HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Ursa Minor Beta -- home to the HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy.
Ursa Minor Beta is, some say, one of the most appalling places in the known Universe. Although it is excruciatingly rich, horrifyingly sunny, and more full of wonderfully exciting people than a pomegranate is of pips ... - HHGTTG.

Don't Panic.

Since some people can't play nicely, I'm going to put up a few rules. These should go without saying, but apparently, they can't.

Rule 1: Posts should be on-topic. What's considered on-topic? The HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Like the novels? The movie? The new movie? The audio version? That can be shared. Named your cat after one of the Vogons? That's pushing it, but acceptable. Like bread? Share it elsewhere.

Rule 2: DO NOT SPAM. If you post something that I consider spam, it will be deleted, marked as spam, and the user will be removed from the community AND reported to LJ admins for spamming. Chains, adverts for other communities that are NOT hitch-hiker related, etc. will be considered spam. READ THIS NOW: THIS IS YOUR WARNING. Banned users will be encompassed in a Slo-Time envelope which will only be opened after the rest of the universe has hit the Gnab Gib.

If you are not sure if it's spam, you have two options: (1) Don't post it, or (2) email me - my email is my username at livejournal(dot)com and ask. Put "Ursaminorbeta question" in the subject. Use your common sense, people!

Rule 3: I make the final decision on banning and deletion. Do not go into my private LJ if you have a complaint. If you simply must tell me off and let me know what you think, email me (freckles42 (at) livejournal (dot) com) with the subject "re:[insert community name here]". Thanks.

Rule 4: Please do not make introduction posts. If you have something to share, share it. You don't have to tell us that you're new, or that it's your first post to the community. We're all nice people and very welcoming, and all intro posts do is fill up peoples' friends pages.

Rule 5: Please, no uncut images. The LJ-cut is your friend! Pictures are fun to share, but they can clog and break peoples' friends lists. If your image is larger than icon size (or if you're sharing more than three icons), please employ an lj-cut. If you don't know how to do one, please take a look at Livejournal's FAQ. Thanks!

We have a new sibling community: hitchhikermovie, specifically for discussion of the new movie.

Thanks, and happy chatting!
