STACY!! FERGIE!! FERGIE!! STACY!!!
Now that I have
your attention – Here, in as plain English as possible, is everything I could
think of regarding the tagboard. If English isn’t your first language, copy
this text and plug it into http://world.altavista.com/
to translate it into whatever language you can best understand.
1. No foul language. Swearing,
cursing, cussing, whatever you want to call it. This also includes sexually
charged slang words. Kids Inc. was a
children’s show, and many people allow their children to view the site.
2. Treat each other with respect. Don’t make
negative remarks about a poster’s Kids Inc. preferences, physical appearance,
weight, race, gender, sexual preference, or religious beliefs. This also applies to anyone who starred or
guest starred on the show. If you don’t
want it said to you, don’t say it. Anybody personally attacking another poster
will be IP banned.
As an additional note, I would
also like to add that harassing me isn't going to get you unbanned from my
site. In fact, it will have the opposite effect. Also, Aris has no jurisdiction
over my website, so he can't and won't "make" me lift the ban,
either.
3. Be courteous. Keep rule #2 in
mind when you post, and most importantly – if you see other people disregarding
the rules, JUST LET IT BE! The reason
this board is so screwed up is because one person disregards the rules, then
another person calls them on it, then ANOTHER person scolds that person for
yelling at the first one…and it’s a mess.
There are only two people that can moderate the tagboard, and they are
Aris and I. If we are busy filling
everyone’s requests, how can we have time to delete inappropriate messages?
Allow me to point out that IP addresses are recorded every time you tag the
board, so people abusing it will be dealt with no matter what they put in the
Name field each time. What’s an IP address?
Lead by example, and just ignore people trying to start long-winded discussions
or asking for episodes again and again.
4. No RUMORS of any sort regarding KIDS Incorporated
stars. You can not always believe everything you
hear, even if you hear it from 3 or 4 different people. It’s incredibly easy to lie on the Internet
and pretend to be someone you’re not.
Stars that are still in the business usually have official websites
and/or fan club newsletters where they make any announcements or post
news. Sites such as Wikipedia, TV.com,
and imdb can be edited by anyone who registers there, and are not 100%
legit. It’s also very hurtful to see
people saying things about you that may or may not be true. The cast members
are people, too.
5. Do not sell episodes. Please do not
advertise for selling videos on this site as this is an illegal practice. You do not own the show,
therefore you do not own the right to sell it for profit. You can, however, trade episodes as long as no
monetary exchange has occurred. Please
do it behind the scenes or somewhere else like Ebay,
I have been notified by MGM in the past due to them seeing people selling
episodes on my old sites and it’s a bad reflection of me, even though we don’t
practice it here. So please do not do
that, you will be banned or need moderator approval to have your posts appear
from now on.
6. No REQUESTS of videos and MP3’s. The
tagboard only holds roughly 40 posts.
After that, whenever someone posts a new message, an old message gets
erased from the list. That’s erased as
in gone. If you leave a request for a Stacy video and
no one gets the chance to read it, then naturally, it’s not going to be
posted. An email, on the other hand, is
permanent. Plus, you can be assured that
it goes directly to the right person.
You can also post a message in the forum and that will also be
permanent. Requests made to the tagboard
aren’t going to be addressed, and it’s not because people are mean, or “meen”
or don’t like you and don’t want you to have videos. Also see the FAQ for more reasons why all
the episodes can’t be posted every single day.
7. If you want to start a
conversation, please do so in the Forums. Tagboard
messages can only be 200 characters long.
Letters, numbers, and punctuation marks are all characters. Emoticons (those little smileys) also use up
several characters. 200 characters is roughly 30 words.
In order to have an actual discussion, you would need to post multiple
times, and again, this will knock other people’s posts off the board. You can post much longer messages in the
forum, and they will be permanent. Most
people don’t actually scroll all the way through the tagboard to see who’s
posting what. Once you register for the
forum, it will notify you of new posts since your last visit, so you won’t miss
anything.
I hope this clears
up any confusion as to how to use the tagboard.
Shoot, it’s only 1 page instead of 10…
