| last site update before sleep for amer! |
| Okay, in my last little site update for the night, I added the function to ban people from posting comments on the site for any amount of time.
I really, really hate for it to have come to this, but some people are just making complete and total nuisances of themselves in the comments section and deserve to be silenced.
Here are the rules, just follow them please, it would be nice to have a productive comments section:
I don't mind if you use offensive language in your posts for non hurtful purposes. Like, if you say "holy &#$@, Antharas is so strong", that's fine. But if you direct it at people, like "you're such a $&*@#$", that is bad. You will be banned.
My position on "first post": This is an old Internet tradition. The problem is that some people totally miss the point. By saying first post, it's short for "here is the first post." Lots of people are saying first post, and not posting. I mean a message that says "first post"... where's the post? You're actually supposed to say first post, and then ACTUALLY SAY SOMETHING. This applies to messages like "moo" or "sup" or "potato". We're supposed to discuss things here, not practice scrolling down past all the garbage. So, first post is cool with me, as long as you actually post. Nonsense messages will get deleted. If the admin who deletes it is in a bad mood, ban too.
We're not NC. No one pays us. I pay out of my own pocket. I'm happy to. We run it because it's fun. Ruin our fun = ban.
All I want is for the comments section to have real discussion. Sometimes, there are real discussions. Just no more garbage, please. I hope that I never actually have to use ban.
Thank you everyone for helping me out here.
update: If you can't post, or if you see a banned message, and you feel you have been wrongfully banned, let me know. We don't have a fancy logging system like NCSoft, but we're also free. :) |

| Meaningless posts will be deleted. You don't have to post
on *every* article. ^^ |
|
Rules:
- Do not use sexually explicit, hateful, or racially offensive language.
- Do not post several comments in a row or any other kind of spam.
- Stick to the topic. If you want to start a new topic go to the official forums.
- Please post in English.
- Do not use Lineage Compendium as a place to sell or buy Lineage items or accounts for real money.
- Do not impersonate any NCSoft or Lineage Compendium employee.
- Please take up any banning issues in email with the moderator, BigPope, not in the comments or forums.
Violating any rule will usually get your post deleted. Repeat offenders will find their posting privileges
revoked. Violating rule #1 may also get you banned from the whole site. Thanks!
