Rules Of Bleach Forums

General Rules


1.Members are only allowed ONE account, you're only allowed 1 name change
so try and choose your name carefully.
Members found to have more than
1 account will lose them all.

2.No personal attacks. You're free to express yourself but please leave other members of the community out of it.

3.No complaining about scanlation release times, quality or groups.
They're doing you a free service with their own time and you're not
their customers, so be grateful and say thank you now and then. If you
have a concern about their scanlations, contact them privately.

4.No racist / pornographic or otherwise inappropriate content will be tolerated.

5.No excessive use of profanity.

6.No spam. This includes meaningless and one word posts. The only time
this rule will be overlooked is on release threads, where something
other than a "thanks" or "thank you" isn't really needed.

7.Make meaningful threads. Worthless or redundant discussions may be
removed. Also please be sure your thread titles are not vague and show
what the thread will be about.

8.No double posting. Edit your previous post.
Use the search feature! Whether you are looking for a thread, a piece
of information or want to start a thread use the search feature first.
This helps reduce redundant threads.

9.Do not link to pay for manga/anime websites under any circumstances.
Any case of trying to direct traffic to those websites will result in
the immediate and permanent suspension of your account. You may still
discuss the topic of pay-for-manga/anime sites, just don't send people
to them.

General Image Posting Rules
(Applies to Avatars/Signatures too)

Don't post early spoiler pics outside of their designated threads, and never post a spoiler without using the [spoiler] tag.
No pornographic images, this includes hentai. Please discuss with an
admin or mod prior to posting for permission if you feel your image
might break this rule.
Scanlation Rules
Don't steal. This includes using a scanlation, translation, or raw for
your own work without 1) permission and 2) properly crediting.
Don't change or alter a scanlation that isn't yours without permission.
Don't use Chinese scanlations (JojoHot, NarutoFansBand, etc...) for your own scanlations.
Main Page Release Tracker

Do not submit fake releases. Our administration will hand out 3 day
bans for this as it wastes our time. Repeat offenders will be
permanently banned.
All scanlation rules above apply to releases submit to the tracker.
Occasionally some groups may have their releases suspended from the
site for breaking the rules, do not attempt to evade this moderation by
adding the same group again under an alternate spelling or different
name.
Advertising Rules
Members are free to share other websites / services here as long as
their intentions are to genuinely benefit other members with those
links.
Referral / Affiliate IDs are not permitted on any links on this forum.
Advertising services of violent / offensive / adult / etc. nature are
not permitted. Manga / Anime for sale services are not permitted unless
they are official licensees of the product.

Infraction System
(Penalties for Rule Breaking)


So you broke a rule, what now? Luckily for you we're very lenient when
it comes to penalties for rule breaking. We make use of vBulletin's
infraction system and give our members 3 generous strikes before the
first action is taken. Nobody except forum leaders can view or add
infractions to your account. You will receive a private message from
the forum every time your account is penalized.

Here is an overview of the system.

The majority of first-time infractions are sent without a point value
(a warning). Warnings do not negatively affect your account in any way.

Points and warnings will come with an expiry date depending on the severity of the rule broken. Most will expire in 1-2 weeks.
Most rules are only worth 1 point, but severe violations may be worth more.
If you have 3 active points against your account (points that have not
expired), your account will automatically be given a 1 week ban.
Members who receive a 1 week ban are put on a permanent probationary
period. If they receive 1 more point at any time after their 1 week
ban, their account will be banned for good.
We reserve the right to bypass all formalities with the infraction
system and ban any user we feel is detrimental or threatening to the
community in any way.
