We've recently put together an easy-to-read page of Forum Rules. These are rules that specifically apply to Egg Cave and its forums. This link is posted at the top of the Forums. We thought we'd put together this page to clear up any confusion regarding what is and is not allowed on the forums. Whilst the Terms are still the law of the land, the Forum Rules are much easier to follow. Ultimately, these guidelines are in place to make sure that Egg Cave remains safe and enjoyable for everybody! Thanks! :)

I'ma trying to fold 1000 paper cranes right now... The story goes, if you fold 1000 paper cranes you will be granted one wish.
icymuffin • 8 Nov 2011, 7:56 PM
The girl was Sadako Sasaki and the wish she wanted granted was that she could live.
libra • 8 Nov 2011, 7:59 PM
@IcyMuffin- I tried that once. I got up to 430 something, but I ran out of paper. βΉοΈ

"Posts discussing banned users' accounts " are not allowed? Can someone explain that?Like, talking about someone, like what they did&stuff;?
christened_moon • 8 Nov 2011, 8:13 PM
@taffy Yeah, pretty much. Basically no name calling when the person's gone. That's all.
ginna3525 • 8 Nov 2011, 8:17 PM
good night egg cave,
kiti • 8 Nov 2011, 8:39 PM
Yay! I don't really visit the forums but I'm sure this is good stuff. xD
glazzie • 8 Nov 2011, 8:42 PM
Sorry guys, but I agree with the No Bumping rule. It's sad when you click on a creature idea, look at the drawing and just post "Bump" βΉοΈ
silver_winged • 8 Nov 2011, 8:50 PM
Seems straightforward enough.
dreamer • 8 Nov 2011, 8:50 PM
@Glazzie Yes, but people don't ususally do that. There will be people who comment on it, and when the topic is at the bottom of the forums,-
dreamer • 8 Nov 2011, 8:51 PM
-a few people bump it. It's helpful, if bumping is banned, there will be a lot more topics that are duplicated so that they're back on the-
-forums again. So I think taking away bumps just adds twice as much spam.
cubexline • 8 Nov 2011, 8:55 PM
Finally, some rules xD I was getting sick of the SPAM posts >.<
whitefall • 8 Nov 2011, 9:15 PM
@dreamer - That's not true. People should know that NOBODY'S INTERESTED if they aren't getting posts. π
lizardfeather • 8 Nov 2011, 9:15 PM
I think some of the rules seem stricter than they actually are xD I think it means like 1 bump per day instead of 10 per minute π
lizardfeather • 8 Nov 2011, 9:16 PM
Or like you know, not excessively bumping @zac or is it just strict none at all?
balletninja • 8 Nov 2011, 9:40 PM
@whitefall @dreamer has a good point.
toy • 8 Nov 2011, 9:44 PM
@maximum_ride_forever Whoa .O. I wanted to do that, but yeah poor trees...
iulianna1 • 8 Nov 2011, 9:46 PM
Hmm... is it just me or are the Spam rules pretty strict? No excessive smilies? No bumps? :/
cubexline • 8 Nov 2011, 9:48 PM
I think the spam rules are fine xD
redfire77 • 8 Nov 2011, 10:17 PM
bwahjaja XD this cracks me up: Swear words (allowed words: gosh, stupid, crap, heck, dang, sucks)
redfire77 • 8 Nov 2011, 10:18 PM
and omigod YES 8D excessive punctuation. really. one exclamation/question mark is enough.
dragonkeeper • 8 Nov 2011, 10:21 PM
humm I usterstand about spaming but sometimes you need a bump like in trades
redfire77 • 8 Nov 2011, 10:30 PM
@dragon its kind of spamming, though, if you think about it. say something useful instead of a simple BUMP.
schwartz • 9 Nov 2011, 12:54 AM
@thursdays_storage HAHAHa I agree it really is stupid (not)
lilones • 9 Nov 2011, 1:22 AM
Anyone know what caused the no bump rule? Oh and there are plenty of rules they aren't making up so life ain't really bad folks
anori • 9 Nov 2011, 2:11 AM
I think those are very reasonable ^^
dionaea • 9 Nov 2011, 3:21 AM
Not bad, though it'll probably take some getting used to, it will probably improve the forums a lot. π
novrain62 • 9 Nov 2011, 3:24 AM
i make no comment - except that if there is no more bumping - than allow the post creator post an update to the forum thread instead having
novrain62 • 9 Nov 2011, 3:25 AM
to wait for someone else to post - i.e. my poetry contest - i don't want bumps, I only want poems, but thread gets buried so updates
novrain62 • 9 Nov 2011, 3:26 AM
get lost in the shuffle because thread creator can't post after his/her previous post which is plain nuts in my book. SO the need for bumpin
novrain62 • 9 Nov 2011, 3:28 AM
when I need to make an update, I ask for bumps - simply because I cannot do it myself if I am the last poster. make sense? thanks π
novrain62 • 9 Nov 2011, 3:30 AM
a month long contest does not get daily (replys) and poems get posted in previous (replys) so my thread is long buried away ... enjoy!!
lyricgeek • 9 Nov 2011, 4:09 AM
5 comments by novrain62 in a row xD
peppermintcowboy • 9 Nov 2011, 5:07 AM
@novrain - People can still bump... it's just that now they'll have to make long-winded half-hearted replies instead of being honest. π
evolutary • 9 Nov 2011, 5:42 AM
People used to say 'steal views' but then we were told it was spam. xD
evolutary • 9 Nov 2011, 6:02 AM
4 Clouds in the TA!
alraune3 • 9 Nov 2011, 7:53 AM
I really do like this one: "Excessive chat speak ? please use proper English for the sake of everyone's sanity!" π
hawk_fan • 9 Nov 2011, 8:07 AM
"Any talk that you would never say in front of or to your parents" was my faveorite π
yogurt • 9 Nov 2011, 10:54 AM
My Internet is down so I have to use a phone :c
maineen • 9 Nov 2011, 12:56 PM
YAY NEW BLOGπ no more bumping π± π oh well, but it will take some getting used to
maineen • 9 Nov 2011, 1:03 PM
oh and I got a kujak from the cave todayπ and I was thinking I wasn't going to get oneπ
bash_extras • 9 Nov 2011, 1:55 PM
@maineen So far I've gotten three extra Kujaks to give awayπ Which reminds me: my extra Halloween eggs are UFA at this time; check it out;)
maineen • 9 Nov 2011, 2:04 PM
@bash_extras good luck giving them to good homesπ
bash_extras • 9 Nov 2011, 2:24 PM
@maineen Thanks! π
maineen • 9 Nov 2011, 2:29 PM
@bash_extras ur welcome ^.^
turkishdelight • 9 Nov 2011, 3:25 PM
Thanks Ian! Rules are always necessary. π
fuzzydragon • 9 Nov 2011, 4:05 PM
Hello EggCave! Thanks Ian for the new rules π
glazzie • 9 Nov 2011, 4:33 PM
@Dreamer Sorry, but I disagree. Whenever I post an art topic, I always get bumps instead of "Nice Work" or "Cute Idea" However, yes.--
glazzie • 9 Nov 2011, 4:35 PM
-I do strongly agree with the issue of duplicate topics. It becomes irritating after about 15 topics by the same user with the same topic
