Bloodrun Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 This thread will contain, but not be limited to, Rules, Ideas, and more Rules. Link to the new enforcement:http://forum.yugiohcardmaker.net/thread-78048.html Help me, Help you:Members, in order to make the Custom Cards section run as smoothly as possible, we need to make sure that things that shouldn't be here are reported. Such as, swearing, porn, spam, etc. Myself and the other Custom Cards mods, would appreciate it, if you would help us, by using the report button whenever you see someone not following the rules. We would also like it, if you did not post in said threads, that are not following the rules, as it just invites more problems. We want to make sure that every member enjoys his or her stay here, and to do that we need to make sure that things are taken care of, and no one is getting attacked. So, help us, help you, and your stay here will be fantastic. I garuntee it!We want to make sure that every member enjoys his or her stay here, and to do that we need to make sure that things are taken care of, and no one is getting attacked. RULES: 1 - I will be officially enforcing the Image Credit Rule. At first, the rule will be set to the standards that you must at least credit the artist, somewhere in your thread and or card. By Crediting I mean, providing the name of the artist.Note: If this rule isn't followed by the majority of the members, I will be forced to making the rule set to: You must provide the name of the artist, and or the link to where you found the picture. If even that is not followed, your thread will be locked, never to be un-locked again.Also, I know that there are some members who get their pictures from places like Google, and Photobucket, if so, just provide the link. 2 - Spamming/Flaming/Argueing/Swearing (and anything else that might fit into that category) will not be accepted in these forums. Just like in any other forums. A thread that has an excessive amount of spamming/flaming/argueing and or swearing will be locked. We are here to post cards, and improve on our card making skills, this isn't for debating. 3 - Card Rating, the rating of a card, is a good way to show what members think of another members card(s). But, an explanation with it, is always a good thing. Wich is why you must now include more then just "7/10 Good Job!" in your posts. Now I'm not going to give you a quideline to follow, but, a simple explanation will suffice. 4 - Thread Titles I've been noticing how the tittles around here have an excessive amount of un-needed characters. Like "Come and post now!!!!!!!" or "If you don't look here, you will die!".That is not needed in any form or fashion. Be to the point, and you'll be fine. I will simply edit the tittles if I see anything like that, if the same member changes the tittle, I will lock the thread, and it will remained locked, until said member can learn and or tell me what I locked his/her thread. This also includes names tags, such as: "Bloodrun Productions" or "A Bloodrun Single". Note: Points and Reps, (bribing) is not allowed. Do not bribe people to post in your thread. 5 - Repeated Offenses now obviously a forum full of locked threads, is really ugly. Which, is why this rule is in place. If a member commits the same act twice, after a warning the first time, I will insue a +2 Warning Increase, on him or her. If the same act, is repeated a third time, another +2 will be issued. Any more repeats of the same act after the third, that member will be banned from CC Section for 1 day. And, if said member again repeats the same act, consequences will be left to that of the entire moderation team. 6 - Posting Effects if the effect of a created card is unable to be read at first glance. Then that effect must be Copied & Pasted into a spoiler. This is just simple courtesy for those members who are kind enough to rate your cards. 7 - Threads that should be reported, ok the threads that you know should be reported, whether it contain, spam, porn, etc.. DO NOT POST IN THEM. Report them, but DO NOT! post in them. It only invites more spam, and chaos. 8 - Cards not allowed in Realistic Section Cards that have other Types, besides the previously used Types in the Yugioh Card Game should not be posted in this forum, but in Other Cards. The same goes for DIVINE Monsters. 9 - IMG Codes attachments will not be allowed. It is annoying for those who rate your cards, and it is time consuming for more then 5 cards. You may get the IMG code of your cards, by simply clicking on the picture of the card, while you are using the Card Maker, and copying and pasting the code that will appear beneeth your card. You may also use websites such as:www.tinypic.comwww.photobucket.com 10 - Bumping Threads that have not been posted in, for more then 5 days cannot be bumped(this includes the posts made by you that are bumps), at all. Threads can only be bumped once, in 24, and can only be bumped a total of 3 times. 11 - Reported Threads As of today, September 4th, 2008. Any Topics that are breaking the rules, and need to be reported, must not be posted in.Now, some exclusions apply here, such as: 1) Threads that have cards, but no artist credit- You may still post in them, but only about the card, then just simply report the thread for not having a credit. Don't mention anything, about the rules they have broken. Becuase usually members tend to be harsh. So, again, don't mention anything about the rules they have broken. 2) Threads that do not contain any cards. Do not post in them, only Report. The "punishment" for not following this rule, will be a +2 increase in your warning.I have set this rule, becuase posting in threads that are breaking the rules, just invites spam, and by the time one member has posted about the creator of the thread breaking the rule, 7 others will have to.So please, just follow this rule, and everything will go as planned. 12 - Added Rule from J-Max regarding Attachments I have had ENOUGH of seeing Attachments in Threads, even f you are a New Member you should at least read the Rules! So from now on, any Thread with Attachments will receive a +2 from me. Do it again and I will ban you for 1 Days. Desperate times call for Desperate Measures, enjoy your Card Making YCM. This thread will be updated continuously, as I remember the things I have forgotten. I appologize for any inconveniance. Thank you for taking the time to read the rules. Your Moderators of this forum, are working hard to make this place run as smoothly as possible.Also, don't be shy, tell me anything I missed, or any suggestions..

OMGAKITTY Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Looking good!Personally, I'd bold out the "name of artist" and "provide a link" part of the art credit rule, because it seems a lot of members scan this and don't pick up on that part... (hah..I'm a Credit Nazi XD ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the newbies seem to post a new thread every couple of minutes...not only is it annoying, but it buries other people's (like mine, lol) stuff.Should be a time limit to how many threads you can post in a row?

Killey Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 I'm kind of annoyed with how some people will make seperate threads for each card they make. It's one thing if you make seperate threads for seperate sets but making a thread everytime you create a single card is annoying. It relates back to people making multiple threads every so often but in general I'm just annoyed at how often we see a 1 card thread, which then bumps off older threads that contains sets. A lot of the time you have to dig back several pages to see submissions that were made earlier in the day or maybe a day or two ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I understand why a lot of people make singles inside threads...sometimes you just don't want to though the hassle of making multiples at one time, and you often get more in depth reviews if you only have 1 card the viewer has to look at...well that's my 2 cents./rant.
