In this group, we will focus in the photos and videos or more media topics, as armor looks, character creation and more, come join us and show us your character and which profession or any videos!! This is a place to chill out with your family and friends regardless of age group they are in!

II. Teddy Bears Staff & Regulations:
Teddy Bears [PAWS] is a PvX Casual-Hardcore no representation, no age and no region required guild. With that said, the following below are what I like to put as "common sense rules". If you adhere to common sense every day at your job, home and with friends and never got into trouble then you won't have to worry about it. However, humans make mistakes and it's natural to be wrong sometimes. So please direct a few minutes of your attention to the following rules and regulations to briefly become accustomed to them.

When creating an account name the following must be considered:

• Objectionable Language (racist, profanity, derogatory, sexual content)
  
• Names that have been created that are deemed inappropriate will be asked to be removed by a Forum staff member. (i.e Foreskin)
  

ii. Excessive Begging - Absolutely not allowed.

iii. Harassment/Spam - Depending on the level of severity, different consequential situations might occur from these violations. Everywhere you go, you will find a ZERO-TOLERANCE POLICY, basically stating that under no circumstance is spamming or harassment overlooked in our communities nor will it be tolerated.
Methods of harassment include (but not limited to):

1. Repeatedly Private Messaging PMS-Aggressive content
   
2. Whispering someone In-Game and forums with threats
   
3. Massive Insulting here or proven elsewhere.
   

iii-A. Flaming - Absolutely not allowed. Offensive posts such as Flame baiting or those that violate the rules or Terms of Service will be removed without warning

iv. Admin Impersonation & Tooling - Claiming to know or be a Staff Member In-Game, and using them to gain an edge in an argument (i.e. I know... And he'll/she'll ban you) is Staff-tooling, and will be dealt with a high grade punishment.

v. Administration Disrespect -

• Severe disrespect toward any Staff member may result from a warning to a ban depending on how serious the disrespect was at given situation.
  
• Remember that the staff are volunteers. They commute to help you on their own time. There should be no reason for staff disrespect whatsoever.
  
• Should you have any problem with Staff, talk to a moderator-approved community volunteer.
  

vi. Hacking - Using any form of third party software, or exploiting any In-Game bug-to get an advantage over this forum, Group pages, C3, or in-game will result in a high grade punishment.

DON'T FORGET!

• Rules Apply to EVERYONE! Admins have the authority and RIGHT to modify; delete; or move any rule, or post at any given time.
  
• Everyone is equal, therefore all members should have equal respect when following the rules.
  
• Do not create your own community and add our members if you disapprove of our rules. If this community is not in par with your niche, then leave!
  
• We will ban anybody who violates these rules, or anybody that we see fit to ban. Bans are not to be discussed in public.
