So, for the sack of myself, Roel, and Spanish, I’ve created this thread to communicate directly to members, since this is probably the best place for such. Just as a reminder, sock puppetry is strictly prohibited. Its also a fast way to a ban. If you want to return to the forum, message Lordroel or an inspector general, or if it’s a kick just wait out the kick. If you come back as a sock puppet it is gonna be thought by the admins that your a spammer. Myself and my fellow admins aren’t ban crazy or even super stringent on rules but this one is very serious. Thank you. Discussions about warnings, temporary bans and permanent bans are done here: The Pit of InfamyThe rules of the forum can be read here: The rules of the forumNews regarding Updates of the forum can be found here: Forum UpdatesUpdate and news about moderators can be found here: Meet the moderators |

I am thinking to merge Future History and Shared Worlds into 1 board as they are both the least active boards in the comment and the new board will be called Future History & Shared Worlds, if in the future one of the subjechts become more active i might split them again.

So i am serious thinking of expanding:
Rule XII: posting images ore videos of young children in post ore threads is not tolerated on the forum unless approve by the Administrator (Lordroel) or a moderator (Inspector General), this rule is to prevent unwanted attention to the forum.
To also include pictures ore clips of women that are not part of news, anime, cartoon ore drawings as i feel that posting pictures ore clips of women is something we realy do not need on the forum.
So what are the members toughs on this.

That’s probably best, Would subjects like the Miss Universe Pageants also fall under this american2006,, i know i posted in this thread as well, but after it, i stated to think we need some rules on what we can post regarding women. |

Well again the rule says we can give permission where necessary, so not necessarily. Some rules for all discussion is good |

Guys Wouldn't this prevent say pictures/videos of say female politicians or other prominent figures or of ordinary people/reporters reporting on problems, with regards to say Covid, political corruption, social issues etc? I know there is the option of asking permission but I suspect this level of restriction is not intended. For instance at least in Britain there's been a fair amount on the news about the recent legal judgement in France on the use of unsuitable silicon products for breast implants which has caused thousands of women serious health problems. Any coverage of victims talking about this - obviously not talking about pictures of their breasts here - would similarly need permission.
Or similarly where gillan1220 was posting home made videos such as here - 1st post.
I know what your intending Lordroel but as worded it does seem too restrictive. - Another example that just came to mind in that the Eurovision Song Contest final is tonight. As the law stands currently people would have to get permission to post images from that if they included women.
Sorry if I'm being too much of a lawyer but I fear your in danger of excluding images of women from the site far more than you intend.

Thanks. Probably being too pedantic about the wording but as always the devil is in the detail. Which is why lawyers are so rich. I know what you intend but its bloody difficult to actually put that down in words.
