Are you really allowed to advertise in your sig?

We'll have to wait for Rich to review and ratify it....

Probly wont accept it

It's only one URL. Since the member will have to post liberally to get the message spread, both sites are benefiting. I decided to restrict it to one in respect for the other VGN sites.

Good point

And what do you have to contribute?

I dont know...

Well no making pointless posts

Ok, i get the point

Quick update: I've set rules for the Teams and Clans Board. This is an excerpt from what I set for the Greatglitch Forums Teams Board:

----------------------------------------------------------
First of all, remember that you are part of a group. Whatever you do will be viewed as the objective of the group or groups that you belong to. If you say that your team is forcing you to do acts that are against the rules or decrees set by the administration, you will endanger the credibility of the team or teams that you belong to. Similarly, you should avoid joining a team that has a reputation for criminal or disruptive acts, as such a reputation is likely to affect you personally.

For people forming teams, clans, or cliques, you shold consider that we will be monitoring each team to ensure that all activities within the team are in keeping with the rules. That is, you are not to initiate, propagate, wage, or fuel any war with another team for any reason whatsoever. Likewise, you should allow members to associate with people from other groups, and you should accept members from any demographic, regardless of race, colour, creed, gender, disability, or anything else that does not affect the effective administration of the Greatglitch forums.

If we find any member to run afoul in our sole perspective of the rules regarding team formation and activity, we will take steps necessary to prevent a recurrence. In extreme cases, we may see fit to ban members from forming or acting in teams. Team members reserve the right to refuse membership to members that are under these restrictions, and we encourage them to do so.

For your reference, the forum rules are located at the top left-hand corner of each page on the navigation bar.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Since Super Cheats is different from Invisionfree there will be some changes required.

Umm...delete this part plz

"Although I personally don't like the idea of teams and cliques forming on the forums, it was Niko's decision to create an area for them, and judging by my career of seeing teams banned on other sites for social offences I believe we need to set some social rules across"

I don't think we need it, and what are the SC forums powered by? Just curious...

What are you talking about? Rich let you set the rules and have them hang proudly around here?... Congats, Crossy. I mean it. I'm not being sarcastic.

Yeah good job Crossy, your good at making and enforcing rules...

Thanks Crossy - Sorry for the dalay in officially adding them to the site. I will make time to do it this coming week, along with any amendments.

Thanks again.

Rich
