Blades-Heaven :: Rules
Welcome to Blades-heaven.com!
Our goal is not to become another Bytemonsoon or Suprnova (not dissing either of them though). The goal is to provide the absolutely latest stuff. Therefore, currently all users have permission to upload torrents. If you have access to 0-day stuff do not hesitate to contact us!

This is a private tracker, and you have to register before you can get full access to the site. Before you do anything here at Blades-heaven we suggest you read the rules! There are only a few rules to abide by, but we do enforce them!

Before you go any further you should read the Blades-heaven user agreement.

Main

  • Do do not defy the owners expressed wishes!
  • If you have no intention of downloading a torrent,there is no need to comment on it,especially flaming.One persons bad quality is anothers satifactory.
  • If you have been warned by a MOD it is very unlikely that an admin or sys-op will overrule the decision.If you feel you have been harshly treated,contact the mod that warned you first.
  • Only 1 account per IP,dupe accs will be disabled and the worst account kept and warned. If you require a 2nd acc PM a member of staff first.
  • Use your invites wisely,any account abused by a member,then the invitee may be held responsible aswell. Cheating you ratio is totally unacceptable,our anti-cheat script will pick you up,and you will be summarily banned without warning!



  • Torrent Comments

  • If you are spotted spamming the torrent comments section or being abusive in any manner then you will be liable to have the rights to post comments disabled. Depending on the severity your account may even be disabled. Spamming includes the shoutbox and irc rooms!



  • Signup Email Accounts

    At the moment free email accounts have been reinstated but we reserve the right to remove them again in the future from signup.


    Account Use

    All user accounts must be used at least once a month.Failing to do so will mean the tracker deletes your account with 7 days warning before it deletes the account.

    Avatar & Signatures - Top

    Guidelines

  • The allowed formats are .gif, .jpg and .png. Be considerate.
  • Resize your images to a width of 150 pixels x150 pixels and a size of no more than 150 KB. Signatures are not allowed any bigger than 350 pixels x125 pixels.(Browsers will rescale them anyway: smaller images will be expanded and will not look good; larger images will just waste bandwidth and CPU cycles.)
  • For now this is just a guideline but it maybe automatically enforced in the near future.
  • Do not use potentially offensive material involving porn, religious material, animal/human cruelty or ideologically charged images. MODs have discretion on what is acceptable. If in doubt PM one.
  • DO NOT ADVERTISE/SPAM within signatures!

     
    Uploading - Top

    General

  • You must have the legal rights to the file you are uploading and to share it.
  • It is essential to be responsible with your bandwidth. If you have an average upload speed of 256kb/s(30kB/s),you are best to only upload one file at a time,regardless of size,until it has at least a couple of seeders.
  • It is not a requirement to upload files here,but if you do,we ask you not to use your bandwidth elsewhere when uploading a torrent,this is to ensure your full upload speed can be committed to the torrent you have uploaded.
  • Bear in mind that a large file,such as a dvd/r can take up to 48hrs to seed propperly,this is a big commitment,and you must be willing to accept this if you upload.
  • Any torrent without a seed and on the tracker longer than 7 days will be deleted by staff,3 unseeded torrents and your right to upload will be removed.
  • Any torrents found by staff with ridiculous upload speed will also be deleted,and again,your right to upload removed.
  • All uploads must include a detailed description. Please refer to topic: Poor descriptions No nasty files! All files must be in a legitimate format so they are functional.
  • Pre-release stuff should be labeled with an *ALPHA* or *BETA* tag.
  • Make sure not to include any serial numbers, CD keys or similar in the description (you do not need to edit the NFO!).
  • Make sure your torrents are well-seeded in the first week of uploading.If you need to turn your pc OFF at please do so as we can not stop you from doin this
  • Do not include the release date in the torrent name.
  • Make sure you torrent goes in the right group,if you dont know what a scene release is,then it goes in the user section


  • NO FAKES
    NO KIDDY PORN -(We will pass on details of any user posting this)


    Scene / Repack?

    Don't know if the torrent is a scene release read this.... http://blades-heaven.com/forums.php?action=viewtopic&topicid=763&page=last#3501 Generally DO NOT REPACK a scene release! If repacked make sure you state it in the description. If its a self rip then please state that in the description/nfo too!

    Staff Rules - Top

    Forum Posting

    Staff are to be as active throughout the site as much as possible and to create and answer posts in the forums. The one thing you SHOULD NEVER do is mention your position, it may change or you may resign etc and it looks bad. It also opens you up to abuse and can look quite SAD!


    IRC and Shoutbox

    Staff to idle in #help and generally assist anyone that needs help. It is also all staff's responsibility to keep the Shoutbox clean and active. Chat in IRC and again be firm but friendly. Remove announcements in shoutbox.


    Site Maintenance

    Again ALL staff are to monitor files and edit when required. Any user/uploader to politely reminded if links/spam is accidently uploaded and if repeated formerly warned. Forums to be cleaned out/locked/archived when they become dead. <
