My goal for every rule is to be clear, distinct, and brief. I want as few as possible.
Post comments below. Please check and pick my grammar, brevity, and clarity.
It's difficult writing rules that apply to many boards at once, because they are only visible in their specific boards. Anything that applies to more than one board should, basically, be common sense.
a. Global Rules
b. Lolcow Boards ("Chris" and "Lolcow" Categories)
c. Chris Updates
d. Chris Discussion
e. Sonichu
f. Lolcow General
k. Off-Topic & The Chatbox
l. Deep Thoughts

It's difficult writing rules that apply to many boards at once, because they are only visible in their specific boards. Anything that applies to more than one board should, basically, be common sense.
a. Global Rules
- Have common courtesy. Do not directly attack other users. We're all friends here; be nice.
- Handle problems like an adult. Personal matters involving others (including staff) should be handled privately. Post in the Talk to Staff board, use conversations, or email us at admins@cwckiforums.com
- Don't post if you have nothing to say. Don't post for the sake of being noticed. In discussion boards, please avoid a one liner / image / video reply that is just a joke. Further the conversation in some way.
- Don't gimmick post. No recently created accounts should take on a persona when posting.
- Don't sockpuppet. Creating secondary accounts is not allowed. If you decide to use alternate accounts to circumvent board restrictions or to be manipulative, you will be banned across all accounts. See: handling problems like an adult.
- Do not plea for sympathy. Do not make posts about how you are leaving the forums. Just leave.
b. Lolcow Boards ("Chris" and "Lolcow" Categories)
- Be civil. Don't aggressively attack and insult the people or groups we talk about. Don't get emotionally charged over things that do not matter. If you need to tell people you're better than someone, you're probably not.
- No trolling plans. Don't use this forum as a place to organize trolling efforts. We cannot control your behavior off-site, but expect to be banned and ridiculed if you do something embarrassing.
- Be legal. Avoid directly posting private information. Do not break the law trying to screw with people.
- Write descriptive topic titles. [[ This rule applies to all Lolcow boards, but the description text is different for each. ]]
c. Chris Updates
- Posts in this forum are moderated. This is for quality. All posts made here should be to point out something that everyone would find interesting, or that is very important. Posts are approved on a case-by-case basis, at a moderator's approval.
- Only staff may post threads in this board. If you notice something before we do, post in Discussion and an update thread will soon be created.
d. Chris Discussion
- Write descriptive topic titles. "[Sep-5-2014] Facebook post about Sonichu" is better than "new update".
- Limit discussion of body parts and functions. Chris is gross. Discussing his incontinence in detail is unnecessary and disturbing.
- Chris doesn't read your posts. Stop trying to directly, or indirectly, chastise Chris through your posts. He does not care about what you have to say, and these posts are boring.
- Don't post random articles. Unless the subject matter is directly related to Chris and his history, please do not post articles with a loose affiliation. Off-Topic is where that belongs.
- Don't roleplay in your posts. Don't write pretend dialog between people, such as Chris and his mother.
e. Sonichu
- This board is is only for discussion of Sonichu and related fan creations.
f. Lolcow General
- Lolcows are bizarre people/groups/events, that are on the Internet, and respond negatively to people in a funny way. They are not countries, political figures, celebrities, your highschool bully, or some random YouTuber that isn't a drama queen.
- Write descriptive topic titles. "Hunger Mythos" is better than "Girl that thinks she's a corgi". Keep them as brief as possible.
- Do not create topics about forum members. This extends to all existing and former members of the forum that were first discovered by their presence here. If you think they deserve one, ask staff first.
- This board is only for discussing Jay and his life, activity, creations, and world.
- Make a new thread for each update.
- This board is only for discussing Gabe Navarro and his life, activity, creations, and world.
- Make a new thread for each update.
- Don't try to give Moleman advice when he visits. It's hopeless and clutters the discussion.
- This main forum is for discussing ParkourDude91 updates and livestreams.
- Don't ramble about military tech or terminology. Nobody cares about the difference between a clip and a mag. Nobody wants to hear the specifics about the impracticality of dual-wielding two 50 caliber handguns.
- Make threads only for new events. Keep off-topic and general discussion in Side-Ops.
- Any discussion of ParkourDude91 (and his friends) that verges on being off-topic or speculation should be posted here.
k. Off-Topic & The Chatbox
- Spoiler adult content. Anything you wouldn't want your boss to see on your monitor should be hidden. Don't embed NSFW content in chat directly.
l. Deep Thoughts
- This forum is for deep thoughts and more serious discussion. Please be mindful when challenging someone's opinions and beliefs.
