I'm a long time lurker, and in every thread, I see at least 5 people get banned for image macros, useless post, and many other reasons too.
So, quick question, how can I keep everyone happy?
Do exactly the opposite of what you're doing right now.
Pants off head?
[QUOTE=fordzje;32598206]Pants off head?[/QUOTE]
Go for it
Don't make shit threads.
kinda like this one
Well, don't do what you see people getting banned for.
And use common sense.
Quick question, how do I quote text fine sir?
Don't post, it's too dangerous out there
edit: press reply and it'll do it for you

Or just press the reply button at the bottom right hand corner of their post.
Thank you, and /thread.
If you're going to make a thread that might is just asking a quick question, just ask it in an already existing thread. Or post the thread in FT.
Don't post.
Don't post stupid shit (memes etc.), don't flame, don't be an idiot and apply common sense to posting.
Before you post something, stop. Think about what you're about to post, don't post it and run away.
Yep, that worked for me so far.
send me pictures of your ass and i will assure that you wont get banned
Just be yourself!
[sp]Just kidding[/sp]
Don't post a certain kitty [sp]that cat[/sp] in a certain thread [sp]lmao pics[/sp]or you will be removed for a while.
With a bit of streetwise knowledge you too can become a shining beacon of good posting.
Like myself.
Be a good poster.
This is basically think before you post, and make sure you don't admit to warez.
Also, warez are fine to screencap, but don't tell anybody.
And be respectful to everyone, except bronies.
Just exercise the following precautions and you'll be just fine:
[release]1. [B]Carefully[/B] go over the rules section - read it through again and again until you have a clear understanding of what is permitted/disallowed. For the extra mile, consult others' posts that are ban-worthy to acquire a visual sense of things.
2. Be sure to think things through before posting a comment. Do not reply too hastily; analyze the contents of a particular thread or post before saying anything. Otherwise, trouble could unintentionally stirr up (depending on the situation in the given thread).
3. Demonstrate quality posting. Your writing should be thoughtful and well-written out whenever it is to be demanded.
4. Conduct yourself in a polite, courteous, and mature manner [I]at all times[/I]. Treat your administrator (Mr. Gabe Newell) and the fellow moderators with great respect (as well as for everyone else). Simply put: "Do unto others as they would unto you."
5. If an mistake has been made, be sure to readily appologize for [insert name of action] and acknowlege the incidence. For most people, they are far more inclined towards recepting forgiveness from an earnest individual rather than one who is an asshat. First impressions are lasting impressions - I certainly guarantee it!
6. As stated by others, [I][B]please utilize common sense at all times[/B][/I]. It is your friend, and an invaluable tool which can get you out of plenty of unwanted trouble.[/release]
I posted a small guide to surviving on Facepunch long ago...I don't remember what all I said at the time, but I think it went something like this...
1) When in doubt, don't post
2) Lurk more
3) Never start threads, unless you need help with something. In which case, make sure you PUT IT IN THE RIGHT SECTION
4) People hate anime. It's ok to have an anime avatar, but for the love of god do NOT start any threads on anime.
4a) People hate furries. Don't go around expressing your love for furries. See rule above.
5) When you need to search for something on Facepunch, go to google and type in "site:facepunch.com SEARCH TERM", without the quotes
I can't remember what else there was
Look at my ban history for a full in depth guide of what not to do.
[QUOTE]1. This rule list is not total, the excuse 'it wasn't on the rules list' isn't applicable. This is not a democracy.
2. Respect each other. Don't call each other names.
3. Don't reply to a thread just to say it's shit.
4. Don't troll. Don't reply to a thread about The Simpsons to say that Family Guy is better.
5. If someone does something wrong, report them. Flaming or attacking them will get you banned.
6. Don't reply to threads that are made with the intent of the user getting banned (ban me threads)
7. Nudity is fine. If you want to post pictures of an erect penis or penetration of any kind do not [img] tag it.
8. Don't post child porn.
9. Purposely breaking any of these rules with an alt account will get all your accounts permabanned.
10. Use descriptive thread titles. Things like 'Help' or 'Something I saw..' aren't descriptive.
11. Do not link, hint or talk about warez. Discussing games that you have pirated is fine - but we don't need to know that you pirated it, or where you pirated it from. Anyone that asks for links to pirated games will be banned.
12. Do not make parody threads.
13. If you're posting a link to a news story say why and/or state your opinion. Do not just post links.
14. Do not copy and paste new threads from a website.
15. Do not post things like 'I smell a ban' or 'this is against the rules' or 'wrong forum'.
16. Spell properly. This isn't GameFaqs.
17. Do not reply to threads just to reply. Replying with things like 'uh.. ya' or 'what' will get you banned.
18. If you're replying to a thread asking for help, HELP OR DO NOT POST.
19. Advertising your website is fine as long as it's relevant.
20. Don't steal stuff and claim it as yours. Don't use this rule as an excuse to bitch if you're not credited for your work. They need to claim that they made it.
21. Read the thread before replying. If you reply to a thread based on thread title you will get banned.
22. Don't make new threads to announce your birthday. No-one cares.
23. Don't make threads to get us to make up your mind about something ie 'Should I get a PS3 or XBox360?'. Make up your own mind. Don't use this rule as an excuse to flame people for making a thread to ask opinions ie 'What is the best MP3 player?'
24. Posting Image Macros will get you banned. It isn't clever. Just use words.
25. Replying with hilarious meme's like 'Stick it in her pooper' will get you banned.
26. Replying to threads like you were the guy they were talking about in the first post isn't funny.
27. Making obvious threads to earn ratings will get you banned.
28. DO NOT ACCESS THE FORUMS VIA A PROXY. If you're viewing the site through a proxy and you have the same IP as someone using that proxy to spam you will also get permabanned. I don't care if your school blocks the forums.
29. Don't make threads about how unfair your school is.
30. Don't make threads about religion, unless it's in a religion forum.
31. Don't make threads about dreams, unless it's in a dreams forum.
32. Don't make threads asking if your computer can run a game.
33. This is not an obituary forum. Don't post threads about how your relative/friend/cat died.
34. Blindly defend Facepunch, even when you know you're wrong.[/QUOTE]
Go by those and use common sense and you'll be good
Post in LMAO thread
Post this in lmao pics but in it's full size
