Forum Rules and FAQ

[Altima of the Gates]

What's Okay
- Impressions, theoretical discussions, questions, news, exchange of info on Type-Moon related games, anime, manga, etc.

- Linking/posting fanarts, music videos, fanfics. Note that if it's not your work, it's important that you give credit to the author. If you don't know the name of the person, but happen to know their website, you can just link their main homepage.
Example: You made a custom wallpaper out of fanart with photoshop. The author is the person who originally drew that image.

While BL won't allow you to break tables with an image, exceptionally large images can disrupt reading, annoy mobile users, and are in general unnecessary. If your picture is over ~1000p tall, you should spoiler it. If it's getting to be several MB in size, link it off-site or shrink it.


What's not okay
- Asking where to download games, anime, CGs, scans or music in bulks. Posting a link to it, is of course, prohibited as well. Sample fansubs, unlicensed materials, freely distributed games, and demos are okay.
Downloading copyrighted materials even internationally is still illegal and disrespectful in my view. If downloading is the only way in your country, please do the research on your own. This is not the place.

- Discomforting others. Remember, this is a PUBLIC place. Please treat others like you would like to be.

- Things completely unrelated to Type-Moon in General Discussion. If you like Type-Moon, you might also like... type of suggestions are okay.

- We remind you of the rules you agreed to when you signed up.


About Avatars and Signature Artworks
You're basically free to use whatever avatar or signature artwork you want to use, even if it's not Type-Moon related. Although it is debatable to determine if they're within the range of personal usage or not in respect to the orginal artist, at least have a courtesy to know where the artwork you're using comes from.

Finally, a disclaimer. Tsukihime and Fate / Stay Night are both 18 and over games. You may see or read things that may be of adult content. Since it's impossible to stop minors from freely using the internet in the first place, what you see on this board is your choice and responsibility.

Failure to comply with the forum rules may result in several warnings and finally a ban.

Thanks for reading!


With a little addition for New BL:

Even on the old forum, General Discussion had recently been sliding into becoming an offshoot of the Seventh. Please do your best not to turn the more serious discussion side of the forum into a spam forum - there are other places for that. Use discretion in your posting.
Thank you.
