This is a question I`ve had in mind for a long time: what exactly are the rules on the forums? Are callotouts allowed now?  Do they follow the rules and conduct-thingy, or is there some thread about it here that I have overseen?

As I would imagine, the new team working on Hawken are probably avoiding restrictions that could potentially prohibit community activity. Amazingly, it doesn't seem like the community needs a ruleset to buffer posts, currently. When the game reaches a state where it can support itself without cutting corners, buffers will start to rise from the surface of these forums. Of course, with that surge in activity, will also be a surge of undesirables.

I see two possibilities:

1. There are no rules.
2. Old Meteor/ADH rules are used.

Don't ask me what is the case, we need a statement from the devs.

I feel as long as people are civil with one another there shouldn't be a need for any rules as such.

When I interviewed Josh, I asked him about this and he basically said that it's time to just get it done. I expect that we'll have official rules soon.

the rules are probaly just "don't be too rude, don't break the law" anyway. which works for me.

So, callouts are OK this week. 

 

(I actually am considering posting in that thread.  Aregon is giving me reason to keep out of it.)


Did I say Call Me Ishmael?

 

You should call me Luna.

Some "common sense" ethical/moral values are being utilized, as certain posts containing profanity, base offensive religious/sexual/violence related, or just material that a kid, the cute girl next door, or what most would think that average people would be repulsed by have mysteriously disappeared from some threads in here.

 

Google: Kindergarten Rules.

If you really know it's wrong, you intended it to be Not Nice or for everyone else get that impression, don't be surprised if your post gets what it deserves. As for VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE being presented in callouts, I'm all for it. Violate ingame rules or other open/public community activity (chat, teamspeak,Skype), get treated appropriately.

I have no knowledge if Warning Points are being issued yet or if that part of the system is active, but it should be.

My opinion.

;)

Also apparently we should read that little terms of service thing. Huh.

There is one rule and one rule only:
Everyone's avatar must show some depiction of a furry animal. Pets are preferred, but anything goes i.e Iguanas, Llamas, Koalas.

There was once a thread about an EU-pilot distracting the one >2000 MMR server in the night a lot. With a lot I mean really a lot. He was reported from several veterans, Capn Josh was contacted directly etc. - no response. So Rozer made the thread about him. Got deleted. This was the heaviest call out I have seen and boy it was needed.

It's furry and it's an animal, so it checks out ;)

Just got to say something, maybe they were busy with something important, like the coding? Pretty sure it was around that time they were the busiest.

More than one, actually. They're all gone, now.

I guess the message is that in this game, one can cheat, hurl racial slurs, and make death threats, with zero consequence-other than people impotently complaining on the forum.

 

nice


The Hawken forum's a forum, but it's like the only one you get yelled at for using.

No, no, no.  You can do all the above, as long as it's NOT on the Forum (and from what I've seen, that's not a certainty either).

Anywhere else in Hawken anything is allowed, AimBots included, unless it specifically annoys a specific person for some reason.

Have I got that about right?

Damm. I don't get out enough.
