Well i would like to start off saying thanks for the job,i did not ask for it they came to me,so i hope i can do the job given to me in the aid of the site and the game. i am glad to help in any way i can to keep moving forward to the goal everyone here wants the most.
i am X military(Army Ranger 11N60/18D)(100% service connected disabled Veteran) so i do not see any gray in rules, i will not favor anyone in the enforcement of them on this site/area,but i am sure the other MODs can always chain me if need be. this does not mien i am not friendly, and will not help you if you need it,but i will expect all the rules to be followed as they are written.
#1 SIGs
i would like to ask all the Sig makers out there for aid in making new Sigs for those Members that are over the Rule limits,and cannot make/or edit their own. i will be looking around and checking all i see starting in the morning,if you are over you will get a PM when i see it, and be asked to change it within a reasonable amount of time,with a link to the request tread added.
Sig Rules
Physical dimensions of sigs are as follows
500pxl X 300pxl
That means EITHER 500pxl wide X 300pxl high OR 300pxl wide X 500pxl high no exceptions.
If your sig is 400w X 320 it is in violation. Anything over the 500 X 300 criteria is not allowed.
The filesize cannot be over 40k
If you don’t know how to check your sig follow these instructions
1. Put your cursor over the image
2. Right click your mouse
3. Scroll to "properties"
4. under image properties there is the url for the pix then the physical dimensions “width and height” then size of file.
No profanity is allowed in your sig image or your avatar.
**NOTE** Only one sig pix is allowed. Smilies (as long as they are hosted on Seibertron) are allowed in sig "quotes"
If you need your sig resized there are many sig makers here that can help you just go to the new sig thread in the Transformers discussion area and ask for help there.
viewtopic.php?f=27&t=223From now on members that break the rules will first get a warning to change/re-size their sig and if not done within a reasonable time period then we simply edit their profiles and take the pix out .
Addendum: HMW Altmodes may be used in sigs in addition to the regular sig pic, however those altmode images must be hosted by Seibertron.com. The full list of images is here. You may have a maximum of three of these images.
#2 SPAM
i would like to point this out for future reference.
i hate spam,always have and always will,it just looks so slimy.
but yes, i do hate spam,just not that kind.
topic highjacking is just wrong in my eyes,it is like teaching a class,and someone raises their hand and asks a question,or states a issue ,but others in the class act rude talking to each other while the topic is being addressed. if you want to chat about a non-related topic,start one of your own,PM it, or IM it to each other,do not waist my time or the other readers time with non-related gossip, address the issue in your view/add input,or stay out of it. when a question or statement starts to sound like hallway BS ,there is a infraction in my eyes.
these will be handled case by case,as this sometimes just takes place with the flow of the debate,.
#3 be nice and PG
little kids come here,so if i see it,read it,or have to ask myself is this breaking the rules,when i think of a child reading it i will enforce. think of me as the guy that cleans his guns on his girls first date, and will treat this issue as such.
dang that was long,but if you have questions ,ask,other than that have fun,think twice, and play on.
