Note: I asked for permission to airah4.
It's not AAA related, but it affects shippings to the U.S. and... just read the entry and you'll understand.

Americans in Japan who were thinking of mailing holiday presents to their family members in the States are going to have some trouble this year. Japan Post has enacted new restrictions that ban the mailing of packages that weigh over 453 grams (16 ounces / one pound):
( announcement )

This affects every package sent to the U.S. if its weight is higher than the limits.
So if you live in the U.S. and order something, remember about this.
No info about how long this is going to last.

rule 2. no lurking Try not to be just a lurker! Communities are meant for everyone to enjoy and participate in together!

rule 3. one entry please That being said, if you have created a Dreamwidth account for use on this community, make sure to add at least one journal entry to it. It can literally be anything you want. But doing this will not only make it more apparent that you're not just a lurker, it will also prevent your journal from being deleted by Dreamwidth.  (After a set period of time, Dreamwidth will permanently delete empty journals.) Plus it's fun to meet new people and add friends on your journals!

rule 1. credit original sources Please try to credit original sources whenever you share something here. Likewise, if you find something here and want to share it elsewhere, please try to credit this community. If someone posts something and asks that it not be reposted elsewhere, please respect their wishes. As mentioned in a former mod post, we as a community will not be crediting second sources anymore, after the trouble it has caused in the past.

rule 2. use a cut If you know your post is going to be overly large, please use a cut! You are also expected to use a cut if you are sharing multiple videos or animated GIFs in the same post. For those of you who do not know how to put content under a cut, here is an example: <cut>CONTENT HERE</cut> You can also use the cut button when posting a new journal entry, just like on Livejournal.

rule 3. no hotlinking Please do not hotlink! We don't want to see our bandwidth exceeding itself because of too much hot-linking! And I'm sure other members who share content will feel the same way!

rule 4. only AAA related posts You may post whatever content you like, from requests to updates to personal artwork, etc. As long as it has to do with AAA.

rule 5. tags Please view the tag list and try to tag entries according to that tag list. If you need help, let any of the mods know!

rule 6. requests Before requesting something, make sure your request has not already been fulfilled in someone else's post!

rule 7. downloads If you decide to share any downloads, please lock the entries to to members only. You may also lock whatever other types of posts you wish to lock. Thank you for understanding.

rule 8. advertising NO ADVERTISEMENTS. They tend to clog up the pages! If you want to advertise or affiliate, please post in the Affiliates post first. Once we've seen what you want to advertise, we'll give you clearance on whether it can be advertised or not!

rule 1. no fighting Respect your fellow members and your admin. No fighting with anyone for any reason. Harassment of any kind will not be tolerated. We will have a "three strikes, your out" system, which will work in the following way: 1st offense: You will receive a warning 2nd Offense: You will be banned from the community for one day 3rd Offense: You will be permanently banned from the community Though friendly debate is certainly welcome, there is no reason to be hurting another member, right? If you feel like someone is picking on you or likewise that you're unfairly being accused of picking on someone else, please let one of the admin know the situation.

rule 2. no other nasties No spamming, flaming, or trolling of any kind will be allowed either. We want to keep this place nice and tidy.

rule 3. general posting Try to post often, okay? Since all fans of AAA are welcome here, it would be nice for all of us to communicate with each other about why we love this group! Let's enjoy AAA together! ^_^
