The Marketer:
The Colossus Industries scenario design team, like all SD teams, is of limited interest to our forumers. The HeavenGames FMT graciously permits SD teams to create announcement, news, and recruitment topics in our scenario design forum, with the reasonable expectation that the topic discussions will not be artificially kept alive by spamming and topping.
We are permitting scenario design team topics on a monthly basis, with the expectation that those topics will be allowed to run a natural course of interest and allowed to sink on the topic list without updating (topping). Of course the topic itself can be edited, such as is done in recruitment topics with members lists.
Moreover, scenario design team topics are subject to closing at any time at the discretion of the Moderators, and forumers can expect that team related threads will be closed within a month's time regardless of activity. Our failure to enforce this policy, for whatever reason, shall not be construed as a waiver of our right to do so at any time.
CoC Violations Warning:
Spamming:
Unless a thread or forum is designated as an area ok for spamming, you may not spam. Spam includes, but is not limited to, the following:
Posting nonsensical messages
Flooding the forum with similar meaning messages
Inciting a forum war or riot
Blatant advertising
Advertising:
Please do NOT use any of our forums as an advertising medium for your own site or forums. Our staff doesn't wander over to your site and spam it with adverts, so the same courtesy is expected in return. Linking to your site in your signature is ok as long as it is not accompanied by a slogan.
If you are affiliated with a site that is relevant to the Gaming community and would like to link to it as part of an on-topic discussion, please contact a moderator first and be upfront in your message about the fact that you are linking to your own site. We wish to keep our forums free of the spam generated by promotion teams, public-relation campaigns, and other traffic-hungry webmasters.
We will not tolerate new threads for every weekly update on your site, nor will we tolerate forumers who seem to use their accounts primarily to promote other sites. Anyone who joins and immediately puts up a glowing review/endorsement of the latest product/service that has a public relations program / promotion team, or a thread telling us how great their site is within their first few days of posting will be permanently banned instantly.
