I've had to remove the music thread where members were posting YouTube videos of songs. Apparently hosting screenshots of videos from YouTube (which is a Google website), violates their terms of use for Google Adsense which the forum relies heavily upon. Go figure. Due to some ill-advised postings by other members in the past, the forum has received several of these warnings, and they cannot be ignored. With 200 pages and hundreds of hours of videos to wade through to try and identify which videos were causing the Google Adsense censors to have issues, unfortunately the only pragmatic course of action was to remove the entire thread.
Is this going to cause a problem with pics of Libertads or other coins like some SBSS rounds? Ok, I realize American Puritanism can be a bit nonsensical, but "strategically covered nudity"? ... Isn't that what we call clothing? And I just realized I go out in public naked with only some clothing to cover my nudity.
How does that hold with the other YouTube clips? What content ,in clear terms, do we need to self censor for you ( or report?)
I went looking for some info on innapropriate content for the Google ad network, and found this from Google (you'd have to view it from the perspective of what an American would consider offensive, or what some would feel motivated to report to google):
Seriously Good Luck??? If everyone contributing a bit, I guess there will be a lesser work for the admin to do the work. We are here to enjoying the forum. All we need is to report if we find the materials is unsuitable. How hard is that??? Now the music thread is gone, just because of minor issue.... What benefits us if the whole forum has been shutting down???
Yeah, gearing up for a financial hit. They just want a piece of the action, like any mafia I guess. Too bad GP has a negative concern.
My point was mainly that the forum has a lot of political topics, and people bashing political parties they don't like, which could be seen as political intolerance - and this will never end (for the record I don't think it should end, or that there is anything wrong with being intolerant to the liberal party)
Any other idiots want to post the same sort of material that just led to alor getting a week long ban?
Which were the good ones (don't post any actual vids though) I'm currently liking The Devil Makes Three. Not sure if many people know them.
Yes. I too was only looking at that stuff for the purposes of research too! I only went searching for it so that I wouldn't accidentally stumble on it.

Amazing considering YT has been profiting from my label's copyrights for over a decade now, to the tune of at least US$2.5M since 2004 if you base plays on iTunes rates to purchase. Every time we send 'em a legal notice they say that they have no control over users' posts - so who gets paid for the advertising put in front of our bootlegged tunes uploaded without our consent I wonder.... ? Double standard ba5tards. You can thank them for the demise of the independent music sector then - and Taylor Swift.
