    Like vBulletin has ever allowed racism. You just use this to end the whole racism debate, once and for all. Saying that you have to abide by these rules, against your will, is a lie. You welcome this filter with open arms. Guess it will mean that I won't be getting banned anymore.

    I haven't edited the standard filter much, except for making words exact rather then in any part of a word.

    That will happen soon, when we clean it up but I will need to check how far we can go with it.

    Because it's worth having our forums shut down for ToS violations just so you can say *****. Right.

    not sure how the rule in bold means people aren't allowed to say *** and stuff anymore

    it also says no threatening or harassing content... guess you have to remove all the rap battles and stuff too while you're at it

    started a topic Filter in effect

    Filter in effect

    You may have noticed that a filter is in effect currently, this is due to a new licence agreement with VBulletin which hosts the forums. There is tons to it, but the important parts:

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    10. Your Representations and Warranties. You represent and warrant:

    (a) Your Account information is accurate and You will, at all times, maintain the accuracy of such information;

    (b) You will abide by all applicable laws, rules and regulations in connection with this Agreement, the Service, and your Website, including DMCA and the CAN-SPAM Act of 2011, as amended;

    (c) Your Website will have a posted privacy policy that, at a minimum, discloses the personal information you collect form users and is in compliance with all applicable Federal Trade Commission guidelines and any other applicable laws and regulations with respect to online privacy and offers End Users an opportunity to opt-out from collection and use of non-personal identifiable information;

    (d) Your Content, Your Website, and End User Content do not and will not infringe or violate the rights of any third party;

    (e) Your Website will not to store, transmit, or display any Content that is obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, pornographic, racially or ethnically offensive, that encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense or give rise to any civil liability;

    (f) Your Content, Your Website, and End User Content will be free of any dangerous or malicious content or scripts that could potentially damage or impair the Service to You or other customers (ex. viruses, Trojan horses, Easter eggs, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, buffer overflow programs; back doors, trap doors, cross-site scripting, spam, bots of any type, denial of service attacks);

    (g) You will not attempt to undermine, interfere, disrupt, or otherwise adversely affect the security, integrity, or performance of the Service, vBulletin’s network, or third-party data contained therein, as determined by vBulletin in its sole discretion;

    (h) You will not utilize processes that generate unreasonable or excessive usage of vBulletin’s system resources, as determined by vBulletin in its sole discretion;

    (i) You will not attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or their related systems or networks.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    What this means is we need to make sure nothing that can be considered obscene or racially offensive are stored within these forums, thus the filter. This is not something we can be leniant on, or for that matter have a choice on with our current forum.

    With the filter on, obviously there will be less bans, but alternatively the bans for evading the filter for Racism at the least will be alot more severe, with repeat offenders holding a permanant ban on forums. This will not relect or change any policy in game and is speifically tough just to these forums. When enabling the filter, it has automatically filtered some words (for example shaddowknight became shaddowk***ht, which i have altered to not block full words where it just happens to contain those letters. If you see others like that let me know and i will try to filter around it where i can.

    This is not what we are used to, and well beyond what we even felt was required in terms of the minor moderation we actually did on these forums, but these rules are unfortunately here to stay.
Working...
