BE THE BOOKER SECTION RULES
One BTB a month:
The first and most important rule is pretty self explanatory; you can only have one BTB, and once you are finished with that for whatever reason it may be, you have to wait one month before starting a new BTB. There are no exceptions to this rule, so you can’t have two BTB’s with one being single and one being partnered; only one BTB. It doesn’t get much simpler, and if you do break this rule, the thread will be closed until the thirty days are up, and if you have two BTB’s, you have the opportunity to choose which BTB you write, but there are to be no two BTBs written at the same time.
PPVs to be posted in one part:
In the past, PPVs have been posted in two and sometimes three parts, but from now on, the only exception to this rule is if the show is too large for the one post, which you should state at the start or end of the second post. The ‘drama and suspense’ factor complete and utter shit and it is an unnecessary bump for the thread. Clearly label that the post was too big for the one post, or the posts will be merged. Simple, really.
Reviewing:
The old method of Best Match/Worst Match was the lazy way out and wasn’t a help at all, and anyone who denies that is delusional tbh. So, as has been the case for the past couple of months, but it needs to be pointed out, comments on each part of the show are required. Flaming and asking for reviews is unacceptable, which leads onto the next two points.
Flaming:
Constructive criticism is of course welcomed, but only if it is helpful and not issued in a flaming way. If there is a flaming post, it will quite simple be deleted and a warning will be issued. Also, if you are dealt constructive criticism, there is no reason to retaliate, as after all, if it is criticism, they’re just trying to help.
Cheap Plugs:
Although it hasn’t been done too many times in the past few months, just like the old review system, cheap plugs are on the way out. For those who don’t know, ‘cheap plugs’ are writing in a review ‘RAW is posted in my thread. Check it out’. The posts will simply be edited; JMay made the advertisement thread for a reason. Use it.
Chatroom:
The Chatroom is not to be used for advertising purposes. This is where you bookers can share your thoughts on certain storylines, or share queries on plans for the future. This thread is not to be used for things such as ‘Hey, I started a Cena and Orton feud in my thread _______, check it out and tell me what you think!’, as this thread is to be used for questions only, such as ‘Do you think a tag team consisting of Elijah Burke and MVP will work?’.
BTB Lounge:
This is where the nominations for any future awards will be posted, as well as any columns/tournaments. A partner request thread may be added in the Chatroom in the future, but for now, if you want a new partner, simply create a new thread and ask. It is not to be posted in the regular BTB section for threads, but rather in the lounge.
Bumping:
Also quite simple. Don’t make a post asking for reviews, use the advertisement thread to say your new show is up. Also, there is to be no posting a preview and posting the show an hour later, nor ‘Thanks for the comments man, appreciated.’ Posts like this will be deleted.
Deceased Wrestlers:
There are to be no modern day threads with the inclusion of Eddie Guerrero, Umaga etc. If you want to use Eddie, go ahead and make a thread {oshit poetry} which is based after No Mercy in 2005. Also, if you do not wish to use the likes of Chris Benoit for obvious reasons if starting a thread after WrestleMania 23, then that is quite obviously fine.
No E-Feds:
The most simple there is. There’s an E-Fed section for a reason.
And the last two rules, which are my personal favourites.
Enjoy: Woot.
AND~!
As per popular demand;
NO GARDS~!
K, maybe not >_>.
