Threads unrelated to dAmn will be closed

This is not a general topic forum. Threads need to be limited to questions/comments/suggestions about the deviantART Messaging Network. Final decisions on the validity of a thread will be made by the dAmn Administrators.

NOTE: For complaints about dAmn, please use the Help Desk, as it may be something we can remedy and this will allow us to have a record of your concerns.

Do not post threads advertising your chatroom

You may only advertise your chatroom in this forum if replying to an official thread created for that purpose by a member of the MN@ Team (members with a @ by their name).

Threads requesting help on making a bot or using non-supported add-ons are prohibited

Please contact the creator of the add-on or bot for assistance.

Threads solely for the purpose of harassing, arguing with staff, or inciting anti-administrative activity are prohibited and the violators will face administrative action on their account.

The forum is not the place for admin complaints - use the Help Desk.

Attacks on another deviant, rudeness, harassing commentary, and trolling will result in administrative action up to and including banning from official channels in dAmn, and banning from the site.

These rules may be added to as the need arises, and in no way are limiting. They're all common sense, and we hope that everyone who visits the dAmn forums will have a fun experience.
