Default New Forum Rules

All of you probably received this email, but just incase, I am posting it here:

Hello everybody!

Fanhost has become very slow in the last few months. As in there aren't a lot of members that post. Me and Open32 have been thinking how to get Fanhost a bit more active again and we have come up with the following new rules.

1. Minimal amount of new posts per forum per month - From now on each forum will need to have at least 50 new posts per month in order to stay on Fanhost. The posts can't be from the same person, and it can't be spam.

2. More moderators - Right now not all forums have moderators. We would like to change that. So in the coming time Open32 and I will make people moderators who deserve it, and we'll remove moderators who are absent. Now, don't ask to become a moderator. Just show us you deserve to be a moderator by being active in the forum you want to moderate.

3. New forums - We would also like to add new forums. So keep requesting new forums in the appropriate threads and we will pick two new forums each month (it depends on the number of requests). They will first go into the trial category and if we feel that they are active enough, we will move them into the regular categories.
I bolded rule #1 because it applys to us pretty severely. Our post count has dropped significantly in the last year or so. So we may need to come up with some new threads to help keep us alive.
· New games
· Continue Picture threads
· Or we could even discuss some of her recent projects :P

Admittedly, I am not the most active member around these parts. I am unfortunately very busy most of my days. But I will try to get in here more and start new threads more often.

We love Lacey, and we don't want to lose her thread! SO SAY WE ALL!
