PSNProfiles' Site/Forum Rules

 
These rules will be enforced, you will receive warnings, further warnings will lead to suspensions and bans. These rules apply site-wide, including gaming sessions and guides.

1. Talk properly, "tlkin lik dis" won't save you any money.
2. Don't creep on female members, you weirdo.
3. Don't give other members grief, this is a nice place.
4. No account or game sharing, physical items are allowed but it's not our responsibility if something bad happens.
5. No short one/two word posts unless it completely makes sense. It's spam.
6. No posts with just an image/meme, it's also spam.
7. If your post content has nothing to do with the topic, do not post it in that topic.
8. No links to illegal material.
9. No sexual material or sexually-oriented discussion.

Rules 5 and 6 are allowed in topics that rely on those types of replies.

Guidelines Amendments:
 

1. No boosting threads. We have Sessions for that. If you want to make a special case for why you should be exempt from this, contact a Moderator and plead your case *before* you start a thread.

Threads discussing boosting methods are fine, but do not post requests to boost in those threads. Boosting requests in existing threads are off topic and will be removed. 

 

2. No duplicate threads. If there is already a thread of the same (or close enough) topic, post in there. Don’t start a new thread. Is doesn’t matter how old it is, we don’t care about necroing threads here. 

 

3. Please don’t just post a video link. Embed the video and give some context to the video by posting at least a sentence describing why you are posting that video. No, the thumbnail isn’t enough and no, watching the video to find the context also isn’t enough. Put a little more effort in to it. Add [Video] to the beginning of the thread title when creating the thread. (Example: [Video] Attacking Zegeta 2 Platinum Walkthrough)

 

4. Don’t name and shame. This is akin to giving grief to another member. There are ways to report suspected cheaters and you should Report posts or contact a Moderator any time you would feel compelled to Name and Shame. 

 

5. You don’t HAVE to respond to anything. If you are feeling like someone is giving you grief, your options are:

 

A. Give grief back and share the experience of getting warning points for *also* breaking the rules

B. Ignore the posts. Bonus for putting the member on Ignore. 

C. Report the posts. Mods don’t see every post. If someone is breaking rules, bring attention and let the moderators moderate. No, you don’t get to find out how we enforced the rules. We generally don’t follow up with reporters. 

D. Message a moderator. Same as reporting but more likely to get a generic response back if you’re looking for that. 

 

6. No save file sharing or requesting save file sharing. This is akin to No account sharing in the rules. 

 

7. Just because there isn't a posted rule, doesn't mean you can do it. Use some judgment about the intention of the posted rules and follow the spirit of the rules.

8. Post in English. Please use a translation tool if needed. All posts should be written in English and legible. 

 

9. Put spoilers in spoiler tags. No, it doesn't matter how old it is.

 

You may not receiving Warning Points for breaking these rules, but do not be surprised if they are enforced by Moderators.
