EASY WAYS TO GET BANNEDsilkroad gold is base to the players. While the overwhelming majority of our users have no problem simply acting within SRF rules, it seems that some of us feel the need to perpetually push the boundaries of what is accepted. I want to make it perfectly clear that this will NOT be tolerated here, and that continuing to defy the rules will get you permanently banned from this forum. Do not want to be banned? DO not DO THESE THINGS.
1) Be a boot supporter. Change your avatar to the pointy-finger boot symbol. Put 0x33 somewhere in your sig. Talk openly about, admit to, or suggest butting in a thread. Ask about how to buy, offer to sell, or post links to boot clients, etcetera will be no warnings. There will be no discussion. There is ZERO tolerance.
2) Be a bigot. Post SS of global, whispers, or other interactions with a member of a particular race, nationality, religion, sex, etc. that is meant to defame, degrade, or ridicule them for being a member of that class. Make threads about how much you hate people from X and how they are ruining the game for you. Put racist slogans, images, etc. in your sig. Screw it up once and you get a warning. Ignore that warning and you will lose the right to post, display signatures, etc. Continue to defy and you will be banned, period.
3) Disrespect the SRF staff. Blatantly defy a request or instruction from a mod. Post comments about a mod's inability to do their job properly after being mudded. Refuse to comply with forum standards after being warned by a mod for an infraction. The three-strike rule is in effect here as well. Do not think you can get away with it. The staff here devotes a lot of time on a volunteer basis to keep this forum a nice place to visit and a nice community to be a part of. Push this issue and you will be banned.
4) Remake an account after being banned once for one of the above. We will keep deleting your posts and banning your Imps. You will run out of patience and proxies before we run out of the desire to keep you out. It takes you 10 as long to remake as it does us to ban. Making an alternate identity with which to flame, spam, etc. will cause both accounts to be banned.
5) Be a constant problem. Accuse everyone who starts a topic of being a bot. Spam ridiculous piss off another forum member. Inflate your post count with garbage. If you intentionally make more work for us, you'll find yourself banned.
