Topic: NOTE + New Fan Stuff RULE: Read before posting

[Jorge D. Fuentes]

A minimum of three original posts in any of the other forums is required before one can post fan stuff here.

This is done in order to prevent spambots from posting here.  As a side-effect, newbies (people with the 'newbie' status) cannot post up any stuff until they've mingled in the other forums.

You can also make a post in CV General Discussion, and send any Moderator a PM and they'll move the thread here.

After three original posts, a 'newbie' becomes a 'hunter in training' and will be allowed to post here.

I hope this clears up any confusion.


NEW PLAGIARISM RULE FOR FAN STUFF & CONTESTS!

Plagiarism is strictly frowned upon and it's a major offense in Fan Stuff and in Fan Stuff Contests.  Therefore, any material that is found out to be plagiarized, whether by being copied, downloaded, or PrintScreened, etc. and used in another work, or claimed as one's own work, will be met with an immediate cease-warning. We understand that sometimes people use sprites or other material without realizing they weren't meant for public use. Thus, the cease-warning is intended to inform those who don't know they're doing something inappropriate about what's happening and give them a chance to mend their transgression amicably.

Intentional and willful plagiarism, however, is extremely distasteful and has absolutely no place at the Castlevania Dungeon whatsoever. Thus, the cease-warning will be given to the user via PM, and tell them that they do not have permission to use the resource in question, that they are in violation of our anti-plagiarism rule, and if they do not remove the offending resource, whether it's art, music, etc. from their work, they will be banned from the forum without the possibility of a return.  If the user refuses to edit the plagiarized resources from their work or remove it entirely if entirely plagiarized even after being given a cease-warning, the administration will promptly PermaBan them. Should they return, they will be in violation of the Ban Evasion rule, and further punishments will be dealt as needed.

Now that you mention it, what are those "positions" in the user profile? Do they change with your post count? Can you post here what position you gain with a certain number of posts?

Moderators have five green stars, Global Moderators have five blue stars, and Administrators have five red stars.  In case you guys didn't know how to spot a mod, that's one of the ways.  Also the title says so. 

People (and spambots) start up as Newbie.  Since, previously, spambots would create an account for the sole purpose of spamming this forum, I restricted posting in here to Hunters in Training, which requires three original threads being created in any of the other subforums (to level up).  It used to be 10 posts a while back, but was recently changed to 3 posts.

If you use the "Reply" function, you will see a number of buttons that should help you.  There is a "Flash" button, it looks like this: .

The image buttons looks like this: 

The Hyperlink buttons looks like this:

If by 'unicode' you mean the tags that show up in braces, such as "[" and "]", then yes, the url one, the img one, etc. work.
