1) Respect others.
Respect the people who are regulars that make solid posts, and quality posts.
2) Act mature and responsibly.
Yes, we don't like people who act immaturely.
3) Do not spam, flame or troll on AG.
Those are the basic rules. AG is really strict about them. They DO NOT tolerate it. Don't spam, flame or troll. It will result to a ban, or warning. If you keep spamming, trolling or flaming it will eventually result to a perma ban.
4) Your grammar is important.
It's good to have good grammar. So your post would be more understandable rather than...uh yeah.
5) Present yourself as a person worth respecting.
Make good quality posts.
6) Have fun.
Yes, always have fun.
7) Do not hate on other people.
Hate is quite a strong word. Disliking will be okay. But keep the disliking to yourself. NEVER make a thread about a user you dislike.
8) Do contribute to the forums in a positive manner.
NEVER go off-topic. It is considered as spam.
9) Make a name for yourself.
You already have your username?
10) You can participate in WEPR debating if you're good at that.
The WEPR is pretty rough. You have to be quite mature enough to enter. If you are able to handle rough arguments without swearing the WEPR can be the section for you.
11) Most of the well-respected regulars here share stuff and hang around the Art, Music and Writing forum. You can do that too.
You can show are art skills. Participate in the poetry contests. And make your own story. But share YOUR stuff not others people's work. Plagiarism is not tolerated there.
Mods are usually around there too. So if you spam or troll you'll easily be caught.
12) Support and Suggestions is a good place to help out.
It's nice to help out other users. But remember this, if other user has posted the answer before already. Don't repeat it. Please?
13) If you want to follow me, feel free to make yourself at home in the Tavern, the equivalent of an Off-Topic section.
It can be an off-topic section, but the rules still apply. Don't talk about specific users or inappropriate stuff. You can be mature enough. But still...it isn't allowed obviously.
14) Do not make yourself look like an AP *****. People despise e-peen braggarts here.
...
15) Make quality posts. Try your best.
As mentioned, make quality posts, and you'll be respected! No one likes a spammer. Just pointing that out...Ha.
16) Follow all the forum rules, site rules and regulations.
DO NOT break one rule. AG is quite strict. So be careful of what you do. But if you follow the rules you will be fine.
