    We've all been discussing this in the pages before- but I don't blame you for wanting to plunge into all that again lol.
    Basically, it's because the moderators have to screen each photo posted on the sandlot to check it for any information so they can take it down as soon as possible, and it adds a lot onto their work pile. :)

    I also think, as another reason to what @GemTheGerbil was saying, pieces of artwork could have personal info such as signatures, that then might have the person's name or something that people can trace. :)

    A Troubling Proposal with some very specific rules:

    We allow pictures of rabbits, aka bunnies, cause bob.
    Hamsters should be prohibited, cause hams.
    Monkey pics should be allowed, but only if they are cheeky.
    Cow photos are allowed, but posting steak photos is an automatic ban.
    Gorn are prohibited, but that's true everywhere.
    Photos of abs are not acceptable except for those with 05-packs.
    Rats are allowed but only if their picture is taken in a maze, with cheese.
    No one named Eric can have their picture taken, unless they was Eric before this rule.
    Pictures that are razzing anyone should not be allowed, but ones that razzle-dazzle are OK.
    Photos of bells are not allowed, except when the bell is the star of the photo.
    Dad pictures should not be allowed except for admins.
    Kracken photos can be released when you hear the go ahead to release them.
    Troll photos do not exist, so this is not an issue.
    Instructional learning photos are OK for your entire life.

    All other photos are prohibited.

    The fact that I can't tell if this is legit or not makes it even funnier

    if someone created an original skin, can they post that on forums/wear it in game, or does it come under the category of banned art? i’m guessing not because it’s not irl art which i am gathering is the problem, but i am just wondering.

    The admins are reviewing the art rule so I'm guessing this will be allowed. I don't have any authority but it seems like it'd be fine.

    Pictures of diamonds are OK, but kissing them is banned.
    No matter the size of the hat, make sure they aren't a boy scouts hat in the image.

    Don't shoot a photo of your hedgehog, unless he/she is colored yellow, is going super, or has chaos emeralds around him.
    Kangaroo images are OK.
    Don't take a picture of yourself. You might get in trouble!
    Don't rip half of your image apart. You might wanna have a memory of that!
    Images of blocks are OK,
    even if these boys have armor on.

    I’m 90% sure he will but I’m not sure I think the rule only applies to other people. They can’t scan every channel to make sure it’s family friendly. c0w runs the server so he knows he is going to keep it pg.

    can someone tell me when we get a for sure yes or no on the art rule? and can i still post my book that i am writing, its not vary good, and i keep forgetting to work on it so i cant really post the chapters anyway, and my mom helps me proof read it so there wont be anything unproved by the sandlot rules.
    (I know that right now the art rule is no, but i think someone said the mods will talk about it, and i never sign my art unless its a card. and i always edit my pics so i can post them on hear, i know the sandlot is a super safe place, its the only server i really enjoy playing on, and i love seeing others art, i understand from the mods point of view about how u can have a school bus or address in the pic, and how if they do keep it mods will have to check everything, but i also think that art is one think everyone likes to do, like i do, and its hard to show my rl friends my art now. i hope i am not sounding rude or anything, or taking up much time, i am super great full for all the helpers and mod for helping with the sandlot all the time, and who spend so much time working to help everyone on the sandlot!)

    On the part about stories, I’m sure you can still post those :) Currently it’s just no real life pictures that’s you've taken.

    If the policy changes, we will let everyone know. Until that time, the stated policy is still in effect.

    Yes, please continue with your book!

    Hey I know this might sound kind of stupid, but does this just apply to real life art or also to digital art? I know a couple artists here mostly do digital and that would save their threads.
