6 - Please do not reply to threads that break any of the rules, please leave them for staff to deal with. There's no need for staff to act as mods. If you have a concern, PM one of the staff or click on the "Report post to Mara or Squall" link on the post itself to send an automatic PM.
7 - Do not post anything that would be more suited to another board. Make sure the threads you post belong in the board you're in.

If it just says "Look!" no one will look.

13 - Pay attention to the extra rules for individual boards listed as sticky threads, for example: Hyperspace and Artisans' Quarters.
14 - Lastly, have fun!
