FAQs and Rules
» Rules:
Basically there are only three rules:oo1. First thing's first, please respect everyone involved with the community. There is absolutely no need for bashing, flaming, or treating anyone else with disrespect. This community thrives on the difference of opinions of it's members and friendly debate. Anything else will not be tolerated.
oo2. For those of you who are reviewers, when filling out the movie review forms [which can be found here] try your best to make your review honest, fair and legible. Everyone makes typos and forgets correct grammar from time to time, but I expect you to at least attempt a well-written review.
This means no TyPiNg LiKe DiS, or abuse of internet shorthand [OMGZ liek the main char. wuz so hawt!!11].
oo3. If you have applied to be a member, and have been recently approved: please immediately read the Welcome Post before you do anything else. It explains the community, the member's roles and may answer any questions you may have regarding how everything works.
