Okay, after last night it's time to update the rules.


Proposition 1:
No quoting flash in posts.  Remove the flash before quoting the post.  Do not post excessive flash files per post.  This means that you should only post 1 per post if it's an auto play file., unless you are using spoiler tags, then no more than 2.   It's also advisable that you don't try avoiding this by just posting multiple times in a row.


Proposition 2:
For threads containing NSFW content, YouTube Videos, or Flash content you are required to include the proper message icon. 




okie vote guys.

second rule is as far as I, and anyone else, will go to support the message icon rule.

I'll argue that threads about Youtube videos don't require the tag, but for the rest, I agree.

Don't quote flash or youtube videos.  Don't post more than 2 flash files per post, and if you post multiple ones put them in spoilers.

I agree for the most part. You might want to mention that there shouldn't be two Flash files on one page in any thread unless both are not auto-play. You don't want Flash file sounds to overlap. It's just annoying and stupid.

And Youtube threads might not need the icon, but whatever. The other two icons are probably necessary. The others are just a luxury.

YPrrrr

I like the Youtube tag a lot. It lets me know to skip the thread

I voted for both
I'd also like a rule for all flashes which autoplay sound to be in spoilers (not counting in threads marked as flash), because I hate having to turn my computer to mute just because of somebody embedding a song in the chat thread >.<

You mean any auto-play flashes with sound. Ones that require you to interact shouldn't need to be put in spoilers. Good idea though.

I think that if a youtube video is embedded in the post, it should have the post tag thingy, but otherwise it shouldn't need it.
