End of an era - posting guideline change
Starting immediately, the following post content will no longer be allowed in any board of the PT Forums:
'bikini models'
nude or topless models
illustrations of the same
This includes posting them in stand-alone threads (-of-the-day type threads), replies, signatures, avatars, and post milestone congratulations messages.
NOTE: This applies only to the above types of pictures.
Additionally, the following is also not allowed:
Off-color jokes
I have tried to put more open-ended guidelines in place in the past, but they have failed to work. I apologize to all of you who met the spirit of the previous guidelines. Continued complaints as well as abuse by those who insisted on pushing the limits of existing guidelines have forced this change in the rules.
I understand that some of you will interpret this to be a limitation on your God-given right to say and post anything you want anywhere on the Internet. To that I respond:
"This is not another sign of the downfall of society, of PC run-amok, or of people who need to get a grip. It is a response to you thinking that PTE is your own personal playground to post anything you would like. Some people don't appreciate the adult content and since PT Cruisers are not exactly an adult topic, I feel no guilt tightening the focus of allowed content to be a bit more PT-centric."
Note: There are several other forums and sites on the Internet where you can post and/or view this type of content. PTE is no longer one of them.
Thank you for respecting these changes and following them as best you can. When in doubt, please don't hesitate to ask before posting.
