So we have these new sites coming out next week and new people will be coming onboard so I thought it would be good to make some Commandments for everyone to follow. Yeah we have a Terms of Service, but I'm talking about some simple rules that everyone can follow like don't post pics of your right nipple without warning.
So if you have any to share let us know and maybe they will make the page. All input is greatly appreciated.

No running.
No heavy petting.
Don't write spoilers without a prominent notice.

Hmmm I might have to adjust the heavy petting one. We all need some heavy petting at times.

If you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen?

Do not call people out in posts when you have a problem with them.

Thou shalt not IM Scrivs 40 times a day with things you broke on this site or he shall e-smite you :)

Do not ask a general question without providing some insight of your own. Example: What's your favorite color?
Treat people with respect no matter how stupid they are.

How about one account per person?
;P

That's important right there. You guys need to develop a smite button on your admin accounts/interface.
it doesn't even have to actually do anything, but if you have it there available to you I would wager member quality would ramp up dramatically.

Don't ask what you can't answer yourself. Or at least explain why you can't answer yourself. Having one liner notes is a no-no. Having too many one liner notes means a go-go.
You are responsible for their own notes. Unless it has taken a life of its own, don't post something up never to say anything again despite the courtesy of other readers in replying to it.
There is no troll.
There is no spam.
Opinions are allowed. Arguments will be looked at. Bigotry will be mocked. Stupidity will be booted.
Intelligence and civility is a prerequisite.
Freedom of speech doesn't equate to "freedom to say any stupid thing that crosses your mind at any given moment". Think before you post.
America isn't the only place on Earth.
Don't demand for respect when you haven't given any yourself.
There is a world outside Chawlk. It is advisable to stop refreshing the screen every once in a while and actually take a breath of fresh air.

Do not assume Tyme is mad unless she says so.
Do not tell Tyme to calm down because she's most likely not mad...until she is told that. Then she's mad...guaranteed.

I agree with Gnorb, don't call a person out, in posts.
Be polite, even if you disagree with someone. You might not go along with their opinion, etc., but you can agree to disagree, and then move on, without causing a nasty commotion.

Name-calling just means you have nothing to back your ish up.

I like the sound of the smite button - I'll give all of my points back if you let me press it! :)

@kamigoroshi:
Yeah, but it's the only place that matters. Isn't that basically the same?
BLASPHEMY! Also, I don't know where you're at (in America somewhere?), but here Chawlk doesn't pollute the air. In fact, it actually freshens it and leaves it with a slight lemony scent.

@Gnorb: Noooo...not America. A place outside it filled with wonders, beauty, horrors and interesting women. Hence going outside actually leaves you coming up with some very interesting tidbits. A worthy addition to the world of Chawlk...with a fresh minty after taste. :)

What about something regarding cross-posting over several of the sites, even if it's not relevant to the site in question, unless the sites have a built-in method to perfom cross-posting such as tagging for use in other sites.
Oh that and using sentences that never seem to end and just drone on and on lacking the most rudimentary use of punctuation and grammar.
