General Rules
* While debating and discussion are fine, we will not tolerate rudeness, profanity (or attempts to bypass profanity filters--e.g. POS, LMFAO, etc.), insulting posts, personal attacks or purposeless inflammatory posts. Unless you are addressing an utter idiot! Our decisions are final in these matters.
* Please refrain from posting meaningless threads, one-word (or short) nonsense posts and such.
* Multiple or repeated posting in order to increase your post count is not allowed.
* Advertising, spamming and trolling are not allowed. This includes using the forum, email, visitor messages, picture comments, and private message systems to spam other members.
* We also do not allow posts or links to sites that are sexual in nature or violate Crime and Capital Punishment community standards. The Administrator/Moderator team will be the sole arbitrator of what does and what does not violate community standards.
* Each member is allowed one login account. Registering with multiple accounts is not allowed.
* While we are quite happy to have constructive comparative conversations about other pro/anti websites, we will not tolerate blatant references or the sort of "ooh look, what so and so said on such and such website". Also, we would appreciate it if you would refrain from blatant bashing of other websites.
* We reserve the right to remove offensive posts without notice.
* Posts arguing about Crime and Capital Punishment policies are not allowed. Message an Administrator or Moderator with your grievance.
* Posts discussing moderator/administrator actions are also not allowed.
* Moreover, while these rules cover most common situations, they cannot anticipate everything. Consequently, we reserve the right to take any actions we deem appropriate to ensure these forums are not disrupted or abused in any way.
* You cannot post any affiliate or referral links, or post anything asking for a referral. Such posts will be subject to removal.
* You cannot post advertisements or notices for contests.
* All posts must be made in English!
* We also reserve the right to ban anyone who willfully violates the forum rules, as access to our forums is a privilege and not a right.
* It is not the policy of Crime and Capital Punishment to delete members' accounts or posts. If at any time a member decides to leave, their account will be deactivated, and the member's name will be changed to "Guest".
Avatars and Profile Pictures
* Members are encouraged to post avatars and profile photos, although members must refrain from posting images containing offensive gestures, and sexually explicit material. Examples: Kermit The Frog "flipping the bird", Monica Lewinsky's head bobbing up and down from behind a desk, and so on.
Signature Size Limits
All signatures should not exceed the following limits:
* You can't have both text and images in your signature.
* For text signatures: four lines normal size, eight lines small size and up to 90 characters per line. Font sizes above two are not allowed. (Blank lines count as lines).
* Do not use images with large text to bypass the previous rule.
* For images in signatures: one image up to 300 pixels wide, 125 pixels tall and 20k in size.
* Animated images in a signature are not allowed.
We also have some rules that apply for certain forums
Scheduled Executions Forum
* Is just that! Posts with irrelevant material will be removed.
* As covered in the General Rules, refrain from posts such as DIE F*#@%R.
In Memory Forum
* The In Memory Forum is reserved for posting memorials to victims of violent crimes, not the loss of one's beloved pet.
Off-Topic Forum
* There are several threads in the Off-Topic Forum. They are self-explanatory. Keep in mind, this is a pro-death-penalty website. Therefore, religious and political posts will be removed.
* Crime and Capital Punishment IS NOT your personal blog space. We will not tolerate posts that are not issue-related.
