The Papanurgle Forum Rules


We ask that you conduct yourself in a manner that is respectful of others, flaming/trolling/insulting/harassing other people will not be tolerated.

The posting of (links to) pornography, links to illegal/free/pirated software, weapons and substances will result in being banned.

The explicit advertising of other websites is prohibited. You may however place a single link to another forum or suitable website in you signature.

You must not post specific points costs of individual units/weapons/wargear/upgrades etc as they appear in Games Workshop’s publications. It is assumed that members have the appropriate Codex/Army book, and can therefore look up the point costs. You may, however, post overall costs for a unit, like this:

Daemon Prince with Mark of Nurgle, wings and Nurgle’s Rot (165 pts.)

As stated in the welcome email/private message we ask that new members briefly introduce themselves in the Spawning Sewer before posting or creating new topics elsewhere. New members will find that their and topics require approval until they do so.


FAQ

Apparently, there is a donkey firmly lodged in my colon?

That means you’ve encountered one of our many word filters. Please note that the language used on this forum is English. That means NO "l33t sp33k" or other kinds of kids' lingo. Also, the occasional use of punctuation and capitalisation makes all the difference between "i helped my uncle jack off a horse" and "I helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse."

Forum members are expected to put *some* efforts in their posts to make them easy to read - the forum mods may delete posts that are considered too messy and unreadable.

Quote:
Should you wish to you have the option to turn the word filter off or on in your control panel. Navigate to Board preferences > Edit display options. Note that this will only effect your own posts.


What ranks are there?

Image Pus Bubble (2 posts)

Image Nurgling (25 posts)

Image Fly of Nurgle (100 posts)

Image Plaguebearer (250 posts)

ImageBeast of Nurgle (500 posts)

ImageHerald of Nurgle (777 posts)

Daemon Prince of Nurgle (1500 posts)

And a few more…

Rotten Rewards (cash) and the Shop
The forum has a cash mod installed. You earn a small amount of cash for each post, topic, poll etc. Also, you can earn Rotten Rewards by coming 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the Nurgle's Choice Awards, or as a part of any other competition we might run.

Note that the Rotten Rewards cash has replaced the 'prize points' system. All members who had prize points have been awarded cash ($10 per point).

The Shop is where you spend your Rotten Rewards. At present you can buy Blight Grenades, Custom Ranks and Helmet Crabs.
You can manage items you buy by going to the shop link in your user control panel.

Helmet Crabs (and any subsequent 'collectables' we release) can be displayed on your shelf, which appears beneath you signature.

It is also possible to donate Rotten Rewards you have to other forum members.

Reputation
Like many other forus we have a reputation system. Ideally you should award reputation for posts of a high quality. Awarding negative reputation is discouraged, but if you feel you must...

When awarding positive or negative reputation you can award between 1 and 7 points, and leave a brief message as to why and for what post you are giving/taking reputation.

You may 'rep' each member once every 24 hours.

Suffice to say, the reputation is open to abuse, which will not be tolerated.

You can give positive or negative reputation to other forum member once you reach the rank of Nurgling or, have recieved a reputation of 7 or more.

Quote:
Nurglings, please mote: At present there is a slight bug with the system... you need a Rep of 7, regardless of rank, before you can award rep yourself.


How do I get a cool unique rank like the mods have?
You can buy a custom rank by acquiring and spending in the relevant amount of Rotten Rewards.

What’s the NCA?
The Nurgle’s Choice Award (NCA) is a monthly scheme that rewards proactive posting of your models etc in the Corrupt Creations part of the forum. Each month the members of Papanurgle nominate and vote for the ‘best in show’ of all of that months posts.

Why was the post about my Blue-clad Twats moved?
Because this is a primarily Nurgle orientated forum all discussion of any GW related subject that does not refer in some way to our dear Father Nurgle belongs in the Bleach Bath. The mods will move misplaced topics that are deemed ‘nurgle-free’ to the Bleach Bath.

The Rank Image system has changed so the following should no longer be a problem, however I may have forgotten to move/change a few things...

Where did my Avatar go? Why's my name changed colour?
Because of the way ranks work at present (there are no associated rank images), each member of Papanurgle is placed into a group that matches their rank. Each group has an associated avatar and colour. The Group Avatars are default, so each time you progress up a rank and are moved to the corresponding group, your Avatar changes, along with your colour. This does mean that you'll have to re-upload your own avatar.

Given the multiple recent episodes of people putting up points values etc, I want you all to read the rules again!

Thank you.
