User Profile Policy
Your user page is the page where you can tell a little more about yourself.

For your own safety and security, your user page should not have the following things.

The more specific information you reveal about yourself, the easier it is for an identity thief to find out details about you. If you have enabled the "E-mail this user" function in your Preferences ("Enable e-mail from other users" on the main User Profile tab), you may want to use a different e-mail address than the one you used to sign up for your Wikia account. Gmail  and Yahoo are amongst the many companies that offer free e-mail account.
 * Your full name. Just put your first name or go by your User name.
 * Full names of your friends or relatives.
 * The school or college you go to, or your place of employment.
 * The city you live in.
 * Your birthdate.
 * Your age if you are less than 13 and fibbed about it in order to sign up for an account. This is a violation of the Membership section of Wikia's Terms of use.

Another User's Page
Editing another user's profile is considered impolite and should not be done without their permission. Changing spellings on their user page should not be done as the user may want it that way, and material should not be added or removed if you think it will look better, for the same reason. Exceptions include, but are not limited to: Correcting vandalism, To remove or fix a link/template. Fixing coding mistakes.

 * All users utilizing the forums are to be respectful of each other. Slander, harassment, and insults will result in lengthy blocks without question, and the offending post will be removed.
 * You can flag multiple topics in one thread. There is no need to post things repeatedly.
 * Keep the thread on topic as much as possible. Remember, you can always change to another topic and start a discussion there! Threads that go off topic excessively and for a long period of time will be considered spam, and may be closed due to it.
