Rules

~ Welcome aboard ~





 Welcome to the Sonamy Revolution (SAR)~! We are one of the friendliest communities around and we would like to thank you all for reading this and hope you can join forums and stay active!

Our current members and staff here at SAR follow these rules and we hope that you will do the same. Just like other forums, we expect you to use proper grammar, common sense, and good behavior. When registering, you must agree with the Terms of Service.

The Terms of Service is shown on the first page of the registering process. If you break a certain rule here, the SAR staff have the right to quote the rule that you have broken and warn you.

Sonamy Revolution has set up a validation system so bots cannot register and create spam. When registering you must put in a valid e-mail address that you can access. Otherwise, the registration will fail.


~ Warn System ~

A warn system is implemented at SAR. You can have a maximum of 5 warnings before you can get banned. You can get your warnings lowered if the SAR staff sees an improvement with your behavior.

1st warning (20%) = No action taken, verbal warning.
2nd warning (40%) = No action taken, verbal warning.
3rd warning (60%) = Two day suspension, then under moderation.*
4th warning (80%) = Two week suspension, still under moderation.*
5th warning (100%) = Banned from SAR.

*Moderation means your future posts and topics must be approved by a member of staff before they are shown to the public.

Once you've reached your 5th warning and you have been banned, do not attempt to register for the forum again. You may view the forum as a guest and view our main website to see what's going on but do not try to sign up another account. If necessary, you will be IP-banned.

If you think you have changed and your behavior has been improved, e-mail staff@sonamyrev.net. The staff will convene and decide whether you are allowed to return or not.

~ About the Staff ~

Sonamy Revolution hires well-behaved and high-potential staff that gets along well and works hard with one another to keep Sonamy Revolution running and under control. However, if you to be a member of staff, do not ask to become one. The current SAR staff will pick who becomes a member of staff and who does not. You will be picked as a member of staff if the current staff thinks that you are capable of becomimg one. Keep in mind that admins/mods are not better people then you are. If they begin to break the rules, they can be warned to and, if possible, removed from their position on the staff.

RESPECT THE STAFF at all times. Even if they start to get you mad. You don't want to make things worse for yourself.

If you have any questions about SAR, ask a member of staff. If the matter is serious and you want a quicker response, ask an admin as they come here to help us everyday.
