Quoted: Quoted: Changes COC 2 - ADDITION: "Detailed pornographic stories are also not allowed." COC 5 - ADDITION "Also sharing any image of another member or their family, that the member did not share on this site first is forbidden." COC 6 - ADDITION: "This rule also includes posting disparaging remarks about a member's family." Also "member" has been changed to "person" COC 7 - Added "and or replies" plus minor grammatical changes. Hourglassing prohibition removed. GIF prohibition now defined as excessive rather than numerous. Repetitive is now spelled correctly. ADDITION: "It can also be the posting of threads or replies, in which it appears that the sole purpose is to provoke other members, or to damage the image and/or reputation of the site." COC 10 - 10% rule changed to attribution to original site. ADDITION: "While not a requirement, it is considered a courtesy that you only post a small excerpt of the original article here." |

5) Posting of someone else's personal contact information (home phone numbers, home addresses, unpublished e-mail addresses, and the like). This includes information obtained through WHOIS searches,etc. Also sharing any image of another member or their family, that the member did not share on this site first is forbidden. The part in red. Does this extend to group photos like Home town get together. I'm not trying to be a smartass or anything just want to understand that we won't get band for this or something similar. |

Quoted: Yea, because you said that the majority of us follow the rules so we wouldn't have noticed anything. It shouldn't have to be in the middle of the second page to actually get a list of the changes, especially from a non-staff member after staff provides many evasive non-answers.

Is tonk a new term that I've just never heard before, or was it popular a while back? It was used by members of a particular HTF as a way to describe the sound of a MagLite hitting the head of an illegal alien. It then morphed into a derogatory term for all Mexicans. It caused quite a stir at one point, and it's use was temporally banned, because the children just started posting it everywhere. It's sort of like the short ban we had on Marpat and Bread threads. |

After all the promises written by Goatboy in the September 1st "STOP the BS - Have respect for each other or get locked" thread, this CoC tweak is basically Goatboy can't even be here to present this sad little CoC tweak. If this is the only thing to come out of arfcom central after 28 days, you can pretty well toss those GB promises about new account lock policies or the unlocks of decent people GB: "I would welcome banned members, who were not banned for overly aggressive reasons (porn spammers, racist, etc need not apply), to apply for re-instatement." Yup, it looks like Goatboy, the founder and presumed head of ar15.com ran straight into the tight cohort of Senior Staff and crashed. Do you wanna know who really runs the site?? Look at the middle of the Senior Staff list. |

Quoted: Well, it's assumed that we all know and follow the rules before this change (and can't say anything when we break them and have to face the consequences). Therefore, still holding us to that standard, the changes should have been pointed out from the start. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Does not knowing the difference between the new and old set of rules, make the new ones somehow unclear? What if you were a new member, would you not be able to understand the rules as they are written now? As I stated in another post. If you (everyone) never had a problem with the CoC before, I doubt the new rules are going to cause you any problems. In the end, the lack of highlighting had nothing to do with any kind of attempts at a future "gotcha". We just wanted to make sure that everyone would read the CoC and try and figure out the changes. This way we would hopefully get more people to read it. |

Just because you may think someone deserved another chance, that doesn't mean they are going to be unlocked. I will say that Goatboy is not to blame for someone repeatedly violating the rules and ending up perma banned. Maybe if you hadn't come into the thread with an attitude, you may not have gotten such a snarky response. |
