In addition to the rules as outline in the WZ Rule Book, the wrestling forums have some additional rules of its own.
1. Do Not Create Duplicate Threads: Anyone caught starting a thread that has been already been started and is active will be subject to an Infraction at the moderator’s discretion. Before posting a new topic, search (at least) the last three pages of topics in any forum you might believe it would appear. If you find a thread that already discusses your topic, post in that thread. We would much rather have one bumped topic than 4 or 5 of the same topic within a period of only a couple days.
If you create a new topic the same time someone else does, we will go ahead and merge them, with no penalty to you.
2. Do Not Bump Threads Older Than Six Months: If you are searching through the forum, and you find a thread that interests you, but has not been posted in over the last six months, feel free to create a new thread on that topic. Bumping really old threads can cause original meaning to be lost.
3. Do Not Create a Thread Just to Post a News Article: Just posting a news article, without giving your opinion on it, is considered spam. Do not do this, or you will be subject to an Infraction. If you wish to post a news article, feel free to do so, as long as you give your opinion on the subject.
4. Post Topics in the Right Forum: For example, if the topic has to do with a Raw Superstar, post it in the Raw forum. If it has to do with a TNA wrestler, post it in the TNA forum. If it has to do with wrestling in General, post it in the General Wrestling forum. And so on down the line.
5. Spam in the Right Place: There is only ONE forum for spam in the wrestling forums, and it is in the “Live Discussion and Spam Zone”. Spamming anywhere else is subject to penalties outlined in the WZ Rule Book.
Do not forget that all posts in this section require that you:
1) Take a position that is relative to the thread topic and ...
2) Justify the position you take using logic and reasoning. Often times, this can be done by inserting the word "because" in all of your posts.
Warnings or Infractions can result if posts do not fulfill the above "no-spam" requirements in this section.
