BGN Forum Posting Guidelines
I hope this sticky will make posting to the BGN forums easier. Basically everything here falls under the category of common sense but it's now in writing if anyone needs it. Again, these are forum guidelines--the Guild itself has one rule: Have fun, not everyone who posts here is in the guild and not all guild members post here...And sometimes forums need extra help.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to PM me! ~Indagatrix
Signature (sig) Guidelines:
There are premade signatures available at the gift sig sticky. However, you do not have to use the BGN provided sigs. When making your own sig common sense is the key. Look at the existing sigs in use and see if your's has a similar feel. Do not make it so large that it takes away from what is being posted on the threads. Also the use of pornographic or denigrating material in your sigs (or on the forum) is not acceptable.
Posting Guidelines:
Again, use common sense when posting. We have a diverse group of members and we are here to enjoy each other's company and to play Guild Wars. Slurs based on race/gender/sexuality/religion/etc..., trolling, flaming, and general hatefulness will not be tolerated and will be removed. Individuals found conducting in the above manner will be banned from the forums. The BGN message board has a built in language filter. Like all filters, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Please report questionable material to a moderator to follow up on.
Please try to remain on topic. For more information on Off Topic posts see the PSA.
Searching. We have a lot of threads on BGN Forum. We have talked about a lot of topics. Please use the BGN Forum Search to see if your topic has been discussed already. If it has go ahead and post to the existing thread. Unless a thread has been locked--a thread is always available for further discussion.
Use of BGN or Beguine Guild:
When you are on the Guild Wars game roster as being a member of BGN you may use the initials BGN or name Beguine Guild as needed in your Guild Wars communications. Please remember that when you post on other forums and use the BGN/Beguine Guild name you are representing more than yourself. Be sure to act in a respectful manner. If it wouldn't pass as fun behavior on the BGN Forum then don't do it on someone else's. Note: The sigs for people without screen shots, designed by Indagatrix, are the exception to this rule.
--------------
^ Bottom line : The BGN Forum should be a place that all Guild Wars players can visit without having to cover the screen when Mom, little brother, Grandma, or Significant Other walks in the room.
Thanks again and enjoy your visit to the BGN forum! -- Indagatrix
