General Rules
All of these rules apply to the entire forum (unless otherwise stated). "Open forum" includes the areas that are open to all guests. You can view a list of all open and closed forums here.
Inappropriate Discussion
We do not allow any of the following to be posted unless otherwise stated.
Illegal Activities
Strong Violence (i.e., pictures of blood, going into detail about violent acts, etc)
Sexual Content/Nudity - Please note that this also applies to in-game images, regardless of intent. Showing some skin is fine as long as private areas are fully covered.
Age-restricted activities (i.e., drinking, gambling, smoking, etc)
Language meaning any of the above
References to any of the above
Pornography - This results in an instant and indefinite permanent ban. This will also result in an indefinite permanent ban in-game.
Inappropriate Language
Usage of profanity will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
Note that the word "crap" is allowed and "Hell" is allowed only when used in references to the location.
Personal Information
As with all online communities, there is a risk of criminals using specific information as a tool in harming you. We strive to keep you safe with all dealings.
We do not accept the following to be posted anywhere on Dream Disney MCPE Forums:
Any information that could be used to track your location. We will allow up to state/province level to be posted, but anything more specific (such as districts, cities, addresses, landmarks, etc) will be edited.
Passwords
Last names
Pictures detailing any of the above
Please report any instances of solicitations for account information/phishing to an Administrator. These are punishable by a permanent ban.
Non-English Languages
We allow thread titles, greetings, proper nouns, idioms, and other common phrases that are non-English to be posted on the forum. If you are unsure whether what you would like to post would be allowed, PM a Staff Member. Entire conversations in non-English are not allowed unless a proper translation is provided.
Off-Topic Discussion
When a thread is created for a specific topic, we expect posts in said thread to be in response to the original post or another post within the thread. We don't mind if a thread is steered in a different direction, but otherwise, it is against site rules.
Outside Links
Outside links are permitted as long as the link does not directly lead to a website or page detailing sexual content, regardless of format.
Please click on links at your own discretion as we are not liable for what other websites may contain.
Advertising
Unsolicited posts or private messages are not allowed.
Advertising some sort of product for personal gain or an outside link may result in a suspension. Advertising for personal gain with regards to money will result in a permanent ban.
Keep in mind that any additional accounts created for the sole purpose of advertising will earn a permanent ban.
Spamming
Posts with excessive smiley/image/text usage tend to cause some users lag and technical errors. This rule is in place as a courtesy to those users.
Posting the same message in multiple threads, profiles, or forums is not permitted. The only exceptions to this rule are birthday, holiday, and welcome messages.
In some cases, sending the same PM to more than one person can also be deemed as spamming.
Signature Limits
Signatures are limited to the following:
All images combined cannot exceed 600 (width) x 200 (height) pixels.
Image file size totals cannot exceed 2mb.
No more than 10 lines of text.
No more than 4 images.
Font size for text must be no more than the forum's size "3."
Images that flash quickly are prohibited.
We hold the right to remove an individual's ability to edit their signature.
Trolling
Trolling is posting for the purpose of provoking a negative reaction from another.
Responding to any trollish posts may only further hostilities and adding to it will result in disciplinary action taken against your account.
Correcting another member's spelling, grammar, or punctuation anywhere other than reputation will be considered a form of trolling. Not everyone on Dream Disney MCPE Forums is fluent in English, so please remember to be considerate.
Situations with trolling will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis.
Flaming
Flaming is the hostile interaction between users. Posts targeting, threatening, exerting, or meant to harass, offend, anger, or insult a user will not be tolerated under any circumstances.
Threatening physical harm against a user will incur a permanent ban.
Keep in mind that discipline for this rule is subject to the severity of the post in question.
Discrimination
Negatively referencing to someone's race, religion, culture, background, language skills, sexual orientation, physical traits, or other personally identifying traits is strictly prohibited. Severe cases of discrimination will result in a permanent ban that will take place immediately.
Cyber-Bullying & Cyber-Stalking
Neither cyber-bullying nor cyber-stalking will not be tolerated under any circumstances. These forums are not to be used as a medium for gathering information to aid in cyber-bullying or cyber-stalking elsewhere.
Hacker Discussion
Encouraging hacking is prohibited. You are not to discuss specifics about a hack's name, method, or results.
Impersonating Another User
Creating an account that is very similar to another user is not allowed. Impersonating a staff member will result in a suspension, as will claiming to be a staff member.
Back-Seat Moderating
It is a Moderator's job to moderate the forum, not your own. If you see a post that violates a site rule, please report it. Telling another user that they are breaking a rule is not permitted.
