This city is afraid of me. I have seen its true face. The streets are extended gutters and the gutters are full of blood and when the drains finally scab over, all the vermin will drown. The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the whores and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!'... and Gon's Balls will whisper 'First... comes... rock!' Hah!  Made you stare at Naruto's Marshmallow!  Pushing the logo off-center to drive TheOcean insane.

Exclamation Forum Game Rules

Okay, folks. Here are some of the rules for forum games!

1. Be sure to check to see if the forum game you want to make isn't already made. No repeats!

2. Don't flame others or anything like that.

3. If you want your game temporarily locked or taken over, PM either one of the forum games assistant moderators (me) or a full mod. The former we can do. As for the latter, we'll have to see.

4. No cybering or sex games. You can kiss, cuddle, or hug, but keep it at a PG-13 level!

5. Because it might be needed, the Ban the Name Above is just for fun. No one's really getting banned.

6. Follow the other rules of the site.

7. Be a good sport. Don't be a jerk if you're going to win or have won, and don't be emo if you're going to lose or have lost.

8. Have fun! After all, these are forum games.

9. Don't take the games too seriously. They are, after all, games on the internet, and sometimes people will be jerks (or a word of your choice), but if we banned all the people on the site who are sometimes jerks, we'd have no one left. Keep in mind that there may be some level of joking around and roleplay involved in these games. Some games involve players voting to remove other players as part of the game. If you take offense to this, then you might not want to play these games.

10. NEW If you're not part of a forum game's round, don't post during that round. Wait until it's over before posting.

Would I be allowed to bar someone from participating a round that I host in a game for any reason?

It depends on the situation.

Yeah, I remember it was stated back on the old version of this site that forum games don't need approval anymore when it got its own forum separate from the Random Discussion forum.

Of course, I could be wrong...

There's no point in forcing people to get approval now. If it's not appropriate, it'll just get locked.

I think someone who plays forum games regularly should moderate this instead of you two. Just my two cents. Neither of you seem to know how to handle things properly here.

Not meant as an insult, of course.

... I kind of agree with this statement. >_> But I suppose you should be given the chance to prove yourselves.

Both Masty and I watch forum games. If any issues arise, you can PM us. Plus we aren't the only moderators in this subforum. The regular mods (as in DA and JR) also moderate this subforum.

Watching and playing aren't the same thing. Sign up to some and play. It'll help confidence in you.

Don't have time. I actually feel it's better to for me to not participate so I can be objective. Not to mention I've been modding this subforum for weeks. Why is it all the sudden now an issue?

Because mods should be active in the forums that they moderate over. How would not participating make you more objective? That's a cop-out answer.

If you don't have time, then hand it over to someone else. Though, seeing you around a lot recently, it seems you do have plenty of time to play games like DNTFG, even not completely actively.

Ah, but I am active in this subforum. Usually I'm surfing like 80 different pages at once, or getting ready to go to work... I don't have the desire or time to type out a long winded turn.

By the way, I apologize if I was rude or anything. I don't necessarily mean to insult you or anything of the sort.

Either way, I suggest locking this topic. There's no reason for it to be open. Your choice, though.

It's open in case there are any questions that the general userbase may need answered, and I see nothing wrong in a little debate.

Okay, I understand.

Though, I think you should take out the rule about 'taking over' a forum game if neither of you are really capable of taking over a game due to inactivity. It's a good idea, but I think forum games should regulate themselves in that regard.

It would probably be Masty taking over the game. If a game is inactive it may be locked until someone else wants to take it over if neither of us are unable to.

He may not be able to take control of some games, especially considering that many people may want a lot of games to go on at the same time with no gm there.

I'm sorry, but I don't see that as a realistic rule.
