The rules & regulations for this forum section are as follows:

View Post~.Darkness.~, on Mar 17 2009, 03:47 PM, said:

Here's the deal people. We give you a place to tear each other up, in return you give us CLEAN, PG 13 POSTS! Since, this is a debate forum, DEBATE. Don't post "oh I hate herrr" and that's it, give a REASON.

Rules:

1. No cussing each other out aka no personal attacks!!
Ex: You like her because you're ugly yourself! You're such a bitchh!!! I don't talk to ugly people!

2. No cussing out the stars!! Hate them all you want, but keep it PG-13!
Ex: She looks like a whore! She is such a slut etc etc.

3. Fans, do NOT go in to the anti-club topics. If you go in them and then get offended, that is not our responsibility! If you start to defend the respective actor, we will take action against you since it's a hate/criticism club. Same respect goes to these anti-clubs as they go to fan clubs! We highly advise against going in them, and also highly advise against whining to us about it.

Last of all, if there is any rule-breaking, just REPORT (you know that cute little button? yeah, click it!).

Topics you can make:

Actress vs. Actress
Actor vs. Actor
Polls between actors/actresses
Anti-Clubs

Topic you CANNOT make:

Discuss: Why "actor/actress" is ugly?"
Why his or hers boyfriend left her?
Why is she such a bitch?

Last of all, keep the debates to that forum ONLY. Do not drag it all over the board, following, and stalking the member. This is made to decrease insanity in BW Zone, not to increase it everywhere else!! AKA "What stays in BW Debate, stays in BW debate!" Capiche?

For now, it's an open password, but for future references, we WILL change the password frequently, thus verifying your posts and seeing who should be allowed in. If your posts are unsatisfactory, you will not be given any future passwords. Members are asked to not share passwords with anyone, or else, anyone who shared the password will be officially warned.

How to get future passwords?

Simple. PM either a Moderator or a Administrator for the password :)

Got all that? :P Ready to debate?

Current Password:
ilovekareena

The reason behind the password? Well, because I love to torture you all, and would love to see you guys type it in :D

Have fun! ^_^


Please keep checking back into this topic if you've forgotten the rules or for future updates to this forum section.

If you would like to discuss these rules or would like to make suggestions,

Staff Warning:

Everyone, please remember Rule No. 1: NO Personal Attacks against the members of this forum.

This section was created for mature debates.
Not as a place to go all out hating celebrities without any rhyme or reason, or more importantly, attacking other members if they don't agree with your point of view.

Also, do not drag celebrities that members (that you're 'debating' with) may be fans of into topics that are irrelevant.
EX: "No wonder people like Celeb X, that's because they like Celeb Y" or "They like Celeb X because they hate Celeb Y" or etc.
Unless you have a very valid reason for doing so, do not do so. By valid reason, we mean... explain why that might be the case, with specific examples & without bringing certain fans or groups of particular fans into it. And in the end, keep in mind... it is only your opinion so do not state it as a fact or insist upon it if others don't agree.

I don't care how you 'excuse' yourself with it...
if you're found attacking other members of this forum, please remember the warning that an admin issued recently in one of the topics:

Quote

So, anymore instigating comments by any member shall be deleted and the member will be banned for a week.


If you find your post deleted:
Do not ask why your comment was deleted, especially if it involved comments regarding another BS member. If a staff member deems it inappropriate/against the forum rules, it will be deleted without any warning. Inquire about your post only if you're absolutely convinced that you did not do anything wrong.

[Many of the other staff members have issued similar warnings in various topics.]


Also, a small suggestion for everyone:

Please do not take the topics in this forum so seriously. This is just a place for people to voice their various opinions (opinions that may not always be in favor of someone or something - ex: a movie). Just state your opinions and if you disagree, then just say so and explain why.

Please don't take anything said here personally or make personal and instigating comments against anyone else. After all, it's just what some people think (regardless of whether they agree with you or not) on a public forum and it won't necessarily "change" anything concrete about the topic/celebrity you're discussing. It certainly won't affect your fav celebs or whatever on a personal scale. So why waste your time or stress yourself out about it trying to get a couple of people to change their minds?

Keep it an enjoyable and open-minded atmosphere, please! ^_^

Debate Forum is being cleaned. Translation: Sara's on a warning spree.

Before asking why you've been warned, go through the posts in this topic and you'll find your answer.

My official pet peeve: If you have made your point about how you hate an actress/actor/movie etc, stop saying those points over and over. Find some other new points to debate about. ^_^
