SHARENATOR TERMS OF SERVICE
In an effort to reduce the amount of spam, trolling, and offensive posts, Team Sharenator has come up with an updated Terms of Service. Soon it will be posted in a place where it can be seen from every page, but right now I will post it and update it here.
Posts and comments containing:
SPAM Links / any form of unsolicited advertisement (to other sites or spam sites)
Nudity
Animal sex
Graphic Violence
Offensive posts
Debates are ok, but rude, insulting, attacking, hateful, profane, threatening comments are not allowed. Be polite! Any offensive posts will be deleted.
Cheating
You are allowed to register multiple accounts (or novelty accounts) on Sharenator, as long as you use them fair. Use of multiple accounts to uprate your own content is not tolerated. Points generated this way will be removed either automatically by anti-cheat bot or by administrators. Cheating may result in a permanent ban.
Abusive downrating
Please downrate posts and comments only when you think they are inappropriate or when you genuinely don't like the content being posted.
Abusive downrating is:
When you start downrating for no other reason than to lower someone's point count
Blind downrating of every post and/or comment
Spam/advertisement of posts
Advertising posts or other websites in other peoples posts is not allowed. That's not what the response function is there for.
Very short comments that add no value and serve no purpose other than to up ones point count can be considered spam. Example: if you start randomly posting "cool", "I dunno" and similar comments in every post, your comments may be deleted.
Any posts that are also "reposts" will be deleted. It will only be deleted when a moderator confirms that it is in fact a reposted topic/picture/game/video.
"Bumping" posts by posting comments like "BUMP" will get instantly deleted".
Any posts or comments deleted by a Moderator should not be reposted regardless of what the post or comment contained.
ANY VIOLATION OF THE TERMS OF SERVICE MEANS THAT YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE TEMPORARILY SUSPENDED. REPEAT OFFENSES WILL RESULT IN AN I.P. ADDRESS BAN!
MODERATORS RESERVE THE RIGHT TO DETERMINE IF ANY POSTS OR COMMENTS VIOLATE THE TERMS OF SERVICE.

Sharenator is the best website for lols
Mod features are now active. If there is a post that you find objectionable, the report it, or if a mod sees it, it will be taken care of.
could we also add "post only in ENGLISH unless subtitled or similar." one particular poster continues to post stuff in spanish, and all people are asking is "english please".
I don't even think it's spanish. I thought it was French, but i dunno. All I know is that their posts remind me of batteries for some reason.
these comments are just silly on this post. the top ones are awesome
Report the ones in spanish, and they'll get taken care of.
i have and also dealt with some *cough*
i dont know if we should say or not. i think it should be the mod's personal opinion of wether they want people to know or not. I know who they are but for this reason, im not going to publish here.
U would be the perfect mod if ur not one already.
Yeah I am. That's why I know who they all are :)
and also, kinda under spam. No advertising, including linking to other websites when they have no DIRECT relevance to the post or comment.
That's kinda where this came from. Chances are BlinkBlink either won't know why his posts were deleted or he just won't give a shit and he'll continue to post them. Either way, if he reposts them, then they will continue to be deleted since there isn't anything more we can really do right now.
well with the amount of spam lately, I thought I'd bump this up...
Update:
Cutting a watermark off of an image, taking somebody elses name off of it, or replacing it with your own is not allowed. Anybody violating this rule will be instantly banned, this is a warning to everybody.

This should help clean up around here. Good to see.
thank you paul and thank you drarius i really hope that people follow these rules and thank you wrapped for posting this for the rest of us to see.
If someone is cheating, Paul and Darius have an algorithm that will inform them of any suspicious point raises. If one brand new account is uprating nothing but one person's posts and comments, it will show up.
thank you i was annoyed to discover then when i try to look at the new unrated posts i am greeted nay flooded with many single posts about laptop batteries that i simply dont care for if i want to look up laptop batteries i'll google it or similar for the brand of my laptop so these new terms of service will hopefully sort out that problem in the near future :) i'm sure i'm not the only one annoyed by those posts :)
I can see at least one loophole, what if someone wants to see another member get banned and decides to use a different computer to make a TON of accounts. Instead of constantly downrating that person, all they would have to do is uprate and the poor guy getting uprated would be blamed for cheating without actually doing anything. And the person who made all the other accounts can still remain completely anonymous.
I think Paul and Darius said something about the cheat detection system also identifies IP addresses. Either way, its a lot harder to cheat and get away with things now.
Then the damage will be repaired. The extra accounts will just be deleted and the points given will be reset to what they were before.
I know this is an old(ish) post but I have a valid point. Most people have dynamic IPs. Most of the time you have to pay extra for a static IP. So even on the same network you could log different IPs. You might want to take that into account.
Commenting on this just so it gets bumped... people need to see this on the front page
Updated the TOS about posts containing Graphic Violence (as per IDeidaraIKun's suggestion)
eehh bacon, and we also add "No Bumping". I have seen too many comments where they just say "Bump". even on this post. I think its another type of content that yields no value to anyone, and just P--s people off.
aha, just saw this finally. Updated.
read this twice to make sure I understand everything, yet I don't know what a "novelty account" is. Anyone care to explain that?
I think the last one someone made was "Satan" or something like that, and he went around trying to kill all twilight fans xD
Sir you'll need to contact our Customer Services division. Please provide your account number, Social Security number, Full name (as well as mother's maiden name) and any banking information you may have used and I can ASSURE you that you won't have to worry about your funds and account anymore. ;)
Yo what the fuck are you smoking bro lol
Commenting on a post for the purpose of bringing it back up to the top of the front page.
Kinda like what you did to this post.

all your comments were links to other sites. it is not meant for that. We really dont need those anymore.
I see and thank you for the fast response, but...How about this post:www.sharenator.com/I_HAVE_FOUND_THE_BEST_PROXY_EVER/
May I make one like him and if "yes", under what conditions?

There is a difference between advertising other sites and trying to steal this site's traffic, and asking a question.
Pretty much if you expect to make posts on this site and advertise your site/blog, expect to get deleted.

Well we really dont need a post for proxies or other sites unless someone asks what some good ones are. When he posted that people were wondering becuase it was blocked by some places. I dont know if it is still true but if someone asks you can tell them but other than that i dont feel like it would be like a good thing to post.
Thanks for the clarification guys. Especially the clause about how debating is fine, but hateful antics are no longer going to be tolerated.
And just 'cus:
