Any members who are underaged and get caught will be banned from the forum.
New Members should introduce themselves in this catergoy.
New Members should ask me or a moderator for help if they do not know what to do on the forum.
NEVER GIVE OUT YOUR PASSWORD TO ANYONE, even if the person asks nicely. If he/she won't leave you alone about that, PM (private message) me or one of the moderators and we will ban the user from the forum.
No flaming (that means no insulting other moderators, and myself). If someone is flamming at you, PM me or a moderator and we'll take care of it. If you want to debate or argue, go to the Coco Court, but you have to have a Coco Bandicoot fan lawyer or moderator with you.
If you want to talk with one user in particular, PM him/her.
You can say "hell" or "damn" as swears, but if a user is using other swears, they will get punished (depending on the situation).
DO NOT post anything sexual/pornographic words or images. There are users who are under the age of 18 in this forum and besides, this is a "Coco Bandicoot forum", not Playboy.
You can only advertise a website on your signature or the Adertisements section on the forum, but make sure it isn't innapropriate or illegal.
It's okay to go a little off-topic on a subject (that's okay), but do not go way off-topic, or else the topic will go to the Bad topics section.
No spamming (that means unwanted junk mail). Here are different types of spamming:
1) Posting off-topic without any reason. 2) Posting way too BIG or way too small 3) Posting the same reply twice in a row without saying sorry 4) Bumping into threads older than 45 days old (unless you were in the topic under 45 days ago). 5) Posting too many emoticons or excessive exclaimation marks (unless you're playing the "Ramdom Word" game on a "Ramdom Word" topic).
Do not post after yourself. If you made a mistake on you last post on a topic, the edit button is always availible for you to use (but you cannot edit other user's posts uless you're a moderator or me).
You are allowed to have only one account. If you make another one, you have to tell a moderator to delete your older account first or both your accounts will be deleted.
Do not have an extremely large signature because other users will have a hard time scrolling forever to reply to topics. Try to keep it short.
If topics were usless, innapropriate or have less than 5 replies, those kind of topics will either be deleted or sent to the Bad section, depending on what the topic is about.
Treat other users the way you want to be treated. It's called RESPECT.
If you see anyone breaking the rules, PM me or a moderator, but do not take care of the problem yourself or else you will be punshed, too.
Punishments for Breaking the rules - The first is a warning -the second is another warning -the third is a three-day suspinsion from the forum -the fourth is a week suspinsion from the forum -the fifth is being BANNED form the forum
