Here are some basic groundrules you have to read before creating an account and editing pages.
These are the rules that must be agreed to before contributing to the wiki.


*By signing up, you agree that you're '''15+ years old''' and that you speak English well enough without producing too many grammatical, spelling or interpunction errors.

In this case, '''users may be blocked up to a year''' depending on their age. If users can provide evidence they aren't underage, blocks may be ended early or shortened.

*'''Do not test the patience of the moderation team'''. Breaking a rule for the sole purpose of trying to anger them will only lead to harsher punishments.
