Here are some very simple things that I think all you Nubs should know:

1) Don't double post. There is a "modify" button which you can use to edit your last post. Double posting is just spam and there is no need for it on these forums. The mods are here to make sure that spam is limited, and they have better things to do than going around and editting all your posts.
2) (For Create-A-Unit) Don't just burn a unit, say why the unit isn't good. Otherwise you are just spamming and the person doesn't know what they did wrong, so they do it again (Props to Prophet for reminding us all on this topic)
3) (For Create-A-Unit) I was really bad for this. When posting multiple units, don't post them separately. Make one post with them all in it (Props to Ace for giving me a hard time about this ;))
4) Keep profanity to a minimum. You are allowed to swear here, but only in moderation, and very limited words. I don't think I need to say which words are inappropriate (Props to Prophet again).
5) Read a topic from start to end before you decide to post. A) You may bring up a point that has already been discussed, and B) A conclusion may already have been made. There is no point to re-starting dead topics, as I have stated in an other thread.
6) If you don't like someone, don't argue with them on threads. The only thread this is permitted on is "The Pissed Off Page", and it was the whole reason I created it. Better yet, PM the person, but leave threads for relevant information.
7) Treat others with respect, and don't abuse the privelage of having people here. I am referring to all of you swarming OmegaShin with questions. He is busy, and he isn't the only person you can ask for help. There are other admins and mods that I feel have no problem helping you out, so long as they aren't busy themselves and you don't constantly ask them for help. Just because OmegaShin has the highest stats, doesn't mean that you need to have him help you. You don't even necessarily need to ask a member of the mod/admin team. I am always willing to help, and have no problem with people PMing me.

Follow these easy steps, and the forums will stay a much happier place. :cool:

9) Learning what a Sticky is, and to be sure to read all guidelines and regulations before starting a new thread and/or posting in areas


Just thought more emphasis should be put on this with all the new members and new threads in the wrong areas of late

Also, this isn't really a rule, but

10) Respect the players who have been around longer than you, it's just common courtesy
