[BN]~Rules

[EinarRhys]

I would like not to have rules. However, after seeing some quality of the posts, I believe some posting requirements need to be upheld. We highly recommend following these or if you want to indulge in breaking them then we will not mind banning you. ^^"

Currently, we work off a warning system and we do not ban someone on their first fault. However, there are severe cases, where mandatory actions are necessary. o.o We also inform members on their actions and give them chances to correct it. We would like not to ban or suspend someone; however, if we are unable to ascertain a certain quality of the posts then we will have to suspend or ban to enforce a period of enlightenment. O.o Kindly, do not indulge in breaking these rules as it only pushes us to make difficult choices. :x

The Guidelines are generally for all the forums over here. If otherwise, it will be indicated in the guidelines…

The general guidelines for the Forum Posting as follows:~

General Forum Rules:
1. Do not spam and that includes post like "lol", or "thats reallly Coool", one word or very short posts. Spam for us is considered to be a post that contains less than four words and/or does not interact with the topic. We will be monitoring people’s posts and people with very short posts will be monitored harshly. o.o It’s fine to thank other members for links or help is allowed but do it once and don't reply to the thank you by a "ur welcome" post as it'll be considered spam. In addition, a post containing just smilies or images will be considered spam and every post requires some text in it.

2. Do not post any form of pornographic or hentai related material. We like to keep the site accessible for minors as well. If we find any form of materials, we will ban you with no warnings.

3. Do not double, triple, etc or post Identical posts under Different sections and do not make a generic thread. Kindly, make sure you do a thorough search before u start a new thread. Most likely the moderators will merge the topics together. If a few occurrences occur then it might result in a harsher punishment such as a suspension or a ban depending on the occurrences. O.o

4. When starting a new Thread, clearly state the title of the thread and post a decent and relevant comment about the subject. The thread should be related to the section under which it is posted otherwise will be moved to its respective section. If frequent occurrences occur, at first a warning will be received and if unable to comprehend with the warning then we will ban you for your ignorance. :x

5. Kindly, respect each other and do not flame or aggravate any of the members on the forum. If someone does flame, kindly report it to the moderator and do not post to the comment. The person flaming will be banned and anyone interacting with him will also be banned. ^^”

6. Also, under any circumstances I would not like rants of how horrible the site is run. If you have a problem with it then I would kindly ask not to return here. ^^ If I see posts such as that my hand might get loose and ban you. >.<"

7. Do not use offensive language or provide any form of racist comments. We would ask not to swear and if you would like to incorporate the swearing. Kindly replace them with substituting characters; however, it will be preferred not to have any swearing. It will be pleasant for the minors. ^.^

8. When posting images have a thumbnail and have a link pointing to the high-resolution image. It will be easier for people with slow internet to view the forum… Yes, we have an image resizer; however, the resize script does not apply a thumbnail and loads the whole image after your browser has downloaded the image it resizes then... :s We kindly ask to be considerate towards people who's countries provide slow internet. We will send regular warnings to do it. However, don't make us clean your mess. :x

9. Kindly, do not create topics that other users could reply in one word or few words. Try to extend the topic by asking why one would think this or that. We will deliberately be checking every new topic and post. We will remove anything we will is unnecessary or does not provide a certain consistency towards our views. o.o

10. This is more of a suggestion than a rule, when commenting try posting few sentences than few words. o.o” It helps to keep the discussion going on and people will pay attention to your post more…

11. Also, more of a suggestion... If you find someone spamming or someone breaking rules. Kindly report their post, the BN staff will really appreciate your aid. ^^

Section Anime/Manga Forums:
1. No Anime Vs Anime or Manga Vs Manga topics as there is no definite answer and it depends on one’s preferences. Therefore, we would not want any of such topics. We permit Anime Vs Manga; however, it only applies to the same anime and this topic is required to post in the Manga Forum and not in the Anime Forum!!

2. Kindly, add the spoiler tag when you feel that you are providing information on the anime or manga that you feel would spoil it for others. Do not blatantly provide spoilers, as it spoils the plot for others. However, if deliberate occurrences occur then we might have to do something about it. :x

Section General Forums:
1. No discussion on religions as it will only resolve in fights and I would not want any fights occurring over here. o.o
