Click on the button 'I Agree to these terms' below :
- You acknowledge that you have read these rules in their entirety ;
- You agree to comply fully with this rules ;
- You grant moderators of this forum the right to delete, move or edit any topic at any time.Each rule is listed below, along with examples of possible offenses. They are followed by some related questions and answers to help you understand the rule and its effects.
The following guidelines are not all-inclusive and may not address all manner of inappropriate behavior. Please remember that you must always treat others with the same respect and courtesy you would wish to receive. Use common sense when posting. Although it may not be in the rules to not post a virus, it should be common sense not to post it.
RULE 1: Inappropriate behavior/contentThis includes, but is not limited to: Racism, "flaming", posting of pornographic images, assaulting or harassing of other members. This rule may be interpreted at the moderator's discretion.
Additional Notes:
Flaming by definition is the act of purposely trying to assault another member to provoke a response of negativity from that member. That is why the act of it is prohibited.
RULE 2: Password Scamming Simple enough, self explanatory. You would not want somebody to steal your password from you, so why steal there's? This rule applies mostly to in-game, and can also go for the forums. If you are caught "item scamming", then most likely expect a permanent ban.
RULE 3: Impersonation of a Staff Member Users who tell you that they are staff and request personnel information will be harshly dealt with.
Impersonation includes having a symbol referring to a Staff Position in your avatar/signature.
How to identify the staff:
• All Forum Administrators have a Golden crown next to their name with an A on it for Administrator.
• All Forum Moderators have a green/silver crown next to their name with an M on it for Moderator.
RULE 4: Asking for Staff PositionsWe understand that most members wish to become a part of our staff, and therefore we have set this rule in place because the administrators are busy as it is. They do not need to have additional work piled on them with people asking for staff positions.
If the staff feel you have earned the position, we will approach you and ask if you'd like to be a part of the moderation team.
RULE 5: Advertising/WebsitesYou may Advertise Homemade Websites, or give a Website link to a member who requested it!
Anything that isn't in the above title is prohibited. Mis-leading links, pornographic sites, etc, are a bannable offense, and the ban usually means a permanent one. If another member is requesting the link to a site for a download, however, and you know it, feel free to give it to them. However, if you trick them with a misleading link, you will be punished, harshly.
Pickuppk is also not responsible for the links posted by members. Once outside of PickupPk Website, you are outside of the site's "acceptable use" of site links and site content.
RULE 6: Account Sharing/TradingYou may not share your Forum account with anybody else nor permit anyone else to use your account, and you may not accept a forum account that anybody else offers you. This goes for in-game accounts as well. If somebody is offering their account to you, simply decline. They are most likely doing this to see if they can get you in-trouble for feined "hacking".
RULE 7: Encouraging Others to Break RulesExamples of encouraging others to break any of the rules include:
● Convincing other players that the rules are different to what they actually are.
● Flaming other players (trying to get a reaction from other players by using offensive language against them.)
● Posting to say that you've broken a rule and got away with it.
● Anything which promotes rule breaking in a positive manner.
RULE 8: Misuse of Official ForumsMisuse of the forum message boards can go as follows:
-Harassment of other members
-Posting sensitive or otherwise, private, information about other members here on the forums that you had no right to post.
-Posting spam
-De-railing topics
-Harrassment of moderators
-Impersonation of staff
ROUGH AND FOUL LANGUAGE IS USED ON THESE FORUMS. BEWARE.
Rule 9: Respect Staff membersA Moderator's decision is final. No if's, and's, or but's. (Respect Moderator's. Simple enough)
They are not idols to make fun of, they run the forum and garner your respect. If you do have a problem with a moderator, take it up with an Owner.
Rule 10: Do not Backseat ModerateBackseat Moderating means:
-No acting like your a mod/admin
-Do not make posts like, "LOCKED" or "CLOSED"
-Do not make a thread that only a Moderator should make, for example: "Don't worry PickupPk is coming back" or "Stop Spamming." Pretty much anything related to that.
We know your just trying to help, but for the stuff above please let us take care of it.
You are responsible even if you don't read the rules.
