Aionsource Rules

[Knite]

Main regulations (That all Official Fansites must enforce):

1. No flaming. No hate material, including without limitation, defamatory, abusive, racially or ethnically offensive imagery, content or language.

2. No disgusting stuff. No pornography or obscene or indecent material.

3. No politics. No overt propaganda. This site does not tolerate or endorse obvious political agendas, or ones that have blatant messaging of slogans and attacks on religions, ethnic groups, or personalities, or that would otherwise tarnish AionSource.com's and NCsoft's reputation.

Also, AionSource.com is designed for Aion fans age 13 and older. Please consider this before posting anything potentially upsetting to Aion's younger audience.

In exchange, AionSource.com and its staffers will never:

• ask for a player's personal password or username.
• ask for a player's credit card information.
• pretend we are paid employees of the game, or ask to meet players in person.
• make any material available for download or distribution that we know contains any computer virus of any kind.

AionSource.com-specific regulations:

1. Do not promote the use or location of private servers, hacking tools/services, illegal downloading, botting, or any other related topic.

This one shouldn't need much explaining. You're only as good as what YOU bring to the game. Not an outside service, hack, bot, or other type of unfair advantage.

2. If you are having issues, talk to the staff.

Polite complaints/rants would gladly be accepted by our staff members. However, please note that the first place one should look if one is giving feedback on the website is the feedback forum, located .

3. No blatant advertising.

It's perfectly fine to reference an article on another site or mention a cool place you found in passing, but do not publicly or blatantly advertise on AionSource.com. This includes continuously mentioning said advertisement in threads, abusing the private messaging system with mass mailings, and any other form.

4. Multiple Accounts

Users who create multiple accounts to bypass bans or for other unproductive methods may find themselves subject to a temporary or permanent IP ban. Accounts created to bypass another account's ban will also be banned.

5. Overall

Remember we're all here for the same reason: to discuss all that there is to discuss about Aion in a comfortable and familiar community.

AionSource.com Disciplinary Actions:

AionSource.com uses an Infraction system for users who do not post within the terms of the rules. Infractions will not expire for 60 days after being given.

Disciplinary actions are as follows:

First Infraction: Warning Issued.

Second Infraction: 1-Day Ban.

Third Infraction: 1-Day Ban.

Fourth Infraction: 1-Week Ban.

We never want to resort to banning people, but in some cases it is necessary for the good of the community. If you feel an infraction you have received is unfair or unwarranted, please PM the administrator to discuss the matter.

I cleared all infractions from the database yesterday to give everyone a clean slate with this new system, enjoy and perhaps try to behave

The static forum-wide announcement can be found here.

Sounds fair.


Can we quote stupid people and type "you're stupid"?

I got the wrong impression here. I thought the post was gonna be about AionSource being awesome. I guess if the title was "AionSource Rules!" then it would have been.

[InuSeito]

Haha, AionSource staff is so cute~
So is Curse staff but they don't have cookies.

[Darkdragyn]

Thank You Very Much

[Untamed]

The first rule of aionsource should be don't talk about aionsource.

[Ryuzaki]

Fair enough.
I agree with all the rules.

[Chalky]

Dun dun dunnnnn

Can someone define flaming for me now?

As I understand it, "flaming" is insulting an individual, however, people will sometimes start to QQ about flaming if you say something like "that idea sucks because XYZ".

Essentially, IMO the difference between a flame and a legitimate criticism is the difference between "That's a dumb idea" and "You're dumb".

Clarification of this from on high, if you would be so kind.

Sweet I like the new rules and policies of AionSource. I hope it will keep the flamers/trolls off AionSource.

[Brad]

Is 'noob', 'clicker' and 'terribad' flame?

Stating your opinion on something is fine, it's a discussion forum, but you don't have to tear down someone else's idea to prove why yours is better.
