English Only
As with all other aspects of the game, this site is English only. Please limit other languages to well known (or translated) and short quotes or phrazes and use only when appropriate in the situation.

Manners
Please treat each other with respect and remain polite. Do not forget that there are people of different ages therefore, please stay patient if questions arise that you may consider "stupid" or "childish".
Personal insults are not allowed anywhere in this site or in any ‘other’ private format.

Users are not allowed to impersonate moderators. Trying to act as one is forbidden and will lead to a warning. Please do not feed the trolls and do not post in threads that are likely to be deleted. Posts like "In before lock" are forbidden.

Players are also forbidden to provoke the moderators against them in a deliberate way. Posts made for the purpose of creating a personal conflict between users and staff will be deleted and their author will be punished severely.

Players who deliberately act against the building of a community will be denied access to these forums.

Posts
Please post answers that refer to the topic. If you cannot post a sensible answer it is better to avoid saying anything. This is particularly true for one-word-posts like "lol" or "rofl".
To avoid repetition of arguments especially in long discussions you should always read the whole topic before posting.

Posting Pictures
It is allowed to post pictures without any comment as long as they obviously belong to the topic of the thread. Pictures are restricted to a maximum size of 640x480 pixels. If you want to post something larger than that, please provide only the link for the picture and not the actual picture in the post.

Avatars
Avatars may not exceed 80x80 Pixels to ensure th reader is able to see that image.

Grammar/spelling flames
It is not allowed to rebuke another user concerning his grammar/spelling. If the grammar/spelling of a user is that bad, that the content gets lost, you can use the "report post" feature to report the post. Then an admin or mod will deal with it.

Avoid repeating topics
Before you post a new topic please make sure that there has not already been a similar topic.

Use of private messages
Conversations, discussions and arguments between two people should be done in private. Please use the private message system in this forum or other applications (e.g. IRC, skype, ...)

Complaints about other players
To report the breaching of rules by another player please use the support system. Do not open complaint topics in the forum.

Post in the right topic

Please take a moment before posting a new topic and make sure you are posting in the correct page so the administrators or mods don't have to move it later.

Proper naming of topics/pages
Please choose appropriate titles when creating a page/topic. Please avoid incomplete or attention seeking names as they are deemed unfavourable. Generalistic titles such as "question", "help", "lol" should also be avoided.

Please reread the text before posting it to avoid mistakes. Your text might be read by hundreds of players so make sure it is understandable.

Be economical with quotations. Quote only the relevant parts so that posts won't get unnecessarily long.

Extreme content
Anything deemed politically extreme, pornographic, illegal, or unsavory in any way is prohibited in this game whether posted or referenced. Racist or ethnic bashing comments are forbidden even if used in gest. Comments that play down the use of illegal drugs are also forbidden.

Copyright
Do not use copyrighted materials of any kind in your posts/pages.

Reporting posts
All members have the right to report posts made by members of the forum. The function should be used only to report posts that break the rules and must be accompanied by a reason for the report. After the report has been sent it will be checked by a moderator. Abuse of the report system is prohibited and violators will be warned or in extreme cases banned.



The moderators (mods) have the right to edit or delete pages and close topics. Please follow their instructions. Discussions about their behaviour are to be held over the support system.
Every complaint or criticism regarding moderation should be voiced using the support system. If you think your request affects a large part of the community and has to be discussed in public, you can post it in the "Public Problems" page in a non-provoking and well-phrased way.
Arguing against the The Dragon Land team that violates these rules will be punished and Pages/topics that seek to create or worsen existing problems will be deleted.

If you want to become a Mod you must have deticated 30 contributions to this site. And then apply for one.

If you want to be an Admin you must have done 100 contributions then you need to apply.


If you notice that your post or topic was deleted, it has been removed for a good reason. Please do not rewrite it.



We reserve the right to ban players even if they haven't violated the stated forum rules.
