OLD Infraction System/Forum Rules (No longer active)

[GrnMarvl14]

Well, I wasn't saying that it was an infraction, just that it was a rule.

Most rules are tied to infractions. This could be an exception, though. I honestly don't know how the rule's set up and I won't attempt to say how, if at all, it's enforced.

I fixed the month confusion issue.

Between Level II infractions and just general bad behavior, it isn't impossible. Often, a user will make a string of posts that are infraction-worthy and they will accumulate to a permaban.

I love how infractions here expire, because you won't be punished for something you did wrong over 6 months ago, as most expire long before then. People who makes strings of infraction worthy posts however are kinda asking for them. People who have an infraction once every 2 months are regular things. People mess up, rules slip them by. But as long as they expire, no one is at real fault, because they will learn their lesson quite easily from bans if they get that far.

I just got a "warning" for speculating on what Isshu was based on and was told the rule against this was stickied on the forum. I did not see anything about this before I posted(or I wouldn't have said anything) and cannot find anything on it now. Where can I find this "rule"?

-Edit- Nevermind I found it....

A good rule of thumb for any new members is to read and familiarize yourselves with the various sticky threads and announcements that are in each forum. They do mostly contain useful information, after all.

Is it considered double posting if I post in a thread such as Trainer's Travelog and I wish to do daily updates, but there's only one post between my post and my previous post?

If there aren't any other posts between your two posts, then it's double posting. If there is at least one, then it's OK.

In the "LOOK BEFORE YOU POST" (http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/showthread.php?t=61048) thread in the "Current Event: Black & White" forum, dupe threads are not allowed to be made, yet Thread Necromancy is not allowed. Therefore, these two somehow contradict each other by disallowing older topics to be made or remade. So which rule is the priority, no necromancy, or no repeating?

[evkl]

Repeating and necromancy have a different scope. Repeating is basically what's on the front page; Necro is > 1 month old.

[$aturn¥oshi]

If you have something substantial to add to the thread, then it's not really necro.

[Zekurom]

So would me posting a new ship in the five-month-old user x character shipping thread (in Fun & Games) count as necro? Because I'm scared about that.
