These rules are fairly simple, and pretty common sense worthy, and if ya was raised with manners you don't even have to worry about it, but it's typed here so noone can say "WELL YOU DIDN'T MENTION THAT EARLIER!"
1. Respect the people in the thread, the art, and the thread itself.
If you need an explanation of this, you're a simpleton, but to type it down so you would be aware, this rule means what it means. Do not spam in the thread (Example: "Your art looks gay". Oh yes, this is considered spam. Along with "Your artz so amazinzinzinzing!".) No bashing of other's styles of art (Example again: "Your art sucks" ). Also, don't edit other's pictures, please.
2. I can't stress this enough, RESPECT THE THREAD
We all can agree that if people goof off TOO much, it gets annoying. If you want to participate, at least follow the themes that shall be explained below. And no, this don't mean you slap something you find humourous, like a deformed baby in a theme that could be..."Children" or something. Either actually try your best, or gtfo. This is supposed to help get an art block untangle, or just see if you can. Humor is allowed, don't get me wrong, but not everyone thinks that tentacles, deformation, or random gushes of blood attached to something is very humorous.
3. Not all themes mean no interaction with other art.
I believe all that'll come here have been/seen the Avatar Battle Royal. Originally this thread is just fun posting, like a drawn RP, like the Avatar Role Playing Thread, but much more loosely. Comics of people interacting with others, and the other reply to that is very welcomed. But no random raping with any medium EVER. If the theme is "Soccor" or something like that, it's alright to make a soccor match between participants in the thread, but no random GodModding, rape, blood that wasn't called for (now if you kicked the ball at their face, yes, bloody nose is eminent), or just something else really crude.
4. I'm not going to say keep it PG-13 for the cases that there WILL be bloodshed in art and the violence that shall follow, but I can say this: No. Uncalled-for. Nudity.
Censor bars are allowed though. But for the sake of the thread, and so I won't be reported for the thread, no. I highly doubt there'll be a "Sexy" theme, but there's other ways of being sexy without being nude. Underwear is alright. C:
5. That's about it. But I should tell you that you only get one warning.
Any person violating the rules will get a warning per theme. And you can't use the excuse "Well I didn't know", because common sense should tell you that if you are not certain, you can always ask me before hand. If I KNOW you're the type of person that just purposefully break rules and you break it, and also if it inclused a mocking message, you are immediately banned. I am an easy person to get along with. Don't make me ban you.
6. I have the authority to change the rules.
No, that don't mean that if you post something I happen to not like, I'll ban you because "I can change the rules". No, I am a fair person. If it's something I haven't thought of that I believe violates any of the ToS of Gaia, or the rules, you pass by, but if I had changed the rules again (which I WILL mention in a post), any other person or the same that repeats this WILL be banned.
(Example: I didn't say there's no nude models and someone posts a nude model. If it don't fit the theme, I'll be mad, yes, but I can't ban you. So I'll post a new rule about not putting up nude models, and any person that posts a nude model will be warned/banned.) I will also mention WHO caused the change of the rules.
7. Oh and you should know...
Since this person have helped me think of this thread, depending on what account they use, 2IC_Astrum/Mecoiy/Psychotic Kimblee is also able to change rules if I am not present. They shall be the ONLY one that can take my job if I am not here, so which means any changes someone might want to FORCE without telling me nor them, the person doing this shall be immediately banned. No questions asked.
8. You think there's too many rules?
Suck it up. Seriously. Don't even think of joining if you think there's too many rules to follow, these are pretty common sense worthy.
