
PLEASE READ THE ART RULES HERE: blackhaze.freeforums.net/thread/274/
6) BE WEARY OF SPOILERS:
I will NOT ask you to put in a spoiler warning, so everyone, please be weary of them and do not report every single person who spoils. The thread title should give you enough hints on whether there will be spoilers or not.
Side note:
You can use the (spoiler) TYPE SPOILER HERE (/spoiler)* code if you want, or just put "SPOILER WARNING:" before the spoiler.
*For the code, replace the (ROUND) brackets for [SQUARE] brackets!!!

The code can be used especially for pictures.
