For all of our returning users, I just wanted to put the new community rules up, since I know that usually you don't glance at the user info. (I don't really ever look at the user info in communities I've been in for a while.)

I figured this would probably be the easiest way for everyone to see what's new and updated.

1. Any post made in the CSI community must be related to one of the three shows. All posts that do not relate to CSI will be deleted. Fanfic is not permitted. You may link to a fic, but not post it directly to the community. Requests for and links to episode torrents or downloads will be deleted without explanation.

2. Regarding Icons: All icon posts to this community must have at least five icons pertaining to CSI or the actors. All teasers must be of CSI related icons. Icon posts containing icons from the newest episode should not contain teasers until the Saturday following a new episode. Do not link back to a site that is members or friends only. All icon posts that do not meet this criteria will be rejected or deleted by a moderator.

3. Regarding graphics: All graphics (wallpapers, color bars, banners, etc.) must be put behind an lj-cut, and only CSI graphics are allowed.

4. Before you post a question to the community, do a bit of research and see if the answer hasn't been given before. Questions such as 'who plays Catherine Willows' can and should be Googled to find the answer.

5. Community promotion should be kept at a minimum and must be promoting only CSI related communities or websites as long as they are completely different from our own community. Think 7-up vs Coke rather than Pepsi vs Coke. It would be silly for us to help promote a community that is exactly the same as this one. If at any time the moderators feel you've advertised more than enough, we will start deleting repetitive posts. If your advertisement includes graphics, please place them behind an lj-cut.

6. To avoid confusion on what must be behind an lj-cut, here it is outlined: We are spoiler free for one whole season. This is to give our friends overseas the chance to see the episodes. This means that anything pertaining to season 7 must be behind an lj-cut until season 8 starts. If you are completely new to the fandom, please do not expect anything from seasons 1-6 to be located behind an lj-cut. All spoilers, whether they be from Ask Ausiello, Kristin on E! or just your own speculations must be behind an lj-cut. Icon posts exceeding five icons total must be behind an lj-cut. Any long polls or quizzes with graphics must be behind an lj-cut. If you are posting spoilers or rumors, please warn members accordingly.

7. During the regular new season, this community is on full time moderation. During the summer we do take off full time modding, but we will monitor for posts that are inappropriate.

8. Every Thursday night of a new episode, there is a discussion post. Any and all comments, theories, and speculations must be made at that post during and after a new episode for three days. If you make a post concerning an un-aired episode, it must be behind an lj-cut.

Random nick cuts inspired by the pictures posted by Bluna81. Use as icons or as textless bases. If you add text or adjust any of my cuts, I'd like to see what you've done. I love seeing other people make creative leaps off of things i've made. No credit required, but if you want to give it, that's cool. Comments, loved, welcomed, adored and appreciated.
