#### Log in**> Don't spam stuff in the comments**> , especially photos, gifs, or tweets/Insta posts. Or use a spoiler cut to save users from scrolling.****> Limit the use of gifs in your post**> . More than 20 big gifs will slow down browsers or eat up bandwidth. Maybe put a warning if your post has a lot of gifs so that those on mobile browsers don't use up all of their data.**> Don't delete/freeze comments in your own post**> If you are frequently deleting your own posts**> for whatever reason (not counting posts that include news already posted), you may have your posting privileges suspended.**> Trolls will be banned. Ban evaders will be banned**> (unless there is some exception unique to their situation).**> No posting of pornographic images**> , even it's manipulated/Photoshopped. There is a "film - adult" tag for news about porn, but it is up to the discretion of the mods on whether or not the post is acceptable. Even in posts about porn, there should be no posting of pornographic images.**> You may only have one username in ONTD at a time.**> If we find out you have more than one LJ username account here, at the very least, you will be asked to choose only one of your accounts and then remove the others from ONTD.**> Don't post pirated copies of books, music, movie/TV downloads, etc.**> Don't include long winded personal thoughts at the end of your post.**> Save it for the comment section.- **If someone has personally attacked you or said something offensive (racist, sexist, transphobic, homophobic, etc.), message a mod**. We don't go into every post so we can't always be on top of who's doing or saying what. We need your help.- Even ifyou didn'tinstigatea fight, you may end up getting warnedor even banned, too, if you respond withpersonal attacks.- If you have a concern over someone's icon, you may contact LJ Abuse.The same call, in code.
