[Erik Destler]

The Rules of the DP/4th Gen Sections

#1

Rules of SPPf. Read them. Know them.

#2

When starting a thread you need to...

A. Look at the stickies/official threads first. If you need help, ask in the help thread. If you want to talk about shinies, go to the shiny discussion thread. And so on.

C. Be sure it's sensible.

D. Wait for a mod to approve your thread. Don't post over and over/complain that it's not appearing.

E. Use the search button to find if there's already a topic like it. Do not make duplicates of topics, or bother mods via PM to approve your threads. We'll get to it.

#3

When you’re posting...

A. Be sure you stay on topic—no random crap/spam.

B. Make sure you follow the basic rules of SPPf, and any rules that may or may not be specified in the first post of a thread.

C. Do not bump old topics.

D. Show respect. No flaming/trolling/et cetera.

E. If you know it's a spam topic, don't reply. If you know it's a troll, don't acknowledge it. The report button exists for a reason. ~

#4

If there's a problem in one of the threads...

A. Use the report button.

B. Do not minimod.

~*!*~

That's pretty much it ^_~

If you have a problem with these rules or just have a suggestion for the rules, don't hesitate to PM Volteon, SkittyOnWailord, Chaos Emerald, or me, Erik Destler, and we'll see what we can do.

This must receive special threatment, many threads are being Disapproved because they all contain one simple question, which should be posted in the Official Help Thread! (also a link in first post).
People, please, for any question about the game, that's the place to go!

There are special threads for Movesets (competitive/In-game respectively), Breeding and EV questions, but everything else, should be in the Help Thread ok!?

Thanks!
