new ruless

[Jordy]

Thank you for ignoring my post once again, however it doesn't come as a surprise.

Before the rule was updated I would of been allowed to post the picture below without a spoiler wouldn't I or would it of been inappropriate?

Warning and all that jazz.

Again, another rule that is left to an individuals judgement. The rules need to be black and white about what is and isn't acceptable. Once upon a time the rules used to be common sense, I wouldn't say that any more.

What I mean is the term "mild" is the factor that changes the whole rule. Who determines what is and isn't mild? Personally, I'd say the images that have been posted like the one above with all the deemed inappropriate bits covered unacceptable and would expect the image to be removed off the forum.

Well if you check out the post your desktop threads, a good few of them contain images like that as the backgrounds without a spoiler. So my guess is really that it depends on the context and the nature of the images.

My personal opinion would be if you cant see anything you wouldn't see on the average swimming costume its probably fine to post most of the time, if the context of the image is sexual of suggestive at all though, a spoiler would probably be advised "/.

I'm no Mod though so this is really just my speculative take rather than anything that would necessarily be endorsed :p

This hasn't changed anything, you could still post pictures like that without spoilers.

Agreed in respect of the girly pictures posted. Its just formalisation of what has been happening actually in the rules now.

Fact of the matter is that +18 material shouldne't be posted on a 13-18 forum. That's common sense.

And there was a thread in feedback about the rules being too strict a few weeks back, now you're saying they're too weak?

Adam, being a moderator you should know you can't really generalise with all the rules. When people say "rules are strict" they're often referring to one or two of the rules which are sanctioned in an unnecessarily harsh way, which is a fair comment in my opinion.

However, that's just one or two. I find some rules are very strict and some are probably too lenient. I don't think there is any need to post half naked women and I don't think it should be deemed appropriate. If management think it's appropriate then that's their call, doesn't mean me or any one else for that matter is going to agree with it.

I trust those people in charge of such situations to make the right and best decisions and if they've decided that posting things in spoilers with a suitable warning is beneficial in any way shape or form in beneficial to Habbox then that's their call.

No nipples= safe

yeah, this seems about right. I hate it when people show off their nipples.

Under the current rules your avatar isn't allowed since it is outside a spoiler... Just sayin'

I don't see how context has any relevance. The point is to prevent younger members seeing the types of images in question.

As many people have said, an ounce of common sense should provide the ability to make an accurate judgement on what to post and how to post it.

Although I don't really understand the point about how things, "contribute to Habbox". Half the content on the forum probably doesn't contribute to Habbox - either Habbox the website or Habbox the community. ...Or am I missing the point?

Good thing that the teddy bear in my signature has it's breasts covered

Ontopic:

I think brandon usually has some sort of sexually provocative thing in his signature/avatar....

Yeah who is that girl?? :8

Sorry LOL

Ow my eyes .

Well tbh I am quite sensitive about my name cos it never seems to be spelt right But yes you do make a lot of sense.

It's so unnatural though to write a Z and and S together and in that order! I always have to double-check if I'm writing it .
