Forum Rules

Here are some warnings (moderators may follow these).

Strike One- Not all that serious, you may have been caught flaming, or something of that nature. You will receive a pm from the Moderator/Junior Admin/Admin that put you on Strike 1 explaining why. (Note: Once you get a strike, you have it, and its not going away, so DON'T go crying about it trying to get rid of it)

Strike Two- This will happen if you have received a strike one and continue to flame, spam, ect. You will once again receive a pm from the Moderator/Junior Admin/Admin that caught you, and you can consider yourself on PROBATION. You will receive an automatic 2 day ban for this.

Strike Three- You're out of here! The admin will call up a few Moderators/Junior Admins/Admins and discuss your case, you WILL get banned, may it be temporary or permanent. It is all up to them on the length, it may be 24 hours, or 2 years, it all depends on what you have done

* NO HACKS FOR HALO MULTIPLAYER CLIENT SIDE (Wireframe, debug camera)
* No saying, "woot first post" or anything related to having the first post, 100th post, or any number
* No double posting, we are very lenient in this, but never double post in a thread begging for feed back
* No Bumping old topics, unless you have something important or worthwhile to say. Minimum wait time is one month for a bump of your/someones topic.

* Going to the edge of any of these rules (for example, flaming, but not enough to get you in trouble on on specific occasion) multiple times over a long period of time is called being a jerk. Don't be a jerk or there will be consequences (i.e. a ban, either temporary or permanent based on each individual case)
* If spambots join the forum. We ask that you do not respond to these spambots unless it is completely necessary. They are programmed to make topics, and that is it. Please do not tell them to leave, as they cannot respond to you and they are not an actual person. If you notice a link posted by a spambot contains a virus, please post. Please just report spambot advertisements when you see them.
