If sites followed this rule instead of "Hurr durr don't hurt them feels!" the internet would be a better place.

I can obey that and since the forum rarely has a##h#les and critics and trolls dont exist. Thus i make my own kingdom rush fan ideas and also i never disturb people and also Kingdom rush doesnt have allot of fans and fans dont jerk others. Maybe i spam but maybe ill stop. Im also new here and im also intrested at fans ideas so im making top 5 favorite fan made Heroes like i did with Top 5 favorite heroes.

I added a few more things to the list.

I added a Capital Offense

- Update: Making a fake account for the sake of trolling or disrupting the Forums.

I corrected a Cardinal Rule

- Update: Name your thread with an appropriate subject, related to the conversation. Also... do not place foul language in thread subjects.

And a few more Guidelines:

- Update: Do not start debating over the Forum rules outside this thread.
- Update: Try to solve personal discrepancies through PM... leave the aggro out of the Threads.
- Update: Do not act as a Moderator. If something annoys you and it's harmless, ignore it. If something it's offensive, report it to the Admins or Moderators... easy peasy.

As always... these rules are not retroactive, meaning that they apply from now on. Threads and posts that were created before posting these rules will not be deleted.

For me, these are quite obvious.

I will update rules whenever I see situations that are not good for the Forums and were not contemplated before. Simple as that.

Weird, I saw it only as the fourth post in the KR forum and thought to bump it.

I assume that there are more stickied posts that get bumped in their own, "stickied" area?

No. This is not a question for the Studio.

This is a question about Forum rules.

Nothing to be worried about.

All opinions are appreciated. Some of the harshest criticism we have received has come from this Forum and from people that are hardcore fans. It's been very useful.

As long as you are respectful to others, you can pretty much say what you want.

The topics that we will not tolerate here are: Hate-promoting ideas, piracy, ostensive obscenity or violence and ostensive advertisement of products or services (you can recommend stuff if it makes sense in a conversation, but you can't keep pushing for people to buy something).

I have a suggestion for something new to include in the rules:

No posting partially-finished threads. Drafts can be saved, and cluttering the forums with threads that can't be fully replied to is spam. (Exceptions could be fanfictions, games, etc. so long as they're still coherent and can be responded to.)

:)

I'v seen at least bazillion topics that are like:

<some ok text>
<reserved post, more to come cuz i need results first>
<second reserved post>

Your definition screws these - because they're unfinished. Big NO then.

Also, one can respond to literally any thread, finished or not, so I don't understand Your statement "can be responded to". There's shiny "and" before that, but unfinished work can also be coherent.

Somewhat agree with Razieltnt, though not particularly for the same reasons. Rules are meant to maintain peace, and keep everyone safe. Partially-finished threads don't harm anyone and don't hinder the peace in pretty much anyway unless it's spammed repeatedly.

I admit, though, that it isn't pleasant to the eyes to read a thread that is both incoherent and unfinished. I think this can be addressed simply by stating in a topic title that a thread isn't finished yet: "Kingdom Rush: Chronicles (Unfinished)," for example. Drafts are an option, of course, but for those who want critique immediately, this can help.

I said that there would be exceptions. Did nobody read the entire post?
