3. Clarity of threads and posts
To ensure, that the forum is as informative a possible, you need to follow those guidelines before creating threads and posts.
3.1 Before you post a new topic, make sure that the Forum does not already exist with the same theme and / or identical content. Title of each topic must meet the content of topics. It is necessary to create threads only in the relevant sections.
Sanctions
If users neglect this rule, the Moderators can contact them and ask them to change / edit the subject and / or message to make it comply with the rules of the forum. Moderators can also edit your own / edit / move / combine subject and / or message.
3.2 You need to choose a meaningful title to explain the topic in few words.
3.3 You are not allowed to answer directly to your own posts. You need to use the “edit” function to delete, change or add content.
3.4 You are just allowed to quote the statement you are directly referring to.
3.5 You are not allowed to create posts without a direct connection to the thread.
4. Additional Rules of the Guild forum
4.1 To make the guild presentations as informative as possible, you need to at least mention the following:
- The guild name must be mentioned in the thread title
- The name of a contact for applications needs to be mentioned in the first post
4.2 You´re not allowed to present a guild, if you are not a member of it. You are also not allowed to post into the presentation of such guilds.
4.3 You are just allowed to create posts that contain news of the guild.
In this following cases, rule 3.3 is suspended. These are:
- Changes within the guild (e.g. renaming of the guild, change of hierarchy, new skills etc.)
- Event announcements (dates of guild events, guild activities)
4.4 The thread creator and/or guild leader is allowed to request unwanted posts deleted by the moderators.
5. Multi-Accounts
5.1 You are allowed to create just one forum account. This also applies, if the account is temporarily or permanently banned.
5.2 If several persons of the same household are creating a forum account, a moderator needs to be informed, before a post is created with the latest registered account.
6. Reports to the team
The “report” function shall be used for violation of rules only.
6.1 You are not allowed to contact more than one team member in separate private messages regarding the same topic within 48 hours. But you may include more than one recipient in one single message.
6.2 You are not allowed to reports bugs in public in the forum – you need to report them directly to a team member.
If you violate one of these rules, the moderators can inflict restrictions on your account. The moderator will inform the user in question via private message about the reason of those sanctions. A violation of those rules can lead, depending on the frequency and seriousness, to the following sanctions:
- Renaming / merging of topics
- Removing content
- Restriction of forum functions (e.g. Avatar or signature)
- Blocking of an forum account
- Blocking of the game account(s)
- Granting a house ban
Complaints about warnings or forum account bans can be addressed to the moderator-team or via Customer Support.
Furthermore you need to abide to the terms of use and the naming conventions . If the terms of use just mention “the games” or “the game”, than those rules apply to this forum as well. In case of contradictions between forum rules and the terms of use you need to abide to the forum rules.
These guidelines may be subject to change and additions.
Thank You!
