I don't plan on being a heavy handed mod. This is a small forum, and I'm sure you guys can self regulate. That said, if you see something in the forum that violates the rules, or want to bring something to my attention, please do so here.
BASIC GUIDELINES 1. This thread is for promoting your projects. Not a band you like. 2. No topics for pimping your journal or your contest. 3. Constructive criticism is always welcome. 4. Zero tolerance for trolls in here. If you go into a thread for the express purpose of abusing the users inside, you will be banned from this forum. No warnings.

Also, if you see anything in this forum that requires my attention, please let me know by posting in this thread. I'll also try and keep a log of sorts of any kind of moderating activity I perform either in here or another thread.
1. Repeated violation of the site terms of use. 2. Repeated violation of any of the forum's rules, notably regarding spamming, creating topics to promote a journal or an image or a campaign. 3. Repeated Violation of this forum's rules and guidelines.
I will add to this list as I see fit and as the situation warrants.
Hey all. Do yourselves a favor. Keep this thread on watch so that you can be aware of the latest news and updates to the Billboard Forum. If you didn't see it before, I edited the first post. I mentioned that if you see anything here that violates the rules or at least raises a flag, let me know.
Rationale: 4. Zero tolerance for trolls in here. If you go into a thread for the express purpose of abusing the users inside, you will be banned from this forum. No warnings.
On one hand, if it's not stickied, it'll sink to the bottom pretty fast, thus defeating the purpose of the AOIO Videos thread. On the other hand, it does kind of single out one user project to be sticked, even if it is one that's open to everyone and that a lot of people are involved in.
I'm outsourcing the thinking on this one you guys decide. Poll is open until the end of the week.
I was planning to leave it stickied for a short period of time in order to increase visibility so more people can watch the thread. Feel free to unsticky it whenever you feel that it's received enough visibility. We can always link to the video thread from the discussion thread.
I'm going to leave it alone for now. AOIO is easily the Billboard project that has the widest participation, so I'll leave the topic stickied for a while.
Do you mean thread? There isn't yet. I'm going to make a separate pimp your group thread. Or you can go ahead and make one if you'd like. Just so we're clear, it's a thread designed to pimp all groups. I don't want a separate thread for each group.
If you only have a single video that you made and want to promote, you can create a new thread for it on the following conditions:
1) if you make future videos, use the same thread to promote them instead of making a new thread for each video. I will change the name of the thread and the links in the first post if you request me to 2) original content, please. something you made, not a video you found elsewhere.
I noticed a bunch of clutter up top with the stickies. I'll be consolidating a few of the threads in the next few days (The Billboard, Billboard Forum Issues and Questions, and Guidelines) into a streamlined RULES thread so that it's just a little clearer what the rules of this forum are.
