<orange>Yeah, good idea by someone: put a rules page on the the [GSF] site. Make sense. Let's all put them here so they're at least a bit documented and then we can put them on the site at a later stage.</orange>

<orange>Okay, thanks for all the info so far. I skipped the initiate stuff, since it's a bit different these days and it's pretty much documented every month in the initiate thread.

List (in no particular order):
# One must not spam without just cause
# One must not flame without just cause
# One must vote for initiates when needed (I like this one, since voting is pathetic)
# One must try and get along with other members
# Banned from /gamespy means kick from [GSF]
# Any member can put themself and another member up for revote as a method of resolving disputes. This was really meant to be used as a last resort in big problems.

Discuss them as needed, some might go away again (like ths pamming/flaming. perhaps that should be a general rule or perhaps it's a forum rule or something).</orange>

Just for reference:

The web archive shows the first real clan website which Alt-Key designed, it has some rules there.

The bottom of the FAQ's page on the subsequent site has a more concise collection.

I'd imagine a search through the ForumPlanet archives would show some discussion on rules and such.

There's the banned from /gamespy, kicked from the clan rule.

I don't know if it's a rule but any member can put themself and another member up for revote as a method of resolving disputes. This was really meant to be used as a last resort in big problems.

More as I think of them.

ADDED:

I've also been thinking about updating the rules for these forums in a manner similar to shai's separate forum with a topic or two. Any thoughts on this would be helpful.
