Ok, I see a lot of people either getting banned,breaking the rules,or getting warning's. So, I've devised a thread where I explain, "how did I get banned?" (If there is already a thread like this, then lock mine)
Spam:
Spam is the worst thing you can do. Some examples are, "That's a good idea" or, "Hi, I'm a new member!". To prevent this, only post things that are RELEVANT to the thread you're posting in.
Flame Wars:
This is a war of spam. Like, "Stop that" and, "Don't get on my bad side." To prevent this, henever a flame war has started, and you or someone else is involved in it, don't continue it. Just STAY out of it.
Mini-Modding:
This is whenever someone does something bad, and you say somthing like, "I'm reporting you," or, "You're going to get banned 0_o." To prevant this, whenever you see someone do omething bad, just hit the report button. A mod will give the person what they deserve.
Advertsing:
This is when you advertise a website. Examples are, "Go to -------" or. "Check out -------" This is also considered spam, I beleive. to prevant this, just PM the person the link. Inappropriate website's should NOT be pm'ed to someone.
Abuse/swearing
This one is the WORST. Its when you call someone a bad word/name. Examples are, "Shut up, you -------" or, "Lol. You're a ------" to prevant this, DON'T call ANYBODY a bad word/name. This goes for real life too.
Q/A about getting banned:
Q: What can I do when I'm banned?
A: It depend's on how long you got banned. You CAN'T post, or review thread's, I beleive.
Q: Why did I get banned?
A: Well, you probably repeated an offence numerous times. Like, you Mini-Modded one too many, or you swore 3-4 times.
Q: My friend got banned! I want him back... what can I do?
A: Well, your friend isn't that much of a friend, for banning themselves! But, you would have to ask a mod. They proabably wouldn't bring them back, just because you miss them. They need to learn a lesson!
Q: Can I get banned if eye type leik thiz?
A: No, but you shouldn't type like that. Its important to think of pokebeach as a test. Each post is an answer, and you have to have PERFECT selling,grammer, and advice. I learned this late in life, and now, I beleive that pokebeach is helping me and other's with our motor skills.
Q: Why did a mod send me a warning via pm?
A: You probably repeated an offence numerous times. This doesn't mean you're banned, but the moderator's will be watching you VERY closely.
Q: Can I say something bad to a person via pm?
A: Yes, but its not a good idea. Why on EARTH would you want to do something like that? The person might pm a mod, and tell them what you did. Try tobe nice to EVERYONE.
Q: Can I get banned by calling someone a N00b?
A:No. But, its not nice.
I hope this helped! Mods: You MIGHT wanna stickey this... Please post anything else I forgot!
