The Ten Commandments of KMC
1. Thou shalt read the damn rules.
One of the stupidest things ever is watching members break the rules. Of course, we all do it, even me. But then again, I shouldn't, and neither should you 🙂

2. Thou shalt post Where it Belongs
Post where the type of post belongs. Don't post a thread about Music in the GDF, and don't post any random "😐" thread in the Music forum. Post Roleplay in the RP forums. If a specific forum won't have your thread, then don't make it in the first place.

3. Thou shalt not bash at random.
Random bashing is pathetic. And it happens all too often. The "noobs" wonder why they get called n00bs, is because they bash people at random and without cause. Don't be an ass, and you won't get called a n00b 👆
4. Thou shalt not use 133t speak on these forums.
Sure you have Freedom of Speech, but doing it just paints a red target on your forehead for bashing.
5. Thou shalt not post pointless crap.
Don't post threads like "I shat myself" and then "😐" in them. That was new and funny in '03, but now it's old and stupid. Find a new fad.
6. Thou shalt not lie about yourself.
When the truth comes out, you'll have almost no friends left and no respect at all. You'll deserve what you get. Don't post fake pics of yourself, or act like a girl while you're a guy. More importantly, don't lie about your age.
7. Thou shalt not be a moron.
It's the simple truth. Argueing about something when you know you're wrong just proves that you're an idiot and you'll deserve whatever you get after that.
8. Thou shalt use the Ignore feature.
While we don't have the Ignore Thread option back... yet, we can still ignore people. That's often the most mature course of action, as it blocks there posts and pm's from your view. You can't block moderators, for obvious reasons, so don't try. This is the most mature option, and gives you more freedom to post what you want. Let others deal with idiots, argueing with them only makes you one too.
9. Thou shalt not stalk or harrass.
Both will get you banned faster than posting porn will. Don't do that either. Stalking is following specific members via posting wherever they post.
10. Though shalt not be immature.
The biggest gripe of all is the general immaturity of the boards. Bashing noobs simnply because they're noobs, acting superior, pretending that you're all high and mighty, etc etc... isn't welcome. The more mature you are, the better standing you'll have with those who are mature, who are usually the mod's and much older members. So stop being immature and grow up, and you'll survive longer than those that post things like:
"F00k j00!!!!"
