This was actually inspired by one of my favorite LJ communities of the same name. If you'd like to take a look, click here.
Rules are
1. One sentence per post.
2. Sentence must end in one period (not an exclamation point or a question mark).
Please note: Semi-colons and ellpsese in the middle of sentences ARE legal as long as the post ends with a period. For examples, please see the Newbie's Guide
3. You may post about any topic you like as long as you obey the rules.
4. Rulebreakers will be bitten.
NEW: 5. Don't be an a*****e to the regulars (or anyone in this thread really). The regulars have been around longer than you have and Harmonia LIKES them. Do NOT be suprised if assholery is met with snark and sarcasm. You have been WARNED.
Example:
I have a banana and it smells good.

And now, a note from me--Aravilar.
This is my favorite thread at Gaia. Yes. It is. And as much as I try to be as nice and friendly as possible, it just annoys me when people blatantly disregard the rules for this thread. Harmy-sama's already laid down her five ground rules, so I'd like to give you all some examples of what are good posts and what aren't.
Rule #1: One sentence per post.
This means just that--one sentence. It doesn't mean you cannot have shorter phrases joined together in that sentence, but it does mean that there should be a period at the end.
Good-- My cat is furry.
Bad-- My cat is furry. It has brown fur. And it has green eyes.
Rule #2: Sentence must end in one period (not an exclamation point or a question mark).
As I said before, all sentences need to end in a period.
Good-- This thread is great.
Good-- This thread is great(ep).
Good-- What is this thread(qm).
Bad-- This thread is great! (Or anything other than a period.)
Rule #3: You may post about any topic you like as long as you obey the rules.
That's exactly right. Whatever you want to post is fine--from your lunch to your classes to your pet goldfish. Follow the rules, and have fun. =)
Rule #4: Rulebreakers will be bitten.
Harmy-sama will bite you if you don't follow the rules. Or she'll use her Hex Vision on you--whichever appeals to her most.
Rule #5: Don't be an a*****e to the regulars (or anyone in this thread really).
Really, you should just post politely--treat other posters as you would want to be treated. It's clichéd, but it's the truth.
Some other tips:
-- Use (qm) for question marks and (ep) for exclamation points. You can string sentences together with them.
Example-- Where did my pen go(qm) I knew where it was yesterday(ep) I'll go look for it.
-- Use commas, ellipses, semicolons, and the like to make room for more in your sentences.
Example-- If I were a member of The Domo 88's, I would feel honored--you would too, if you were chosen to patrol the Statements thread; perhaps one day I'll be lucky enough to be a part of the team.
-- If you break the rules once, don't worry! Everyone makes mistakes, and you can't be expected to be perfect. Just don't show Harmy-sama or anyone else that you have no care about the rules--if you don't care about the rules, Harmy-sama will ban you from the thread.
I hope this has helped you somewhat.
