6. Other rules and notices
6.1 We expect you to act in a civilized and sociable manner. Attempts to insult, hurt or offend other users won’t be tolerated.
6.2 Racist, discriminating (or anything of that kind) jokes, remarks or phrases are prohibited.
6.3 We live in a free society; opinions are therefore free to have. However, if they are insulting or offensive they shouldn't be expressed in the channel. A free society also means other people are free to not be insulted, demeaned, discriminated against, alienated or otherwise.
6.4 Please do not give out ANY personal information (addresses, phone numbers etc.) in the channel - be it yours or another person's. This is very unwise in a public channel such as this, and so is not allowed for the protection of the individuals concerned.
6.5 Advertising game referral links in official channels such as #Bushtarion is not generally a good idea. It is left to op discretion as to whether a link or similar is suitable for the channel. Talking about other games and links is fine, however spamming links is not allowed and you will be dealt with accordingly.
6.6 Inciting others to violate any of the rules is indirectly breaking them yourself. This kind of sneaky behaviour can lead to a kickban without warning.
6.7 Joining and parting the channel very frequently is both unnecessary and annoying. Such "join floods" are not allowed.
6.8 Tricking users into doing things they don't mean to do is a nasty practice and is of no constructive use whatsoever. People who do this sort of thing may be kicked or banned without warning (Think: etc.).
6.9 If you have been banned, you are breaking network and channel rules if you purposefully evade the ban, and may be immediately re-banned with a longer duration than the original ban.
6.10 No passing on/pasting of messages in the room from banned users. (don't give banned users a "voice" in the room).
6.11 Please do not impersonate members of the Bushtarion Team; this includes both their direct nicknames ("Azzer") and close approximations. Impersonating channel staff is similarly not appreciated and will be dealt with accordingly.
6.12 Do not place any channel operators or game admin on your ignore list. There may be important information that needs to be told to you, or the operator/admin in question may have important things they need to discuss with you. If you have a problem with an operator abusing you, you can report them to Azzer, or appropriate NetGamers authorities.
6.13 "Tags" in names should be placed at the end of your nickname, not at the start. This includes your ID at the end of a round (the one time IDs are allowed) - for example "Azzer[1]", alliance tags "Azzer[SA]" (SaveAzzer), and any other forms of tagging (for example seasonal tags "AzzerXMAS"). Failure to place a tag at the end of your nickname when requested can result in you being banned from the room until you remove it. This is to help make the room both easier to manage, and easier for everybody to read.
6.14 If you are a new member to the forums and you have requested help it is mandatory for you to return the favor to the official helper by sending them 5 BC (an additional 5 BC must be sent to the person who was kind enough to quote this from the rules to you)
