House - The Clinic - House Introductions, Rules & Board Guide

**crazy_diamond** · 10-12-2009, 11:39 AM

Welcome to the House board!

We [chrissy - Chrissy, silentღscene - Jess and Mirella - Mirella] want to take this opportunity to welcome you to the Fan Forum family and the House Board.
We're glad you've joined us and we hope you'll enjoy your time here!

Here are a few rules to take note of.
Please be sure to abide by them so that this remains a fun and enjoyable place for everyone.

Please read the Official FanForum Rules first.

STAY ON TOPIC (NO CHATTY/STAR POSTING):
There is to be no "chatty/star" posting on this board. This is also in the general FF rules.
If you break this rule, you will be PMed quoting your post and hopefully you will see what you did wrong and not continue.

Examples of 'star/chatty' posting would be posting - hi, bye or just smilies and nothing more and this is not allowed.
Not to say you can't say hi or bye to your friends, but please make sure you post to add to the discussion of the thread.
If, at the moment, you really can't add something constructive and relevant to the topic of the thread, then we ask that you wait until you can.
For anything else, we have a perfectly good off topic thread you can post in.

DOUBLE/TRIPLE POSTING:
This is also against the general FF rules.
And we prefer you try not to double/triple or even more, post in a row.
However, there are exceptions, such as when FF or your computer is running slow and freezes or times out on you and
accidentally puts more than one post through, we understand you can't control that.
And if there's a thread which hasn't been posted in for a while and you'd like to add to it with new information, then you can post.
But other than that, please do not double or triple post.

POSTING PICTURES:
Please don’t post pictures any wider than 800 pixels so you don’t stretch the post table.
In consideration of members on dial-up, please post links to larger pictures (also known as HQ pictures) or post thumbnails of those pictures.

QUOTING PICTURES:
Please do not quote any images - this goes for pics, avies, banners etc.

FANART, MUSIC VIDEO'S AND ANY OTHER CREATIVENESS
Please repect the hard work these people put into making these things for others to enjoy.
If you didn't make it then you have no right to claim them as your own.
Do not altar anything in any way.
Do not go to other sites, forums etc and claim these things as your own.
If you want to rec or share these things with others please request permission of the creator.

AVATARS AND SIGNATURES:
Please make sure your avies and sigs are within the general FF rules.

• Avatars made from promos that have already aired on television or shown at the movie theatre are not considered to be spoilers.
• Avatars made from pictures of clips, sneak peaks, extended promos, episode stills and filming pictures should not be used until after the episode airs or until the movie is released.
This is because avatars can be seen all over Fan Forum, and we want to respect the wishes of members that don’t want to see any spoilers for an upcoming episode.
• Avatars and signatures that are designed to put down any fictional character or couple or their fans or which make any kind of threatening remark are not permitted.
This is because they can be seen all over Fan Forum and they take away from the positive posting atmosphere that we strive for here.

Any avies and sigs bashing any actors and members are not allowed and will be removed.
And any avies and sigs including any pornagraphic content or cuss words will also be removed, as this is also in the general FF rules and is not allowed.

Signatures are not to exceed the length of a 100x100 avatar.
Also remember the maximum amount of emoticons/smiles in a signature is four.

BASHING:
No bashing is allowed on this board whatsoever.
This goes for bashing against actors/FF members/anyone.
Please don't talk about other threads in the thread you're posting in.
Please note that anti-threads are not allowed on the board and will be closed if they are opened.

If you are having a problem with another poster please contact one of the moderators to explain the problem.
Please keep all issues off of the board and contact the poster if you feel the need to via PM.

EPISODE DOWNLOADS:
Downloading of episodes is strictly against Fan Forum rules.
Links to any download sites will be edited out.
Do not advertise websites that allow downloading of episodes.
If you'd like to ask/answer this stuff, please do so via PM.

OTHER MESSAGE BOARDS:
Linking to and or mentioning other messages boards is also is the general FF rules and is not allowed.
If you bring something over from another board, you can of course credit the person, but do not link to the board itself.
The same if you'd like to link to another site which contains a message board, you can link to the site itself, just not the message board.

STARTING THREADS:
Whenever a thread reaches a maximum of 300 posts, we will close it, and you can start a new one.
Please read the board guide topped at the head of the page to make sure a thread you would like to post isn't already a part of the board and if you find that it's not, you can feel free to post it.
If you're not sure whether a certain thread is allowed, just ask any of us and we will gladly help you out.

SPOILERS:
The use of spoiler spaces is no longer allowed on this board as it was getting out of hand.
Please keep all spoiler talk and spoiler reaction off this board.
Some posters wish to remain unspoiled and there's always the Spoiler board for discussing upcoming storylines.
Promos aired on TV or clips on the Fox site are not considered spoilers and can be discussed on the board.

• Pictures from promos that have already aired on television or shown at the movie theatre are not considered to be spoilers.
• Pictures of clips, sneak peaks, extended promos, episode stills and filming pictures that are available on the Internet and have not been aired on television or have not been shown at the movie theatre
before the movie is released are considered to be spoilerish, and they should only be posted in designated threads for the upcoming episode or movie.

If you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to PM us: chrissy1302 - Chrissy, Mirella - Mirella and silentღscene - Jess.
