Video Games Forum Guidelines

[Qieth]

Welcome to the Video Games Forum! On these boards, we gather to discuss the wonders of video games across all platforms and genres.

Gamers come in many variations, so it is important that we are mindful of our behavior. The general forum rules are still in effect, but the following rules also apply to these forums:

Only one topic per game
It can get really messy if the board has 5 different Runescape threads. Use the search tool and post in an existing topic if you wan't to add something, rather than making a new one.

In the event that you missed an existing thread, the new topic may be closed or merged with the other.

No platform vs platform wars
Not everybody has 17 different consoles, and some people simply prefer one thing over another. Please don't use these forums to flame one console because you like another. You are free to share your preference, if you found that you enjoyed Modern Warfare 2 on the PC more than when you tried it on the Playstation, but keep in mind that other people might not share your perspective, and let them have theirs.

No genre vs genre wars
Some gamers like FPS games, others like adventure games or puzzles. If you don't like a genre, refrain from flaming those that do. You are free to express your oppinions and discuss what you dislike about a certain genre or game, but let people have their enjoyment.

Elitism
Trolling is trolling, and we don't like it. Keep in mind that some people do not posess the same hand/eye coordination as you, or have the time to pursue a certain genre to a professional level. Snobby elitism is generally frowned upon, and direct assaults because someone isn't "as good as you" will win you a vacation.

Referral Links are Not Allowed
Referral links are not permitted on MMO-Champion. They never have been. They will gain you a ban. If we're in a particularly bad mood, it will be a permanent ban. This is your warning.

A referral link is a link (usually contest related or similar) where you gain a benefit for someone clicking the link. It usually includes a long identifier in the link, such as http://www.somecontest.com/?id=887161h1hcf999817.
