The Rules
Rule No. 1 - Flaming, Bashing, and Trolling
Hate posts and personal attacks will not be tolerated on ArcaNation. Treat others on these message boards as you would expect them to treat you. Posting topics specifically designed to provoke a negative response from someone (aka trolling) is also asked to be avoided. There are however some posts that will cause debates that may offend you. If you are easily offended by discussions about race, religion, and other highly opinionated topics we suggest you stay out of those topics.
Rule No. 2 - No 'Spamming'
Purposely spamming a message board with senseless, vacuous, or empty messages to gain a higher post count, or just to annoy others is HIGHLY frowned upon! Commercial spamming and advertising are just as unwelcome, double posting is allowed to an extent, however only if it is an essential edit. One bump is allowed per thread per month (SPAN OF 30 DAYS SINCE FINAL POST)
