Pink Poogle Toy Forum

1. PPT is generally a G-PG rated forum. Try to keep your posts more toward G.
General Audience (G). All ages admitted. This signifies that the film rated contains nothing most parents will consider offensive for even their youngest children to see or hear. Nudity, sex scenes, and scenes of drug use are absent; violence is minimal; snippets of dialogue may go beyond polite conversation but do not go beyond common everyday expressions.

2. Plagiarism and violation of copyright will not be tolerated. You may save pictures for personal use (looking at). If you wish to use art posted here for anything else, you MUST ask the artist's permission.

3. Collaborations are acceptable, please first make sure you have permission from the person you collaborated with.

4. Please don't post overly large works. If a piece of art is large (Over 500 pixels wide or 750 pixels tall or over 700kb in size), please make a thumbnail or text link to the larger version. If a piece of writing is long (Over 1500 words), please post an offsite link.

5. If you have more than one piece to submit at any one time, try to put them all in one thread, rather than having three different threads for three different pieces. The exception to this rule is if you have art and writing. If you do not wish to post the art and writing in the same thread, you may make one thread for the art, and another for the writing.

6. If you are posting your own work, make a new thread for it, rather than posting it in another member's thread. It is rude to the member whose thread you are posting in.

7. If you are requesting art, or taking requests, they belong in PPT Art (Technical).

8. Don't beg for comments. It's rude. People will comment when they want too.

Strike Policy

These forums operate a system to dissuade members from abusing the forums and/or each other. Abuse can take many forms and some of us have had first hand experience of this.

The Moderators of this forum have been empowered with the ability to award 'strike' points to members who don't follow the Terms & Conditions of the forum and any other general etiquette expected when taking part in this Community.

Therefore, if members fail to heed the Terms & Conditions of the forum, as we have seen in the past, or ignore requests from Moderators, they can expect to be jumped on.

The Moderators do not have to tell you if you have been awarded a 'strike', but they will regularly report any abuse of the Forum to the Administrators who will take action against repeat offenders.

Incase you're wondering just what might await you if you don't abide by the Terms & Conditions, then there is a simple guide below.

One strike will bring your future actions under close scrutiny by the Moderating team.

Two strikes will interest the Administrators, who will then pay special attention to you, and not in a good way.

If you manage to get three strikes, then you will find yourself banned from the forum for a set amount of time. This amount of time will depend on what you have done to earn those strikes in the first place.

Each strike thereafter, up to a maximum of six strikes will get you banned, again for a certain length of time to be determined by the Administrator dealing with you. When you reach six strikes, you're history. No discussion, no argument. The Administrator's decision is final.

Serious offences against the Forum or other users will result in an immediate ban.

All strikes will be wiped at the end of every month, apart from those with six strikes who will be permanently banned from the forums. The reasons for the strikes being awarded will be kept on file for future reference.

The vast majority of members will never get a strike as they conduct themselves perfectly respectably on the forum. The odd double post or less than three word response is not going to get you a strike. You will get a polite reminder from the Mods that you may want to carefully consider for next time, but if you respond badly to that advice, then they are perfectly within their rights to award you with a strike because of it.

We understand that people who are new to the board may make mistakes without realising it, so minor offences for those that have been here for a week or less will also be given the benefit of the doubt.

Thanks for reading.
The PPT Moderator Team.

Since some people have noticed that the gallery is rather lacking in terms of serious art critique...

We won't require that you make all comments in such a format, but lots of artists here would probably appreciate it.
