About the spam I hope you actually moderate the spam, not like on other topics.

Hope it works out though.

We have discussed all these issues and we plan to watch this section very very closely. If there is any hint of flaming we will edit it and close the thread. The person will automatically be infracted. We posted the infraction warning and that is the only warning we will give. We opened this section to give our members a place to vent their frustrations. This CAN be done without naming names. It is simple - put a fake name for the person's real name, do not give details about the person/guild so that readers can identify who you are talking about, or simply leave names out of it.

Spam messages will be dealt with as we see necessary.

But, hopefully everyone will be respectable to what we are trying to do and the environment we are trying to give our members. If members start to abuse this section, it can be deleted as easily as it was created. I would hope that all of our members can appreciate our efforts and remain respectable of our guidelines and rules.

IMO, opening this section is like letting a kid play with matches near dynamite.

can i just clarify... i thought this section's post does count.. if post counts it means no spamming automatically isnt it?!

or is it just this stickied thread that post counts and other sections doesnt??

No spaming anywhere in this section, stickied or not. Post counts do count, therefore we will be monitoring spam. If it gets out of hand, we can make post counts not count and then it won't matter. But, for right now we wanted to let posts count, because this is a version of Fiesta General, it is just dedicated to rants and frustrations.

It is possible to rant without being so RAWR about it... if need be, I will make a sample rant.

We will be heavily moderating this thread. We can guarantee you that. We might even close some threads if it looks like it's gonna turn into flames. You might even end up calling us a bit tight sooner or later when we start moderating threads that might turn into flames. xD

Believe me, we wouldn't want flaming in any part of FiestaFan as much as you do.

Flaming is when you provoke a "fight" with another member. For example, name calling, racial slurs, personal insults, etc.

1. Change all names or keep it confidential. We don't want to hear "Argh that Lady_Loki is getting on my nerves!!! She's trained me 5 times!" Instead.. find a name that isn't on there like "Argh that Brock Sampson is getting on my nerves!!" Get it?
2. No hinting either! Like "That one guild that most of the mods are in is a bunch of idiots!"
3. No threats in ANY way!
4. Don't flame.. yes, you can rant without flaming, it is possible.

BUMPING this to REMIND people of ONE of the FEW rules that this forum does have.
