Rules & Regulations

[EvilAngel 447]

• No Discrimination - You may not insult members based on their religion, race, sex, political beliefs, or whether they are *** or straight. This is worse than flaming, because it also hurts other members of the board who fall into the category you insult. Pimped-Pixels is a place where everyone is equal, and discrimination will NOT be tolerated!
• No Bullying - Do not pick on other members. The worst kind of bullying is where new members are picked on. This hurts the member as well as the board.
• No Flaming - Flaming harms the nice atmosphere of Pimped-Pixels. It also causes thread's to go off topic, and most importantly, it hurts the person being flamed. The victim may defend themselves against any accusations made to them, but may not make any additional accusations to the flamer (which also counts as flaming).
• No Profanity or Obscene Content - Such content does not belong on Pimped-Pixels. A censor system is in place as a backup. If you see words in your post being replaced with ****, you have done something wrong. Please edit your post and tone it down before your timer runs out. To edit a post, click the "Edit" button right below it. Cheating the censor system is against the rules.
• Leave the Moderating to the staff - the staff have been given the job of dealing with rule breaking by the owner if you see an offence being committed notify member of staff don't threaten the offender or start arguments with him / her. All members new and old are treated equally nobody except a member of the administration team has the right to discipline another member in anyway.
• No threatening to have another member banned - Do not use the the threat of having a member banned or use the names of any member of staff to achieve the same effect . The staff take a dim view of this and see it as an act of bullying regardless of whether it was in the heat of an argument or the result of someone breaking the rules, it only serves to cause arguments which can effect everyone else on the forum. If you have a problem report it to a member of staff

You must post this in the same thread, and you are not allowed to create more than one thread per topic.
