Properly Credit Uploaded Image / #chan Imageboard Reply Posts by Sunain - 12/10/07 @ 9:59PM PST#

Recently the number of improperly credited posts on the Imageboard has increased substantially. Two rules have been updated to address this issue. Please read and follow these updated rules as they will be enforced.

12. Credit images - If an image is from another website or is not your own work, post the URL and authors information as part of your initial comment. This will save people from asking about it at a later time and will give the authors the proper credit they deserve.

Posts must include:

13. Episode Picture Tagging - Post the episode number and episode title that the image is from as part of your initial comment. This will save people from asking about it at a later time.

#chan Imageboard Reply Posts
A new rule has been added to deal with #chan Imageboard related reply posts. While #PocketMonsters Imageboard uses a similar engine (Kusaba) to the #chan based Imageboard's, those types of posts are no longer allowed. "Sage", non-related posts, non-Pokemon posts, 'bump', and 'sauce' (source) are some of the #chan Imageboard related reply posts that have started to show up. These types of posts are annoying and lower the overall quality of the Imageboard. These types of posts will be deleted and users that consistently post them will be banned.

If you have any questions regarding these rule changes, you can visit our chat @ #pocketmonsters@irc.pocketmonsters.net or post on the forum thread located here
