TCGRevolution is a place where anyone and everyone is welcome to join and be apart of our community. But, for this community to flourish, each member must comply and follow our guidelines.
First and foremost, please treat each other with respect. No matter how much you might dislike someone, or feel compelled to be rude, always remain respectful.
Flaming & Insulting
Under no circumstances is it condoned. Bashing your fellow community members is not only disrespectful, but will result in immediately consequences. Derogatory comments are not tolerable. Insulting Administrators/Moderators/Judges/Writers is also not acceptable. If you have a problem with any staff member, contact one our Admins or the reigning Head Moderator with your concerns.
Signatures & Avatars
-Your Signature cannot be used to Advertise without permission. If it is personal Blog/Youtube channels, we have sections for them.
-Your Signature/Avatar cannot include any subject that can be construed as sexist, racist, or generalized discriminatory material.
-Signature/Avatars cannot contain blatant sexual content.
-You cannot place names of members in your Signature who you will not trade/associate with.
-Avatars cannot contain obnoxious flashing or strobe lights. We don't want to trigger responses to Photosensitivity.
Bumping & Spamming
Bumping means to post on a thread you last replied in so it appears at the top of the forum. We allow bumping in such a manner once every twelve hours, unless stated differently in particular sub-forums. Not following this will be treated as a Double Post, and is not allowed. Double Posting repeatedly is a ban worthy offense. This is one of many offenses to be seen as "Spamming"
Spamming can be defined as "Stupid, Pointless, Self-Degrading, Annoying and without Conscious Thought." TCGRevolution will not stand for such pointless shit populating our forum. The following will be seen as spam 99% of the time;
-DO NOT address a specific person or persons. If you want to contact one person, use our private messaging system, email address or other forms of contact.
-DO NOT type in all capital letters; this is considered shouting. This applies to both Thread Topics, and Thread Replies. (Do not type in mostly capital letters either ;-)
-DO NOT bash our site or other people's sites. Many people work hard on their respective websites.
-"Cool Story Bro" is spam. Mindless Meme references are also Spam.
Necroposting
Necroposting is the act of posting on a thread where the last post was over 30 days previous. Necroposting is flat out spam, and will be reported to the Administration if the problem becomes a consistent one. You WILL receive infractions which lead to BANS. The following exceptions have been made for Necroposting;
-Deck Type Discussion Threads
-Sticky'd Threads
-Site Guideline Threads
-Announcements (Provided they are forum wide threads previewed in the "Announcement" plug-in)
Swearing
Swearing is tolerable as long as it is kept to a minimal; keep it classy ladies and gents. Derogatory terms, however, will NOT be allowed under any circumstances.
Illegal Material
Illegal Material is NOT to be posted on this message board. This includes:
-ROMs, links to file sharing sites that ANY distribute copyrighted material (including fansubbed anime).
-Posting materials soliciting involvement in illegal business schemes.
-Anything dealing with hacking, cracking, phreaking, and keygens.
-Providing or linking to software viruses, trojan horses, or any other computer code, files, or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment.
-Any pornographic/hentai/shock site related materials.
-Impersonating another person or entity of our staff, other members, or a company representative. This includes falsely stating or otherwise misrepresenting your affiliation with a person or entity.
-Any violation of private property such as full names, residential or business address, phone numbers, social security numbers, credit card numbers, e-mail address, pictures of subject or subject's family/friends/pets/place of residence or employment/study, IP address, and any passwords.
Trading
Our community will be supplying mediums to trade with members internationally. You can find our Trading Guidelines in the YGO Trading Section.
Flooding
Flooding can be described as posting repeatedly/rapidly in a fashion that disrupts the normal order of our website. Whether in conjunction with yourself or others, all those involved will be banned permanently.
We here at TCGRevolution uphold Freedom of Speech, and back such rights with authority. However, we will remove any content that borders on slanderous, or otherwise conflicts with the rules above. Freedom of Speech is a right to voice opinion without prosecution, not to hate monger or otherwise put down others.
TCGRevolution.com reserved the right to change and alter the rules as we see fit, in any situation without discretion. By registering to our site, you have agreed to uphold these guidelines and all the weight that comes with them. You agree to abide by them, and any post made by staff enforcing rules.
