Welcome to Book Addicts Anonymous (BAA)



Rules and Regulations:

x There is no spamming, no cybering, and no Godmoding in this guild (these are basic rules that should be followed anyway).

o Light swearing is permitted. Actually, any swearing really, as long as it is not anti-person, demeaning, or flaming. If you do not heed the first warning you will be banned for your insolence.

x MODs are allowed to make you cry, unless disapproved by higher authority.

o Make sure to create the right threads in the appropriate forums.

x If you do not understand something, please post your question in the Q & A Sticky, in the main forum.

o This is a guild meant for discussion, so please be kind towards others opinions, even if you do not agree.

Sub-Forum Rules



MOST IMPORTANT RULE: IF THERE ARE SPOILERS, LABEL IT AS SUCH IN THE THREAD TITLE!


Main Forum!

x This is like a Chatterbox forum. You may post up whatever you like as long as it does not compromise the rules.

o Themed bumping threads are permitted, but only if the theme is literacy/art-related.

x Keep in mind this is my main territory. I will be patrolling a lot around here. I don't wanna see anything inappropriate!

o All major announcements will be posted here. Please remain updated!

x Anything that can be put somewhere else, WILL be moved. There is a "three-base" warning system. We do not want continual "mistakes" or acts of laziness.

o This is not quite like the regular Gaian Chatterbox. I do not want to see "guys/girls in cages" threads or "let's hunt the opposite sex/same sex" threads.

x We are open-minded no matter who you are, so don't think I'll ban you right away if it is a matter of debate.

o The forums, including this one are themed by the dewey decimal system. I will likely add more subforums later to be thorough.




Educational [000-900] (School-Related, Textbooks, Articles, History, Etc.)

x Pretty much any subject can go here since it covers everything, however, by everything Imean everything knowledge-based. Pretty educational. If it is a personal thread, move it to the appropriate subforum. If it is about your favourite romance novel, move it to fiction.

o Follow the basic rules, while being literate, please. Most debate and discussion topics go here.

x Movies cannot go under this topic.

o Try to use understandable and easy-to-read font, please.




Self-Help & Psychology [150] (Are you stressed? Need help or advice?)


x Do not make fun of anyone, especially if they are in distress.

o Please be sensitive , as well as sensible here.

x Any good self-help books?

o Just want to post something about helping oneself or a good piece of everyday advice? Go ahead.



The Workshop [700-800] (Visual Art, Writing, Music, Talents)

x Every thread must contain your own original work, or else you must "cite" or refer to the actual artist if simply displaying their original work.

o If you are trying to sell your talents, by which I mean, stories, art, etc. you are permitted. However, you must indicate that it is a shop in the title of your thread.



Fiction Lovers [813]

x All types of fiction include: adult, teen, children's, romance, mystery, literotica, banned, etc.

o If you are discussing a book meant for older readers, please label with appropriate age in the title of the thread, such as [18+] or [16+].

x Again, movies are not permitted to be posted here, even if based on a novel.




Autobiography [900] (Personal Threads)

x You may post about yourself.

o This is not a self-help section. Please post personal questions and issues in the appropriate forum.

x Your quest threads may be posted here as well.

o No spamming for shops.




Movies/Theatre!

x You can post about any movie you have seen.

o No porn movies, please.

x Please label your thread as such [Spoilers], if you will be discussing it to such an extent.

o Also, it is also best if you put the rating of the movie somewhere in the first post.




The West Wing (This is Forbidden!)

x This subforum is dedicated to the Crew and MODs only. This is usually where planning and formulating is done. >x>''' And it is also where the BEAST resides.
