New Attendee Guideline Policies

Weapons Policy

Wilkes Comic Con has a no weapons policy that will be enforced.  All weapons must be non-working and peace bonded. We will not allow functioning projectile weapons (i.e. including water pistols, silly-string guns, and ping-pong pistols), but things like foam nerf swords, and obviously fake laser guns that just make noise are allowed. Bladed weapons must be cased or sheathed at all times. No clowning around or showing off in the common areas. Any weapon used in an offensive manner will be confiscated and may result in expulsion from the con. Real firearms are not allowed at Wilkes Comic Con. We reserve the right to treat anything that looks like a real weapon as a weapon.  Attendees who choose to ignore this policy may be asked to leave the convention. We expect you to use good judgment, and if you have any questions about this rule please ask us so we can clear up any disputes. That is what we are here for.

Photo Policy

By entering Wilkes Comic Con you recognize that we reserve the right to take photos of members, merchandise, costumes, etc. for promotional and advertising purposes. We will not take any pornographic or inappropriate photos, and if any do somehow accidentally occur they will be deleted (if it is on a device that can delete photos) and not published.

Anti-bullying Policy

Any bullying, harassment, or discrimination of any kind (verbal, physical, emotional, etc.) will not be tolerated. Disagreements, discussion, and freedom of speech are all supported at this con, but please keep your disagreements and exercising of freedom of speech respectful. Failure to abide by this or any other of the rules will result in expulsion from the con.
