Rules for Debates and Brainstorming

Be Literate: Proper grammar, punctuation, spelling, conventions, so on and so forth all the things that have to do with literate writing should be considered when posting anywhere in the guild. Being able to read and write properly is essential!

Be Respectful! : Treat others as individuals who have the right to their own beliefs, ideas, and feelings.

Be Focused: There is no reason to have a debate about whether or not unicorns exist on a "What is your favorite My Little Pony?" thread. You can, however, create that thread if you feel THAT inspired by the "What is your favorite My Little Pony" thread.

Get Your Facts Straight: Do a little research on your topic if you're going to have a stance on it. Asking questions is fine. Do NOT make false statements. We're all learning here and the last thing anyone needs is to be mistaken because of you.

So here's how the rules and penalty system work...

wahmbulance Banning is a serious matter. Members become ex-members at the discretion of the Captain and Vice Captain. If you have a reasonable explanation as to why you broke a particular rule, contact The Dreaded Warning with a clear explanation. Reasonable forgiveness is possible.

wahmbulance A violation of any rule in which you refuse to pay the fine is an automatic ban. All violation payments are to be made to The Dreaded Warning. Once a fine is paid that member may resume posting in the guild. Continuing to post with outstanding fines may result in banning.

wahmbulance The number of times a single member violates the rules in the last 30 calendar days serves as a multiplier for the initial fine of the rule that member violated. For example, if a member violates the rules on 2 separate occasions the first violation's specified fine will be multiplied by 1 and the second violation's specified fine will be multiplied by 2. The multiplier is reset after 30 calendar days have passed, which is started the day after the last violation.

wahmbulance Violation records are private and expunged after 3 months to the exact or nearest number date of the last violation. Ex: Violations that occurred on January 31st will be expunged on April 30th.

wahmbulance Automatic Ban r/t TOS - Some situations call for automatic ban and will result in the ex-member also being reported to Gaia Online. Actions that result in automatic banning can be found in Gaia Online's Terms of Service agreement, specifically under items "a" and "b" of "Prohibited Conduct".
