How about the signature rules?
Too many gifs. Or gifs that are large enough to impact server performance may be removed.

Thanks for finding these, Shian.
I've added the last two as 'helpful threads/answers' under the General category. I didn't add the first since it's talking about large GIFs (and how they can't remove all images that are 'GIFs'), however, it's not really saying anything about GIFs being removed, unfortunately. I'll try and find something about that, though, and see if I can get a clearer result.

Ah, well the answer doesn't really make sense unless you know the question. The question was about having too many large gifs in your signature or so many of them that they impact someone else's computer's performance. Tess' answer was, If they become a problem, they can be removed. I have no idea how to word that so that it makes the most sense. I also linked to the wrong post. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1177713&p=33944623&hilit=gifs#p33594080 This one is it.

Hate topics or hate stickers in signature are not allowed.

How about the trade rule where you're not allowed to raffle any pet? I.E. Person A charges a 1 pet fee to get a pot of pets.

The first one will be added shortly(when Fat comes back from her break).
The raffle rule is included in the CS Free adoption rules, if I am not mistaken.

Can we get a list in writing from The Powers That Be about what certain words are or are not acceptable? I've had one mod tell me one thing, one tell me another, a third tell me yet a third, et cetera et cetera. 'Damn' and 'hell' seem to be okay but the things immediately stronger (such as 'ass' and 'crap') seem to be on shaky territory. I would REALLY like for it to be clarified once and for all.

Not sure if there's a more in depth list; wish I could easily search but doing things on my phone is kinda tricky xD;

[Panne]

I'll talk to a staff member about acceptable terms (in addition to the link posted) c:

Thanks so much y'all! Tess's post seems great, I just want it to be added to the list and more readily available. Pretty sick of getting my posts edited because I said something along the lines of "I couldn't give a rat's ass" when the word is used in that phrase and not in any way directed towards a CS member.

I sincerely apologize for the wait, I had to abruptly leave on holiday for two weeks and couldn't get access to the Internet until today. ^^;

I've added her post under the General category. If I can, I'll start asking around the mods or keyword search their posts and see what they say is un/acceptable. :3 But I think that's the usual guideline they go by.

I've added the first one under the General section, and the second one I won't add (the free adoption board rules don't have a specific rule against the raffle/1 pet thing, but they do have a overall rule about situations like those).

I've had a skim through the answer, and I agree that it should have been put up. It should be up under the General section now.

Again, thanks guys for digging up the links or suggesting something should be added, it's much appreciated! <3
