Adding Forum Rules - Zoreo - 07-30-2019

The forums really need a written set of rules. Shitposting has its own set of rules, but the rest of the forums needs them too. Nicky's forum rules are a good start, but we need something more descriptive.

The good thing about forums is they dont need any rules really, just post in the relevant sub forums which have descriptions of what goes where. The only rule I'd like as an official thing is not to necro irrelevant threads that are more than a month inactive. At that point it's more productive to make your own thread.

And hard r. No hard r.

I feel like chat rules from in-game transfer over to the forums though..

A set of rules hasn't been necessary at this time, there hasn't been an issues with players abusing forums. 

Here's the basics for understanding forums:
  •  Don't necro threads
  • Keep discussions in threads on topic
  • Have sufficient evidence to support your claim
  • Don't use the hard R or any other racist comments
  •  Keep all random shenanigans in Shitposting

For the time being, creating a set of rules is excessive.
