General Pokemon Discussion Rules

Read before posting a thread

(This is only a prototype of the rules, these will be re-created when moderator is appointed)

________________________________________________

1. Global forum rules still apply

Just like all other sections here, we still need to follow the main Pokestar Studios forum rules, found here. Failure to follow the rules may result in infractions and/or bans.

2. No spamming, harassing or trolling

One of the things I don't like is seeing users post short, irrelevant messages just to boost post count. You might also be making a member feel upset, and we don't tolerate that. Repeated offences may result in infractions or bans depending on the severity.

3. More than 4 words when posting

Please no posting short messages. Posts need to be at least 4 words long as this is a discussion-based section. If you want to post spam, do it in the spam thread located in Other Games & Trivia.

4. No bumping older threads

Even though we are still a young forum, the no bumping dead threads rule applies here too. If a thread has been inactive for 30 days, don't post in it and remake the thread instead.

5. No duplicate threads

To ensure your topic is not already brought up, use the search function and if there is already an active thread, post in that thread. Duplicate threads can create clutter and we don't want that at all.

6. Pokemon anime-based threads do not go here

These types of threads go in the Pokemon Anime subforum. Any threads not related to General Pokemon Discussion will be moved to its appropriate section or locked.

7. No Mini-Modding

Remember, if you see a thread or post that is in the wrong section or out of place, don't try and correct the problem yourself. Instead, contact a staff member via VM or PM and they might help you. Mini-modding can get you in trouble and we don't want that happening don't we?

These rules are subject to change at any time, even if a moderator is appointed for this section so stay tuned for any updates.
