Use common sense. You will end up following most of these rules automatically if you use common sense. Please try to think before you act. Don't act dumb; the definition of "dumb" is up to moderator discretion.
Smogon is an English website, so only speak English in the main chat. Keep other languages to PM. In other words, falam apenas em Inglês and hable en Inglés solamente.
No excessive use of CAPITAL LETTERS. It makes you look childish and the only attention you are going to get is negative attention. Additionally, overuse of characters like '!!!!!!!!!!' or '??????????' is not considered funny, so please do not do it.
the muting of someone just having fun.
Employ the conventions of standard written English. Nobody is going to jump down your throat if you make a spelling mistake or split an infinitive, but please, your posts MUST be readable. As you might imagine, l33t 5p34k and other intentional misspellings (u, liek, etc.) are expressly banned. Spell out "you" and "your" instead of typing "u" or "ur." Don't be lazy!
So you're saying that typing backwards is against the rules?

I'll try harder in the future to find invisible rules, continue on with your witty pokemon talk.
EDIT: Still do not see anything about typing backwards.
And to answer your unasked question about the site i frequent, PKZ.
EDIT #2: None of this matters, PO server isn't full anymore.
Hi
I'm sorry did you pay to access pokemon online? Smogon?
Why should you have any rights? If a mod wants to, he can ban or kick you for no reason whatsoever. And there is nothing you can do about it. Because you have no right to be on this simulator that you payed no money for, on this server that you payed no money for. If he doesn't want you there, you're gone, and you can fuck off and not bitch about it on the forum.
Hauter has contributed to the tiering of the fourth gen, takes time out of his day (for no pay) to moderate the forum and the server. He has written countless posts ensuring that smogon has the highest quality team rating service available.
Now please tell me what the fuck you have done to help the smogon machine. Why you deserve to not be muted by a mod.
It's this sense of entitlement that always astounds me.
I don't contribute to the "smogon machine" and I know that.This post made me laugh so hard. Your arrogance astounds me.
Oh, and you must be contributing to the "smogon machine" a lot, huh? Your post count is almost as high as mine.
I don't contribute to smogon machine and I know that.
I'm okay with that.
I'm not the one bitching about being muted by a mod. I don't think I "deserve" anything from smogon, unlike our dear friend Skastope.
Don't talk about post count.
Fixed. That way there's no way we'll have to read it.Jesus guys, quit it. Take it to a PM if you have to. But don't just sling insults at each other. It has gone a long way off topic and there isn't really anything more to say.
