I am totally confused on what is happening right now. :D

This should be right I hope.

Also Tara I want to see Hao go up against Reisen the murderous moon rabbit. That would be amazing. /and in the meantime Maka will just be reading her book, not giving a damn about what's going on...

That would probably lead to the destruction of the Bar, if I let Hao still have the Spirit of Fire. |D;

Did you purposely unsticky The 'What are you currently Listening to' thread, Netto? :o

Good going Netto (with the double post).

Now, every new rules thing needs an editor. Comments in red.

Other Trivia Rules

The Four-Word Rule

This is one of the most ignored rules at PC. And it's an important one.

In other words, all posts must contain AT LEAST FOUR WORDS per posts, not including character min. bypass.
Three word posts will not do. Numbers and smilies don't count as words. Make it four words + and worthwhile, please.


Character Minimum Bypass

Another ignored and important rule. Other Trivia is getting worse. Other Trivia is getting worse at WHAT? Even if the header's there, you should still specify.

Ever tried to make a post under 24 characters long and gotten a popup message saying it's not long enough? That means your post is too short! Yet people constantly bypass with characters - e.g. exclamations marks and ones. Bypassing is putting in an offtopic message to make the post longer so it will be accepted. Yes, this counts as spamming. Andy repetitive offencses will be warned. Report them, people! I see no need for the spaces between the offense and report sentences.

Example:
........................
(character limit)
*kills character limit*

Both bypassings [four words and character limit] will be infracted with 2 points that will last for two weeks upon repetition. You should probably put the examples in quotes or divvy them up with "---" or something to show they're separate.

The Revival Rule

Please refrain from posting in threads that haven't been posted in during the last 30 days. If a thread is too old, make a new one. Constant revival [five times or more] will be infracted with 2 points that will last for two weeks. Again, the extra space was unnecessary.

No Chat Threads:

There is already the Daily Chit-Chat thread in Other Chat for random discussions. Exceptions would be the three counting threads: DLTMSA, TCTI, and WOFZ.

No More Than Three Active Counting Games At a Time:

Most counting games eventually become chat threads with numbers, of which there are already too many. So, there needs to be a cap on how many counting threads can exist at once. Only when one of the active threads does not get a post in 30 days can another counting thread be made.

Rating Games

Just a short note: Don't bypass. In rating games like "Rate the Signature of the User Above", put the rating out of ten, and then a short constructive critiscism.

Example:
5/10

Your pic is too blurry and it ruins it.

Also, don't go around and post things like "I already rated yours before, [insert same rating here].". If you already have rated the user's Signature/Avatar/Theme/etc. before, just wait for someone else to post!

Guessing Games

When creating a guessing game, please put thought into them.
Games like "Guess how old I am", are pointless, as they will come to an end pretty quickly, and will be closed. If you feel the urge to create a guessing game, please think of something that won't end after 10 posts. Unnecessary space again.

Duplicates

As with the revival rule;, don't make threads that already exist and are still active. Before creating games please search for existing and active threads. STILL the extra unnecessary space.

No Going Off-Topic (Now reworded):

(This rule is already here, but I'd like to reword it a bit).

This may be the Other Trivia forum, but the threads have specific topics that need to be adhered to as well. If there are comments you'd like to make about another person's post, use Visitor Messages on that member's profile or the Post Comment feature of that same post. If it's absolutely necessary that you need to make a post in the thread, then include something relevant to the game. Take this The One Above exchange, for example:

Originally posted by Jack
^ (Jill) has an avatar from a TV show, but I don't know which TV show specifically.

Originally posted by Jill
^ has an avatar that features Blaziken.

My avatar is from The Colbert Report, by the way.

Copy+Paste (The One Above)

You cannot copy and paste posts. By that, I mean you can't copy + paste "^ is the poster above this post" or whatever the new thing is. The idea of The One Above is to get to know other members or give some information about them, not just repeat yourself over and over.

The games in OT are here for you to make friends and get to know each other better;, not for you to just post in. Plus, you're not gaining anything from just posting mindlessly.

Other

Have some common sense. Abide by all the normal PokeCommunity rules.
Remember if you see any posts that break rules, report them! Please do not mini-mod.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or another member of the higher-staff and we'll be happy to help you.

Remember to have a good time and enjoy yourself! Thank you guys. :D
