  • A quick question regarding the new "Code of Conduct"

Just out of interest, does anyone know if the terms of the new "Code of Conduct" (COC) are applicable to the lyrical content of tunes posted in the Songs Forum?
 
Especially if one posts the lyrics in the OP?
 
If not, are we allowed to post lyrics with absolutely no restrictions on content whatsoever?
 
I would personally hope the COC extends to cover posted songs and their lyrics. Otherwise, one could literally post anything, providing there is an attached song that contains those lyrics.

This is one thing we specifically discussed.  It was decided to leave it to the common sense of the poster.
 
If you have explicit lyrics and don't issue a warning and we get a complaint then we'll most likely add a language warning for you.
 
If you actually type out the explicit lyrics in the post...  then usual C of C rules would apply.
 
Edit to add: Most people in the past have been pretty good about issuing language warnings with their song posts when required. I see no reason why this should change.

I just want to know why all the Forum Hosts look like they're ready to shoot someone?

The answer to that may explain why I woke up with "Victim of Changes" in my head (hence the avatar for today.)

I am no expert on super heroes but I did watch Super Friends when I was little.  Please correct me if I am wrong but I don't think Aquaman had on board sonar as a super power.  I think those white rings emanating from his head were used to indicate that he was telekinetically communicating with the fish.
