[Please keep in mind that all site rules apply to all areas of Rescreatu, including the forums.]
Posting messages
- Spamming (repetitive or nonsensical messages) will not be tolerated in the forums. Please take the time to make intelligent posts, and use correct grammar and spelling whenever possible. It would be greatly appreciated by all staff and members. Ignoring this rule can result in warnings or a ban.
Content of posts
The staff of Rescreatu is not responsible for patrolling the entire internet; only our own site. It is impossible for us to determine who is the original owner of non-copyrighted off-site content. If you choose to use content found elsewhere, please have respect for the creator of that content and include a note indicating this in your message. Staff will not step in and moderate the posting of non-copyrighted content unless it violates the site rules in some way.
We will, however, step in when an on-site act of plagiarism or theft happens (meaning original content posted here is plagiarized or stolen), or if the owners of copyrighted content contact the site via official means to have it removed. Any representative of copyrighted content will know what "official means" is. If you post copyrighted content or if you steal original content posted here on Rescreatu, your account will be subject to warnings and/or banning.
Necroposting
Threads in the User Contests forum are not to be bumped after more than four (4) weeks of inactivity unless you are the person who started the thread. Exceptions to this rule will be made if you contact a Support Staff member to ask permission to revive the thread and your reason why you would like to do so. Ignoring this rule can result in warnings or a ban, as it will be considered spamming and/or trolling.
Content rating
The contents of anything posted in any forum must remain PG or below. Users of all ages are able to access our forums. If you post inappropriate content, your account will be subject to warnings and/or banning.
If you find inappropriate content anywhere, please report it to a Support or Moderator staff member.
Remember the site rules!
10. Excessive begging in any area of the website is prohibited and you may be warned or banned if you are found doing so. Begging includes asking for anything for free or at a value that is significantly less than the pet or item's worth.
Recently we've noticed a lot of contest threads popping up asking for donations to fund contests or raffles. While we understand the good-heartedness behind this, technically it is still begging according to our rules, and we can't allow this. If you want to ask for your raffle or contest to be funded, you must provide something in return.
Some ideas for things you can give in return are: a funny poem, a personalized note listing nice things about the person who is giving the funding, your own original art or banner you created (note that this is not ordered artwork, but something random given in return for the funding), or some other creation you have come up with. If it is your own work, and you put actual effort into it, it does not have an assigned value on Rescreatu and therefore it is considered a fair trade in exchange for funding in a legitimate contest or raffle situation.
