Rule change?

[Zoid]

Linking to or posting pornography is prohibited by praxis, so is lewd comments or discussion. Yet in the rules faq it reads:

X) What can I post?
Anything, as long as it is on-topic (or off-topic in the OT forum), and it's not covered in "What can't I post?"

and

XI) What can't I post?
Insults, flames, hatred comments, spamming, advertisements are an abuse of your priviledge to post and can result to a penalty

Alltough one could argue that praxis is as good as rules, it can sometimes create confusion about what is allowed and what isn´t. I´m not saying I want to be able to post pics with full frontal nudity or worse, but it would be nice to know exactly where the line is drawn without getting a visit from Mings banning rod

Therefore paragraph XI in the rules should be added to with something like the following "linking to or posting pornography is not allowed. Neither is explicit sex talk"

Who reads the rules any way?

I'm sure those who want to post porn pics don't...

Isn't there asecontion about common sense and everyone knows this board is intended to be suitable for all ages.

[Zoid]

I know. I just think that if you´re gonna have rules, you might as well follow them. And I don´t really want to post porn pics, I just want some order dammit!

[Zoid]

Do I sense a contest like the ADM question?

[spartak]

Wots the ADM question? And did you notice Mark didn't answer the original question.

[Adagio]

Nothing you need to worry about

[Dis]

I never closely read the rules. I just learn by other people's example. That's why I like to see why threads were locked, so I know not to do the same things.

and not posting nudie pictures is common sense.

[spartak]

Even for noobs.

[Zoid]

Allright, allright. I´ll drop it, jeez you try to make an effort...

I think it should be included in the rules. No matter how little people read the rules(I did once around the time I registered, for some reason, and have refered to it when I have wondered on when I'd become king etc. That's beginning to be some time now...), it gives the mods a better backup in case of arguments on their decisions.

hey this is good - weve had contest about when someone would ask the ADM q, but AFAIK this is the first time anyhas has actually asked WHAT the ADM question is. A first, April 14, 2005. When will it be asked next?

Very good and what is the answer?

And Nikolai - you would have to be a blithering iodiot to need a prohibition against porn in the rules to realise that you shouldn't post it here. I take it you aren't one?
