Rules

* No Flaming/Trolling/Harrassing. This means that you are not allowed to post hateful, racist, abusive or harassing remarks. GAIA is a community and we all need to treat each other fairly and with respect.
Trolling/Flaming will get you an official warning. Repeated offenses will result in a 3 day and then a 14 day ban. If you still continue after that, you could get a permanent ban

* Cyber/Porn/Explicit Images:
GAIA is a PG-13 site, so any sexual content, explicit or graphics images or cybering (roleplay or description of sexual acts) is not permitted ANYWHERE on GAIA. This INCLUDES PM's, multiplayer games (casino, fishing), hangouts and Gaia Towns. Posting things of this nature will get you banned.

* No Spamming:
Spamming is when you go into a thread and post gibberish, nonsense or something that has no relelvance to the topic. Spam belongs in the chatterbox and reported spamming can get your account banned, so don't do it outside of the chatterbox.

* Chainletters/28g posts:
These are a huge no-no. Any post/letter where it encourages you to "pass it on to your freinds" or "send this to everyone or we will delete you account" is considered a chainletter and is not allowed on GAIA. Posting chainletters will get your posts deleted and a warning on your account. Repeated posting of chainletters can get you banned.

28g/14g posts are also not allowed. The posts are really long and usually say that if you post it, it will give you a certain amount of gold. These posts are not true. The length of your post does not determine your gold count. These posts interrupt the flow of conversation in a thread and are highly irritating. Posting these can get you warned and then banned.

* Copy/Paste Posts:
These are posts that you copy and paste over and over in threads. These are considered spam and constantly posting them after being warned can result in a ban on your account. Take the time to type out unique responses to the various threads you visit. It shows that you care!

* Spamming/Bumping
Bump stands for Bring Up My Post. When you post in a thread, it essentially "brings that thread to the top of the forum page". The further up on the page your topic appears, the more likely people are to see it. So when someone says "bump" they are just wanting to bring that thread back up to the top of the page. Be careful when bumping. Most forums do not allow it or only allow it in certain circumstances. In the Welcome forum, you can only bump a thread if it is a question and it has fallen off the first page without being answered. You can bump as much as you want in any thread in the Chatterbox Forum though smile

* Stretching the page:
Do not post overly long messages or overly large images that "stretch" the page. It interrupts conversation and makes it difficult to read and discuss things in a thread when you have to scroll over to see the rest of the message. These kinds of posts are against the Terms or Service and will be deleted by a member of the GAIA moderator team. You can also be warned or banned for repeated offenses.

* Unspoken Rules
There are things in the forums that may not be considered "against the rules" but may irritate other posters. This section will outline some of those "unspoken rules".

* Posting in all capital letters:
Posting your entire post in capital letters will irritate people pretty quickly. It is considered shouting. You wouldn't go up to someone and start shouting at them would you? So please don't do it in the forums either.

impolite

HELLO THERE HOW ARE YOU? DO YOU LIKE IT HERE?

Try it like this:

polite

Hello there, how are you? Do you like it here?

* Using too many emoticons:
Emoticons are fun to use and cute too but using too many of them can clutter up a post and detract from what you are trying to say. For example

too many emoticons

Hi how you?? heart heart heart domokun domokun domokun eek eek xd lol xp

Try it like this:

better way

Hi, How are you? heart biggrin
