It's not that we don't trust you. We do and we love you too. It's just here at the CVW, we have a few rules...
Registration and Accounts
Multiple Accounts
- Do not make multiple accounts for yourself. If you have someone who lives at the same location, let us know before (or as soon as possible after registering.)
Sharing Accounts-
We recommend you don't share accounts. Any attempt to say 'someone else did it on my account' as an excuse will not fly. Your account is your responsibility. If someone else has access to your equipment... log out.
Deleting Accounts
- We don't delete accounts on request. If you want to leave, just log out and leave.
Story Posting
Posting
Please post your story to the proper forums.
All story content must have a content rating (G, PG, PG-13, R) in the title. R rated stories may have to be password enabled depending on the context of the content. These will be dealt on a case by case basis. Please inform an Admin member if story does not have a proper rating.
You may NOT post your chapters as separate threads. All of your story must remain in one thread. If we find this, we will condense your threads into one along with a warning. Repeat multiple thread posting will be met with suspension and possible termination on your account.
Comment aNd Critiques are permitted on all story. Please use constructive criticism only.
Please use spell and grammar check on your story before posting. While this is mainly an English forum, we understand for some English is not their first language. But if a story is too hard to read, it will be hard to help you grow as a writer.
Writers cannot play victim if someone leaves a CnC. A critique is NOT a justifiable reason to use the report button.
Do not bump threads.
Doubleposting is only allowed in the Stories and RPG sections for chapter/story updates.
If you are posting an edited version that has significant editing (something other than first draft) you may post it as a separate thread. Just put an indicator it is a revision in the title.
Behavior
Staff-
Respect and listen to staff. If you believe there is an issue, bring it up politely, or PM a mod or admin with the potential issue. If you believe an issue has come up that isn't being dealt with, also feel free to PM staff.
Attitude-
Horsing around and joking is expected to some degree. Be respectful of others. Basically... treat others how you want to be treated. Playing the victim will not be tolerated. Realize that someone giving an opinion other than yours is not an attack on you.
Cursing and foul language is allowed, but don't use it to make personal attacks.
Advertising-
If you wish to advertise your site, forum, YouTube channel, blog, etc please run it by with the staff first via PM. Failure to do so will have your thread removed without warning.
Politics
Stories that are political satire or commentary are perfectly acceptable in Storyville. Comments on those stories MUST be related to the story and cannot be used as a platform for your political disagreements.
Political debates, thoughts, news MUST go in the Off Topic Town forum. Please keep all discussions civil. If a thread turns into a flame war, a warning will be issued before the thread is closed and the infractors suspended.
Avatars and Signatures
Sexually explicit and violent content will NOT be allowed in your avatars or signatures. You will be asked to change your avatar or we will change it for you.
Maximum image size is 80 x 80 for avatars and cannot be higher than 500k
Maximum signature size is 150 x 400
Suspensions and Banning
This forum utilizes a three strike system.
First Strike-A PM will be issued to you warning you of your infraction
Second Strike-User will be suspended for a determined length of time depending on infraction
Third Strike-User will be permanently banned.
And with that, have fun!
