Club Penguin Wiki:Policy/Forum Guidelines

The forum is another method of communication on the wiki after IRC. There are some guidelines that all users should follow on the forum.

Posts and threads

All threads created should fall under the appropriate category or subcategory (e.g. "Club Penguin Discussion"). This is to keep the forum organized. Threads being misplaced will be moved, and the user who created the thread will be warned. Continuing to misplace threads will result in the the removal in the right to create threads.

Posts should be relevant to what the thread is about. If it's completely off topic, it may be taken as spam, and as a result, it will be deleted. Any threads or posts that appear to be intentional spamming will result in the thread being deleted and the user blocked (whether it's forum only or both wiki and forum is up to the admin that performs the block).

Remember to be careful about what you post, because all other wiki policies apply in the forum as well.

Post signatures

In forums, users can choose to sign their posts with a signature. Usually, they are an image along with some quote or a few words. The forum signatures will follow a different policy than the wiki signatures. The wiki will allow any type of signature to be used as long as it is within reasonable length. If it is an image or both text and image, try to keep it within 9 lines of text for height, and if you're using text, keep it to 10-15 words at most. We don't want to see paragraphs! If an administrator deems that your signature is too long or is inappropriate, you will be asked to change it.
