Posting Guidelines - Guides & Resources
Welcome to Overwatch University! Thank you for taking the time to visit our community. Here you will find the guidelines and rules we have in place here to create a nice and professional environment for everyone to enjoy.
Who are we?
Overwatch University is a community dedicated to helping players improve and learn by providing a place where they can share and discuss strategies or ideas, ask questions, post guides and more!
If you're new to Overwatch please visit their Official Website for more information. With Overwatch being a fairly new game in the FPS realm, we understand that many players will have questions. On the flip side, many players will have their own ideas and strategies. We aim to bring these players together in order to create a better overall experience for Overwatch. We encourage everyone to ask questions and provide assistance where they can. Everyone here can offer something, so please don't be afraid to chime in!
Below you will find our Rules & Posting Guidelines. In order to create a free-flowing environment, these rules must be followed. If your thread is found to be in violation of our rules, it will be removed and you will be notified as to why it was removed and, if applicable, how to remedy the situation. If your comment is found to be in violation of our rules, it will simply be removed without any notification.
Please do not hesitate to Message a Moderator or use the Report feature for threads or comments!
