General Download Rules and Restrictions

[corocoro]

The following rules apply to all download sections. Please read them, and the rules for the specific section, carefully before making a thread. It is expected of all members to familiarize themselves with the rules before posting and failure to do so is no excuse for breaking the rules.

1. It may take some time before your post shows up in the downloads sections. Please read here for more details.
   
   
2. Repeat offenders will be stopped from posting in the download sections. Registering multiple accounts to circumvent this is not allowed.
   
   
3. We don't forbid members from uploading already available content, but we'd like to ask them to refrain from this practice. It only leads to unncessary clutter and confusion.
   
   
4. Bumping a thread with additional mirrors is allowed once within first 48 hours after creation of the thread. Additional bumps will be punished with the replies being deleted, the thread debumped and finally the user being restricted from posting in the download sections.
   Exception is adding additional content once a reasonable amount of time has passed. This includes things like new episodes. This does NOT include savegames, walkthroughs, additional screenshots, fixing dead links, adding cracks, etc. Furthermore, collection threads are exempt by their very nature. Staff discretion applies.
   
   
5. Putting blog URL in the post body is considered shilling and is not allowed. You can only put your blog URL in your signature, with regular typeface, and only one per signature is allowed.
   
   
6. Duplicate accounts in the download section are not allowed.
   
   
7. Do not post your links in other people's thread without prior permission.
   
   
8. Do not hotlink images from a shop's or producer's site.
   
   
9. All threads/posts must contain usable download links in them. This means both premium-only threads and threads linking to external sources are forbidden.
   
   
10. Adding a dummy file to your upload to artificially inflate size and gain higher rewards is strictly prohibited.
    
    
11. Do not use cash redirects. Anonym.to is okay, linkbucks is an instantaneous ban.
    
    
12. Any attempt to rig search results by adding excessive and/or unnecessary content and tagging to your posts is forbidden.
    
    
13. Western content is strictly prohibited. This restriction does not apply to content originating in Japan and localized/translated in the West.
    
    
14. Real-life pornography is not allowed.
    
    
15. No necroposting. If you want to request a very old upload, please send a private message or post in the request section.
    
    
16. Members that edit their old posts after they get past moderation to include cash redirects, blog URL, or anything that breaks the rules will be permanently banned without warning.
    
    
17. Exceptions may be granted by staff members at their sole discretion.
