Project Rules

Post by Tara »

[*] Finished and In-Progress Projects[/size]
Depending on the project, content featured on the Over The Sky website will be updated in portions or all at once. Many in-progress projects will be posted in this forum way before the site itself, so please keep an eye out in here!

[*] Contributing[/size]
There are no restrictions on contributing either scans or translations or anything else. This domain was created partially due to many people randomly jumping in to share and translate things, so I want to keep that openness up here. If you have something to offer that the website doesn't have, or even a random out-or-order page or two of some novel or artbook that hasn't been translated or scanned yet, go right ahead and share it in the appropriate thread!

There are no time restraints or real "rules" in getting any project done. After all, we're here to have fun so going at whatever a comfortable pace is for us is fine.

[*] Editing vs. Double Posting[/size]
Due to the fact that projects will be worked on by any number of people at any pace at any point, it's fine to bump threads and double post as much as you want, so long as you're contributing something to the actual project.

[*] Language and Offensive Material[/size]
Nobody's going to get a smack down for a couple of f-bombs or whatever, so don't worry about that. Just try not to go curse-like-a-sailor overboard with it!

And if you're linking to something that might be more on the NSFW-side, please give your fellow users a heads up and don't directly post anything if it's an image! We do have spoiler tags.

[*] Stay on Topic[/size]
Pretty self-explanatory! Please try to keep threads on topic-- it's fine to have a couple of off-handed comments here and there, but again, please don't go overboard where it gets difficult to find discussion on the original topic of a thread.

[*] Grammar and Spam[/size]
Try to keep grammar/spelling legible enough for others to read (example: "u" is only 2 letters shorter than "you" and things will be a lot easier to read if you just type those two extra letters).

And again, it's more of a "just watch yourself" thing, but try not to use excessive emoticons or quick, short replies that aren't really contributing to a thread. Some is always fun, but try not to go too far with it.

[*] Licensed Material[/size]
Links to official streams and items are fine to post on the forum, but please try to refrain from posting illegal links and downloads to licensed material. You're more than free to announce the presence of such things, but please no links. Most people know the go-tos for that sort of thing anyway, and if not, please keep it to Private Messages.

[*] Sourcing Fanworks[/size]
We love fanfic and fanart, and we love sharing our findings. If you're posting material like that, please take a moment to use a site like saucenao.com that easily finds you the source material! Everybody who creates fanworks understands that credit is polite to give. If you see something that you know the source to, please let the poster know!

[*] Be Nice and Have Fun[/size]
Being nice and respectful toward everyone else is really the big rule here, and doing so covers almost everything above anyway. We're all here for fun and mutual love of this series, and relaxing and enjoying it with fellow fans is the best part of immersing in it. So get posting and have fun!
