The The Midnight Post forum has no forum rules. Doesn't that mean that you can spam in there?

No. Just because the topic's not there doesn't mean the rules don't apply, it just means Patrick forgot to link to the thread there as well.

OK, but if we are not informed of the forum rules existing on that forum then anyone could spam and have the excuse of MS not showing the rules in that forum.

That's called common sense. Unless you're purposefully trying to get banned or don't understand the rules, it's pretty obvious that you're supposed to follow them in all the board sections.

I'm not, but others might, and you can't ban them because they couldn't have known that they broke the rules, because the rules aren't shown.

Obviously they would have known, because the rules apply to the whole forum. :V

In every place except The Midnight Post. Those rules are for the entire forum, not just that place. Don't ask me why he didn't put it on the main page.

To Marinus, who was my community older brother.

May these lost Wonderlanders find true adventure beyond us.

OK, thanks. Patrick should still have it in that forum if he has it in all the other forums.

phpBB2 has no global sticky/notice system like most of the other forum system does, so Patrick had to post it in every forum. Maybe he missed out MP forum, but who cares.

It's called common sense to follow the rules in all sections. Sadly, I have none.

Some people may not follow the rules though (example: everyone (I think) that has been banned).

Then they'll get banned for not having common sense.

You know, the stronger Doctor Paradox gets, the more likely it is for Paradox Penny to unleash her wrath. Paradox Penny came first, and has a whole planet of Paradoxes. You do the math.

But you only get banned when breaking the rules, so would banning that user when he or she didn't break the rules be breaking the rules?

Then he'll just unleash HIS Corrupted Paradox Fusion Beam.
Paradox Penny + Doctor Paradox + Evil Corruption + Paradoxes + The Day of The PARADOX ECLIPSE = Corrupt Doctor Giga Paradox Quarter = WIN.

ORLY???

Well then she'll revive herself even though she's defeated/get revived even though she's dead and not defeated and shoot the Corrupt Doctor Giga Paradox Quarter with a machine gun even though the Paradox Gun isn't a machine gun and defeat it in one hit even though it takes OVER 9000 hits to defeat. Repeating that if she needs to, even though she can only do a chain of paradoxes that big once. (Enter that in the creativity contest please. :) )

Corrupt Doctor Giga Paradox Quarter can commit suicide!? What a waste of Corrupt Data's money.

That has nothing to do with the article being missing - that's got to do with them willfully disregarding the rules.

If they didn't notice them, then yes, it was accidental.

Anyway, you can't just enter rules down the "discussion board" with "a place to meet and discuss all things wonderland!", because there wouldnt be enough room for those words.
If you can look at my avatar for 19 minutes, without closing your eyes, you must be great.

You could have went to the The Midnight Post forum first, or lied about coming to it first, then you could spam and MS couldn't blame therefore ban that user.
