1. Low Tolerance
To ensure that this is a friendly and efficient community we have instilled a Low Tolerance policy. This means any user who does not follow the guidelines may be warned, post promptly removed or the user may be suspended or banned. We will do our best to make certain the user is informed why he or she has been suspended/banned and potential options for reinstatement. Our goal is to make this community young-person friendly while allowing gamers and business advocates alike to enjoy and participate.
2. Advertising
We do not allow any advertising by any user unless he or she has explicit written consent. Our understanding of advertising is posting links or information via public threads, profile walls or private messages alluding to services provided privately or commercially.
Advertising in Threads or Posts will be removed without warning.
What is considered "unacceptable" advertising?
- Creating threads or posts that serve only to promote a website or business (whatever that maybe);
- The posting of URLS, prices, names, phone numbers, etc. for a business or other community.
3. Cursing or Swearing
In our attempts to make this community friendly we must consider the use of language. We definitely understand that "light" cursing will occur and is acceptable. However excessive or unnecessary use, or "bad" language directed towards another user on the forums will not be tolerated. The posts will be removed and the user may be warned, suspended or banned.
Respect your fellow members. Please refrain from making inflammatory comments. Flaming, taunting, and overall disrespect is frowned upon. Simply putting down an opinion given by others is wrong. If you don’t agree with what they’re saying, state your reason why (but do so respectfully). Do not make uninvited remarks regarding typos or duplicate posts. Harassment is not necessarily limited to the language used but is also based upon intent.
4. No Illegal Content
Illegal content can be described as “warez”, nudity, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. We attempt to respect all private and public works and therefore do not allow any distribution of illegal content both directly or indirectly (posting links that lead to outside sources where any illegal content can be accessed). Please note, unauthorized leaks of any titles also fall under this category and will be treated as such. This also includes information illegally obtained. Additional links to cheats, hacks, or malicious software like viruses fall under this category.
5. No Religious, Political, or National Discussions
We are a melting pot community. We must respect religious choices of everyone regardless of what any one user believes is ultimately correct. Therefore we do not allow any religious or political discussions or endorsements of religious or political topics. Any discussion which promotes hatred, including national slurs, or
6. No Spamming
We define spamming as massive or unnecessary amount of posts of the same or relating to the same topic or link. Spam, off topic, unnecessary or grammatically illegible, indecipherable posts will be removed without warning. This also includes excessive amounts of similar or same phrases. Posts designed to cause unrest or disturbances, including but not limited to, picking fights and insulting other posters fall here.
7. No Discussion of Disciplinary Action
If someone you know has been suspended or banned and has asked you to post on their behalf ... DON'T! You can how ever message us on the forums to request more information for their suspension/ban. However if you post on their behalf you may face suspension or a ban as well. The staff team has the final say on anything. If you have an issue and would like to make an appeal, you may make a complaint to them directly and not publicly on the RevCraft community. Creating threads or posts that question or reference decisions made by the RevCraft staff team (like post removals or thread closures) is not allowed. Creating posts or threads that include chat logs and other correspondence between players and RevCraft staff is prohibited. We’re not perfect and if you feel that we have made an error, privately contact a member of the administration team and we will review the situation. Users who wish to express their comments or concerns can do so by messaging one of the staff on the forums.
8. No Flaming
Flaming is an excessive version of slander. It defines that a user is hostile and insulting another user. We do not allow any type of flaming. Please be aware that if you participate you are considered facilitating the flame war and may risk
being suspended or banned.
9. English please
This is an English-speaking community. We require that posted content be in the English language so that it can be both well received and properly monitored.
10. Cross-posting
Cross-posting is not allowed and will result in the removal of one or more posts. Cross-posting is defined as posting the same information in two or more locations. This also includes creating an additional thread about an existing topic for additional discussion in more than one area. When posting your topic, please try to post it in the most appropriate place within the structure of our community. Identical topics in the same or different forums may be removed without warning.
11. Report, don’t respond
In this community, you may occasionally encounter forum posts that violate our guidelines. Please use the Report Post function located at the bottom of every individual post. Explain the reasoning behind your report and then simply allow us to do our jobs.
Causing a posting violation in response to another posting violation doesn’t help your cause and the RevCraft staff may need to enforce disciplinary action on you as well.
12. Suspension circumvention
Users that have been banned or suspended who have been found posting on another account or having an individual posting on their behalf will face disciplinary action.
Freedom-of-speech rights do not extend to privately owned websites, such as the RevCraft community. The guidelines above outline the behaviour and activities allowed along with the possible disciplinary action taken.
Should a user violate our guidelines and show disregard for them, our administration team, and our community, they run the risk of getting a temp/ban or a reset of their account. We reserve the right to deactivate any account and to edit or remove any content without warning. These guidelines are subject to change at anytime without notice.
If you have a question about our guidelines, if you have a suggestion, wish to offer feedback, or are experiencing problems with the site, you may contact any member of the RevCraft staff team and we will help you in any way we can.
Repeat violations of any area of these Rules/Terms of Use and Code of Conduct can lead to Punishment including permanent bans or account reset.
Thanks.
