I did some testing.
Seems that updating the Location field causes the user title to reset back to the default. I'm sure that applies to other fields in the profile as well.
OOPS, BETTER GET ON THAT, EH JEREMY? PUT THAT POCUTER SCIENCE DEGREE TO GOOD USE.

I don't think its a good idea to yell at a mod.
I don't think its a good idea to tell Mino what to do.

Nope. They're in the Museum.

Because the donator list was empty and the egyptian sarcophagi were all filled.
The Museum would be the section you're looking for. Fanfiction is perfectly welcome there as long as it's TBT appropriate.

Wait, who IS backseat moderating?
And honestly, I haven't found any official rules, but I think the main one is to use common sense on what you can and cannot do.
Seeing that this is a forum with few major rules, I find it impressively well-controlled and non-threatening. I think many of the members police themselves, but I find it annoying to see bickering amongst members who think its their duty to boss users around (telling them to post in a thread, then having another member make a speech about how you shouldn't "necro" an old thread). I'm not saying there's any need for a rule or any implementation -- just an acknowledge of any need to cut out all the silliness that involves youngsters and a non-structured forum. A simple guide that explains back-seat moderating and why it's annoying could be the answer, and I could write that up in ten minutes. Then whenever a user is harassed about following "the rules" they can either be pointed towards a set of rules or send my guide in a PM or visitor message to the harasser.
If there isn't a need, I'm sure that'd be explained to me. But seeing that you are not a moderator, I can be assured your answer shouldn't be accepted as the end-all, though it makes a good amount of sense to just use the gold rule of "common sense" as you say. But few people have "common sense."

oath2order is correct for the most part. We do not have published rules anywhere on the forum. It is mostly a common sense thing. Don't be disrespectful, don't spam, etc. If you are doing something wrong, we will usually PM you. This works primarily because we are a relatively small community.
That being said, as new members join in the coming months before New Leaf releases overseas, we will probably post some rules just to keep things under control.

So, everytime I post a disscusion on The bell tree writers guild, 3 copies of my disscusion are posted. Is that a glitch?
That's weird. Maybe you hit submit a few too many times? Either way, I deleted the duplicates for you.
Back-seat moderating is not really an issue in our eyes. If the mods cannot answer fast enough to explain the rules, members can help us out if they want to. If anything, we'll consider you as a possible staff candidate in the future. Don't over do it though, which I'm guessing is why you're complaining about it in the first place, which is totally relatable. If it bothers you that much, just ignore it.
