GENERAL GUIDELINES
1) See the next post below: Post with a healthy amount of positivity. This is not a forum designed for snark and bashing of television, but one for sharing in your love of the tv shows you watch.
2.) Netspeak is difficult to read, so please avoid using it. Also, please use a semblance of proper grammar (proper capitalization/punctuation) when posting.
3.) TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS CONSIDERED SHOUTING AND IS ALSO VERY DIFFICULT TO READ! Caps should be used for emphasis only.
4.) Do NOT hotlink images.
5.) Avoid double-posting.
ZERO-BASHING TOLERANCE
1.) Do not bash anyone ... ever. Do not bash fellow posters, other boards/communities, actors, directors, executives, etc. If they are a real person, do not bash them.
2.) Characters are fair game -- to a certain extent. What's acceptable: things like "In this episode when so-and-so did this I hated him/her!" Characters aren't real; their feelings will not be hurt. However, please attempt to layer your negative feelings with actual discussion of the character's history and why you're not happy with them.
3.) Fair criticism of actors, writers, producers is fair game as well. If criticism steps over the line to bashing, your post will be edited or deleted. If such an action is taken, you will receive an explanation.
SPOILERS
1.) Remember a spoiler is ANYTHING, absolutely anything, that has not aired first-run on US television. So you MUST use the spoiler code. Look for the little grey skull-head above your posting box -- -- and click on him. Put any spoiler between the spoiler tags that pop up.
2.) When you are posting spoilers, please try to post the source of the spoiler to avoid copyright violations.
3.) If a thread is specifically titled as "non-spoiler" -- do NOT put ANY spoilers anywhere in that thread.
Any member breaking rules on purpose will be subject to warning, a temporary and possibly a permanent ban at the discretion of the moderators.
