v1.0 - November 15th, 2009
The forum was built and then the rules were made 10 minutes in.

v1.2 - January 4, 2010
Giant rule addition added. They are in effect as of now and all posts made previously will subject to these rules.

Under new circumstances, I have decided to add the following rules in-

Posting

While debating and discussion is fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Try to also stay on topic. However, please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one word (or short) non-sense posts, or the such.

Advertising is not allowed. This includes using the forum and private message systems to spam other members.

Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed. Only the thread creator can post repeatedly and only in the case of an update to the thread. Bumps are allowed once per week.

We also do not allow posts or links to sites that are sexual in nature. This will be a complete deletion of your posts, all that quote them, and the username itself, including IP and e-mail address.

Each member is allowed only one login account.

We reserve the right to remove offensive posts without notice.

If you are going to post non-English on these forums, please also post an English Translation of your post, unless if it is placed in the board of that specific language.

Posts discussing moderator actions are allowed, however only if the moderator creates an announcement through me that this is proper.

You cannot post any affiliate or referral links, or post anything asking for a referral. Such posts will be subject to removal. You also cannot post advertisements or notices for contests, unless on an affiliate site.

Signatures

A link and promotional text for a site that is not commercial and does not contain product(s) and/or service(s) is allowed, provided the site is not sexual or does not violate this forum or forumotion's community standards.

Duplicate links to the same URL in a signature are not allowed if the owner knows of this.

For images in signatures: a total up to 500 pixels wide, 200 pixels tall of combined pictures. However, if you were to place an image 200 pixels wide and 100 pixels high one on top of the other, it would equal to be 200 pixels wide and 200 pixels high, not 400 pixels wide and 200 pixels high.

From Moderation- what did you agree to

Although the administrators and moderators of My Nintendo News will attempt to keep all objectionable messages off this forum, it is impossible for us to review all messages. All messages express the views of the author, and neither the owners of My Nintendo News, nor Forumotion will be held responsible for the content of any message.

By agreeing to these rules, you warrant that you will not post any messages that are obscene, vulgar, sexually-oriented, hateful, threatening, or otherwise violative of any laws.

The owners of My Nintendo News reserve the right to remove, edit, move or close any thread for any reason. This is the golden rule for moderators.

Owners

These rules were originally that of vBulletin and have been edited accordingly to match My Nintendo News. I respect their property and do not claim this as my own work, however, My Nintendo News has agreed to work under these laws and the ones listed above. Questions are closed for the rules.
