READ: 2 NEW rules.
 

We have WAY too many fake vets running around in here. If you registered in June and have damn near 1000 posts.. something is seriously wrong. I am putting these rules into effect to help this situation and clean up the Front Lines.

1. I am bringing back our old rule of only 2 active battles at a time. You are not to have more than 2 battle threads happening at the same time (in the Front Lines) anymore. RBBL and RBTL are the only exceptions. IF YOU CHECK INTO A 3RD BATTLE THEN YOU WILL BE DQ'D IMMEDIATELY AND GIVEN A LOSS!! If someone makes a thread saying to battle you that you didn't agree to, DONT CHECK IN. Tell them that you are already in 2 battles and can't yet.

2. Another solution is to stop users from users upping their battles 25 times to get votes. From now on you are not allowed to UP your own battle more than 5 times. IF YOU UP YOUR THREAD MORE THAN 5 TIMES YOU WILL BE DQ'd. With rule #1 being in effect, there will be less battles to weed through in the Front Lines, so this should not be as big of a problem as you would imagine. If you need that one last vote, or more votes in general, you are to vote on someone else's battle and simply put a link to your battle after your vote as I stated in my previous announcement.

These rules will be active as of 6/16/03 so if you are engaged in more than 3 battles or have upped your thread 25 times already, you don't have to worry about being DQ'd. However if you do this after 6/16, then you will pay the consequences with a DQ.

.......................aight dawg taht is awesome...........................but Dont you think DQ is kinda harsh? I mean wouldnt it just be easier to just CLOSE the battle ya know?? oh well...nice thinkin though man and to ur previous thing too

No, it is not harsh. Why shouldnt they be penalized for the mods having to correct their mistakes? What is to stop them from doing those same mistakes in the future? It could be worse, breaking of most rules in this forum result in banning now..

( This is supposed to be closed and not open to posts, I just forgot to do it. I liked his post and I am sure most of you were thinking that, so I will leave it up. )
