GROUP RULES(2020-8-2):

Offenses: First offense will be a warning, Second will be a mute for 3 days, third will be a ban for a decided amount of time.

GROUP A: Severe Rules


The following rules are severe rules.  Breaking them will result in an offense (or possible mute/ban).

1a.  No spamming.  Spamming can be identified as an utterly useless, completely off topic comment or note.  It can also be identified as an overly long post that has no meaning(for example, too many of the same letters).  Long posts that have meaning, such as a long explanation, are acceptable.

    1aa.  Advertisement of anything(i.e. other groups, newest "Manhood Pill", etc.)   is not allowed, unless an admin says otherwise.  Advertising in designated forums is acceptable.

2a.  No repeated asking for adminship. One ask is enough. This rule stems from the fact that in the group's youth, too many people asked for adminship.  See exception 2a for exceptions.

3a.  No swearing.  This applies only to the big words: words like damn, hell, and crap are acceptable.

4a.  No pornographic material.  Keep things rated PG-13 and below.

5a.  Deliberately resigning in team match games will earn you an offense.

6a.  Follow all the Chess.com rules. Remember that this club is still in Chess.com. 

GROUP B: Non-severe rules


The following rules are non-severe rules.  Breaking them may or may not result in an offense, depending on the severity.  If the break is not severe, then it may result in the note or comment where the rule was broken to be deleted.

1b.  No personal attacks.  This means aggressive name calling, provocation, severe rudeness, etc.

2b.  No religious or political debate.

3b.  Keep things in their designated forums, i.e. don't post your daily Minecraft in the "How close am I to admin" forum.  If there is no forum that meets your standards, then create one.

    Converse 3b.  Do not create a forum to post something when there is already a forum for your post, i.e. don't create a new forum for your youtube channel, post it in the Youtube Channel forum instead.

4b.  Please do not cheat in forum games like "Minecraft Riddles". You will ruin the fun of the game. Please just answer with your knowledge

EXCEPTIONS TO THE RULES:


Exception 2a.  New members may not receive a strike if they ask for adminship too much.

Should we make using the especially foul four-letter words as an insta-ban?

Avatar of King_undercover_vamp

No, I don't think so.  Some people won't know the severity.  I myself walked into this group and posted an image that had the foulest four-letter word in it.Embarassed

Anyone with 2 strikes should get a warning message on their Notes section.

Just to make sure they don't do it again.

Avatar of FES314

Yes, but then there is the issue of an admin being blocked from the notes of the member

Avatar of leo123450

And no advertising other groups here. That should get you a strike. 

Avatar of King_undercover_vamp

Thanks, leo.  I'll put that in there.

Avatar of King_undercover_vamp

Rule 1aa lists advertising as spamming.

 This applies only to the big words: worlds like damn, hell, and crap

just ot ask, "heck" isn't a bad word right?

Avatar of FES314

nopeit does not count as a profanity

Avatar of FES314

I would like to propose an addition to the rules. Deliberately voting for bad moves in vote chess or deliberately resigning team match games without moving awards the offender a strike

Avatar of TonyZhao

yeah

Avatar of Minecraft1500

I agree

Avatar of King_undercover_vamp

That's gonna be pretty hard to keep track of.  How do we know who voted for bad moves?  We might do a strike for the team matchers, though.  I'll think about it.

EDIT: I've added the team match thing.

Anyone that wants to be admin HAS to read these rules, that should be another.

Avatar of Riptidejr

Another rule could be maybe that admins are not allowed to change tha avatar or properties of the group like theme. . . or other stuff like that

Avatar of ncnb
