Rules and Regulations

Hello there and welcome to Simoun-Sibylla Forum! Here are a couple of rules to follow while you're here...

Rules:

1. Be kind and rewind. Treat others with respect and you will get it in return!
2. No e-drama! If you have some offline feud with another member, you will be monitored.
3. No racist comments!
4. No political or religious debates.
5. Make sure your signature isn't enormous! I mean it! >_>
6. Do not double post! Use the edit button, it is your friend dammit!!!
7. If you have disagreements with another member, don't get upset. Your opinion is important, no matter what. As long as it's reasonable. Being pissed at a member has nothing to do with Simoun, so have some tough skin. ;P
8.If you have any suggestions to enhance the forum, feel free to speak up! I want to read your input!
9. Have fun! Most important rule of all!^_^

Question! About Rule #4:

It's Simoun, for God's sake. Can we talk about these things in general terms or on Simoun's own terms as long as we don't turn to discussions of real-world politics or religion?

Why of course. I should of been more specific. XD That's what happens when one copy and pastes from another forum.

I just have a question. What about swearing? Is it allowed or not?

I'll reply as a mod, and then if Luu thinks otherwise, he can give his two cents.

I think it's best if we keep things civil and appropriate for anyone who would happen to stumble onto the board. Heavy swearing isn't something that would look very good. PG-PG13ish is best so maybe a few simple swears here and there, but so far there's been no need to swear from members at this point.

OK, that sounds reasonable.

Or any point. In how I run things, swearing is allowed depending on the fanbase and the series it's celebrating. Mai-HiME/Otome is a more crazy, fanservice involved series with quite the raunchy and wild fanbase. Which is why I allow heavy swearing at Mai-Multiverse Forum. Simoun is a more sophisticated series and I'd like it's community to reflect that.

"Crap"
"Bastard"
"Bitch"

Words like that are allowed (PG-PG13 as Rachel puts it), just use them eloquently. Thank you.
