Thread: So, what ARE the ACTUAL forum rules?

    So, what ARE the ACTUAL forum rules?

    In an art thread here, an image was removed by Dawnseeker saying it violated the rules. However, the image in question did not break any of the rules posted, and no action should have been taken by the Tynon staff. It's obviously not clear to the moderators either as at least one thought the forums were at the worst PG-13.

    Dawnseeker disagrees despite the the rules posted here; Forum Rules. That is unless Dawnseeker found 'Any other content deemed objectionable by the moderators or staff' justified the removal. Odd that the only one finding it objectionable was Dawnseeker.

    I respectively request you show me where "PG" is in the Forum Rules. Nowhere in the forum rules is this actually stated. I didn't feel the image you removed violated any of the rules. There was no nudity, sexuality or obscenity. So, are you now making this broad change to the rules? And furthermore, update the wordage in the rules? Does this also mean those under 13 won't be allowed to play Tynon?

    The image was removed because of this reason.

    Discussions of sex and sexuality are not appropriate for this forum. This includes:
    References to sexual function or organs
    References to sexual orientation or lifestyle
    References to extreme or illegal sexual behavior
    Sexually suggestive images, links or discussion
    pornography

    This includes internet memes such as 'pedo' and 'pedobear'
    Hope that explains it for you.

    You can find the complete forum rules here http://bbs.tynon.com/showthread.php?593-Tynon-Forum-Rules
    The opinions expressed on this post are my own as a player, not as a Moderator.

    Morgan copy/pasted the relevant section of the rules. If you have any further questions or disagreement about the forum rules, feel free to send me a PM. It should be noted that I wrote the rules for this forum and I can change or add to them if necessary, so anything you think may need clarification, please let me know.

    the funny part about this mini-drama is that the forum tries to be PG while the game isn't

    ... just saying lol

    Tynon's unfairness continues. Not just my National Comics Standards PG rated image was removed, but also my site link in the sig. I have been careful of the images I posted here. I even asked the mods to review several before posting. It's clear Tynon has double standards that are hypocritical and unlikely to change.

    I can't in good conscience contribute anything more to this community.

    i am pretty sure that link removal had nothing to do with the pics but was removed because there was tynon accounts offered for sale
