I think we can follow that up with other notes:

-THIS IS NOT THE SIMFILE/DWI/STEPMANIA FORUM
Countless newbies rush in asking about some particular something for StepMania or simfiles. First, spruce up on your reading because this is the DDR forum, not Dance Dance Revolution Simulation. I have kindly linked you to the correct forum at the least. Also take time to read the README that comes with StepMania in the first place. You can also do your simfile requests in said forum. Do not discuss about simfiles in here either.

-WE ARE NOT YOUR PERSONAL ASSISTANTS
Some people just like to lurk and then when something big comes up that interests them, they just make an account and post a thread demanding that info be sent directly to their e-mail inbox. First of all, publicly posting your e-mail address for a bunch of other people to see is just plain stupid. Especially if it's your e-mail that's linked to your Internet Service Provider (sup spam). Next, what makes you so high-and-mighty enough to give the information just for you? And what's to say that the person who was actually kind enough to e-mail you in the first place will actually give you the right information?
Let's just put it this way: read the damn threads. What we, the community, know about so far will be posted in the forums. They'll be typically in the first post of any thread, making it easier on everyone. So please, browse threads and search the forums beforehand.

Now for some basics:

-Common Sense, Please
Just, you know, pay attention or do some searching beforehand before posting. Also there's the occasional case where someone needs help with a feature of the game which can be easily and quickly solved by reading the manual.

-DON'T BUMP OLD THREADS
...UNLESS YOU HAVE TO. Don't go to the last thread in the last page for no reason. Only post in an old thread (threads around 2 weeks old and older) if you have relevant AND current information to post in. No, nobody will care if you post in some old poll that was somehow forgotten. Don't bother.

-DO NOT REQUEST SONGS
Don't ask where to download. We'll be happy to tell you where to buy it at though.

-HAVE A SOURCE
Your friend is not Konami. Your made-up somebody is not a gaming source. If you believe you found something worthy of note for the community, LINK TO IT. We don't want rampant posting sprees of DDR WHITE DWARF with zero sources about it.

-NO ONE-WORD/SMILEY POSTS
Self-explanatory. This will be considered as tokenwhoring and tokens will be taken away from you.
