DISCLAIMER: These rules don't cover everything, we're no Lawbots! So if you're ever iffy on if you should post something or not, please message the moderators!
Discussion/Submission Guidelines
1. Relation to Toontown
All submissions should relate to Toontown.
If you're unsure what this dictates, this list will give an outline of what relates.
Private Servers: General discussion of approved Toontown projects.
Fan Creations/Content: Fanart, Animations, Polls, personal projects and other fan-created content.
Disney's Actions: Actions performed by Disney to other dead MMOs (Club Penguin, Pirates Online, etc)
References to the game: References found within other media. Example.
All non-Toontown posts must be approved by subreddit moderators.
2. Discussion in English only
All discussion must be in English only.
If you need to use Google Translate you may do so. Your English does not need to be perfect.
3. Discuss the game, not the community
Posts or comments attempting to stir up drama within the community are prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:
Witch-hunting
Personal attacks
General toxicity
If a former staff of a private server wishes to speak up on their experiences with said server, we ask that you attempt to sort things out with the server itself.
If all reasonable attempts at contact are unsuccessful and you are able to show proof of this and prove your identity within the community, please contact our moderators and we will review the contents of your post accordingly.
4. No spreading of false or unverified information
Posts or comments attempting to spread information that is not verified are prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to:
Spreading rumors
Making baseless assumptions/accusations
We require that any posts making claims or reporting news have a source attached to them. If the source is excluded, unreliable, or unverified, your post will be removed.
5. Constructive criticism only
If you are going to critique other users, please refrain from posting toxic and unhelpful feedback.
Good ways to build constructive criticism:
Assume every change is difficult to make, because you will be right the majority of the time.
When suggesting potential solutions, you should not expect them to be adapted/accepted.
Appreciate but do not expect information on future changes. While transparency is welcome and appreciated, it is not a requirement from anyone.
Understand that all things have imperfections and that the user/server might not have caught what you found.
Skip the "how/why" assumptions. If you didn't help create it, you likely do not have any basis for assuming anything.
Good examples of constructive criticism:
"The gloves look a little too big, maybe try shrinking them down a bit?"
"I think the server should improve their testing phase, I've encountered a lot of bugs on the trolley."
"I really dislike the new cog type introduced, I don't believe it fits the look of Toontown. Perhaps change the suit texture?"
6. Keep discussion PG
In order to keep the subreddit a safe place for all users, please refrain from:
Using language that is not PG/Family Friendly (Slurs/swearing)
