Welcome to the Pokémon Anime Rules and Guidelines thread. The following are rules which should be followed or else you may receive a warning or infraction. In the next post, there are guidelines which we will not infract for, but we would appreciate if followed. If you have any questions about the rules or guidelines, feel free to contact any Pokémon Anime moderator.
The rules for the main Pokémon Anime section are:
1. Insulting users for their opinions (Flaming and Baiting and/or thread bans; Abuse and Harassment and/or a forum ban)
The Anime forum takes a strong stance against flaming those who you disagree with; disagree with someone by arguing in the context of the show and not about the user themselves.
We also ask that you refrain from personal attacks directed at any of the staff who work on the anime (writers, animators, etc.) - all criticisms should be focused upon the work itself, not the people.
2. Constant offtopic criticism of characters (Flaming and Baiting and/or thread bans; Abuse and Harassment and/or a forum ban)
Going into several threads just to criticise a character is excessive and unnecessary, and only serves to annoy other users. Stick to that character's thread in the Pokémon League.
3. Capture speculation with no evidence (Pointless Post)
Posting speculation about a capture of a Pokémon in a preview thread without evidence to suggest such capture (such as a scan or preview that hints at a capture, such as bonding) is not allowed. Instead, please take this discussion to the Pokémon Evolution/Capture/Release Thread.
4. Petitions (Advertising)
Please do not create threads or posts to advertise petitions in the forums. Signatures and blogs can be used for this purpose instead.
5. Unofficial versions of the Pokémon Anime (Copyright Violation)
The Anime forum is a place to discuss all official versions of the Pokémon Anime and not fandubs or other fan edits. This includes posting or asking where to find fandubs or edits.
6. Spoilers in dub review threads (Pointless Post)
When posting in the review thread for a dub episode, please keep all spoilers about future episodes (which have not yet aired in the English language dub) in spoiler tags. This is only fair to those users who prefer to primarily follow the dub and wish to discuss the latest episodes without having future events spoiled.
