Before you go posting, please take a minute to glance over our rules. If you don’t follow them, you can receive warnings, posting suspensions, or even be permanently banned. Just follow the rules we have here, and you’ll be fine. If at any time you feel confused or unsure about the rules, please contact a forum moderator, and they’d be happy to help you.
Here is a rundown of the forum rules. Please observe these at all times.

Swearing: Swearing is not allowed on the forum. We have blocked many common swear words, but if you try to get around the filters, you will receive a block warn. Any posts or topics with language will be removed and the poster warned. This rule is not up for discussion, and anyone seen swearing will be punished accordingly. This is a forum that represents a real business, and due to the generally younger users of the Yugioh card game, we want to set a high standard for our speech and conduct.

Flaming: Flaming is any insulting comment directed at another member or group. While some joking can be fun, when people get angry and start attacking each other, they will be punished. Debating another member is fine, but derogatory comments are not allowed and will be removed. Flaming or attacking the forum staff will not be accepted, if you have any criticism, please construct it in a helpful way and visit the Other Things/Ramdom Topics section.

Spam: Spam can be one of many things:
- Posting the same message repeatedly
- Posting nonsense
- Going off the topic in a thread and not contributing to the discussion
Spam is not simply posting a lot. Spam is posting a lot without contributing anything and without a useful goal. If a moderator feels you are spamming, you will receive a verbal warning, and if you continue to make poor posts, you will receive warns/suspensions

Bumps: “Bumping” a topic is simply posting in it so that it rises to the top of the forum. Single bumps are acceptable, but repeat bumping will result in a warning or suspension. In certain forums, such as Decks or Trading, there are slightly different rules with regards to bumps, please visit those sections for those specific rules.

Illegal Material: The following items are banned from the forum and anyone posting them will be warned.
- Pornography/Suggestive Images. This includes any lewd poses, overtly sexual images, cleavage, revealing garments, or tight clothing. This is a Yugioh forum, not a fashion show.
- Anything regarding hacking/illegal downloading/cracking
- Impersonating a member of the staff or forum. This includes using staff tags as your avatar or in your signature.
- Drug/alcohol images or discussion
- Violence/gore/weapons or discussion
- Advertising for another website/forum outside of your signature

Signature: You can only spam in your signature, and you can only put 1 big, 2 medium or 3 small pictures in your signature.

If any of these rules are broken, there are several ways a member will receive consequences. First and foremost, if a moderator sees spam, flaming, or swearing, he/she will PM the member and remind them about the rules, and then delete the offending post. This is so newer members who aren’t accustomed to the rules won’t get harshly punished for a minor infraction.
If a member continues to break the rules, they will receive a block warning. This cannot be removed from your name unless there is a sustained, significant improvement in the member’s attitude.
After block warnings, several things can happen. Five blocks will result in the member being suspended from posting for a period of time. The member account might be banned from the forum, or in severe cases, the IP of the member might be banned to prevent other accounts.
To summarize:
First offense: Verbal warn
Second offense: Block warn
Further offenses: Block warns/IP ban/suspensions

Other Rules:
- Do not ask to be on a Staff position. Staff positions are given to those we find suitable for that set position.
- Watch the profanity. It's fine every now and then, but don't overdo it.
- No offensive or harmful posts/PMs.
- If you have any complaints about a Staff Member, please PM an Admin.
- No racial, ethnic, gender insults or any other discriminations.
- Post in the correct forum, posts in the wrong forum will be either moved or deleted.

Please follow these rules at all times, and enjoy your stay here.
