So animation wasn't allowed, but theymos allowed them anyway:

AFAIK it's not that he allowed them, but APNG was not widespread until 2017 or so (when Chrome started supporting it) so he didn't have detection implemented.

Someone earlier suggested vulgar avatar's shouldn't be allowed
See:
Quote
1) Is nudity allowed? If so, to what extreme? To a non nsfw tag?

No.

Quote
2) Is NSFL allowed? [NSFL = Not Safe For Life]

No.

Quote
3) Is other adult content allowed?

Maybe.

If I receive (or anticipate receiving) several complaints about something, it's probably too much.

Quote
4) Are paid avatar campaigns allowed?

Yes.

Quote
5) Is copyright content allowed? How should copyright holders request deletion of infringing content?

You are not allowed to infringe copyright, of course. I have no way of knowing whether you have a license to use particular images, and it's additionally sometimes difficult to determine whether fair use applies, so I will not be proactively removing possibly-infringing images. The DMCA process is used.

Quote
6) Is racial / sexist content allowed?

Probably.

Quote
7) Is there a limit on 'annoyingness'?

Animation is not allowed, so I feel like it'd be difficult to create an avatar that is sufficiently annoying that I'd want to remove it.

Quote
8 ) Are 'imitation' avatars allowed? Ie wearing avatars of specific companies to give the false impression of representation.

Copying someone's avatar in order to impersonate them or cause confusion is not allowed. But if you both use some generic picture of some famous person or something, that's probably not going to count, and using elements of someone's avatar for purposes other than impersonation will probably be allowed. Same for companies.

Quote
9) How should users report those with infringing avatars?

DMCA takedown notices or any other legal thing must be emailed to me. For other issues, post about it in Meta.
So animation wasn't allowed, but theymos allowed them anyway:
OK, APNGs are now detected. Old ones are grandfathered for now, in part because people have ongoing campaigns, but in the future I might (or might not) go through and remove them.

Someone earlier suggested vulgar avatar's shouldn't be allowed and users who used to not have one started using them. No use of reporting.

Maybe a parental guidance system rating displayed at the top of each thread.

Just rename it to Bitcuntalk and be done with it.

Now we have flags, will there be a blue one for this?

Was that from me?  Just fuckin' curious, man.
uggghhh, not every fuk'n thing is about you.  Tongue

No I think I sent you a PM once about feedback wording, which probably got lost in the 100's of PM's you were getting when you first cracked DT; or you promptly ignored it. No biggie either way. I can't remember for sure but someone was just spouting off on a racist rant. Had I been smarter I probably could have got them on an off-topic report.

For OP, I will add when I got here I tried reporting racism.

Look, if you can't handle some cussing perhaps you ought to either stay off the internet or try to clean it up.  Good luck with either one, and you're basically trying to do the latter right here on bitcointalk.  If you don't like what people are saying, put them on ignore instead of trying to censor people's speech.  Give me a FUCKING break.

LOL, I was gonna say "we should introduce OP to TMAN" but here you are Smiley
Yes, the head cunt in charge.  Love ya, TMAN.

As we are discussing fowl topics, I should like to mention the Cotswold legbar. It is a wonderful English chicken that lays blue eggs with a bright yellow yolk. It's far superior to the battery bred jobs with thin shelled eggs.

Satoshi probably never complained about language either.

No complaint was ever made by me. I only made a suggestion. Bad language is not in the rules, so case closed.

Thank you for all of the tips everybody. I am not offended, but Satoshi probably never used vulgarity at this forum. Neither should you?

Satoshi probably never had an ad in his signature either, nor did he own any shitcoins. You know what, I could probably sign up for making this "orthodox Satoshism" religion you're proposing into a theocratic constitution of the forum.

No.

you can report any kind of topics with bad-languaged titles to moderator.

No.

there is userscript

Noooo... don't give matches to a toddler.

In case sarcasm in this thread is not coming across (it obviously isn't):

FOUL LANGUAGE IS NOT AGAINST THE RULES

1 - Use the edit button instead of multiposting.
This rule #32, is what Steamtyme mentioned. Please editing the OP, by collecting and merge all posts after OP into OP. I don't offend you about the topic purpose, its meaning for the forum, but at least you should compose OP better, and don't violate forum rule first. Such bad-languaged topic titles should be wipen out, but is it time to show power of Report button? I guess it is, and you can report any kind of topics with bad-languaged titles to moderator. You can do it manually (Report to Moderator on the right bottom of each post), or if you are lazy, there is userscript that can help you: [HACK] One-click mod report, not for the faint of heart
32. Posting multiple posts in a row (excluding bumps and reserved posts by the thread starter) is not allowed.

Since when is Flash a swear word.

Don't get me started... anyone who had to deal with Adobe Flash in Internet Explorer circa 2005 can attest to that.

If your "good reports" percentage is too high, report all these bad words to moderators and they'll happily oblige to lower it.

On a somewhat related note, I am gravely offended by Flash Cunt having only one swear word in their username, seems unbalanced.

It seems you have all spoken of your viewpoint. It was only a suggestion.

1 - Use the edit button instead of multiposting.
2 - People can say and do whatever they like here, within the forum guidelines. You can't limit how much one likes to swear, express their racist or bigoted views. All you can do is ignore them, or engage them on their behavior. I don't recommend the second, I know I wouldn't like being told to stop saying the "shit has hit the fan" and I do use it a lot.

The best advice on this forum is to grow thicker skin. If that doesn't work use your ignore button, but you may miss out on some good conversation.

I hate people using swear words in thread titles. It's nearly as bad as capitalising and using glyphs.

Some topic titles have swear words in them. I suggest cleaning it up somehow. Any thoughts and other positions?
