Club Penguin Town Rules
Hello there Guest. You are now viewing the official rules of Club Penguin Planet. You must follow these rules at all times or there will be consequences. It is important you read these carefully.
1. No spamming.
Spam is the act of posting messages that are not needed. Here is a useful acronym that will help you out if you are new to the term:
S tupid
P ointless
A nnoying
M essages
Note that I said the word “messages”. This could mean one word, or even a phrase/sentence. If the message does not benefit the topic in any way, please do not post it by itself. Feel free to post a “spam phrase” with something else as long as it sticks to the topic and it makes sense.
There are different types of spam rules we have here at CPT. Here are three more than must be followed too.
• Stay on topic.
This kind of ties with the spam rule, but basically this is self explanatory. For example, if you posted in a topic called “Dogs”, you must incorporate something about dogs in your post, not about the peanut butter sandwich you ate two years ago. Now, you can talk about that sandwich as long as it incorporates dogs in the story.
• No double posting.
Double posting means you may not post right after a post you just made in a specific thread (a thread is the same as a topic). You must wait for someone else to reply before you can make another post.
• No word posts.
Word posts are posts that are one word long. If your post is less than the minimum of two words, please make it longer. No excuses.
• No Bumping.
Bumping is when you post on a topic that is old. If you post in a topic that is older than a month, you will be warned or infracted depending on how many rules you have broken in the past.
• NO POINTLESS POSTS.
Even though this was covered in the SPAM acronym, this is a rule we will enforce much more. If the post does not benefit the topic in any way, please do not post it! An example of a pointless post is this.
User 1: Someone, please enlarge this picture for me. Thanks!
User 2: Sorry, I don't know how.
If any of us staff see that, you will be given a warning and infracted for every time after.
2. No advertising.
Advertising is the act of promoting another website through CPT in this case. If you randomly post links to other sites that are not either (1) a search engine, such as Yahoo and Google, or (2) Youtube, that is considered advertising. However, you may advertise in your signature, which appears at the bottom of each of your posts, which is separated from a post by a horizontal line.
3. No flaming.
Flaming is the act of expressing a feeling of dislike. Online, flaming is expressed through using ALL CAPITAL LETTERS or using too many exclamation marks. Please be careful about what you say because you will be penalized if you flame. Being disrespectful to users is a form of flaming. So, please be respectful to all users, new and old. This rule applies to posts, PMs, and both chatrooms.
4. No inappropriate content/pictures.
Do not link to any site or have a picture that contains adult content, sexually oriented material or might otherwise be considered offensive.
5. No bribing/asking for a position in the staff.
If you bribe or ask for a position in the staff, you will (1) get an infraction(s) and (2) convince us not to consider you for a moderator/administrator.
6. On-the-Spot Rules.
The staff has the right to make rules on the spot if need be. They do not need to specifically be in these rules. Also, the administrators will be making sure that moderators and other administrators do not make rules that are unfair. If they do, they will be penalized for their actions.
7. Club Penguin Town Uses Images from Club Penguin
Club Penguin images, text, ideas, etc.
(c) 2005-2010 Club Penguin Interactive, Disney, and New Horizon
Interactive.
Club Penguin Town doesn't and will never claim that the artwork that is being used is made by them, but we always say that we took them from Club Penguin.
8. Hacking
Please no talking about hacking. No Club Penguin hacking discussion and no Club Penguin Planet hacking discussion any hack threats will result in a ban.
9. Illegal Content
Distribution of warez, cracks, serials or illegally obtained copyrighted content is not allowed on this forum. This means no giving links to music files, video files, and other stuff that is not legally yours.
10. Multiple Accounts
On this forum, you can have one account and no more. There is no reason that you should have to create more than one account. If you forget your password, there is a way to retrieve it through your e-mail. If you are caught using more than one account, you will be banned from the forum. If you have a brother or sister on the forum, please notify us so we know you are not double accounting.
11. Sharing Accounts
You are not allowed to share an account with another user even if that other user is banned or not.
12. Plagiarism
We do not allow you to plagiarize on this forum. Only share what is yours. You will be infracted or warned for posting something that is not yours.
13. Signature And Avatar Limits
If you avatar or signature is too big, we will pm you asking you to resize it. If you refuse to, we will delete it. It is recommended you do the removal because you will be able to take out what you do not like in your signature.
14. No Cussing/Swear Words
Swearing and cussing is not aloud on this forum. Using inappropriate language will result in an infraction.
15. Private Messaging/IM's Permission
You may not post a private message unless you have permission from the user.
You may send it to one of the Staff members if necessary.
As for IM's, you may not post any chat history without permission from the user(s)/Staff.
If any of the above rules are broken, you will receive what are called infractions. Infractions are “warnings” that tell you that you are closer to being banned from a set time from the forums. Before you start getting infractions, you will receive warnings through PM (Private Message) telling you what rule you are breaking. After a few warnings, you will start receiving infractions. Once you get 5 infractions, you will be banned from the forum. Your ban can be only a few days or forever depending on what rules you broke. If you are banned for only a period of time, when you are unbanned you will only have one chance meaning the next rule you break will get you banned again.
It may look like there are a lot of rules but they are all very important. It is not hard to follow them. So many users here are able to follow these rules easier. If you have any questions about the rules, do not be afraid to ask about them.
Thank you for reading the rules and have a great time at Club Penguin Town!
