Removed some more inappropriate and spam images, handed out more 24-hour bans for spam over the last 15 pages of activity.
Some notes:
Pictures of Tali are okay. It is a Tali thread, after all. But the regular forum rules, still apply. That means no swearing, no inappropriate content, no spam.
Meme images are spam. Images should not be the only content in a post (excepting Tali pics, of course), and images should never be used to replace discussion or conversation.
Don't respond to trolls. Not only is that exactly what the trolls want--a reaction to their douchebaggery--but in popular threads it completely disrupts the thread when everyone and their dog starts responding and crying to people to get back on topic and don't respond to the troll and telling the troll to leave. Ignoring the troll works WAY better and makes him much easier to spot.
Quoting inappropriate images equals posting those images; don't do it. Not only are you contributing to spam and posting those images yourself, you are making it that much harder for me to find and remove those images. I have to do that stuff manually and it gets really annoying when a bunch of people quote it to say how inappropriate or bad it is.
If you see stuff like this happening in your thread, for Pete's sake, report the darn thing!! I've gotten one complaint about this thread, and that was for the flag-burning pic. I didn't get one for the BBW pics, the bull defecating pic, or others even though they were off-topic, spam, and highly inappropriate for our community. So please, for the longevity of this thread and future ones of this nature, take responsibility for your thread and don't be afraid to speak up and let us know when something sketchy goes on. The "Report" button only moves so fast.
Also to clarify another comment I made: if this thread gets locked for too much spam, chatter, and nastiness, other character threads will not automatically be locked as well. But, because of the community's inability to police itself in one character thread, the others will be under increased scrutiny and it will take far less nonsense for us to consider them for locking as well.
You, and all the other threads, are safe.
