What is considered too graphical or gory for this forum?
Now, it's not that I think anybody in this forum would do any of things, most people already know better, but if you don't, it's quite alright, don't worry, this post will clear some of the confusion up. As always, you are welcome to ask if in doubt. Don't hesitate to send me an IM, this is what I'm here for.
anything like the below items may be too graphical for THIS forum, try to avoid these things...
*burning
*beating
*whipping
*rape
*crucification
*skinning
*drowning
*domestic violence
*bondage of any kind
*excessive blood loss
*Body fluids (of any kind)
*violence against a minor
*violence targeting a certain group, or individual member of a group
*anything depicting suicide
*anything depicting gangs or gang violence
*anything depicting necrophilia
*anything depicting pedophilia
Non-humans such as monsters are an exception to this rule BUT tone it down
Things that you shouldn't be posting about...
*No alcohol
*No drugs
*No smoking
*No sex/smut/porn
*No religion (This all depends on the nature of the post)
*No politics (again, depends on the nature of the post)
You have the right to speak your mind, but if the topic is a little risky, controversial, or is open to debate...put it in the blog forums. I opened that section just for that reason. Feel free to express any ideal there. (sorry guys, no matter how much I'd like to, I can't rate the blogs more then PG 16)
NUDE pictures of ANYTHING human (a person, male or female) will be deleted immediately. If it's a male, the chest can be showing but he MUST have some sort of pants on. A female should be waring AT LEAST enough to cover the nipples, crotch, and bottom. This will result in a simple deletion of the post, no warning, no ban. If you are spamming though, I will ban the entire ISP service area that you're coming from.
Monsters, non humanoid creatures and animals are an exception to this rule BUT the creature needs to be noticeably NON-human and the genitals must NOT be showing or obvious. ( I realize on animals this rule may be a bit difficult to follow.)
Absolutely, positively NO child/minor pornography or violence, human or non-human, female or male!!! I'm not even going to spell this one out, you should already know better! This is a public forum that is themed around a game that children may want to play. Just for your own info, the RPG maker XP is rated PG 13 according to US standards, due to the graphical nature. Example, young people beating up monsters with swords and such.
When in this sort of context (a forum, website, etc) a minor is considered somebody under the age of 18 by the standards of New York of the United States. I'm the admin of the particular site (I'm from New York, USA) and this site is on servers in the United States, so New York US standards apply. I don't care if you come from a country, culture or state that allows a younger age!
This rule is also dependent on the nature of the post, I do realize we have some young folks in this forum who may want to chat about their friends. We should all understand that casual chit chat about friends and family is not what this post is about.
But repeated offenses of exceptionally vulgar post, any post depicting or commenting on somebody 10 year or younger in a sexual or violent manner, WILL result in immediate deletion of the post and an INSTANT, permanent ISP ban. NO questions asked!! In fact I may even report the post to the authorities. Be aware of this rule, I'll follow it to THE LETTER.
