THREAD HIJACKING VS. SLIDING TOPIC
There's hijacking and then there's a sliding topic. A sliding topic looks like this...
Does anyone know where I can find good clothes cc?
yeah at tsr
oh I heard tsr was bad
some people have problems but I never have
oh do they also have hairstyles there?
yeah but my favorite thing from there is furniture
On this forum it's ok if the topic drifts within a respectable amount. The OP was asking specifically about clothing cc, but in trying to help, the mention of a cc site struck up it's own conversation. Nothing wrong with that, it's all part of simmers sharing and conversing.
Now here's an example of THREAD HIJACKING and this is not OK
Does anyone know where I can get good clothes cc?
no, but READ MY BLOG at www.Iamrude.net
lol I hope you can all see the difference
============================
DISAGREEING VS. ARGUING
friendly debates are welcome here. "I hate generations because..." "I love generations because..." that's a friendly and welcomed debate
I think we can all figure out what's not ok. "You are stupid if you like generations"
We don't have to agree, in fact differences are welcome, acting like a bafoon is not.
============================
TROLLING VS. ACTING LIKE A HUMAN BEING
don't even think about trolling here, this site IS actually moderated and you will be perma banned. constructive criticism is fine, but things like "your sim stinks" is childish and will not be tolerated.
============================
SPAMMING VS. NOT SURE WHERE TO PUT THIS
HEY, it's ok to put something in more than one topic, if it makes sense. Maybe you just made some cc and you want to make a thread for it in "Featured CC" and "Share Your Creations", well that's ok. Making repeated threads for the same thing or making the same thread in every forum is spamming and against the rules.
============================
APPROPRIATE PICS VS. INAPPROPRIATE PICS
Unlike the official forums you ARE allowed to post pics of yourself here IF you want to since there is an age requirement for this site.
You are not allowed to post pics of nudity, brutality, racism or any other offensive material. That will result in a perma-ban!!
============================
OFF TOPIC VS. AWFUL TOPIC
You are allowed to have conversations here that are not about sims.
You are NOT allowed to have conversations about things such as; animal cruelty, racism, things of a sexual nature, or any other offensive topics.
============================
REPORT VS. REVENGE
If a post breaks the rules, report it. If you abuse the report button by using for no good reason, then you are breaking the rules.
