allkpop's Forum Rules
The allkpop forums are a platform where fans can interact and discuss all things kpop, jpop, kdramas, anime and more. Posting on the allkpop forums is a priviledge, not a right. In order to retain this priviledge, the following rules must be adhered to.
The Rules

- Post in appropriate sections and use proper descriptive thread titles.
- No hate speech, racism, sexual harrasment, and posting of graphic imagery, or pornography.
- No advertisting of any sites.
- Excessive hostility can lead to one day bans and possible further action.
- Do not abuse the reporting system, as abuse of such will lead to diciplinary action.
- No doxxing or revealing PID of members or staff.

The Skinny
- Don't Sh*t where you eat.
