Forums rules - Please read before posting

[Philo]

Welcome in the Stray Fawn Studio Forums

We are happy to have you with us and hope you will enjoy your time here!
To make sure everybody gets along, we put together a few basic rules. Please make sure to read them and act accordingly.

Post/threads that involve the following content/behaviour will result in moderator action:

1) Political, ideological or religious posts likely to result in behaviors banned under rule 3)
2) Content unsuitable for children, e.g. nudity, sexually suggestive or explicit images, excessive violence, gore and drugs;
3) Insults and threats, stalking, bullying or any other behavior construed to be of a potentially rude, slanderous, accusatory, combative or otherwise harassing nature to/of another person;
4) Any discriminatory (racist, sexist, etc.) language, actions or iconography, with or without historical context;
5) Use of vulgarity, profanity, parts thereof (S***) and any similar technique to post vulgar or profane content;
6) Reposting closed or removed content without moderator consent. 
7) Think about your wording. If you don't like something, preferably use "I don't like" instead of "I hate", "... sucks", etc.
8) Continuously spreading negativity in the community.
9) Make sure to stay on topic and don't spam threads unless it's explicitly allowed.
10) Creating a new account while being banned will result in a permanent ban from the forums.

Also, please think carefully about posting personal information. This is an open forum where everybody can read what you are posting. So for situations that are of personal nature it's adviced to use private messages with people you trust.
If threads show a high potential of resulting in any of the behaviour mentioned above, moderators might close them.

@pebbleheart Yes, that's why we sat down and wrote some rules ^^
But it seems to me things are better now, do you think so too?

Thank you for taking this into consideration @Philo, I have removed my previous rant post from the fanart section so let’s all pretend that forum post didn’t exist...

[georgie]

yep
I've answered your question

[Philo]

@heyitsgeorgie
There are two types of possible bans: 
Not being able to post content or not being able to access the forums at all.

hey whilst im here you should add the no alt accounts rule because I think you said that a long time ago n it makes sense

[Philo]

@heyitsgeorgie
I think I said that it is confusing sometimes.
But as long as the alt account is also sticking to the forum rules, it should be fine I think?

If the point of an alt's creation is only to give its main account more reputation, is the alt account allowed?

Well, that is a good question, I haven't thought about that yet.
But I really don't recommend having an alt account just to gain reputation.

I don't think it should be allowed. That is cheating after all.

Also I did post a link to a drawing I made with blood/gore in it, but it was a link to my stash instead of right in the thread, is that allowed

[Aether]

So I guess this Alt acc. stuff means Evil Aether can't have her own account. Awww.... But this means I get to post stuff still on Aether's account  : D

I added a new rule that will lead to moderator action:
8. Continuously spreading negativity in the community.
If we feel that a person is continuously contributing towards a more negative feeling in the community, we will reach out to them. 
There will be a warning first, ultimately resulting in a ban if the behaviour is not improved.

Is this because of me or of other causes?

[Philo]

No particular person, just a feeling that the mood has shifted a bit and trying our best to keep this a friendly place

[bostonlobstah]

Thanks for adding that rule, Philo, that was something I was concerned about as well. This forum is my and probably many others’ escape, so seeing posts about how hard your life is on every thread is a bit depressing. Now I am in no way trying to discredit people’s insecurities and I’m not saying this can’t be a place to vent or come for support, but that should be more private and left to DMs or specific threads for comfort, I think.
Thank you for coming to my TED Talk. My DMs are always open btw ❤️
