"Personal Information" - This site has children present therefore asking for or volunteering personal information is not allowed. Personal Info consists of Real Life Names, Age, Gender, Location, Email Address exchanges, Instant messenger ID's, Password/Account Information, School Information and other similar details. This also applies to posting personal pictures of the users, their schools, homes (that include their exact locations), etc.
This applies to all forums, threads, posts, private messages, userpages, profiles, avatars and signatures. We here at Toontowncentral.com and VMKForums.com strive to keep the environment as safe as possible for our users.
This includes sites like *******, Xanga.com, or any type of social sites that allow personal information or inappropriate material that does not fall under the G-rating rules of this site. Any site that is not officially approved by the ToonTownCentral Staff is not allowed to be advertised on ToonTownCentral.com.
Profiles may be checked for content periodically & if deemed inappropriate will be removed and will be dealt with on a case by case basis.

This is what we call naming names flaming. Most of the time is hearsay and since several toons can look and be named the samething, it can cause a lot of confussion. Instead, we have a no naming names policy to protect innocent toons.
"Flaming" - Any posts that are hateful or mean in nature will be removed immediately. We do not tolerate attacks based on race, religion, gender, s**ual orientation, or political affiliation or any posts indicating grieving other users on the forums or in game by purposefully causing them to go sad because of their laugh limit, gag limit, age, etc.. No personal threats or harassment. This includes posting pictures representing an attack. Debate opinions and not the people behind them. This also applies to all forums, threads, posts, private messages, userpages, profiles, avatars and signatures.
"Naming Names" - This falls under "Flaming". Naming people or their characters in negative light is not permitted. That person is not able to defend themselves or their actions and what seems like an inappropriate action, which can often be a simple misunderstanding, can lead to a negative reaction against that toon (avoidance, revenge). If someone griefs you in the game, report it to ToontownStaff . If someone griefs you on this site, PM an admin or moderator or report their posts. Most threads are archived after 6 months. If you should bump up a thread that is old, as long as the topic is still valid, that's fine. To do so to a very old and outdated topic, we often delete the new post and close the thread. This really isn't grounds to warning/suspend any user over. It's more of an annoyance than real violation of our policies. |
