All the rules.

Really, I am happy there are a lot of rules on this website. It keeps things safe and kid-friendly for the young people up here. (Such as myself.) HOWEVER...the rules are a little...what's the word...overdone. I made a post about Pucca, and we all know that show is about how Pucca kisses Garu all the time. And I mentioned that in the post. But that post was edited because of "personal relationship discussion." It's a TV show! The characters aren't real, so it's not a personal relationship! I know they're trying to keep it G, but Pucca isn't even AT G-level. It's Y7! Also, if someone said something mean to you, and you said something back to person (defending yourself) that post is either edited or removed for "flaming." -sigh- AND, with some sites, you can't even SAY the name.

Pfft, even this post is probably going to be edited.

Should this be in Rants or Site Feedback? Or both?

You're right, it was edited.

Defending yourself can still be flaming, I've had it done a lot to me. Both posts should be deleted. If only one was, you'd be screaming at nothing

Lightbulb The Reason Why We Have Rules

Ever since YouShare got blocked, some of the people on here left. YouShare is blocked because of the reason the other ones are.

Rules are rules. Follow them. They keep us safe.

Better to be SAFE than SORRY!


(Idk if this is a rant unless people oppose my opinion)

Well, in some section in the site (rants maybe?) there's a thing by Batleth that says no relationships. I know it may sound crazy when some people here like you and me are allowed to hear that stuff, it's just that some kids out there aren't. So maybe just me sensetive about it =)

I hope this doesn't cause a whole string of rule arguments like before when everyone argued about the rules. It gets annoying.

The rules are meant to protect us. When you made your account, you agreed to the rules. The policies have been long standing so I don't see why they would be changed now. The mods have been stricter lately because there have been more violations.

The language rules occasionally tick me off but I understand why they are there. Rules always have a reason behind them usually.

Quite frankly, I don't think YouShare should be blocked. So what if there are SOME bad things in it? Theres not a lot, and I even looked around it! (I actually found none) And there are ways to take the links out of the stuff, so it has no hyperlink. Plus, even if there is one, its the user's fault for clicking it, no one elses. I know I'm gonna get this edited, deleted, or I'm gonna get in trouble, but I wanted to get my feelings out.

LOL! I think it is funny that your first post was edited. It is a prime example in a way. That is kinda a weird way though to change it because Pucca kisses that dude. Come on now! Its just a animated TV show! lol

Either way, it is still discussion of relationships.

The rules have to be strict to keep things in order. That's just the way it goes. Sure, you can argue your opinions against VMKF staff, and I'm sure that you're either going to cave in to find common ground or go back to bed disappointed.

Staff are more worried about the safety and content of the site. Sorry!

Oooo! another well said comment haha

Yes. Rules = Safety =... safety.. There's nothing better on a G rated fansite hehe

I don't see how a post being edited is an example of rules being strict. It's not strict, they just did something incorrectly, or against the rules, causing it to be edited. If this makes any sense, I was happy to help. haha

How can something non-G rated cause harm? Because based on your comments, G-rated is the only way to go if you're aiming for safety.

According to your logic, some of Nick's other sites are unsafe. Yes, the rules do keep the site kid-friendly, but safety is totally irrelevant.

Safe from adult content.

Adult content isn't necessarily unsafe, it's just not kid-friendly.

It is unsafe for kids to look at. They don't need to know about adult content.
