Modifications in the Guidelines

[Davey Gaga]

Due to several complaints and to avoid Plagiarism, many of the Guidelines have been necessary to edit. To ensure that you are up-to-date with updates in the rules, I have created this thread to encourage members to re-read the new guidelines. While similar to before, I would urge you all to read the new ones. The following guidelines have been edited:

Seventh Heaven Inn

Library Headquarters
Help Desk Guidelines

Since I wrote each of these sets of guidelines myself (with the exception of "Help and Discussions Guidelines" - written by Dragonsoul), post here and I will help you however I can with them. If you have any suggestions with the new and improved guidelines, feel free to post that here, also.

HOLY CRAP! Im not reading all that, each guideline is like 4 pages 0.o
to my point of the post:
why did you change the guidelines?

Why?

Due to several complaints and to avoid Plagiarism, many of the Guidelines have been necessary to edit.

If you're not going to read them, I can't physically force you, but I strongly urge you all to. Also, there wasn't really any need in posting "I'm not going to read them", it could be classed as Spam. Finally, there's only a few, such as the TotA, which are long. Most are quite short and took less than half of an A4 page on Microsoft Word.

Summary of all previously mentioned guidelines: Don't do anything stupid! If people weren't obsessed with finding loopholes, they wouldn't have to be so long...

 

[Davey Gaga]

Well said, Adamant. It's very true and maybe Tidus Blade in particular should take that to heart. Remember a small conversation we had, Tidus?

 

[Gabranth]

plagiarism? of what were they stealing ?

 

[Davey Gaga]

Isn't the self-implied when we say "the guidelines had to be changed"?

Alright, I've answered that, but from this point on, only ask questions about the guidelines that have been written.

EDIT:
I've also added something on to the Opera House Guidelines, a small topic about Plagiarism.
