All hail the Supreme Comrade Cossack!
A Flash quiz. You are asked questions based on the rules and you have to get above a certain percentage to be allowed to view the site.
All hail the Supreme Comrade Cossack!
The only problem is that some of the rules are so ambiguous that it is a matter of oppinion and judgement about whether something breaks the rules or not, thus it would be hard to test someone on it. For example, it someone bumps up an old thread to state their own oppinion as the only other option would be to create an identical thread; or for someone to double post to state their oppinions in a thread that not many people seem to reply to, both posts having a day or more between them. Both are technically legal, but you\'d be surprised how many members then go on to criticise them and request a thread lock.
It\'s not really the rules being bent, rather the rules contradicting eachother.
This has to be said:
Some places on this site such as :rules,main site and hacking aren\'t used much. A lot of the topics on the first page haven\'t been used in almost two years. Now when people bmp these topics on accident they get killed by some n00b hunter. I have a policy, anything on the first page post on it. Anything on the second page check the dates and don\'t use the third page. I am asking that you do not go to hard on people that bump these things!
this is a good example of what to bump and when it is apropriate. http://www.interordi.com/mboard/viewthread.php?tid=2152

that is a great link but if only more people look back here
BannedI think having a \"rule\" final exam and having more n00b hunters might help. Or maybe.... some kind of fancy tutorial?
Bye-bye, Inti.... IF Doc bans me like I told him to.
Rioni... thanks for the Final-Zero music..
I prefer noob hunters.
Or someone (preferably me :P) who goes around, finds noob who break rules, and refers them to the Doc or Sir Breaker. They then PM them and set them straight. Although if you pick me, you\'d have to have two people doing it because of my binge vacation tendancy.
98% of teens have made a "98% of teens" Signature. Copy and paste this into your signature if you're the 2% that finds it stupid.
Perhaps if once a n00b starts spamming then doc assigns someone to them, they feel special when they are Pmed. Trust me that\'s how I felt. I think this would be better than instant banning. Poor Alpha the Beast, I mean the guy was ten!
Magiman, that won\'t work. Who has made you a dictator here? :o
In all honesty, I think \'n00b hunters\' are perhaps good as a last resort, but only as that. Nothing more. I think it might even be better that we have someone SPAM a bit now and then, to remind all others what should not be done. Though that is a very, very lame excuse for constant SPAM and breaking other rules.
All hail the Supreme Comrade Cossack!
Look the n00b hunters Idea sounded okay at first but it\'s useless here and last I checked you aren\'t an admin.
Hey beautiful people, you're better off trying to e-mail me than message me on here.
... You all don\'t realize how much you irritate the mods with your
\"This topic should be locked\"
\"I request whoever to be banned\"
and the like. Let the mods do their jobs. It\'s fine to point out to people the rules, but you must realize that the banning and locking decisions should all be left to the mods and Doc himself.
If you see a questionable topic, you can report it. Just don\'t post \"I\'m going to report this _locked_\" because then you\'re spamming and breaking rules yourself.
1. Say the word PIG before each word.

I have a really quick question that im confused on... can anyone define bumping for me... i\'ve read it in several topics and im a lil confused on the whole thing seeing as how it seems alot of things are defined as bumping. i didn\'t see it in this topic\'s rules and i didn\'t know where else to find it...

Post. And that\'s not part of the rules.
Bumping should be made a rule, and details about when it\'s appropriate.
I don\'t think bumping should be made a rule. It\'s pretty much usually \"appropiate.\" If they\'re \"SPAM\"ming, they\'re breaking other rules too; the \"SPAM\"ming rule. And therefore, they don\'t need to be told they are breaking a \"bumping\" rule. And don\'t say should. You have a SUGGESTION. There is no SHOULD that\'s up to Dr. Coassack.
I think (notice the use of think, then should, which makes it okay) that there should be a rule about double-posting, saying something along the lines of \"No double-posting, except in cases where it is obviously appropiate. If you cannot determine easily what is appropiate, which would be with very few exceptions, then do not double-post at all. If anyone has ever told you not to double-post, you probably should not do so.\" I didn\'t word that properly, but if they chose to use this rule they (well, he) could do it right.
No, not Sage\'s nightstick and people yelling at people, well, if they\'re posting anyway why not \'long as it doesn\'t get too flamish. But what I am talking about is a simple \"This topic has been reported,\" so that others don\'t report it and flood Doc/Break/Necro\'s inbox. The sole purpose of the post is to avoid others from reporting it again.
I read almost everything. No spamming swearing bathroom words uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..... No multiple posts about the same exact thing right?

I am pretty sure that they go in the Fan Work section. I think you make a topic for your own?
And welcome to the board.
