Bungie.net Forum Rules (translated for the casually inclined) [quote]Yo dawgs, wassup?! Nice to see y'all here at the Bnet forums! I'd really like it if you could read the followin' house-rules before you hit "Submit" on anything on the site. Got a question about them? Just hollah at a [url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/hfcs/Group/GroupMembers.aspx]Ninja[/url]! The Septagon Forum is for anything to do with Bungie community, the Bnet community, and Bnet itself. If you wanna talk and joke around about our "plan" for World-Domination, feel free, we won't press charges. You can also talk about Bungie lore (like soffish and ling-ling and stuff like that ) as well as Bungie as a company. RULES OF THE BNET FORUMS, YA DIG? Check out the [url=http://www.bungie.net/help/terms_of_use.aspx]Terms of Use[/url] and [url=http://www.bungie.net/help/code_of_conduct.aspx]Code of Conduct[/url] pages; and be sure to read them!. tl;dr: 1. We are in charge of everything here. - Don't pretend to be someone else (either through your posts or your profile) - Cheating or messing up someone's game isn't fun, don't tell people otherwise. - Leaked content (which also includes scans from your favourite gaming magazine), whether they're legit or shooped, aren't allowed. - Don't talk about any changes you've made to your Xbox. We don't care. No seriously. Shut the hell up about it. No I don't care you aren't cheating and that your little brother covered your Xbox with a permanent marker; we honestly don't care. - Politics or religion ain't allowed. We make games. Talk about games. - If you want to make a new thread, make sure you're [url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/hfcs/Group/Resources/Article.aspx?cid=561974]posting in the right forum[/url]. If we catch you posting in the wrong forum, you'll soon know about it. And how! - Don't use the Bnet forums to run contests (including gaming-meet-ups), ask for donations for anything, trade or sell stuff, or tell anyone about anything at all EVER (unless you post it in the Classifieds forum; where nobody will read it anyway). 2. This isn't America. This is the Internet. You ain't got no rights. - We can do whatever the heck we want; even if that means we delete your account and stop you from posting, which would be hilarious, especially if you deserved it. You said it would be okay to do when you created your profile. So HAH! - How long you're banned for isn't always going to be the same as someone else who was banned for that same reason. Nobody cares about your forum title. Seriously. Even you shouldn't. - If a [url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/hfcs/Group/GroupMembers.aspx]Ninja[/url] got you good and you wanna tell them what-for, send the guy responsible a message ([url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/hfcs/Group/Resources/Article.aspx?cid=541597]check dis article out for tips on how to slam 'em good[/url]). 3. Play niec, don't be a jerkfaec. - Use that brain of yours. This site belongs to a company that makes games. So stay true to that and don't post anything rude or sexy. If not, then we'll likely have to end up giving you a ban for your stupidity. And yes that is a reasonable excuse for us. - Respect, yo. The other members deserve it. I mean, at least act civilly on the website; -blam!- and moan about them on MSN and Skype all you want. Calling anyone a bad name like "dolt" isn't allowed, even if they deserve it, like the majority of people in life will. - "Spam" isn't allowed. ([url=http://www.bungie.net/fanclub/hfcs/Group/Resources/FAQ.aspx?cid=523074]What counts as spam? *shrug*[/url]) - Don't post about anything illegal. - Don't post lies. Yeah, even if it is funny. I'M THE FUNNY GUY AROUND HERE! - Don't spoil things for other people, even if Snape did, in fact, kill Dumbledore. - Don't use those annoying tricks to show everyone how angry you are by swearing and making it so it doesn't say "-blam!-" ([url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Godwin%27s_Law]Herego[/url]) - If you're going to make a new thread, try and make it at least interesting enough to spark new discussion out of other people. Please. We need more of that.
