Forum Guidelines Reminder: Art Threads and Flagging

[Sydney_H]

Hello Episodians! There have been some recent issues with art threads containing content that is not in line with our forums guidelines, which you can read here.

We strive to keep the Episode forums a positive, uplifting community for our artists and authors! With that in mind, if you come across any content that is not in line with our guidelines, please make sure to flag it. This will notify the forum staff (such as myself!) that a possible violation has occurred and needs to be reviewed.

The kind of content that should be flagged includes:

@ForumAdmin

Plagiarism: Taking others’ creative work and displaying it as your own or without credit is unfair to the artist or author who created it.

@ForumAdmin

Trolling/Baiting: Posting just to anger or offend other members doesn’t positively contribute to any discussion, and creates a negative atmosphere for everyone.

@ForumAdmin

Harassment/Name Calling/Bullying: Seeking to harm, annoy, hurt or intimidate other users with insults, threats, putdowns, abuse, or aggressive behavior is not permitted on our forums. If you feel like someone is engaging in these behaviors, please PM @Sydney_H.

If you’re unfamiliar with the flagging system, here’s a quick summary:

Click next to the Reply button on a post and you’ll see this:

Click the flag circled in red and select one of the four options provided.

If you’re unsure which flag best fits the post, or you have additional information to add to the flag, please select the “Something Else” option.

As always, please keep in mind that attempting to moderate another forum member’s behavior is a violation of the general rules:

@ForumAdmin

Your behavior in our community matters! The moderators reserve the right to remove any member who is not positively contributing to the community. The sorts of behaviors that lead to being permanently removed from the forums include:

• Repeatedly starting arguments with other members.
• Repeatedly hijacking threads for off topic discussion.
• Backseat moderating other members posts or behaviors. If you see something, please use the flagging system or DM a moderator.

Thank you!
