Allright, we all hate reading rules but since it's a necessity we'll try to keep it simple.

1. No Flaming
Please respect other members and do not post insults against another member and try to keep posts non-spiteful. Flaming isn't tolerated here, not even in PMs. If anyone sends you a harassing PM then please tell one of the Giant Oranges and we'll deal with it as we see fit.

2. No Spam
If you want to advertise your place, put it in the Leaflet section only. Also, you can't just advetise your stuff or spam us and leave. You also can't simply post here at the Grove just to spam or advertise. You must post in other sections as well. Any such spam will be deleted or placed in the composte heap.

3. Keep Personal Matters Off The Board
Do you have a personal grudge against another member? Do you not like someone or did some board members have a personal argument? If so please keep this off the boards and keep it for emails and IMland.

4. Warnings
Disobey the rules, display discouraged behaviour excessively and/or piss the Giant Oranges off and you will be issued with a warning. However, don't expect to get an unlimited amount of simple warnings. Overdo it and you will be banned.

5. No Porn!
Adult material must be kept in the designated sections. To post adult material you have to be 16 years or over and be a member of the P Animal Group. No nudity or vulgarity outside of the specific sections and read the forum-specific rules in the designated sections! Out and out vulgar naked pictures and porn videos are forbidden and will be deleted.

6. Keep It In The Right Section
All threads must be in the right section for its subject. Threads in the wrong section will be moved, no questions asked.

7. Regarding Attachments
Please do not attach any viruses, adult content, spyware, etc. No .exe files.

8. Regarding art
If it's not your work then say so. If possible mention whose work it is.

The Following Are Discouraged:

1. Excessive (i.e. you can do it for fun but too much of it is not allowed) leetspeak, binary talk and other languages that most users don't understand, and use of capitals
2. Negative attitudes and hostility
3. Double posting

The Following Are Encouraged:

1. An accepting community environment
2. Fun!

Thanks,
Your Friendly Giant Oranges
