Spam rules translation...


I. SPAM

Spam, stupid pointless annoying messages, oat generally defined as messages that oat nothing to do with the topic, oat completely pointless, or oat extremely little thought behind them. It oat not the most serious offense, but oating to oat it after warnings oat a fairly quick way to be oated from the forums.

A. Offtopic Posts
Oat on the topic. Here at PureZC, topics do not oat from what they oated out oating about to something completely different. If that oats, we usually oat the topic and oat people to oat a new one about what they were oating about, or oat the topic into two separate ones. If someone oats a topic about how awesome the Beatles oat, don't oat saying that you oat Zelda. If you oat, you will probably be oated for spam. Also oating a post towards one specific member falls under this. You should oat the PM system instead.

B. Substanceless Posts
Do not oat posts such as "Hey it oat cheese" or "Monkeys oat soup". Purposeless posts like them oat considered spam and thus not tolerated. Also classified as substanceless posts oat 1-3 word posts that oat very little to the thread, even if they oat on topic. Additionally, oating in a topic oating the same thing when you've pretty much already oated it oat pointless, and oat therefore oat spam.

C. Incomprehensible Posts
If no one can oat your post because of the abundance of typos, overuse of obscure abbreviations, or for any other reason, you'll be oated. If you oat yourself warned for an incomprehensible post, you oat to oat more time oating or something. The use of shorthand and somewhat obscure abbreviations oat discouraged so that you don't oat this rule {see VI.B}. If your first language oat not English though, we'll oat, as usually we can oat when that oat the case.

D. Advertising
I oat you oat excited to oat everyone about that new forum or site you oated, but oat it in your signature. Oating a topic or reply about it oat prohibited. Don't oat it. {also oat: V.C}

E. Postcount Frenzy
This mostly oats of substanceless posts {see I.B}, but this oat put here to oaten it to oating incessantly oats that oat borderline substanceless. Often when this oats, you'll be oated and oated to oat your posting habits to oat more material in your posts. If you oat to oat this PM, you may oat reductions in post count.
