I would add that forums should be at least a paragraph long or face deletion. I believe the old blog policy went similarly to this.

Hello! As many of you may know, we will soon be making changes to our forums. A community discussion has already started here. As proposed by yours truly in the comments section of that forum, there needs to be a clear policy about forums. Why? Well a clear policy would inform users what is appropriate and inappropriate for a forum. I have laid out a few general ideas out below.
- No advertising, spamming or soapbox content
- Forums should be related to one or more of the following:
- Related to the Halo Universe. In other words there shouldn't be forums talking about "what is the coolest weapon in Call of Duty?"
- Important announcements, such as proposals
- They should be easy to read and understand.
Of course this can be amended if need be.--Commander Spartacus (Tenth Roman Battalion) 17:02, 21 December 2011 (EST)
Comments
Please add any comments on what can be changed here, along with any opinions on this.
Also consider the rules for the three categories (or at least make separate rules for each category). :) — subtank 17:07, 21 December 2011 (EST)
