What not to do...

Don't curse excessively
--> Fuck, Shit, Damn, Bitch, Ass, Asshole, and any other forms of these words are included.

Don't Spam up the forums...
--> stay on topic!! don't post random crap that just makes the forum all messy.

Respect people's authority
--> if someone is in a group and you aren't please don't complain that you should be in.

Don't Beg
--> It's very very annoying.

Don't cheat (mainly in battles)
--> don't purposely use hacked and uber pokemon when they are banned for a battle. Also don't say a hacked pokemon is legit...

DO NOT ADVERTISE.
---> Rude, and untolerable. It splits the community.

ALSO, and probably the most important rule, NO Racist, Sexist, or anything related comments to that will be used. If you break this rule i will ban you and will only be able unban you after a few weeks.

Now that these are clearly posted, any breaking will result in a referral to me. if it continues, you will be banned...

Uber battles aren't considered n00bish really, but the standard battling rules are for OverUsed Tiers. If you want to battle with ubers, you must state that you want to use ubers. In other words, to impress this information into noob heads, Standard battles are not uber battles where people have to say "no ubers". Any type of battle deviating from the standard Lv. 100 Single No hacking No ubers has to have the rules state prior to the battle, but any regular battle follows the standard rules.

can i use insulting words in my language?

I would also caution anyone against making derogatory remarks about situations and people you know nothing about. I assure you that it says absolutely nothing positive about your personality, your morals, or your intellectual capacity (rather, the lack thereof). Some of the individuals here, at this forum, may be the most intelligent, sophisticated, and benevolent people you may ever have the chance to meet. I find the ignorance and hypocrisy running rampant on the internet as a whole to be utterly distressing and a demonstration of the decline of society.

No, it does not matter if someone thinks you have ‘hacked’ pokemon. Prove they are legit, and move on. There is absolutely NO NEED to insult, curse, and wage a cyber war. I would like to remind you that pokemon is just a game, so please don’t get angry when there is no need to be. If you are, release the anger in a more productive way.

about the cussing its okay if you say it lie every once in awhile right? like F*** I lost but not AT pple? not that I cannot control myself however every 1ce in a while it MAY slip by...

I see tons of people cuss in the chatbox.

Alberto, DO NOT advertise other forums. That is ONE thing we do not tolerate here. I'm removing your link, and this is your first warning. Do not bother PMing people with the link either, because the moderators will be told.

You guys can read pms?

No, I can't. But usually a few members will let me know if anything fishy is happening, Erik.
