Forum and In Game Rules Originally posted by Kurzod
Forum Rules
While we, the administrators and moderators of this forum, will attempt to remove or edit any generally objectionable material as quickly as possible, it just isn't possible to review every single message. Therefore, you acknowledge that all posts made to these forums express the views and opinions of the author and not the administrators, moderators or webmaster (except for posts by these people) and hence will not be held liable. In exchange for our sacrificing our time in helping to solve problems and manage disagreements, you agree to abide by the following rules.
The rules are generally very simple. In joining our forum you agree not to post anything abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented or any other material that may violate any applicable laws. Doing so may, and probably will lead to you being immediately and permanently banned (at least). The IP address of all posts is recorded to aid in enforcing these conditions. You agree that the webmaster, administrator and moderators of this forum have the right to remove, edit, move, or close any topic at any time should they see fit. As a user you agree to any information you have entered above being stored in a database. While this information will not be disclosed to any third party without your consent the webmaster, administrator and moderators cannot be held responsible for any hacking attempt that may lead to the data being compromised.
In-Game Rules
The same rules apply in-game that apply forumside. Carry yourself with a measure of dignity and common sense, and we'll all get along just fine. Keep trash talking on a friendly level. Ranking officers can't be in every game every night, so you acknowledge that we will handle whatever complaint or issue you may have as quickly as possible. Again: abusive, obscene, vulgar, slanderous, hateful, threatening, sexually-oriented, or otherwise obnoxious behavior simply will not be tolerated.
Lastly, remember that it's just a game, guys.

Simple Guidelines to follow:
Keep Your Cool
Yeah, it is really easy to lose your cool when you are playing an intense game of infection on halo, and you get a shotgun to your back. It may be aggravating but don't allow something like that to make you blow up and begin screaming and cussing everyone out. All it does is make you look bad. If someone specifically is bothering you, talk to someone who is at a higher rank, they will help you.
Be Considerate, Be Mature
Just because you are above the minimum age of thirteen does not mean you can go acting like an eight year old. You don't sound cool when you try to swear every other word, no we don't think its funny when you are constantly team killing, nor do we like it when you are screaming so loud or blaring your music through your mic that we cannot hear ourselves think. Think of others, don't be a tool.
Harassment
No one likes someone who is constantly being hateful to others. Simply said, it makes you look like a jerk. If you have a problem with someone, contact a leader rank to assist you, you never have to begin to cuss people out or try to do everything in your power to make their life miserable. If you don't like it get over it.
The same rules apply for sexual harassment. If you have the feeling you are making someone feel uncomfortable, back the off. Chances are you are making them uncomfortable. We take this rule very seriously and we will not tolerate ANY form of sexual harassment. If the problem consists, authorities WILL be notified.
Cheating Another obvious rule, no cheating. This means lag switching, boosting, modding, glitching, and exploiting errors in community content. Remember, you are representing EGO, by cheating, you make all of us look bad. If you have a problem with this rule, leave. On a side note, "cheating" in a way that does not effect other player unfairly, such as glitching in a game of Call of Duty Zombies, so you can get three guns, is considered fair game as long as nobody is being affected negatively.
If you feel that you are being harassed in any way, contact I Evil Turtle I, or Kurzod as soon as possible.
