Welcome to the Sanctuary. By signing up for this forum you agree these rules listed below. In addition to the rules below. Anything you post on this forum is hypothetical and the site administrators do not condone and are in no way liable for anything that is posted or is a result of something that has been posted on this site. Do not post evidence of any crimes or incriminate yourself.
We do not have a solid set-in-stone list of rules because of the nature of this forum. The rules below have been developed to address issues that commonly arise in the forum. This is not a catch all and is meant to be used as a guideline. Please use common sense when posting. We may let minor violations slide if they are not disrupting the operation of the forum. If in doubt, Private Message a member of staff for clarification before making your post.
We encourage proper forum etiquette when posting or making a new thread. When posting please use the multi-quote feature or edit your post to avoid multiposting. Proper spelling and grammar is also strongly encouraged.
We use a combination of warnings and bans to deal with rule violations. For small violations we give out warnings. For more severe or reoccurring violations we will ban users based on the severity of the violation. When a user here is warned, they have three days from the time they have been warned in which they cannot violate any rules again. If the three days pass without violation, the users warning level is reset completely. If three days have not passed though and they violate the rules again, they will be banned with the length determined by the member of staff who bans them.
Attention New Users:
Until you have at least 20 posts, you will not be able to use img BBCode tags. This has been done to prevent some types of very nasty spam from being posted by someone with throwaway accounts on here. We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Account Deletion:
We will not delete your account by request. What you post here is, for the most part, permanent and is backed up frequently.
The Seven Deadly Sins of Sanctuary:
You will be automatically banned and, if applicable, the offending posts will be removed for the following.
1. Flooding, a form of spam, which is posting the same images and/or text repeatedly. It can also include posting incredibly long posts without any substantial content.
2. Child porn, (CP) which can be defined as images, videos, or links to such of anyone nude and under the age of 18, no matter what the context and sexually suggestive images, videos or links to such of anyone under the age of 18 with partial clothing. (Bikinis, etc.)
3. Links to or images and videos of IRL bestiality.
4. Personal information (PI) of any users on Sanctuary, which is anything that can be used to identify a user or their family members IRL. The only exception to this is if someone posts their own PI publicly on the site. That is it.
5. Advertising your own site, service, or thing unless publicly cleared to do so by an admin or global mod. This also includes people affiliated with the creation, maintenance, or advertisement of a site, service, or thing.
6. Breaking into or attempting to deface or damage the site or its host in any way. This also includes links to programs that could damage or deface the site or its host, instructions on how to do so, or where to obtain such information or make such programs.
7. Ban evading, which is making another account in order to circumvent your ban and continuing to post on the site. If you are caught ban evading, your alt account will be permabanned and length of the ban on your original will be increased if it is a temporary ban.
You may be warned for the following:
- Blatantly derailing a thread and going completely against the conversation flow or derailing with the purpose of harassing another user.
- Bumping a thread that is old unless you legitimately have something to add or contribute.
- Completely illegible or incoherent posts or threads.
- Making phony post reports.
Other Rules & Info:
- If you post a thread that is not fitting in a sub forum, it may be locked and/or moved by a member of staff.
- Use the report post feature to let the moderation team know of issues with users.
- Signatures must be reasonably sized and any profile elements must also conform to the rules of Sanctuary. If offending users keep having such elements in their profile after they have been told to change it by a member of staff, they will lose their profile customization privileges completely for an indefinite period of time.
- If you repeatedly violate a rule, or if we think you are just bringing the site down, you may be banned for a long time or permabanned.
If you feel you've been punished unfairly, you may contact an admin about it by email. (fakeout0@yahoo.com) HOWEVER, keep in mind that most, if not all of the time, an admin (me included) will stand by a global moderator's decision. We pick our staff VERY carefully and hold them to a rigorous standard. For more information on this subject, please see the stickied topic on Staffing Policies.
"Completely illegible posts or threads"
does this mean anywhere in the forum, and also, who decides what is 'illegible'?
Except in the future spam forum, yes. And the staff.

damnit, the worst thing you can do is call a beta a beta, because then they get all indignant and start trying to act like what they think alphas act like, and it just ends up as a pathetic train wreck. How do you say....'cringey'?
Serious question Arnox, I'm actually interested in your response as I'm sure many other are too, you've left a trail of breadcrumbs leading to the answer for some time now and my suspicions are all but confirmed but I have to be straight up for a second when I ask you this and I expect a serious and truthful answer, direct, to the point, no pussyfooting around, just an honest, truthful response and I'll never ask it again
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR IQ?
Will Tagging Articles with users names in them be considered PI?
Why is there still a PI rule.
Sure, posting PI isn't particularly productive but trying to enforce that rule is one of the most conter-productive sources of drama this community has ever tried (unsuccessfully) to engage in.
Also shut up dapedo, you're bringing the site down.
No more advertising your things, guys ;)
No, you're insulting everyone by implying they're as much of a little bitch as you are. Man the fuck up, if you're so stupid that you can't keep your personal info under wraps then you shouldn't be posting here anyway. Instead you want to be a dipshit and go cry to the staff when someone posts your name like it even matters.

Why is there still a PI rule. These stupid fights over what is and isn't PI
- If you repeatedly violate a rule, or if we think you are just bringing the site down, you may be banned for a long time or permabanned.
the bold and underlined portion of that is a license to abuse bans
-Please elaborate more what you expect in regard to what the definition of "forum etiquette" is.
-Please remove the "proper spelling and grammar is encouraged". You are already going over the fact that unintelligible babble won't be tolerated later in the rules....and this particular edict sounds like it's coming from a school marm or anal retentive librarian. Which is a bit awkward if not embarrasing considering the type of hardcore user you seem to want to attract.
-Please elaborate on what constitutes "derailing with the purpose to harass a user". This sounds way too generic and broad based, and could be used/abused/interpreted willy nilly depending on the parties and any bias the staff may have in perception of the posts.
-Please elaborate on the meaning of "if we think you are just bringing the site down". This is THE most dangerous rule of all, and sounds way too subjective and open up to interpretation as I just stated above. Kind of how police use "disorderly conduct" as their catchall crutch when no other crime has really been committed, just kind of throwing something at the wall hoping to make anything stick.
Why is there still a PI rule. These stupid fights over what is and isn't PI
What is and isn't PI is clearly defined now.
Even if the wording is clear it won't be enforced like that (and actually it's the same rule as before which empirically hasn't been enforced like that). Take the pictures that Vizier posted on zoklet that have been posted here. By a literal reading of the rules that's PI but it hasn't been treated that way and it'd be stupid to treat it that way.
Besides, most people would think the rule is stupid even if it were crystal clear. People will break the rule if it's there or not. In fact people will post PI because there's a rule against it. It's just one more reason for people to pick fights with you and the staff with absolutely 0 benefit to anyone in the community.
I don't know what happened with Vizier's PI. I was getting posts about it being an actor or something... I don't know. Slip-ups happen. We can't be omniscient and that goes for every rule. Not just PI.
But, by your logic, we should just have ignored the CP too because people were posting it all the time.
And you're also making it sound like it's still a current problem when no one around here has posted PI for a rather long time anymore.
But I thought half of the purpose of HB was drug-fueled incoherency
We're going to make HB a funny SG pretty much and make a spam forum as well to counterbalance that.
As with CP, I don't think we need to be that strict.

Check. and. MATE. 8)
Harm from the PI rule comes in arguments over what constitutes PI, staff slipups, and resentment towards the staff. There are no clear benefits since the rule doesn't actually prevent PI from being spread.
And in any case, hardly anyone here has a problem with the PI rule it looks like. You seem to be the only one who has a problem with it. Just saiyan.
Posting a users PI is not only a huge annoyance to the user who's PI was posted, in some rare extreme cases, it can also become a serious identity theft hazard and some of our more crazy members may just take advantage of the PI and track down the user (Yes, I've heard of this happening legitly. Don't tell me it doesn't.) to harm him/her in some way.
So when/if enough people complain about PI or find the rule ambiguous then you'll repeal it? I'm the only person complaining now but I expect when a popular poster gets banned people will give a shit and they'll let you know, it's happened in the past.
You're right, it is annoying to be doxxed. Probably not dangerous to anyone here, but I'll give it to you for the sake of argument. The problem is that the rule doesn't stop anyone from doing it. It actually encourages it because PI becomes commoditized. The damage is done if the person posting the PI is banned or not (not to mention spreading PI through email and PM is absolutely trivial).

If that happens, I'll just point them to the rules and tell them that they agreed to follow them when they were made. As to a lot of posters possibly complaining about it now, if they bring up good points against it, I'll remove it. (I really doubt it though.)
As to the rule making it a commodity, it already is a commodity simply by it being private information.
what the fuck is it with you zoklet faggots and needing so desperately to harvest and store people's information? just post on the forum without all this bullshit. i haven't seen any decent posts from you. post some decent content or fuck off to some other forum.

I couldn't imagine giving less of a fuck if my posting habits measure up to your bullshit quality standards.
All I've ever seen you do is meta-bitch about other people bitching. You're doing everything they are except you're an extraordinary hypocrite for doing so.
All you do is cry and moan trying to get PI allowed on here. You're less than worthless by anyone's standards. It's sad you can't post any real worthwhile content. Make your own PI forum and see how that goes.

Does this mean someone can be banned for their post style, e.g. being direct, persistent and ruthless in discussion? I ask because I can imagine a scenario whereby a mod' recommends a user be permabanned because they are consistently 'mean and unfriendly'. On the basis of what I've seen so far on this site I doubt they'd even be required to validate their claim before action was considered.
3. Eh... Alright. I'll take it out. But the first part of the rules still apply. The thing is, DaGuru, people here need to have some faith in the staff. Again, we're not here to be brutal dictators or else we would have made a completely different site.

Again, seems to be a little bit confusing and muddy....because all we can do is take Arnox at face value at this point, and leaving any finite boundary or rule on the concept of "faith" leaves me a bit squeamish as well.
STFU SpectraLWhy is there still a PI rule.
Because the purpose to this forum is to exchange ideas and information as well as engage in lively debate. Sure those debates sometimes end up being arguments which escalate into outright flame wars. But if ANYONE at ANY TIME has to resort to "spreading PI" (whether pics, names or anything else) because they are such an immature fuckup in the middle of losing that debate...then they have no business being here. They do need to be perma-banned, as someone that emotionally spastic and mentally lacking has to actually "go there"...its not conducive in any way, shape or form to what the purpose to this place is, and especially the "kind" of user we want to attract.
This has been explained to you probably a couple DOZEN times now, when will you stop asking this ridiculous question with such an OBVIOUS answer. Just because you don't like the response doesn't mean common sense and adult discourse will suddenly take a vacation because it doesn't fit your toxic and idiotic agenda. Get over it already.....

Truth be told I do think there's some scope for 'executive' decisions to be made. In your case for example the level of out-and-out shitposting is exceptionally high; checking through your last 50 posts is a bit like staring at dead bodies floating down the Ganges.

Links to software or instructions could possibly come up in context of discussions on security measures. As they say, the best way to see how security works, is to see how security fails.

And actually, if someone's posting your PI, how would deleting your account do you any good?
Because the only reason people care about PI is because people who know them IRL can see their shit. Go into BI or BLTC and tell me anyone there wouldn't want to delete their posts if their handle here got posted on facebook or something. Also this (what you posted) is the exact argument I made against the PI rule which you haven't addressed, so apparently being helpful to people who had their PI leaked isn't actually criteria for making a rule with respect to PI in your eyes.
Even if we wanted to, we can't get rid of someone's posts entirely because account deletion won't delete other people's quotes of their posts.
And even further, how would anyone on Facebook know it was their account and not actually someone elses?
Unless they deliberately posted their PI all over their profile/the website in which case, doing such is their fault. Why should we have to take the hit and butcher our threads for someone else's dumb mistakes?

Sure but account deletion would make looking up the users posts much more difficult since there would be not index as well as the fact that only some of what you post gets quoted.
You could probably identify most people on here if you knew them IRL. I know I'd be identifiable by the content of my posts if you knew me.
Why should you have to take the hit in the case of the PI rule? Why should the userbase take the hit of getting banned for PI because of someone else's stupid mistake?
Lanny, why are you so dead set on allowing the posting of personal information? What legitimate reason would a user have to post another users personal information?
Lanny, why are you so dead set on allowing the posting of personal information? What legitimate reason would a user have to post another users personal information? If you can think of one it could and should be requested as a special exception to mods on a case by case basis. The no posting PI rule prevents that very scenario.
Deleting accounts should also be only permissible by moderators on a case by case basis as arnox said, it could make threads unreadable.
What is the logic behind the no advertising rule? I could imagine someone who is aggressively trying to promote something could get annoying with posts about their thing but that could easily be covered by the no spam/flooding rule.
1. Not very much at all. Not enough to make a difference anyway. All it takes is just one mention of your username anywhere on this forum for someone to confirm that they posted here.
2. That's stretching it honestly and there's still a lot of deniability there even if a particular user does look suspicious.
3. Why should we take the hit for any rules at all? Because the good of doing so outweighs the bad. And as Mr. High just proved, there are a lot of methods one can gain someone else's PI that are beyond ones control.
I would like to know why there is a need for a no bestiality rule? I don't recall ever seeing an influx of furries arriving at Totse or Zoklet, it just seems like a waste of rule space.

You should remove the rule explaining the 20 post limit, again though necessary - a waste of rule space. just let it exist no need to spell it out. I could see some fags preparing 50 accounts knowing they only has to post 20 times on each one to be able to spam CP for an entire day.
The issue is not being confirmed for posting on sanctuary but rather for doing things we wouldn't want to be made public. Account deletion at least has a solid chance of doing that.
Would you mind someone posting your handle and the site url on facebook or sending it to an employer?
I agree! So what good does the PI rule do? None. Obviously none. There is no good to come out of the rule because it doesn't stop shit.

"This 'ban people who bring the site down' rule it terrible! Whaaaaa! Err... except for when it's someone I dislike"
Alright, whatever, I can see you're not going to be convinced here.
Reasons why I oppose the PI rule:
* It doesn't stop PI from actually being posted
* It's one more rule to generate conflicts between staff and posters
* It commodifies personal info so it actually gets posted more
* It generates drama because getting your PI posted is not a big fucking deal
* It's a bitch rule in the first place and make everyone look bad by association
The obvious answer is so sanctuary doesn't lose posters to other forums.
1) It does stop PI form being posted as the poster is banned and the info is deleted. If you're saying that having the rule doesn't stop the initial post of the PI, sure but that is really being picky and obviously not the goal for the rule. Having speed limits doesn't stop people from speeding, but being ticketed/punished for it certainly discourages it.
2) A person posting pi is generally doing it in a malicious way so that in itself creates the conflict between the user and the staff. If members follow the rules, there is no conflict. There are less than 10 rules so I don't feel the sanctuaries rules to be lenghty or burdensome.
3) I don't think that's true at all unless you're talking about he butt hurt guy who gets mad because he gets banned for breaking the rules. If this logic was true, all the other rules would also be encouraging breaking of those rules which I'm not seeing. I don't see massive spam or CP by the general population simply because we have rules against those things.
4) It is a big deal to some people. Look at Zok, his PI gets leaked and he shuts down zoklet and makes up some bullshit AIDs story. I would definitely not want my address and phone number accessible to most of the retards on here.
5) You're being silly with that one.
Also PI via PM is trivial. Bans don't discourage it since IP bans don't exist, you just reg a new account and keep on spamming.

And then all your sock puppets get banned as well until you get bored making them. I don't see the issue. This is the way it's always worked going back decades.
Shut the fuck up The Dark Cock Sucker
The great thing about this thread, is any new users wanting to find out about the rules, or the implementation of the rules....will see Lanny droning on and on and on for 5+ pages asking the same questions, making the same erroneous arguments, and pouting again and again and again all because he can't take "no" as an answer. Helluva way to show people how immature, stupid, toxic, and outright insane one is....but its a nice commentary/legacy in regard to what Lanny is about, and why he enjoys being on message boards so much.
As far as PI, I really don't care. Though personally I think things like one's first name if it was mentioned on this site would be appropriate.Seconded. The collages were voluntarily submitted content, weren't they? Sounds like fair game to me.
And the 'culturally relevant' clause in the PI rule could be used as a basis for arguing for some of the types of pictures lanny is mentioning like pictures circulated around zoklet (IE the collage). The collages should just be allowed on the principle that those pictures were user submissions. Though, consulting a mod before PI posting could be a way to avoid petty disagreements about PI.
Seconded. The collages were voluntarily submitted content, weren't they? Sounds like fair game to me.

How?
Because the rule only prohibits PI of people who are members here. Now that LSD has an account it becomes a violation of the rules because he didn't post it here.

How do we confirm that this drawing is a drawing of lsd and not just a drawing that happens to somewhat resemble lsd?
How do we confirm that lsd is actually a member here and not someone pretending to be lsd?
Can we discuss the avatar issue? I'm not a fan of anuses and gore.
I don't know but I'm told by Arnox that the rule is really quite clear cut

It is. If it's PI, LSD needs to PM a member of staff and verify that this is actually him before we proceed to ban and remove anything.
BTW, if you guys have AdBlock (you should), you can get rid of the pics very easily by right-clicking the picture in question and selecting "Block Element."
It is. If it's PI, LSD needs to PM a member of staff and verify that this is actually him before we proceed to ban and remove anything.
Would it be reasonable to require just avatars to be PG-13? Because they're in every single post you make, instead of in specific threads or what have you.
Arnox.. like I said before, all you have to do is make it NO PERSONAL INFO... PERIOD, even if the poster is posting their own name, address, SSN, whatever is identifying information. Problem solved! The BBS doesn't need any of the kidiots' PI bullshit at all. What does a BBS based on knowledge is power have to do with the retarded kidiots' little PI games and PI posting concerns? Nothing.
a fucking line drawing
anything that can be used to identify a user or their family members IRL.

I don't think we need to go that far.
In six months, this place will be a ghost town just like it was when we got here. Have fun with your dwindling userbase and senseless, arbitrary, utterly unenforceable rules.....

What's involved in the verification process? What qualifies as verification?
What's involved in the verification process? What qualifies as verification?
Depends on what kind of PI it is really but for example, if it was a picture of that person then the user would have to give us a picture of him/her with "sanctuary" written on a slip of paper. That sort of thing.
and it sounded like Arnox told us to use adblock.
So what about a name? Would they actually have to present ID or something along with the site name?

Lanny, the logic is, if we can't verify the person's PI even with their cooperation then others can't either.

Yeah. I kinda don't like the gore and hardcore porn in avatars, too. Sometimes I browse this place at cafes and I'm afraid one day you guys are gonna get me kicked out somehow.

If it's accurate enough/shows distinctive IRL characteristics about that person then yes, it is PI.Quoteanything that can be used to identify a user or their family members IRL.
Again though, the user reporting PI needs to verify that those are in fact identifying to him/her before we do anything.
Or you're terrified of us all finding something out about you

That drawing is not a drawing of any IS member. Maybe it happens to resemble someone, coincidentally, but I assure you it isn't a drawing of anyone in particular.
Here's what I'm curious about: what is stopping anyone from claiming it to be a drawing of them? Couldn't anyone here claim that drawing is their "PI"? What if more than one person claims to be the person in the drawing? Who do you believe? How do you verify their claims? Are you going to ban someone for drawing a picture that may coincidentally happen to resemble someone else?
And how is a drawing that coincidentally resembles someone personal information? What could someone possibly do with this drawing? If nobody were to claim to be the person in the drawing, nobody would ever connect the drawing to them in the first place.
If I type the name "john smith" that's possibly someone's PI. But so what? If nnobody here admits to being john smith, no one would know who they are. If we all stay anonymous doesn't PI become moot?
In a perfect world, I'd like a way to just turn off avatars on a case by case basis from within the site. I say this knowing it's an unrealistic expectation.
fair enough. it'd be difficult to implement though, and it'd put a little more strain on the database for such little benefit... especially considering you can just disable avatars, signatures and the like from your control panel. I have all that disabled partially because I log in here from work, and partially because signatures are for hardcore faggots
Dead Daguru, I'm writing to inform you that I didn't read a single thing you just wrote and that all your efforts in crafting that post are for naught. It pleases me to note, however, that you've been so enraged by my actions as to waste your decidedly finite time on this earth in posting nonsense and rants no one is ever going to read. Carry on good chap, and suck my dick. c===8

It's contrary that someone who thinks signatures are for "hardcore faggots" has a signature shitpost.
Unless in your case there's no contradiction.
if we think you are just bringing the site down, you may be banned for a long time or permabanned.I don't have words for you left but I want you to know that everything you are disgusts me and I hope you die.

How about, "No Infinityshock allowed."
That makes no sense
That makes no sense
Exactly.
Actually, what it originally started with is equanimity stating (correctly) that most people would probably never need to use that information. That was about it. Then you guys (the superior self-proclaimed master-race users) wouldn't let that go. For several pages.
So who REALLY wrecked that thread?

I didn't really think of it as my own, anyone is free to shitpost similarly. I'm flattered you associate it with me however.
Look, I'll even make it easy for you:

That makes no sense
Exactly.
TBF Finny's rule does make sense in this context as blacks have been statistically more likely to commit violent crimes than Infinityshocks are
That makes no sense
Exactly.
I find it strange anyone would be flattered to have a particular style of shitposting associated with them. That you're also giving instruction on how to shitpost in your style is somewhat depressing. Maybe you should consider a trademark of some kind.

Shitposting is like any other sort of art, it can be good or bad and its artistic value is quite independent of its other qualities. Just like lo-fi is a legitimate musical form founded on what has historically been considered poor recording conditions shitposting sets itself apart by rejection of traditional notions of post quality, using general inanity to make a statement.
I have no intention to pursue a trademark, firstly because in the US I'd have to have used this style of shitposting in a commercial capacity to be awarded a trademark. But more generally I'm ideologically opposed to most forms of intellectual property, including trademark.
I honestly still don't know what exactly a shitpost is.
I was just like "Yea, that looks weird" and carried on whenever he posted stuff like that.I honestly still don't know what exactly a shitpost is.
Contentless drivel that adds nothing to a discussion. Lanny's shitposts are exceptional only because of their distinctive visual effect, i.e. they can't be read beyond the first few words, which adds a layer of trolling to his shitposts; you are drawn into quoting his post because that's the only way you can fully read it.
Then you wish you hadn't bothered.

Welcome to the Sanctuary. By signing up for this forum you agree these rules listed below. In addition to the rules below. Anything you post on this forum is hypothetical and the site administrators do not condone and are in no way liable for anything that is posted or is a result of something that has been posted on this site. Do not post evidence of any crimes or incriminate yourself.
We do not have a solid set-in-stone list of rules because of the nature of this forum. The rules below have been developed to address issues that commonly arise in the forum. This is not a catch all and is meant to be used as a guideline. Please use common sense when posting. We may let minor violations slide if they are not disrupting the operation of the forum. If in doubt, Private Message a member of staff for clarification before making your post.
We encourage proper forum etiquette when posting or making a new thread. When posting please use the multi-quote feature or edit your post to avoid multiposting. Proper spelling and grammar is also strongly encouraged.
We use a combination of warnings and bans to deal with rule violations. For small violations we give out warnings. For more severe or reoccurring violations we will ban users based on the severity of the violation. When a user here is warned, they have three days from the time they have been warned in which they cannot violate any rules again. If the three days pass without violation, the users warning level is reset completely. If three days have not passed though and they violate the rules again, they will be banned with the length determined by the member of staff who bans them.
Attention New Users:
Until you have at least 20 posts, you will not be able to use img BBCode tags. This has been done to prevent some types of very nasty spam from being posted by someone with throwaway accounts on here. We're sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
Account Deletion:
We will not delete your account by request. What you post here is, for the most part, permanent and is backed up frequently.
The Seven Deadly Sins of Sanctuary:
You will be automatically banned and, if applicable, the offending posts will be removed for the following.
1. Flooding, a form of spam, which is posting the same images and/or text repeatedly. It can also include posting incredibly long posts without any substantial content.
2. Child porn, (CP) which can be defined as images, videos, or links to such of anyone nude and under the age of 18, no matter what the context and sexually suggestive images, videos or links to such of anyone under the age of 18 with partial clothing. (Bikinis, etc.)
3. Links to or images and videos of IRL bestiality.
4. Personal information (PI) of any users on Sanctuary, which is anything that can be used to identify a user or their family members IRL. The only exception to this is if someone posts their own PI publicly on the site. That is it.
5. Advertising your own site, service, or thing unless publicly cleared to do so by an admin or global mod. This also includes people affiliated with the creation, maintenance, or advertisement of a site, service, or thing.
6. Breaking into and/or attempting to deface and/or damage the site or its host in any way.
7. Ban evading, which is making another account in order to circumvent your ban and continuing to post on the site. If you are caught ban evading, your alt account will be permabanned and length of the ban on your original will be increased if it is a temporary ban.
You may be warned for the following:
- Blatantly derailing a thread and going completely against the conversation flow or derailing with the purpose of harassing another user.
- Bumping a thread that is old unless you legitimately have something to add or contribute.
- Completely illegible or incoherent posts or threads.
- Making phony post reports.
Other Rules & Info:
- If you post a thread that is not fitting in a sub forum, it may be locked and/or moved by a member of staff.
- If something could be considered CP according to the above rules, but clearly isn't treated that way culturally, get mod approval first.
- Use the report post feature to let the moderation team know of issues with users.
- Signatures must be reasonably sized and any profile elements must also conform to the rules of Sanctuary. If offending users keep having such elements in their profile after they have been told to change it by a member of staff, they will lose their profile customization privileges completely for an indefinite period of time.
- If you repeatedly violate a rule you may be banned for a long time or permabanned.
If you feel you've been punished unfairly, you may contact an admin about it by email. (fakeout0@yahoo.com) HOWEVER, keep in mind that most, if not all of the time, an admin (me included) will stand by a global moderator's decision. We pick our staff VERY carefully and hold them to a rigorous standard. For more information on this subject, please see the stickied topic on Staffing Policies.
Almost all of that is draconian and Arnox should be stripped, raped and strangled.

strictly handled with warnings, and never bans? I would prefer if we didn't ban for "innocent" derailing (people just messing around), necrobumping (except in cases of spam obv), or making false post reports. On the other hand, harassment and making illegible posts seem to be more serious offenses and it'd make sense if we could ban in those cases.

No, and this is why you are unfit to be a moderator and don't belong here in general. "People just messing around" IS the textbook definition of trolling/derailing, and its what makes the threads irrelevant and eventually chases people away that DO come here for some sense of adult and controversial discussion. You wanna "just mess around"? Go post in HB. Go post in NIMF. Better yet, go find another forum completely, because again YOU DO NOT BELONG HERE if you can't understand most people want to have quality discussion without your constant trolling and interference.
Funny how you call all the other derailing as "innocent".....but then the stuff you want to infract for (flaming) you use the overly dramatic victimization verbiage of "harrassement". You are backwards and confused. On here and IRL. Go away, because until you do....this forum will continue to spiral into obscurity. No matter how much Arnox protects you and ignores the obvious.

Lol, no, this is why you're unfit to give commentary on the community. You're so out of touch with what this community actually is that you think banning people for having fun is a good idea. This community isn't about trading stupid text files, it hasn't been for a long time. There are like a grand total of 5 posters who want the whole site to be srsbsns all the time. The rest of us just want to shitpost with people we've known for what seems like forever.
It's funny that you whine endlessly about "hiding behind a control panel", yet when equiminity tries a gentler approach you get this butthurt.
Ah that makes sense. The mods have room to carefully interpret the rules.
The rules look pretty good to me, Arnox. Thanks again for working so hard on this.
It was spellcheck! Fine, go post it in your spelling mistakes thread and I can sit here and imagine all the terrible things people are saying about me.
I honestly still don't know what exactly a shitpost is.
Any post regarding the Aristocrats.
Example:SpoilerA family walks into a talent agency. It's a father, mother, son, daughter and dog. The father says to the talent agent, "We have a really amazing act. You should represent us."
The agent says, "Sorry, I don't represent family acts. They're a little too cute."
The mother says, "Sir, if you just see our act, we know you would want to represent us."
The agent says, "OK. OK. I'll take a look."
"Well first, I walk out wearing a tuxedo, playing Brahms. Just as the music peaks, my wife in an evening gown runs on stage and undresses me before stripping on top of the piano.
Just as I finish playing the song with my cock, my wife does a backflip off the piano, landing in a split on stage. Once her naked ass hits the floor, my 7 year old daughter and 13 year old son rush on stage juggling flaming lawn darts. My wife does a handstand and catches the lawn darts in her twat, she then manages to queef them out, making her the third part of this juggling act.
The queefs force her to squeeze out a few turds, which I eagerly start smearing on my naked body, which arouses me quickly. Once I'm fully aroused my daughter and son take turns blowing me while my wife straps on a monstrous dildo and begins reaming each child while i ejaculate in the eyes of my offspring.
Once I cum, I run into the audience, shit-covered body still sticky with cum and grab my parents and in-laws to involve them into the act. I strip them all nude and instruct them to start a circle jerk while screaming racial slurs. So my mother and father-in-law start screaming, "Fuck the niggers" while mutually masturbating, and my father and mother-in-law begin diddling one another and chanting, "I hate spics and jews!" Once they reach a geriatric climax, my wife uses their ejaculate to lube up her fist which she uses to start fisting me.
As my asshole is violated, I start playing double dutch with my kids, and once they get tangled in the ropes, start a torrid 69. All the sucking and slurping cause my in-laws and parents to get aroused again and they start sodomizing and fisting one another.
My wife at this point has completely started dry-heaving, so she vomits all over my ass and my back. I line up each of my family members who take turns licking the chunks of spew off my back and out of my ass.
By now my children have to defecate so I tell them to shit in each other's favorite orifices. My son, ever the trooper takes a thick, dense shit in his sister's vagina while my daughter shits in my son's nose.
My young daughter also conveniently starts her menstrual cycle shortly thereafter, and the menses and boy-shit in her cunt make for great lube, as each of my in-laws begin fucking my daughter. My son, blinded in shit, heads back to the piano and does his best Stevie Wonder impression while my wife runs back into the audience to grab a toddler from the crowd.
She begins stuffing this child into her vagina, while my parents begin screaming how she's possessed by Satan and start performing a nude exorcism on her. The power of christ compels them to kill the toddler, which also makes it easier to cram into my wife's lovehole.
By now, I'm so horny and aroused that I start fucking the dead baby inside my wife while my young son starts licking my asshole and fingering his paternal grandparents. My in-laws finish abusing my daughter and start wrestling each other, which culminates in a huge powerbomb through the piano bench. The impact shatters my mother-in-law's hips, leaving her crippled.
The strain of the throw caused my father's bad heart to seize, and he collapses in a heap on the stage. As he gurgles and foams at the mouth, my daughter runs over and begins rubbing her shit covered pussy lips all over my crippled mother-in-law.
My wife grabs the wooden shards of the piano bench and begins playing her father's dying body like a xylophone. My son pulls his tongue out of my asshole and begins sucking his dying grandfather's cock.
I diall 911 and call for the paramedics who revive my father-in-law and then take turns fucking my daughter and eating the menses and shit out of her tight cunt.
Once he's conscious we all assemble in a large circle holding hands and chanting gibberish before launching into a rousing group impression of 'A Downs Syndrome' perspective on the horrors of the holocaust, 9/11 and the bombing of Pearl Harbor.
As we're moaning and screaming, my son runs off-stage to get the family dog. The dog runs over to my crippled mother-in-law and begins peeing on her. Once the dog finishes leaving her in a puddle of piss, my daughter stops blowing the paramedics to light the dog on fire.
The dog yelps and howls before collapsing. My son runs over to fuck the burnt corpse while screaming, "White is right!"as my daughter begins goose-stepping around the stage, squeezing shit out of her cunt and offering Nazi salutes to the audience.
My father-in-law begins raping my father, claiming that he's doing it for the forgotten Vietnam vets and POWs. My mother puts my crippled mother-in-law on her shoulders as I put my wife on my shoulders and we play a game of naked chicken.
Once my son finishes fucking the dead dog. He takes the pieces of the piano bench and begins crucifying the corpse. Once the dog is hung like jesus, he begins weeping at the foot of the cross, saying, "Why my goddog have you forsaken me?"
My daughter mounts the top of the crucifix, using it as a wooden dildo. My parents, my in-laws and my wife join hands at the center of the stage and start singing "The Hills Are Alive With The Sound Of Music"
I grab the lawn darts and shove one up everyone's ass before heading back to the piano to finish off the show with a rendition of Bel Air, so I whistled for a cab and when it came near The license plate said fresh and had a dice in the mirror. If anything I could say that this cab was rare. But I thought, nah forget it, yo home to Bel Air
I pulled up to the house about seven or eight and I yelled to the cabby, "Yo homes, smell you later"
Looked at my kingdom, I was finally there, to sit on my throne as the prince of Bel Air
For the longest time, the agent just sits in silence. Finally, he manages, "That's a hell of an act. What do you call it?"
We all reply, with well deserved pride - "The Aristocrats!"
Ah that makes sense. The mods have room to carefully interpret the rules.
The rules look pretty good to me, Arnox. Thanks again for working so hard on this.
'Careful interpretation' is subject to ability, which is sorely lacking here
Lol, no, this is why you're unfit to give commentary on the community. You're so out of touch with what this community actually is that you think banning people for having fun is a good idea. This community isn't about trading stupid text files, it hasn't been for a long time. There are like a grand total of 5 posters who want the whole site to be srsbsns all the time. The rest of us just want to shitpost with people we've known for what seems like forever.
It's funny that you whine endlessly about "hiding behind a control panel", yet when equiminity tries a gentler approach you get this butthurt.
No, and this is why you are unfit to be a moderator and don't belong here in general. "People just messing around" IS the textbook definition of trolling/derailing, and its what makes the threads irrelevant and eventually chases people away that DO come here for some sense of adult and controversial discussion. You wanna "just mess around"? Go post in HB. Go post in NIMF. Better yet, go find another forum completely, because again YOU DO NOT BELONG HERE if you can't understand most people want to have quality discussion without your constant trolling and interference.
Funny how you call all the other derailing as "innocent".....but then the stuff you want to infract for (flaming) you use the overly dramatic victimization verbiage of "harrassement". You are backwards and confused. On here and IRL. Go away, because until you do....this forum will continue to spiral into obscurity. No matter how much Arnox protects you and ignores the obvious.

^srs, arnox, get us some new users. It's getting stale fast

Were it so easy.
Right now, I'm incredibly broke so I can't pay for any advertising whatsoever. Our second option would be to start getting the word out on other sites that we exist but... Well, let's take things one at a time. I just finished up with some big changes.

How you manage to avoid getting infracted for this shite I do not know.
Because nobody on the mod team has a spine.Once...

if Sploo or bling would do sort of stuff in every thread they would get banned and the function would be taken away like it did with Constantinople and font sizes.
Double standards all over the place.

I have seen a lot of bitching about the rules in this thread but I have seen no legitimate points from any of you as to how the below set of rules can be used by the moderation and admin team against the userbase.
Just tell us why these rules dont jive. As far as I can see they minimally infringe in your freedom of speech in order to keep the site on solid legal ground. Other rules protect the site from defacement and malicious users. All of the warning offences are designed in a way that unless you are making the decision to be an asshole you have no worries.
What isnt tolerated and results in a Ban:
1. Flooding/Spamming
2. Child Porn
3. Bestiality
4. Posting personal information without consent of all parties involved
5. Advertising your own site, service or product without talking to site administration
6. Breaking into, attempting to deface or posting links to malware or harmful software on this site
7. Ban evasion
What isnt tolerated and results in a Warning:
1. Blatant derailment of a thread
2. Perpetually harassing other users
3. Illegible or incoherent posts
4. Phony post reports
Essentially I am asking you, the users, to pick apart everything on my ban and warning list and tell my why its unreasonable.
Protip: you cant
So there are no rules you can pick out that have been or could easily be subject to abuse?
Interesting...

P.S. your posting style has changed since you became of mod and so far it hasn't been for the better

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’Tis some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my chamber door— Only this and nothing more.” Ah, distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December; And each separate dying ember wrought its ghost upon the floor. Eagerly I wished the morrow;—vainly I had sought to borrow From my books surcease of sorrow—sorrow for the lost Lenore— For the rare and radiant maiden whom the angels name Lenore— Nameless here for evermore. And the silken, sad, uncertain rustling of each purple curtain Thrilled me—filled me with fantastic terrors never felt before; So that now, to still the beating of my heart, I stood repeating “’Tis some visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door— Some late visitor entreating entrance at my chamber door;— This it is and nothing more.” Presently my soul grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, “Sir,” said I,
