Welcome to the Official Epic Universe Forums. It is our wish that your stay here is both a pleasant and rewarding one. To ensure this, we ask that you please familiarize yourself with the following rules and regulations.

The following are strictly prohibited:

Personal Attacks- Personal attacks of any kind will not be tolerated. This includes hurtful name calling, divulging of personal information, calling out, and member harassment, including any and all attempts to "bait" other members into disciplinary action.

Offensive Content- Members are prohibited from posting or linking to any material of illegal, violent, hateful, profane, or sexual nature. Included in this are any attempts to bypass the forum censors.

Spamming- The following actions are considered spamming: multiple posts or threads of the same subject matter in a short period of time, a multitude of meaningless posts in a short period of time (to be interpreted as an attempt to raise a post count), and any and all solicitations outside of all allowed content in the Marketplace.

Formation of Cliques- Cliques, zones, dens, or any discriminatory groups are prohibited on any and all Epic forums.

Misleading Thread Titles- Misleading thread titles, or "selling a thread," is strictly prohibited.

Mis-Posting- Posting a thread in the incorrect forum or board is grounds for immediate disciplinary action. For example: posting a spoiler in Freetalk, or posting a request for signature artwork in General Discussion.

Bi-posting- Members are prohibited from registering more than one username. The consequence for this behavior is a lifetime ban from the forums.

Sig Pic Guidelines- All sig pics must be a MAXIMUM of 500 pixels wide, and of no greater file size than 51200 bytes, or 50 kb. No exceptions. In addition, all sig pics must maintain a certain degree of professionalism (AKA, not detract from the professionalism of the board).



Disciplinary Action
Depending on the severity of the above infractions, as judged by the ruling moderator, the consequences will either be a suspension or lifetime ban.
