- Please try to be supportive and welcoming, but speak freely(but constructively) about any concerns you have.
Refer to wikipedia's definition of constructive criticism.

- Please don't lower yourself to throwing insults, however disguised they may be. Try to represent the community positively. Do this to reinforce the idea that there are no enemies here, even if we may act as rivals on occasion.

- Encourage new members to speak freely and maturely. Invite them to open new threads about points of interest you found in their post.

- If a particular conversation within an introduction thread would have merit as its own thread, consider making it one. Quote the relevant parts of related posts in order of being posted and continue discussion there. Or PM me, I'd be happy to do it.

Addendum (copy-pasta):
Although for introductions things like large claims are not permitted, we expect you to back up the claims you make with either logical reasoning, solid scientific proof, and/or academic (meaning, well research and cited [preferably by credible sources like scholars]) facts.

If you make a claim that you do not wish to defend, do not make those claims. Also, never assume anything you claim is fact until proven otherwise. It is better to simply say "I might be a fox spirit because x reasons." than to say "I am a kitsune. (Period.)" The latter will earn you a bad reputation as a first impression and others will discredit what you say since you seemed not to even (1) follow the guidelines here, and (2) fail to backup claims.

The purpose of this is to weed out (albeit this method is not 100% foolproof) role players, posers, and trolls from coming here.
