RULES AND BANNERS ((READ ME!!!))

[Masquanade]

Welcome to the Band Nerd Guild!
((DO NOT PM ME! I, Masquanade, am no longer captain of the Band Nerd Guild; however I am still a mod. Do NOT PM me about joining the guild, look in the upper right corner where it says "Join Guild." If you have any questions, concerns, or comments: please see the Administration Sticky.))

This guild is for all those band nerds out there in this big Gaia world. But it's not just for band nerds, it can be for any music lover (even if you don't play an instrument). This guild offers many things from role playing, music and instrument discussion, thread games, band stories, and much more! I hope old members of the preGGN and new members can come and make a new guild.

Rules
1. No Repeat Threads and Moving Threads
1A. Moving Threads
Our guild has subforums, and as such we would love for you to post in the respected forum. This allows for discussions of a certain thing in a certain area. However if you post in a the wrong subforum two things may happen: 1.) Your thread will be locked, and a moderator will ask you to move your discussion to the correct subforum. 2.) Your thread will simply be moved, without warning, to the correct forum.

1B. Repeat Threads
We used to be super a**l about repeat threads, but no longer. The only repeat threads we do not allow our those retaining to instrument specifics. For example threads like: "FLUTES HERE!" "WHO PLAYS THE TRUMPET?!" So forth. We already have Stickies for all instruments, and we would like if you would please respect those stickies. Also we may also lock your thread if we already have plenty of threads on the topic.

1C. Forums
There seems to be some confusion about forums so let me explain what each subforum is for:
Woodwinds/Brass - For Discussion strictly on woodwinds and brass
Percussion/Guard - For Discussion strictly on percussion, and guard.
Marching/Concert Band - For discussion strictly on marching and concert band
Regional - For things happening in a specific region. Doing a parade? Trying out for a certain clinic? So forth? These things belong in the regional forum.
Chatterbox - Strictly for NONBAND RELATED and Game threads. Everything else- belongs else where.
Concert Discussion - For Discussion on Concert (nonmarching) Band
Orchestra/Chorus/Misc - For Discussion on Orchestra, Chorus/Singing, and any other misc type of thing you can think of.
Media - For you to post up your videos, music, pictures, so forth.
Forum of Rock - For Discussion on Rock/ Garage Bands, and rock music in general.

2. Be nice. No flaming. No stupidity. Common Sense Rules
This applies to bashing other sections and/or instruments. No posts or threads will be allowed that negatively degrade another section. Such as saying "TROMBONES SUCK" will result in either your post/thread being deleted, you getting a PM to warn you, and if the problem continues we shall ban you from the Guild.

3. Follow the Gaia TOS.
We can, personally, can get banned if any members break the TOS. We've never in the past have had a problem like that. Also DO NOT POST LINKS TO DOWNLOAD LICENSED MATERIAL! Basically don't post links to download music/MP3s that's licensed. Now then if you're posting an audio file of you playing or an original piece you composed, by all means please do (we like that), but do not post links to download music that's been licensed.

4. Any questions, concerns, and comments you can either post in the Administration Sticky
This can be about why a thread was locked. If you created a new banner. If you just hate the rules. If you want to know upcoming features for guilds. If you have any questions about Gaia in general- I get this a lot- like how to signatures and what are guilds. Don't worry I'll answer any question to my best ability. PLEASE DO NOT PM ME.

5. Submitting banners.
We have extended rules on submitting your own Band Nerd Guild banners under own banner section. (Just scroll down a few posts.)

Banners
These are banners to use for your sig. We have a good selection and you can use whichever you like. I plan on adding more and members are welcome to make banners of thier own.

About Submitting Your Own Banner
We love when our members make us banners for the guild. There are a few rules that you have to follow:
1. You must use your own image hosting. Do not ask us to put it up somewhere for you. There are sites like photobucket, but also sites like imageshack.us where you're not required to create a username and it won't waste bandwidth on your photobucket accounts.
2. If you decide to delete your banner off your image hosting site, the banner will be taken down. The image link you send us, is the image link we use. Once again: I recommend using imageshack.us if you do not wish to forever host a banner on your personal image hosting.
3. Once you have completed your banner and would like it posted in this thread, PLEASE POST IT IN THE ADMINISTRATION STICKY! Please do not PM it to me. It'll be posted faster if all the mods of the guild have access to it.
4. If you have no banner making skills, but still would like to contribute to our banners, you can. You can commission a banner maker, but please provide the name of who made your banner when you submit it. Or you can team up with a friend. We'll gladly put both names up as the makers.
