The following are the rules specfic for the Heroes board. There are main rules for Fanforum in general. Please take the time and read the Offical Fan Forum Rules and Regulations before posting. Remember to read the rules carefully. Failure to do so may result in your posting privileges taken away.

POSTING GUIDELINES
  • No Bashing Allowed. We take this rule really seriously. There should be no bashing on this board. This includes posters, real people (i.e. cast, writers, producers, etc.) and fan bases. Remember to respect everyone and their opinions. This includes anti-icons and anti-signatures. Please keep all icons and signatures positive as well as thread titles used on this board.
  • Remember to keep all conversations PG 13.
  • Keep Off-Topic conversations in threads to a bare minimum. The Burnt Toast Cafe is our off topic thread here.
  • No "Star Posting". Please don't post right after yourself, just edit your first post if you have something to add to what you originally said.
  • When a thread reaches 300 posts, remember a new thread has to be made. Please do not go over that amount.

ANTI THREADS
  • We currently do not allow any anti threads from being made here. This includes anti couples/anti characters. We feel this will affect the positive atmosphere here at this board and goes against our no bashing policy.

Added 04/17/09 At this moment in time, we would like to reiterate the importance of the first rule: No bashing allowed on this board at any time. This especially involves the issues of couples. Remember: Everyone is allowed to have their own opinion and should not be chastised in any way for it. If anyone is found breaking this rule and any of the others above, they will be dealt with appropriately.

Also, please remember to respect your moderators at all times on decisions made regarding these rules and the general rules of FanForum. We’re doing a job, at the end of the day, and want to enjoy the board as much as any of you. Please don’t make it a difficult job for us.



MAKING NEW THREADS
  • If you open a brand new thread, or a continuation thread, please remember to link back to the previous thread.
  • If you want to make a new thread, please double check with the board list to make sure the thread does not exist already. Also please pm one of us to double check if the thread can be made or not.
  • There should be no duplicate of threads.
  • Refrain from making thread titles that will offend other fanbases. This goes with the no bashing policy.

SPOILERS

The spoiler rules are as follows:
  • Spoilers are only allowed to be posted in the spoiler thread on this board or the spoilers board.

What is not a spoiler?
  • Promos that have already aired on TV are not considered to be spoilers.
  • Pictures from promos that have already aired on television or are from general promotional material at official websites or published in magazines are not considered to be spoilers.
  • Avatars made from promos that have already aired on television or are from general promotional material at official websites or published in magazines are not considered to be spoilers.
  • Episode descriptions
    1. Small snippets/blurbs from TV guide/entertainment weekly etc. are fine.
    2. Longer episode descriptions (like for example the ones FOX provides), are considered to be spoilerish and should just be discussed on the episode discussion thread until the episode airs or they should be posted with spoiler tags in various threads on the television boards here.

Everything mentioned above can be openly discussed on the board, except for the longer episode descriptions. Please use spoiler tags if you want to discuss those outside the episode discussion thread.

Using spoiler tags is very simple:

[*sp] text goes here [/sp*] (without the stars, obviously)

This refers to episode descriptions officially released by the network, not the info gathered from spoiler sites.
  • Absolutely no info regarding future events/developments is allowed. Everything that comes from spoiler sites like SpoilerFix, Kristin's column etc. unless it is put in the spoiler thread on this board.
  • Casting info is alright, as long as you don't give away any details regarding the character on the show. This also applies to the future pairings/hook ups. Once again, no info on the future events. Anything that gives away the season's summary will be edited out.

If you have any questions, or concerns, please don't hesitate to PM us

Your Heroes moderators,
Samira & Lauren
