Not a problem on a widescreen monitor. Please don't report sig violations from phones or tablets.

I agree that it's garish. I don't think it's so garish as to be rulebreaking. Sigs like that are the reason I have sigs disabled in my UCP.

Has a link to Donate to Bernie Sanders, and this post makes it sound like those types of links aren't allowed in sigs (or anywhere, I'm presuming)

If the above is true, could one take a look at the link posting towards the foundation?

I agree that a donation link to a political campaign should be considered a commercial link. It has been removed.

Furry Alairia and Algeria wrote: could one take a look at the link posting towards the foundation?

That charitable foundation link does not look to me like a commercial link, and is unlikely to directly benefit the player. I'll allow it.

The Mid East Federation wrote:Advertisement for LibDems

Again, not a commercial link seeking donations. I realize there is a donations link on the linked page, but it's at one remove from the link and therefore not actionable.

It's a tough call on these, and probably some of the affected users are going to think I'm discriminating against their cause or candidate. Not the case. It's all in how the information is presented.

So would LibDems be considered related to NationStates?

Clarified elsewhere:

Frisbeeteria wrote:While I normally don't make lists of [allowed|denied] activities, the listed ruling is obscure enough to require some clarification.

The rules are
1) "Forbidden Links/Warez Requests: Referral links (where you derive some sort of financial or other benefit)"
2) "Advertisements: Advertising sites unrelated to NationStates is not permitted. If you really want an ad, contact the Admins, and purchase banner space. Advertisements for websites/forums directly related to Nationstates are allowed."

  • Links to the political party website that reflects your views do in fact relate to the political nature of the game
  • Links to the donation page of the same political party violates rule 1). If your candidate wins, you directly benefit.
    I will note that many political sites include a secondary donation link. Primary political pages that also include such a secondary link are allowed as a specific exception to the general rule, as this is a political simulation site.
  • Links to charitable organizations for causes you support but don't directly benefit you are allowed.
  • Links to charitable organizations that you receive funding from or that you work for, violate rule 1) and are not allowed.

This is not a complete list, and the degree to which any given link matches rule 1) or 2) is (as usual) subject to moderator judgement.

Non I support a group that had the backing of more than 90% of the native population to free their country, and I oppose the group that killed innocent civilians. Now fucking stop this is borderline harrasment.

Yep, I've heard it. We're not the PC police. People are allowed to have dissenting opinions about the whole trans-pronouns thing.

Not against site rules, even if he were. One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.
