Full Version: Posting and PM Rules
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Here are the basic Posting Rules that apply in this forum:
  • Do not SPAM. Which means, do not post pointless things. Posts with less than 10 words are considered spam and may be deleted by Mods/Admins. Spamming is allowed in the Spam Corner, yet your posts must follow the rest of the rules even there.
  • Do not ask for things that can be easily found in the site.
  • Do not make single line posts; this is not a chatroom. Use our chatroom or shoutbox instead.
  • Do not make off-topic posts.
  • Do not open a new thread if it doesn't promote discussion.
  • Do not open any "A or/vs B" threads.
  • Do not use too many smileys.
  • Do not use post-icons unless you have permission from a moderator or administrator.
  • Do not post "liek zis" or "l1k3 7h15" or "LIKE THIS".
  • Do not ask for illegal material such as ROMs and MP3s.
  • Do not open threads or post about illegal material such as ROMs and MP3s.
  • Do not show disrespect to Mods or Admins.
  • Do not mini-mod. If there's a post disrespecting the rules, don't yell at the poster, just use the "Report Post" button (bottom right corner of the post).
  • Do not double post.
  • Do not use inappropriate language in your posts. Swearing is inappropriate language.
  • Do not try to take advantage of a hole in the rules.
  • Behave, behave, behave.
  • Learn how to use http://www.google.com .

You are free to link to other sites as long as you don't do it for the sole purpose of advertising.

You are also free to post messages in two languages: Greek/Ελληνικά and English; any other language is not allowed for communication reasons. Greek are allowed in the Greek Corner/Ελληνική Γωνιά and some other, specific threads.
Use of latin characters for writing greek words (Greeklish) is prohibited.
Here are the basic rules for Private Messaging.
  • Do not harass other users.
  • Do not private message other users for the sole purpose of advertising something.
  • Do not private message the Mods or Admins asking to become Mods or criticizing what they do on the forums.

The private messages cannot be read by Mods/Admins unless a user provides them with his/her password which is also hidden from the Mods/Admins.
Due to a serious spammer infestation of the boards and while the forum reorganization is pending, two new rules have been introduced:
  • Minimum words per post: 10.
    Any new posts with less than 10 words can be deleted by any of the moderators without previous warning or further explanation. This is a forum, not a chatroom, learn how to support your ideas and use arguments.
  • No new polls
    Untill stricter rules concerning polls are defined, no new ones are allowed.

Εξαιτίας σοβαρής επιδημίας spam και ενόσω η αναδιαμόρφωση του φορουμ βρίσκεται σε εξέλιξη, ισχύουν οι ακόλουθοι νέοι κανόνες:
  • Ελάχιστο λέξεων κατα post: 10.
    Οποιαδήποτε νέα δημοσιεύση κάτω απο 10 λέξεις μπορει να διαγραφεί απο τους διαχειριστές χωρίς προηγούμενη ειδοποίηση ή δικαιολογία. Μάθετε να υποστηρίζετε τις απόψεις σας με επιχειρήματα, πρόκειται για φόρουμ όχι για chat.
  • Όχι νέες δημοσκοπήσεις
    Απαγορεύονται οι νέες δημοσκοπήσεις ή θέματα τύπου δημοσκόπησης μέχρι να ανακοινωθούν νέοι, αυστηρότεροι κανόνες για αυτές.
  • Ειδικότερα για το ελληνικό τμήμα: Απαγορεύονται τα greeklish. Γράφετε περιεκτικούς, σαφείς και ευανάγνωστους τίτλους.
Just a proper reminder:
  • Discussion on anything related to ROMs or hacking is STRICTLY prohibited.
    This includes but is not limited to applications like POKESAV and products like Nintendo DS flashcards.
    Discussion on game mechanics is of course allowed.
  • Discussion on hacking devices are only allowed as long as they are in the theoretical level.
    Codes and related paraphernalia are STRICTLY prohibited.


However, discussion on game mechanics such as IVs, RNG manipulation etc. is allowed.
NEVER EVER reveal anything about the plot of any game, series, movie, episode, book, whatever without the use of the spoiler feature that MyCode offers. While you may not care, there are people who plan to play the game, watch the series/movie/episode or read the book that do not want you to reveal anything.

The code you should use is:
Code:
[spoiler=Text that can be seen]Text that cannot be seen.[/spoiler]

And it will result in this:
Text that can be seen (Click to View)

Certainly, obvious information like "the starters in RBY are Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle" don't need to be in spoiler tags, however, information about future games, events that haven't happened yet, upcoming movies and the like must be hidden.

Warnings and bans will be given, be sure about that. Personally, I'm tired of reading about what will happen when on HG/SS and what was revealed about the next movie on site X or Y.
Use the appropriate thread prefix to specify which generation your thread belongs to if the category you're posting in is destined for more than one generations.

e.g. "Gen IV :"


Failure to do so may result in deletion of your thread.
