In order to keep the wiki orderly and professional, rules have been put in place. We (the collective staff team) will enforce these rules with fairness to keep the wiki safe. Refusing to abide by these rules will result in punishment. Are you interested in editing this wiki? Please read the Wiki Editing Policy before doing so. Keep in mind, these are wiki rules and not game rules.
Rules
1. Be respectful of others. Do not purposefully cause drama or call anyone out for something. If there is a conflict, then it can be resolved privately on another platform or on a message wall.
2. Do not steal art or use it without permission from the original artist; exceptions to this rule is anything that is free to use, as long as the artist is properly credited. This includes "non traditional" art forms such as 3D art or code.
3. Follow Fandom's Community Guidelines and Terms of Use. Any violation of these policies can result in a ban, depending on what the broken rule is.
4. Vandalism of pages is prohibited and will result in a block, the duration depending on the severity. If vandalism continues after the ban is up, then the user who committed it will be permanently banned. If a user commits minor vandalism, but the account is suspected of being used only to damage the wiki, the account will be permanently blocked.
5. If you see something that violates the rules, report it to an administrator or moderator. Please do not keep it to yourself for the sake of protecting a friend, as bad and unorthodox conduct is inexcusable. If it is found that one has been keeping something a secret for the sake of a friend, it will result in a warning.
6. Please do not steal or copy people's morphs or original characters without giving credit or steal any other personal property.
7. Any NSFW posts or edits concerning topics such as drugs, sex, etc. will result in a permanent ban with no appeal.
8. No cussing. While the words "hell," "ass," and "damn" are allowed, under no circumstances may any other explicit words be used. This includes censoring one letter of the word or indicating what the word is. An example of this is "f***." This is not a bannable or warnable offense and will instead be a warning; however, if any user is using any kind of slur or cursing in ways that are insulting to others, they will be warned or temporarily banned, depending on what the wiki administrators see fit.
9. Respect staff members, and do not argue with them. If you have an issue with their actions or would like to speak about them, please do not let it become a public spectacle, and instead contact them on their message wall.
10. Do not necropost (post on something where the most recent activity was over seven days ago).
11. Implying or showing discrimination against anyone because of their race, ethnic background, religion, gender, sexuality, etc. is not allowed.
12. People who feel threatened, uncomfortable, or shut down by someone else in a discussion thread have a right to report them to moderators, who may give the reported person a warning if the situation warrants it.
13. Discussing moderation/reporting a user publicly is not allowed. If another user is breaking the rules, they must be reported only on an administrator’s message wall.
14. Mini-moderating (where a user attempts to take the position of a moderator without being one, commonly abbreviated as mini-modding) is not allowed nor encouraged. If you see something in violation of the rules, contact a moderator or administrator on their message wall. Do not publicly report or call out anyone.
15. Use common sense. If you're not sure if you should say something or not, you probably shouldn't.
16. Do not promote ships that are considered toxic (i.e. pedophilia, incest, etc.).
17. Planned and/or sudden raids on the wiki is not allowed. Whether on this wiki, or others, it makes us look bad, and can tarnish your reputation as a wiki member. People work long and hard creating pages and do not appreciate when said work is vandalized/raided.
19. Do not bring up heavy topics including, but not limited to, suicide, self-harm, drug-use, or politics.
20. Creating and/or using accounts to evade blocks, manipulate an impression of an idea or post, or mislead users is prohibited.
Punishments
Failing to comply with certain rules will warrant a block, warning, or reminder in more minor cases. If a thread moderator gives anyone a warning, they are required to tell admins that they have done so and link the original post that shows what warranted said warning.
