1. ALL RULES OF SOOMPI APPLY.
- Please read the rules carefully. You will be warned if you violate any of them. Using "I didn't know what the rules were" won't work since they're literally pinned in every forum.
2. NO SEXUALLY EXPLICIT TOPICS.
- No sex-related topics are allowed as there are a lot of underaged members here. The reason for disallowing sex threads is clearly stated by melkimx:

Soompi is a place where peers can come to discuss whatever soomp feels is appropriate. If you think the idea of keeping it PG-13 is so stupid, I'm sure you can find plenty of adult forums that are willing to discuss anything you like.
Of course education is good. but it's not our duty to provide it for you - not if it's out of keeping with the tone of this forum, not if the members can't follow the rules, and especially not if the "education" being provided is more along the lines of opinions, random thoughts, and misinformation.

- You post a sex-related topic, you earn a warning. Repeating the offence means your posting ability may be disabled for a week.
3. IF YOUR TOPIC WAS CLOSED, THEN DON'T MAKE ANOTHER TOPIC ASKING WHY.
- If you want to know why your topic was closed, then look at the very last entry or the topic description and it should be an explanation as to why the thread was closed.
4. 20-CHARACTER RULE & SWEAR FILTER.
- Do not bypass either rule by using gibberish or symbols to replace certain letters. Smilies-only replies or merely quoting a post just to fill the 20-character requirement are not allowed.
5. BE CIVILISED.
- Even if you disagree with a particular poster or topic, please do not make offensive, racist or derogatory remarks.
- It is unnecessary to enlarge your font size just to get your point across.
6. RECYCLING & CLOSING YOUR THREAD.
- If you have posted a thread on relationship issue A, do not start another topic on that same issue even if there has been development with regard to that issue. Threads that begin with "... see my other thread regarding this issue..." will either be closed or merged with the original thread.
- If your problem has been solved, please PM either koumi or Aziraphale for the thread to be closed.
7. UNRELATED TOPICS.
- Any topic that does not deal with personal relationships or problems will be closed/removed by the moderators. This is a place for members to seek peer feedback on their personal crises dealing with other people, whether it's their parents, siblings, significant other and etc.
- If you have any of the following symptoms - "Itching, Burning, Oozing, Anything Discoloring or Have Something That Wasn't There Before, or Anything Along These Lines" - please go to a medical site for your questions! If you feel the need to still post a topic asking something to do with the above, then you have a 95% chance that'll you get nothing but childish responses.
8. POLLS.
- Please read the Announcement carefully before starting a poll in the L&R.
Please do your bit to keep the forum tidy!
