Forum rules
A. Posts are to be made in the relevant forum. Users are asked to read the forum descriptions before posting. Users consistently posting to the wrong forum may be given a warning. (see policing below).
B. Members should post in a way that is respectful of other users. Flaming or abusing users in any way will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning.
C. Members are asked to not act as “back seat moderators”. If members note an issue which contravenes something in this policy document they are welcome to bring it to the attention of a member of the Moderator Team. Please use the “post report” feature to report posts. Do not respond to such topics yourself. Members who constantly “act” as moderators may be warned.
D. Members should remember this board is aimed at a general audience. Posting pornographic or generally offensive text, images, links, etc. will not be tolerated and will lead to a warning. Exception is made for the Adult sub-forum, but posting of pornographic imagery is still discouraged.
E. Members are asked to respect the copyright of other users, sites, media, etc. Users linking to or openly asking for information on full comic scans, etc. will receive a warning and their post will be removed.
F. Members are asked only to post in English, as this is an English speaking community.
G. Members should respect the bandwidth of other users and sites. The use of inline (![]()
[/IMG]) image tags pointing to data stored on third party systems for which the user has not received permission to link to may be removed.
H. Members should post in a way which is consistent with "normal writing". That is, users should not post excessive numbers of emoticons, large, small or coloured text, etc. Similarly users should not SHOUT or use excessive punctuation (e.g. ! and ?) in topic titles or posts. Users consistently abusing this will be warned.
I. Members should use an appropriate, descriptive subject when posting a new topic. Examples of bad subjects include; "Help me!", "I'm stuck!", "What if...", etc. Examples of good subjects include; "American Comics General Thread", "Looking for images of Scrooge's family", etc.
J. Spam is not tolerated here under any circumstance. Users posting spam will be warned and their post removed.
K. The moderating, support and other teams reserve the right to edit, remove or put on moderation queue any post at any time. The determination of what is construed as indecent, vulgar, spam, etc. as noted in these points is up to Team Members and not users.
M. The above forum rules where applicable also apply to private messaging. Abuse of the private messaging system may lead to warnings (as above) and/or the revocation of private messaging.
Signatures
A. Signatures are limited to being 200~250 pixels in height, including any text. Having incredibly large signatures is unnecessary and distracting. They are also limited to 500 characters, due to software limitations.
B. Please do not include any images with extremely large file-sizes either (e.g. very long animated GIFs) or animations that are overly distracting (e.g. rapid or bright flashing). If found, these images will be deleted and if the problem persists, a warn or suspension will follow.
Avatars
A. Avatars should be no larger than 150x150 pixels.
B. Avatars must not contain animation or include graphics which attempt to portray the ranks or avatars of the staff.
C. Avatars are subject to the same conditions as posts with respect to the general forum etiquette.
D. Users abusing these rules will be warned or have their avatar privileges revoked.
Policing
A. This forum operates a three strike policy. Users will be warned a maximum of three times for any and all offences in a three month period. If the need arises for a fourth warning a temporary ban will be put in place.
B. Abusive arguing with team members after having received a warning will lead to an immediate additional warning. Should this exceed three strikes a temporary ban will be put in place as above.
C. Users who feel they have been unfairly warned are welcome to contact the staff, preferably the admin.
D. Any attempt to circumvent a temporary ban or other moderator action will lead to a permanent ban of your account(s). Circumvention includes re-registering or using an already registered account under a non-banned username. Other examples include changing IP addresses, using a new email account or other action that can be taken to evade moderator action to hide your identity as the owner of the sanctioned account.
E. An exception to the three strike rule applies when users contact team members personally (via any method) and post insulting, indecent or vulgar material. Such users may be subject to an immediate permanent ban.
F. Permanent bans are a last resort and thought is given before implementing them. While we may consider lifting permanent bans from time to time this is a rare occurrence.

Just something that occurred to me, and I'm not feeling like integrating amongst all the "legalese" above.
The primary mission of this forum is to discuss Disney comics. Please avoid political extremisms.
Allow me to explain. I really don't want to limit the freedom of discussion of anything, provided there's no swearing, etc. etc., but in this age of political distancing between the ideologies that you can see everywhere, I just want to reinforce at the end of the day we're here to discuss comics. If you're talking with someone, I'd rather you consider them first as "fellow forum-user" instead of "that conservative/liberal I hate". Be respectful of others' political opinions, both in reading them or in your writing, and remember that at the end of the day that other person is a human. This kind of ideological extremism is a trait I do not like in the modern internet, let's try to not drag it here too.

That said—while I may have been willing to chime in here, in the future please try to avoid asking me to publicly judge my company's decisions. I'm involved with some and not with others, and under certain circumstances you'd kind of be putting me on the spot. Thanks for understanding.
Consider it a rule added that any official Disney Comics people are free to ignore questions here without it being considered bad posting etiquette or anything of the sort.
