We want this to be a pretty relaxed place where people can just chill out with other club members. As long as you follow the rules, there won't be any problems.
1. Don't be annoying.
Don't flame, spam, WRITE IN ALL CAPS, and post legibly (no '1337 5P3AK' please).
2. Listen to Moderators/Administrators.
They're here for a reason
3. ABSOLUTELY NO links to illegal crap.
This includes, but is not limited to: isos, cracks, movies, warez, illegal torrents, modchips, and licensed MP3s.
4. NO NSFW/Porn posts outside of the Random boards.
The forums aren't hosted on NYU's servers, but they are linked on the Club website, which is. We are not 4chan. Mods and admins have final say on what is and is not appropriate.
The random board has its own rules. Read them.
5. Don't swear (too much).
There are no word censors at this time. We hope you can be mature and not start using profanity in every third word. A swear here or there is fine, but if it starts to get out of control we can, and will, enable censors.
6. Fansubbed anime/scanlated manga:
Feel free to link to a group page or torrent list. DO NOT link to torrent files/download links directly. I don't want VIZ or 4Kids to start sending our club C&D letters.
7. Let people know who you are.
Under Personal Text in your profile is the best place to put your name. This will help people know who everyone is on the forum and during meetings.
8. Don't make private topics (ie: Attn:John Smith).
If you post a topic it's so everyone can discuss what you're saying. Try not to make topics directed to one person. You can PM someone if you have something to say to them. Also try to keep the topics/posts mainly in English.
9. Don't invite all your friends and family to the forums.
The main purpose of these forums is so club members can get to know one another better outside of club. We're not going to make it exclusive to club members (at this time) but we'd rather it just be those who come to meetings at least sometimes.
In addition, the Anime and Random boards have additional rules. Read them.
Also, feel free to read up on the general rules of the internet. These aren't enforced rules and more of a joke, but relevant nonetheless.

Also all new members are encouraged to introduce themselves in our new member topic HERE.
Enjoy your stay!
