Rules of the Ministry
All members of the ministry are to follow these rules at all times.
1. No double posting! Other people need and want the chance to get a word in edgewise. In your own department, ask your Head if you can post more then once in a row. In the main portion of the site, it's not allowed.
2. No Spamming! This means, no posting with less then 3 words unless the thread calls for it, no posting where half the post is emoticons like
, posting with numerous typos that can't be understood, and posting about something that is not what the topic of the thread is. Don't do it. It's a tad bit annoying.3. No bad words! I personally don't cuse, and I don't like it when other people cuse. I even correct my parents. Some people share my veiws. Be curtious to the other people on the site. Words like arse, crap, darn, shoot, fudge and others like that will be allowed. But if you can substitute a cuse word for another, why not just sustitute? Good.
4. One account per person! Why would you even need two? If you're trying to get the password to another department to see what they're doing, don't. That's their space and you have yours. You wouldn't want people getting into your space right? I didn't think so.
5. Let's meet sometime! Let's not. The internet is not a safe place to try and meet potential dates. That's not what this site is for. Do not come here just for that purpose. Predator activity will not be tolerated. If you are even suspected of it, you will have a one week banning. The ban goes up a week for each suspicion. Flirting is going to happen. But trying to get people to meet you in real life... no. It's not safe.
6. Hacking! Trying to hack the system or another person's account won't be tolerated either. That will be a one month ban. You don't need to have the rights to everything on the site. If it's restricted from you, it's like that for a reason. Get over it.
7. Giving away your password! Don't. If you're going away, just tell me. I can get you up to date when you get back. Don't try and let another person run your account. They may mess up your profile and confuse a lot of other people. And others, don't try and get the password from another person. Stick with your own account.
8. Harrasement! Definatly not allowed! Don't be mean, rude, o inappropraite to people. It's stupid and uncalled for. If your suspected for harrasement, it's a ban for a week. If there's proof, you will be immediatly and perminantly banned from the site. Harrasement is a big deal. IF YOU ARE BEING HARRASED PM me RIGHT away. I'll take care of it.
9. Complaining about life! Don't. Simply said, don't. This ite is not to be used to tell everyone about how bad your life is and how the world sucks. It doesn't. No one needs their spirits brought down like that. It's not healthy and it's annoying. Somethings aren't fair in life, but not everything sucks. Get over it.
10. You want to be a staff/mod! Good for you. I didn't ask you. If you have ask me, then clearly I didn't think about you for the job. If you ask, I may never think about you for it. I only let people I trust of find greatly trustworthy be a staff or mod member. I like my site, and I want people who I can trust there to run it.
11. Advertisement! Yay! Advertising!!! It's cool. But it belongs in the Allies board. Don't run around in threads that have nothing to do with advertising and post 'Check out this coolio site! It's awesome!' Advertising has a place. Don't join just to advertise. Please. You'll be banned for a week.
That's it for the rules for now. I want this site to be a fun and safe place, so try to make it happen with me. Let's all have fun and make sure others are too. Ok? So please follow the rules and I think we'll all get along GREAT! ;D ;D
