[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated Forum Rules of Conduct

Postby Viking Sarah » Thu May 16, 2019 4:31 pm

Hey YoFans!

I'd like to direct your attention to the top of your Forum screen, where you will notice a brand new Global Announcement: YoWorld Forum Rules of Conduct (viewtopic.php?f=2&t=197162#p4368030)

The YoWorld Forums Rules of Conduct were last created and updated in 2014, and we felt it was time to revisit them. Overall, the rules have generally stayed the same, but there have been some minor adjustments, including but not limited to:

  • Addition of Reporting section
  • Clear definition of what the Rules of Conduct are with no more confusing Guidelines ("Are guidelines rules? Are guidelines ..... only guidelines? Are guidelines set in stone?")
  • Re-phrasing of some Rules to circumvent any confusion or uncertainty

In order to ensure your YoWorld Forums experience is a pleasant one for all, we suggest reading through the updated Rules of Conduct. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us!

Thanks! We :heart: you!

LOL The rules of conduct have been a giggle for me ever since I signed up in here. I busted one of the original ninjas for unfairly and cruelly trolling players and breaking the rules, and ever since that first temp ban (awww my virginity! LOL) I have been a rules giggler. Ah the good ole days.......

:devil:

Define "nice".

Also, do these rules apply to everyone? I know the old ones didn't, so just wondering.
Complaining about someone's post is not an opinion, it's a complaint.
