Useless PostsSpamming:
A useless post is typing a one word reply, or post, in which you make no conversation, no attempt at furthering the conversation and no attempt at making sense. Spamming is saying the same thing over and over again, posting a large post that makes no sense, or is also useless, or posting on a lot of threads in a small amount of time. If you do post a lot, make sure your posts are meaningful, or except them to be removed, and even receive a warning or infraction.
Double Posting:
Double posting is posting twice in a row on one thread. Say there was a thread called, "Guides" and you said, "Thanks for the guide" Then the next post was another post by you.
Breaking any of these rules will result in immediate ban or infractions.
Quality Posting
Okay, please keep in mind though this is a RSPS website, it is to be taken seriously. Of course on occasion we all get a good laugh out of a troll, a funny joke, etc. But you must learn when it's okay, and when it's not.
Examples:
"this is funny"
"nice man thanx"
"good share msg2short"
Now, you may be thinking... what's the big deal? The big deal, is that the forums are completely filled with LQ posts, i'm sure you've all heard this classic from your parents... "If you don't have anything good to say don't say it at all!" This also applies for the forums, if you're viewing a thread and don't actually have any feedback on the subject, you just want to get up your postcount... Don't bother posting. You're posts will be deleted and you will receive warnings, infractions, and eventually bans.
Rules apply to everyone! INCLUDING STAFF!
