Thread Titles Rules - UP'D 10/01/08 - PLEASE READ!!

Updates in bold italics.

There's been several problems lately with thread names. So, after discussion, here's the rules on thread titles:

~Thread titles must be about your ship ONLY, just like no other ship exists
~Thread titles cannot contain any references to other ships
~Thread titles cannot contain any quotes from the actors or names of the actors (stick to the characters)
~Thread titles cannot contain anything that is considered "bashing" other ships or characters (we mods know when that is happening)
~Thread titles cannot contain anything rated above PG-13 (anything explicit or suggestive) because some shippers do not watch all shows and may see a title in a different way than intended

When it's time to vote:

~ Thread name discussion needs to take place after there's at least 900 posts
~ When discussing ideas for thread names, please make sure you still have at least three lines of on topic posting in addition to the thread talk. The important thing is good discussion, not worrying about a thread name.

~ A new thread will need to be created with a poll before voting can take place
~ No more than ten choices can be voted on.
~ The poll can only remain open for 48 hours. Once the new thread name is decided - a mod will change the thread title.
If you have to ask yourself if a thread title is appropriate, then it's probably not. Feel free to PM a moderator if you're unsure of a title.

I'm sure you guys don't want it to come down to this Name of ship - # of thread, which is an option if it continues.

Most important of all

If a moderator tells you that you cannot use a title, then it can't be used. TBonz and/or an administrator should not have to come into the thread and tell you a title can't be used after a moderator, or more than one moderator,tells you it can't be used.

So, everybody, think of your ship and how you feel about your ship when you are picking your thread titles.

Please acknowledge that you have read and understood.

Thanks guys :)

Yes, Captain! The GSR Prude will help keep things on the PG side in our thread titles. :)

It's hard not to break the PG-13 rule, but I'll do my best to comply. :D
