Forum Guidelines

By registering and posting in this forum you are agreeing to these terms, as well as our disclaimer and our terms of use, and are also agreeing that the Decadent Gamer staff may suspended, delete, ban, blacklist, lock, or edit your account for any reason, even if there is no reason.

Strictly enforced rules:

Respect the fellow members and admins. Show courtesy and co-operation to the admins. There is no special treatment for anyone

The staff will take all variables into account with arising issues, and deal with them in regard to fairness and equality.

-Do not advertise, spam, or abuse the site or its members in any way. This includes, but is not limited to:
  • PM spamming:
    (to send a mass amount of pm's in order to advertise, torment, or other wise hurt anybody)
  • defacing the site in the form of a post:
    (Using html in a reckless manner to destroy or otherwise alter the tables in place, or by affixing audio. This can only be
    used in the programming forum, in which case can be used to a limited degree)
  • Posting a topic striving to recruit members to your site:
    saying, "how good it is" without permission. If you have created a site that you think is really worth going to,
    try posting some of the content that is owned by you on here, as it can help your stats, posts, and chance of becoming a forum superior increase.
    If we feel it is deserving enough, we will tell you that it's alright to attract members.
  • Spamming or increasing your post count in a cheap way:
    (to access extra forums or for any other personal or non-personal induction.)


Do not threaten this site, its members, or any other persons in any way. Plans to hack, spam, or diversely destroy anything is strictly prohibited. Anything illegal or else mentioned will be dealt with appropriately.

Do not swear excessively, post obscene, vulgar, or sexual content, or post anything that is any way racist, sexist, or alternatively discriminating to any race, individual, group or type of people, written or copied, on purpose or "not on purpose" EVER.

User's are encouraged and have the right to report anything that happens to them on the forum, being something that is posted somewhere or sent privately to them using the PM system. We have access to ALL personal messages that are sent, but we will not read them unless for a compelling reason, such as bullying or inequality. Simply send a message to an admin if you have observed the, or been the victim of any such concern.

DO NOT PLAGIARIZE!!! If content is taken from an outside site, we strongly urge you to put any authentic information in the quote, /quote tags, or by using "" (unless modified oneself, in which case a link or reference should be given).<!--colorc--><!--/colorc-->



Here are some basic rules about posting:


-Don't bump old topics. It's common sense! If you accidentally bump an old topic, please edit your post saying so, otherwise you will receive either a warning (a moderator/admin asks you please not to do that, your warn% does not go up), or an increase in warn%

-Use the search feature. It's there for a reason.

-Refrain from using one-worded posts, such as, "Lol" or "*Emotion goes here* or, "ROFLCOPTER OMGZ!", etc.

-Make your posts so that other people may read them. Try posting literately, and don't speak in 1337 (leet) speak, jibberish, illiterate talk ("Plz hlp. i tryed 2 eat pie and my kity 8 it 1st" etc).

-Don't bypass the bad word filter. It's put in place for a reason. Any bypassing will result in a warning.

-This is [for the majority] an English-based forum, so please try to speak in your best English if you don't speak it that well. If you don't speak English well, try using a translator to translate your text to English.



Making a new topic:


a. Keep your thread titles simple - Thread titles like "H3LPZ PLZZZZ," T4K3 A L@@K," are not permitted and will be closed until you make another with complete grammar. It makes it harder for people to understand you if you can communicate properly.

b. Do not make multiple threads of the same content - If you have a question to ask: Sit. Tight. Making more threads will result in them getting removed, and if you continue to spam, we will make necessary actions.

c. Threads must not contain any closely or directly related to these topics:
  • Host Booting/Flooding (Discussion & Program)
  • Warez
  • Advertisements/Referrals
  • Porn/Explicit Content
  • Suspension/Banning Of A Member (Discussing is only between the member and staff)
  • Username/Passwords/IP/Credit Cards
  • Ridiculous Content
  • Premium Content (Non-Premium Members)
  • Trading Accounts/Microsoft Points


Any threads that revolve around those type of topics are to be reported immediately.

d. Make sure you post in the correct section - When asking for help, make sure you do it in the help/support section of that forum. If a topic is in the wrong section, or you feel it is, just report the post. Don't mini-mod and yell at the person for doing so.


Shoutbox Rules


-Don't spam
-Don't use massive BBC codes (making fonts very large, embedding YouTube videos, or any other videos, etc.), or massively long shouts.

In short, don't abuse the Shoutbox, or you will be banned.
