7. Post new topics in the right board, look through the board list before posting.
8. Do not act trollish. This includes posting text or images with stuff like "trololololol" especially all these people who think it's cool to have "trololol" or "u mad?" in your avatar or signature.

11. Do not request a forum status, they will be given when an administrator believes you deserve it.
12. Do not use large images or text in your signature or annoying images in your avatar or signature. To avoid breaking this rule do not use dynamic images (things that don't end with .jpg .png etc) Do not have so much stuff in your signature that the height is unreasonable for example having multiple small images and multiple lines of text would be too much height unless you had the sense to put them on the same line. Misuse of spoilers in your signature for example spoilers inside spoilers or empty spoilers is not permitted.
13. Posting in a topic which hasn't been posted in for over 1 month without saying something important will result in post deletion and forum warning.

30. Do not apply for a community rank if you do not meet the minimum post requirements and also do not lie in your application.
31. Asking somebody to vote in a certain way in a topic or post undermines democracy and is forbidden. You cannot have a link to a suggestion, or something that can be voted on, as part of your signature.
32. Giving stupid answers in support board like "format your PC" is stupid and will not be tolerated.
33. Posting a topic in a committee board which doesn't meet the posting guidelines or is an insult to a developer who spends their time making something and then if you're an ungrateful idiot who doesn't even understand what you're talking about, will get you warned. Do not post things for people who do not have access to posting topics themselves.
34. Saying that you've "tested and confirmed" a bug and then it turns out you didn't, because the bug isn't even valid, you will get warned.
35. Registering another forum account when you first one was muted or banned will result in a permanent ban on both accounts.
36. Avatars or signatures that use an animated GIF, and that GIF movement is significant enough to cause annoyance or distraction to anybody who is trying to read stuff, but can't because somebody has an annoying avatar or signature which is constantly moving next to what they're trying to read. You will get warned and the image will be removed.
37. Registering a forum account via a proxy or using a temporary email account will be assumed as attempted ban evasion or registering with malicious intent and will result in a permanent ban when an administrator processes your registration attempt.
38. When we are processing your forum registration attempt and another forum account has been used recently from the same IP address, probably because you're trying to create multiple identities for yourself, you will be treated with extreme prejudice which means you will probably end up banned, your account registration will be delayed and probably rejected.
39. Questions posted in the "General Support / Questions" MUST BE ABOUT CIT. If you want to make a server, buy a website or anything that has nothing to do with CIT, DO NOT ASK FOR HELP IN THIS BOARD.
40. Starting fights in complaints while you are NOT one of the complained players neither the complainer will be considered as an attempt to waste staff members' time.
What happens if I get muted?
You become muted if your warning level goes over 70%. Warning levels go down by 1% every day and when it goes below 70% again you will be able to post again.
