Evilore will be here will a more detailed summary shortly. For now, we just want to quickly put a stop to any further pollution.The following topics which endorse Lewd or provocative imagesCrude or indecent language, including adult storiesSexual tips or adviceSexual fetish sites (e.g. foot fetish content)Adult toys or productsAds or links to external sites containing adult contentThreads which promote drug use, sales or paraphernalia Are going to be stopped, at least temporarily. Most likely over the long haul. Things are just coming to light in conflict with Google Ad Sense and so this is to halt further pollution.FULL POLICY READ HERE:
By adult content, do we mean sexual content?
of all kind. No sexual advice topics anymore.
that's the other thing we're discussing right now re: homebrew.for the moment, just halt creation of any new topics on this subject and Evilore will come down with his final decision later
Amir0x posting new rules that include the banning of "Threads which promote drug use, sales or paraphernalia."Oh, the delicious irony. I wonder how much it pained him to type that out...
So after completing his masters dirty little task Amir0x locks the thread. When the difficult questions begin to be asked.
And icecream will never be unbanned
I'm on my phone now. Would someone PLEASE copy/pasta the three-post OP of this thread (click quote to get all the image codes too): http://secondapps.com/neogaf/showthread.php?t=427321Then paste it in txt file. It's one of the most valuable threads on GAF to me. I fucking mean it.
Hahaha. 2006 all over again. In 2006 they employed a no cussing policy and we couldn't post fun threads in the OT anymore. Place became a bore, hence the name of this site. Speaking of which, we need to make way for EB's 5th anniversary.
Hypothesis: Their reaction to google's ads is overblown and they realize that google would never enforce those rules to a strict extent since their advertisers would lose all the money making audiences. The rules are there in case they run into trouble with an old lady on a rampage, but in the every day they likely wouldn't enforce or follow the rules for fear of the potential money loss.

Didn't Evillore end that failed policy with a thread title that was called "fuck it" or something like that?
Depending on how strictly they need to adhere to Google's rules, this could ban discussion of (from most likely to slightly possible):CatherineDragon AgeDuke NukemShadows of the DamnedMass EffectMortal KombatResident EvilDead SpaceGrand Theft AutoPersonaAny and all fighting games or games with combat
the fuck is this shit
Damn, really? Does that mean they killed the Whiskey thread too? It wasn't too active, but it was a good resource.
