PokéForce Rules
Rules
Please familiarize yourself with the forum rules before you start posting
1. Treat all members with kindness, respect, and consideration. Harassment, hostility, or behaviour that creates an unwelcoming atmosphere will not be tolerated.
2. Please use the appropriate forum sections for your discussions and content. Be sure to adhere to any section-specific rules, which can be found in the pinned posts within each section.
3. Do not attempt to bypass language filters by using alternative words that convey insulting meanings.
4. Please heed the guidance of the staff team. If they ask you to stop or change the topic of discussion, it indicates the conversation may be heading in the wrong direction and could potentially lead to conflicts.
We reserve the right to impose penalties at our discretion, even for problematic behavior not explicitly outlined in the rules or content guidelines.

Accumulation of points as a result of rule violations may lead to warnings, temporary and permanent suspensions.
