* There will be no posting of pornographic or obscene material on the boards. It will be deleted immediately and you will be banned.

SPAM
* SPAM stands for: Short Pointless Annoying Messages. SPAM does not add anything to the conversation, and just take up space. Before you post, ask yerself these questions: Does my post add to the conversation? Is it long enough to get my whole point across?
* Some examples of SPAM are:
- OMG Johnny is SO HOT THERE!!!!!
- Jack? DEAD!? Noooooooooo!
- Awesome! I want to enter!
- THANK YOU SO MUCH!. You rock!
* A second form of "spamming" is PAM; it's long and pointless.
* Make sure your posts aren't full of PAM by not rambling or go on and on about something you have mentioned already before.
