Rules
Since Shaychu has had their rules stolen multiple times, we've decided to make an image form of the rules.
Yes this image can be edited at any time, but it would be ideal to make as few revisions as possible so there isn't a load of work.
We will set a (not in-stone) semi-permanent set of rules, here. that will be made into the image.
Here are the rules. Post any rules you think should be added, removed, or revised, and why.

- Spoiler:
Here are the basic rules to follow:
0) Everybody Love Everybody-The most important rule, so important that it is number zero. The title says it all, everybody love everybody.
1) Respect others-This mean any and every member. Also respect the admin and the mods' decisions, they usually have a legit reason for doing anything. Also...No flaming! Do not start fights, constantly argue, or try to purposely get yourself in trouble. (40% Warning Bar increase)
2) No spamming-Please refrain from pointless posting, one word post, or any "chatbox" like post. Spam belongs in the Spam Central forum. (20% Warning Bar increase)
3) Please be appropriate-Please try and use appropriate language, pictures, etc. No cursing. The only curses acceptable only at certain times are: dang and heck. (20% Warning Bar increase for cursing) (30% Warning Bar increase for bad pictures)
4) No advertising-You may tell people about certain sites and give them links to videos/other media, but do not advertise a forum you made. Not even partner forums, if members feel the urge to join a forum they may click your button. If you get a PM or see anyone advertising, please report it to a moderator or admin and you may be rewarded. (50% Warning Bar increase)
5) No plagiarism-Don't post anybody else's artwork or text without appropriate credit (something where the artist can be considered obvious, such as official art or characters, video game screenshots, etc., does not count), and definitely do not claim to have created anything that you didn't. (20% Warning Bar increase)
6) Do not give out any information that might be too personal, it is best for your own safety! Giving out your gender, age, or state is considered fine.
7) No begging-Do not beg someone to battle/trade you, and no begging to be a mod or an admin. (25% Warning Bar increase)
Please speak English.... no foreign languages, this is a site made in English, so speak it please. (10% Warning Bar increase)
9) Have fun-Don't always be moping around and try and be as active as possible. Also, try not to talk about your personal problems as it could make members sad and may make some sign off.
10) Do not revive dead topics. A dead topic is one that has not had any posts in 3 or more weeks. Don't post in them. (15% Warning Bar increase)
11) Do not double, triple, quadruple, etc. post. If you have something to add, use the edit button. The only place you may double post is in YOUR art thread(s), shop(s), trading thread(s), and fan fic(s). (10% Warning Bar increase)
12) Do not post obscene or pornographic pictures/videos, or make links to such. (This is a PERMA-BAN offense.)
13) You are responsible for your account. If you have nosy siblings, we recommend that you log out when you are done with your visit. In other words, we will not accept the excuse "Oh, my little brother/sister/mean friend/evil monster under the bed posted all those mean messages the other day! Don't ban me!"
14) No Duplicate Accounts. If you make one while you are banned, you will be PERMA-Banned. If you make one while not being banned, your new account will be perma-banned, and your original account will have a 75% warning bar increase.
15) Do not mini-mod. Mini-modding is when you see a post that violates a rule, and you say something along the lines of "Oh, you're not supposed to spam!" "Oh, this is in the wrong forum". Our job as admins/mods is to take care of these things. (20% Warning Bar increase)
16) Please keep avatar and sig sizes to a normal size. We don't want to see any oversized ones. Avatars should be kept around 200x200 pxls and signatures should have good judgment. If they take up half or more of the page they're too big. 300 or so pixels in height by 600 or so wide is about average acceptable size. (15% Warning Bar increase)
17) Do not post excessive smilies, even in the spam forum. It may make some people's internet connection go very slow, or can make their web browser freeze. (15% Warning Bar increase)
18) Do not make links that mislead people to something not implied or described by the explanation given. (20% Warning Bar increase)
19) Do not post flashy pictures that rapidly change colors, as they can give certain people seizures. (25% Warning Bar increase)
20) Do not have any religious or political talk as it often leads to arguments. (20% Warning Bar increase)
21) Do not make excessively long posts anywhere in the forums! This includes the spam board. (20% Warning Bar increase)
22) No drug talk. Again, this is a children's forum where most of our users are not age-mature enough to read such material. This includes alcohol and the like. (30% Warning Bar increase)
Please try and follow these rules, if you break them too many times... there WILL BE consequences. And I know this seems like a lot, but it's all to make your visit to Shaychu as enjoyable as possible.

Re: Rules
It's impossible to completely stop plagiarism. There are many programs out there that can convert an image into copyable text.
As far as protection options, it's probably our best one because of page sources and such, but no content is invulnerable to plagiarism.

Re: Rules
I know it's impossible to completely stop, but this is a decent effort.
