Forum Guidelines

[Kathleen]

Hello Everyone!

I got some questions about what the forum guidelines are, and although we have a page regarding guidelines under the “Community” tab on the site, I thought it would be helpful to also have a pined post right here on the forum to make it more easily assessable.

This will also make it so that there is a place for people to ask any questions they have about the guidelines if they would like.

So! Here are the guidelines. These were made with the intention to help keep this forum uplifting, fun, and informative.

1. This is a forum founded on love. Love for Christ, and love for each other. We want the Kingdom Pen forum to be a place of encouragement, community, learning, and fun. Let us not quibble with each other. Disagreement over issues of politics, theology, etc. should not be a hindrance to peace or goodwill. Make sure discussions are always considerate, civil, and uplifting. Always treat others as Christ would treat them. Let us build each other up, and not tear down.

2. If you have a question, please ask it. This forum is meant to encourage learning.

3. Don’t be afraid to answer questions if you know the answer. We can all learn from each other.

4. Please stay on topic. If posting in a writing-related board, keep the subject matter on writing.

5. Spamming is strictly forbidden. Any clear violation will result in immediate expulsion from the site.

6. As ambassadors of Christ, no foul, harmful, or unedifying language or subject matter (vulgar, sexual, abusive, slanderous, etc.) will be tolerated in posts or communication between members.

7. Do not post any image or video which could be considered obscene or excessively gruesome. Only post that which you would be comfortable with a six-year-old viewing. Some examples of what we would consider a violation include anything heavily occult or otherwise expressing a strong and pervading sense of darkness, mutilated bodies, or any image that might be considered only half dressed.

8. Profile pictures should not be inappropriate.  Do not upload anything that is gruesome, revealing, appears undressed, or contains foul language or a strong and pervading sense of darkness.

9. This forum is for teens and young adults. Participants must be between the ages 13 – 30.

By creating an account on our site, you agree to follow these guidelines and uphold these standards at all times.

If the KP team sees a violation to these rules, they will issue a warning, bringing to remembrance the standards which were agreed to be upheld upon the creation of the account. A second offense will result in suspension from the forum for the period of a month. A third offense will result in permanent expulsion. The KP team reserves the right to permanently expel any member if they think they have made actions dangerous to the community.

 

We have moderators making sure these rules are adhered to, however if you see posts yourself that goes against these rules please let us know by emailing Kingdompenmag@gmail.com and we’ll see to the issue right away.

Thank you, and may you have a wonderful rest of your day!

Hi so how exactly do I start my own post?

Hello. K, so if you’re on the ‘recent topics’ page, click the ‘forums’ link above all the topic threads. That’ll take you to a new page. Near the top, right below the ‘general site info’, there’ll be a link that says ‘start here’. Click the link, and scroll to the bottom of the page. There should be a white box with a smaller one above it for the title of the thread. Fill them out and hit ‘submit’ when you’re done.

Hopefully that all made sense and is helpful. I’m really bad at explaining things 😛

Signature is limited to 100 characters? That seems awfully unjust. We refuse to be bound by these ru
