Werewolf Forum - Charter and rules UPDATED 22/7/21

sullivlo

Please obey rules from the main Forum Games charter as applicable.

Namely:

There should be no spam, trolling or any general muppetry. (Any of this will result in posts being edited/deleted).

Try to be friendly & courteous to each other. If things get out of hand, offenders will be banned. (Any Abuse or Racism will not be tolerated).

Commercial advertising is not permitted. (If you wish to place ads on the site you can find out here: http://www.boards.ie/advertise/).

Before starting a new thread, please check see if there is already a similar thread existing. (Duplicate threads may be removed).

Any "off topic" posts may be edited, closed or deleted without warning.

Any repeat offenders of these rules, will result in them being banned and having their access to Forum Games revoked.

Not reading the charter will make us come down harder on you if you break the rules.

Please obey the rules of the individual game you are playing.

All the usual Boards.ie rules also apply.


Forum Specific Rules

Forum mod -v- game mod
Each game will have it's own moderator that will moderate the game (eg assigning roles, counting votes, delivering the news of lynches etc). They will be identified in the OP of the game.

They are who to contact in the event of an issue with the game, such as rule clarifications.

The forum moderators role is to perform administrative tasks within the forum - edit/lock thread titles as needed and just generally keep things civil. Forum moderators can also issue warnings, infractions and bans for behaviour that goes against the charter and against the spirit of the game.

Forum moderators can also check previous versions of edited posts, which may result in disciplinary action being taken if deemed appropriate by the game moderators.

Game rules
The OP of each game will outline the general rules of the game being played, however the following rules apply to all games:
1) There is to be absolutely no editing of posts. There will be a zero tolerance approach, the timing of action for which will be at mod discretion.
2) Metagaming is frowned upon, contact game mods for clarification on whether something is considered meta. Going out of your way to use non-game data is a bad idea, and can lead to game breaking. Do not do this.
3) Things can get heated - you may be called a liar or untrustworthy, deceitful etc etc and that is part of the game. If at any stage you feel a personal attack outside of the remit of the game has occurred, ask the person to stop, report the post for the attention of the forum moderators who will respond as appropriate.
4) If you are not signed up to a game, DO NOT POST IN THE GAME THREAD. Sign up for the next game if you are interested.
5) Do not discuss ongoing/live games elsewhere. This is to avoid the game potentially being spoiled for those playing.

Breaching of any of these rules may result in a severe sanction from the forum mods. As the forum is now publicly available to post in, we may ban people outright to ensure they do not breach rule 4 and 5 in particular.

If there are any questions, feel free to PM one of the moderators.
