Posting Guidelines

• Please try to keep posts appropriate for younger teenage eyes to view (Things you'd be comfortable sharing with a 13 year-old).
• Do not post advertisements.
• One exception is for products or services that relate to entries on this site. And even then, only post an announcement once. You should add links or content to the appropriate database entries. Do not repeat this information to the message board. Doing so will be considered spamming.
• Do not post direct links to complete copyrighted works. Links provided by (or approved by) the copyright holder may be exempt.
• Do not plagiarize.
• Do not post messages in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS.
• Do not attack a user for improper spelling and/or grammar. Not all of our community uses English as their native language.
• Please post in English, or include an English translation, when possible.
• Please do not stray (far) from the topic of the original post.
• Please keep the conversations civil. Do not 'attack' other posters.
• You may attack an individual's comments but not the individual.
• Do not pretend to be someone that you are not. Using an online alias is ok.
• Be polite, courteous, and respectful.
• If a poster provides their contact information for any reason, do NOT clutter the Message Board by asking them to contact you. They gave out their contact information for a reason.
• When starting a New Message Thread, please include details about your topic of discussion or request in the Subject field to help draw in readers who are interested and avoid wasting the time of those who are not. Also helpful in searching for the topic/thread later.
• No begging. Ask nicely.
• If seeking material / information, include the results of your own efforts so that others can offer better help (and avoid wasting time and effort on redundant searches).
• Do not feed the trolls and spammers. Please ignore them.
• Do not keep asking for clips after others have already posted information on where to obtain the material.
• If you post a link, please provide some detail as to what it is. Identify the material if possible.
• Please post clear spoiler warnings if you intend to give away details that would spoil the story for those who have not yet seen the material, preferably by using the <spoiler> tags (don't forget to close the spoiler text with the </spoiler> end tag).
• No bumping. Bumping a thread is considered as bad manner here, since it doesn't add anything to the discussion of the thread. Bumping will be treated as intentional spamming the site and the post will be deleted, and the user did the bumping will be noted for future reference, ie. enter into the board's naughty users list.
