Before you post, please read the entire thread before posting. And before you read, please know that these are/were not THE OFFICIAL RULES that were posted here, these are just small edits.
-------
1. The mod(s) is always in charge of the forums. What the mod says, goes.
2. If you have a question about any of these rules, or if you have a question about your ban, PM a mod or contact info@roblox.com. Do not post about your ban on the forum. If you post about your ban on the forum, you may get banned again. (by a mod)
3. You are expected to abide by the spirit of these rules. What does that mean? That means that if the rule says "Do not talk about purple things" and you post talking about violet things, or lavender things, then you will get banned. (No, you are not being forbidden from talking about purple things. That was just an example). Do not try to find loopholes in the rules. You will be banhammered if you do. (by the mods)
4. Don't cuss. Period. It has no place in our community. Attempts to disguise bad language or bypass the language filters will not be tolerated. (by me OR the mods, even though I`m not a mod)
5. Don't be a jerk. You’re welcome to disagree with another member’s opinion but attacking (aka. flaming) and/or insulting another member is not acceptable. Intentionally starting flame wars WILL cause you to be banned for a while. (by the mods (AGAIN))
You can say "I disagree, and here is why". You can NOT say "I disagree and I think you suck". You can say "I do not like racing games". You can NOT say "This player has built a racing game and I hate it".
5. No personal attacks.
5a. What is a personal attack? A personal attack is when you post about a Roblox player on the forum and talk about them in a negative way. This includes announcing that somebody scammed you, or that somebody is a hacker. DO NOT NAME NAMES. Linking to their profile is roughly the same as naming their name and will be treated as so. (by the mods)
6. No degrading racial comments are allowed. I shouldn't even have to say this. (neither should the mods.) Seriously, you guys. Don't hate.
7. No inappropriate references. There’s no question that Internet is full of degrading inappropriate material and comments. Roblox is fully G-rated, and it must be KEPT that way. This will get you instantly banned. (by the mods, of course) If you are not sure if the thing you want to talk about it okay to talk about, PM a mod and ask. This means no talking about anything R-rated, drugs, or any dating topic (including furries).
7a. Do not respond to threads with inappropriate topics. If you do find an inappropriate thread, report it and then ignore it.
8. No Politics. No Religion. We prefer that members not get involved in political or religious discussions because they often result in flaring tempers and flame wars. Yes, you may make a religious or political shirt. Yes, you may make a religious or political game. No, you may not talk about your political views or religious ideals on the forum. No exceptions.
9. No “this vs. that” posts (ie Ford vs Chevy). These types of threads invoke strong opinions, flaring tempers, and often result in flame wars and mass penalties. These threads will ultimately end up being deleted.
10. No whining about moderation This mostly applies to the operation and moderation of the online community. Members will be banned, threads removed, and so on based on the clearly defined rules. Publicly bemoaning the operation of the community and the way the rules are enforced will not put you in good favor with the moderators. If you have a legitimate concern or suggestion, PM a moderator. This also includes "pity threads", meaning ones proclaiming you're leaving, my cat died, etc.
10a. Do not post or discuss your ban history.
11. No spamming. akdjfaskhj is spam. Posting the same thing over and over is spam. Responding to somebody with a short pointless comment like tl;dr or inb4b& is spam AND it's rude. Don't do this. If you are going to take the time to post on the forum, make sure that you actually have something to say.
11a. Post things on the appropriate forum. Scripting questions go on Scripting Help. Discussion about TV shows (including My Little Pony and stuff like that) goes on Movies/Books/TV. (no, I am not a brony, i was just making an example) If you are not certain which forum you should post on, PM a mod and ask. Posts posted on the wrong forum may be moved or deleted without warning. Repeat posts may be flagged as spam.
12. No dangerous or harmful posts. Posts that encourage members to participate in real-world activities that we deem to be harmful or dangerous to members will be deleted (i.e. lighting things on fire, jumping cars over people, deleting necessary computer files, etc.).
13. [REDACTED] You may talk about directly competing games.
14. No dating topics. This isn't a dating help site. Keep topics about dating and relationships, be it online or not, out of here. Do not post asking for girlfriend advice. Do not post asking for a boyfriend. Do not post talking about the cute girl or boy in your class. Do not post asking how to ask somebody out. There are a lot of places online where you can talk about dating: Roblox is not one of those places. If you are not sure if it's okay to post, do not post it.
15. No Trading money. Use the RoblEX for currency trades (My ROBLOX --> Money --> Trade Currency) and the Trade System for item trades. No other trading is permitted. THIS INCLUDES RAFFLES, PLAYER-RUN CONTESTS, GIVE-AWAYS, ETC. These are NOT allowed. You may, however, talk about the collectible item trading system, but Let`s Make a Deal is the most appropriate place to talk about trading items.
16. No offsite links. At all. None. No wikipedia, no YouTube, no fan sites. If the address does not start with http://www.roblox.com/, then you may not post it here. No exceptions.
17. Just because you know somebody who broke a rule and didn't get banned does not mean that you get to break that rule, too. Instead of complaining how unfair the mods are, go report the person who got away with breaking the rule.
18. Do not talk about 2012/the end of the world/Armageddon. Some people get scared at the thought of the end of the world. There are little kids on this game - don't scare them.
19. These rules are not official as of the posting of this thread. These are just a few edits.
20. Click the TERMS AND CONDITIONS link at the bottom of the screen and read all the rules there. Then click the COMMUNITY GUIDELINES link and read all those rules, too.
21. If you don`t support please give a reason. Once again, THESE RULES ARE NOT OFFICIAL. |
