ok....me and WC added the new shout box (well really WC added it, i just inspired him to do so 8) )

but anyway...here are some things you should know about it

1. Its on a trial only base, so if it goes bad...its gone

2.the shout box has rules just like the forum

3.if you break these rules you will be banned just like in the forum

4.we cant watch it all the time, so...if we get to many reports about it. we will make are life easy and just delete the whole thing.


for now untill we come up with rules just for the shout box...use these ones to get you by



1. NO SWEARING.
(i) Do not swear unless quoting from a movie.
(ii) Placing symbols in swear words (e.g. *) still counts as swearing.

2. NO HOSTILITY.
(i) Rudeness, insults and personal attacks will not be tolerated.
(ii) Racism or religious hatred and any other type of discrimination will not be tolerated.
(iii) Do not insult new members, moderators will deal with them as appropriate.

3. NO INAPPROPRIATE / ILLEGAL DISCUSSIONS.
(i) Discussion of illegal activities (e.g. piracy), real life gangs and weapons is prohibited.

4. NO NEGATIVITY.
(i) Only make constructive comments as negative comments will be deleted.

5. NO SPAMMING.
(i) Links to unrelated sites should be posted in the off topic forum.
(ii) Inappropriate posting anywhere in the forum is not allowed.

6. NO TRADING.
(i) Please do not trade items on the site. Posting links to your items on eBay is encouraged.


any reports of breaking these 6 rules will result in a warnings,bans and a possible drop of the shout box

Back to the whole "1-5 word posts" thing. Some heavy bans are going to be handed out. I can smell it in the air 8).

Talking about banning people, (so hope its ok to say this here)when you ban someone you dont let them know why they have been banned and for how long, well i didnt get told anyway. So how about emailing someone when they get banned..just an idea.

Yeah, I wasn't informed the reason as to why I was banned for 5 days.  ::)

Probably feeding the troll?

Ah well.

well, when we let you know...we do...but we never HAVE to let anyone know

if you were told, then you were, if you were not...then you better figure it out and not do it again


life is simple, read the rules...follow them...

there are people on this forum, who have never been banned...never even been warned or been brought up for a ban....

and even more, i dont like some of them..so it CANT be that there the "mods pets"

Kartoon you say we better figure it out, but as far as i am aware i was following the rules, didnt post more than 5 posts aday, no swearing, didnt talk about anything illegal, didnt post anything that would offend anyone etc etc. Just saying that it would be nice, you didnt have to go all defensive.
