Therefore, please refrain from using: Slang, Spam, threatening behaviour, harassment messages, vulgar language or any others types of messages which are intended to hurt someone's feelings in anyway.

1.2.3. Spamming
Ensure that you never make double posts or replies anywhere on the forum. You are required to put all relevant text into one post or reply. If you forget to include something in your article then please use the edit button under your message so that you can edit it and make the necessary changes without making a completely new post/reply in your topic. The same applies for whole new topics; for example if you're discussing TV programmes please use your common sense and discuss all the programmes you intend to talk about in the same topic, do not make a new topic for each and every programme.

This is a runescape clan only and we are not here to resolve other peoples problems. This rule is not speaking on anyone's behalf so if you do have a friend in the clan that can help then please negotiate privately and NEVER bring the discussion into public light, please keep the discussion between yourselves instead of publicly begging. Begging puts a huge strain and burden on people that usually don't give much away.

Note: you can inform people if you have been hacked in the Shoutbox, but ONLY inform, nothing else!

You must not force or encourage users to pay an admission fee so that they can take part in your event. So for example, setting up admission fees for lotteries or raffles is not allowed and will result in action being taken against you. In the past organizers of such events have collected all of accumulated admission fee's from participants and ran off with their earnings and basically ditched the event. This causes big upset for users taking part, so we're no longer taking any risk's, admission fees are 100% BANNED!
Note: This doesn't apply to Co-Leaders, Leaders or Administrators.

All events which are organized on this board must be fair and safe. During any event you must not attack other members of the clan or threaten fellow clan members during trips out into dangerous places such as the wilderness. Killing or harming members of the clan is prohibited because although it is fun for some, for others it can be deeply depressing and cause hate and arguments between members of the clan. Organizers of events must report back to leaders or forum administrators if any betrayals or disruptions occur between clan members participating in an official clan event. If no report is made we will just assume that your event was successful.
Note: This doesn't apply to events which are designed to attack each other.

1.4.2. Scamming/tricking
Performing scams such as the "trust test" on fellow members is banned. If you help other members of our clan to trick, deceive, scam, take advantage of in-game bugs or anything deemed to be classed as an unfair advantage or cheating then you will be punished. As you know tricking, scamming or causing damage to peoples' in-game reputations can usually be reported via the 'report abuse' button inside the game. However, if you fall victim to things like the "trust test" or are affected severely by someone's actions the leaders and admins of the clan will gladly intervene and take action against the offender providing that you have evidence to suggest he/she broke our rules and the in-game rules set by Jagex Ltd.

This means that all events organized have to be reviewed and approved before all clan members can see the event details in a topic. All events should be fun and safe, please support this and keep it that way.

1.4.4. Account Sharing/Trading
If you request to trade accounts or share accounts with clan members, both members will be punished. We will also contact Jagex regarding the rule you're breaking.

1.4.6. Unfair Encouraging
If you spread lies about the clan, clan members or staff that is intended to have a huge negative impact which will ultimately drive people away from our organization, you will be permanently banned for all the damage you've caused.

Please do not commit yourself to do this as its very disrespectful and can be damaging.

1.4.7. Executable Links

A member is someone who has joined The Skull Knight's Clan. It is the lowest usergroup available (not counting the Guests and the Validating). Members can't moderate anything, but they are allowed to view almost all of the forums as well as to reply to topics and start their own. They are allowed to host events, but they have to visit at least one event or ask a moderator for the event to be posted.
Members can also apply for higher ranks when they are available (see clause 2.2. for more information). All of the rules apply to them.
Note: Please do not confuse SKC members with RuneScape Members.

2.1.2. Supreme Member and Artistic Staff
A Superior Member is someone who has joined the Skull Knight's Clan and has more than 80 combat in-game. They have the same permissions as normal members do. The only difference is that other members can host a Superior Member PKing trip, where only they can come.

2.1.3. War General
War generals are people that lead members of SKC in wilderness, have experience in fighting, can ally with other clans or do any other diplomatic activity. They have a bit less permissions than the High Council members.

2.1.4. High Council
High Council members were originally made for participating in various polls and deciding if suggestions should be accepted. Now, the usergroup has been changed and High Council members are basically forum moderators. They have more permissions than the usergroups mentioned above.

2.1.5. Co-Leader
Co-leaders are SKC members that have many more moderating permissions, and can decide many things, such as hosting a war, making alliances etc. They have even more moderation permissions than the High Council members.

2.1.6. Leader
Leaders are members of SKC that are very trustworthy. They can always give some advice to other members, so anyone can write private messages to them. Leaders have almost unlimited permissions - they can make anything they want with the members of SKC, alliances, host any events, change the board settings etc.

3. Warning system, Member of the Month and King of the Year

3.1. Warning system

3.1.1. How does it work
The Warning system is in effect when a member's Warning level is increased. You can find the Warning level of any member just below their avatar.
When the member breaks a rule, he may be warned. The warning system allows Private Message sending, e-mail sending, Moderator Preview and Suspend, as well as stating the reason. Moderators will be able to access the panel to warn a member.
Members can view anyone's warning level. It will show up as:
Warning level increased
This is a sample reason for warning.
Members who have been warned will receive a PM, with all of the reason for the warn inside.

3.1.2. How to warn rule breakers (for Co-Leaders and up)
Moderators will be able to warn members. If a moderator finds anyone breaking the rules, they should click on the + sign to increase the warning level for the member. A new box should open, and there moderators should see a few fields. The Moderator must enter the reason and the PM fields, and also enter the time for which the member must be banned if they have to be. To see for how many rule breakings members must be warned, please see the clause 4.2. - Rule breaking types and which system is applied to them.

3.1.3. How to report rule breakers (for lower ranks than Co-Leader)
Members can request warn level increasion for other members by clicking on the Report button while reading a topic, and then stating how that post broke the rules.

3.1.4. Where to complain if you have been warned for no reason
If you have been warned without a reason, you can always complain in the Rants section of our forums, or write directly to the Moderating group.

3.2. Member of the Month and the Reputation system

3.2.1. What is Member of the Month
The Member of the Month is a member who has been active, helpful, loyal and didn't break the rules a whole month. Any members of SKC can vote for one MOTM, stating why they have chosen to vote for that member. If a member get the MOTM rank, they will have a new look so they would be different from other members, and everyone would see who to follow.
There are some exceptions about who can't be MOTM:
People that are currently MOTM;
People who are currently KotY.
After voting, people shouldn't forget to add a point into that member's Reputation for counting votes for the King of the Year award. They can also state who has gone in-active without stating it, were not loyal or not helpful for the clan, and then give a negative MOTM vote as well as a negative Reputation point, but the reason must be really strong to do that!

3.2.2. What is the Reputation system
The Reputation System is a simple system where members can add points into other members' reputation. The Reputation level is showing other members how is the member doing in the clan, and also negates the warning level of the member.

3.2.3. How are they related with each other
Anyone who vote in MOTM award should add a point into the Reputation of the member as well. This will help to count votes for the King of the Year award.

3.2.4. How to vote
People can vote in the MOTM awards in the MOTM forum. The latest post, if it's open, will be for voting. Members can reply, stating their reason and voting for someone, as well as stating a reason for a negative vote. Then, they should find a post by that member, and change the Reputation by clicking on either + or - sign of the Reputation system's part of the profile. Then, the member must provide the URL of the vote, as well as the same reason they stated in the vote. Members can find the numbers by clicking on the digits at the top right side of their voting post, and then copying the URL.

3.2.5. How does Member of the Month status negate warning levels
If you get a Member of the Month status, your warning level (if you have any) is negated by 10%, with the reason "Was Member of the Month in (month), (year).". If he doesn't have any warning levels, his warning level goes to negative for 2 statuses of Member of the Month.

3.3. King of the Year

3.3.1. What is King of the Year
The King of the Year is a nomination awarded anually to one member. Only those who were active, helpful, loyal and acted perfectly all year will be awarded The King of the Year status. As MOTM, KOTY will have new look. The same member can't be KOTY if they have been KOTY the last year.

3.3.2. When are the votes counted
KOTY will be nominated by looking at the Reputation points that were awarded for MOTM votes. They will be counted at Christmas, and the rank will be given at the New year anually.

3.3.3. What does the King of the Year receive
The King of the Year gets all of their warning points deducted as well as getting 10% anti-warn. And, of course, they will have an unique look whole year!

4. Punishments

4.1. Punishment systems

4.1.1. Warning punishment system
The Warning Punishment System is the normal system used for dealing with rule breakers. It consists of two parts - moderator(+) viewable and user viewable. The Moderator viewable part is the one moderators(+) will use for taking action against rule breakers. The user viewable part informs users about someone's broken rules and actions taken. You can access both parts on clicking on the number after the "Warn: (%" sign in any post. You can find the sign just lower the user's avatar. When you click on the number(s), a new window will appear. There you can view all of the offences that were made against a user. After the "Warn" sign there are two buttons - "+" and "-" (sometimes red and green). Moderators(+) should use the "+" button to add an offence. Once you click on it, you will be redirected to the Member Warning Center, where you will be able to warn the member. You must fill "Reason for this warn adjustment", "Email / PM Subject" and "Send message to member". Then, if the offence is done several times, you may have to use the "Suspend member's account" field to suspend the member. For what to fill there, please refer to 4.2. section.

4.1.2. Permanent Ban system
The Permanent Ban system is used very rarely, and can only be used by Administrators. This way, the rule breaker is banned instantly with an opportunity to appeal his ban. This system is used only when a rule with Priority level 5 is broken or after a month ban if the member breaks the rules again.

3rd time: Increased warning level and permanent ban.

4.2.5. Breaking Priority 5 rules
1st time: Increased warning level and permanent ban.

4.2.6. Breaking multiple rules
For multiple rule breakers, moderators(+) should use the same level punishments as the rules broken. Here's an example:
A member breaks Priority 1 rule - he is verbally warned; Then he breaks Priority 2 rule and is noticed that the next time his warning level will increase; Then he breaks Priority 3 rule and his warning level is increased; He breaks Priority 4 rule and gets a one-week suspend; Then he breaks Priority 5 rule and is banned permanently.
Another example:
A member breaks Priority 4 rule - he gets banned for one week; Then he breaks Priority 3 rule and is banned for a month; Then he breaks Priority 2 rule and gets a permanent ban.

4.2.7. Warning level importance
Why is the Warning level important? It is important because members with any Warning level won't be able to get a high position in the clan, as rule breakers are really not trustworthy. Here's a list of what usergroups aren't available for a member with warning levels:
10% warn - can't be an Administrator; 20% warn - can't be a Leader; 30% warn - can't be a Co-Leader; 40% warn - can't be in High Council; 50% warn - can't be in Council; 60% warn - can't be a War General.
Please note that being a Member of the Month negates warning levels, as stated in "3.2.5. How does Member of the Month status negate warning levels".
