Well, usually in a discussion forum, there's always a "forum rules" thread (like this or this, but I haven't found any here.

So what are the rules? For instance, is posting picture of boobs (or otherwise mild porn) allowed? How about swear words? Etc.

Thanks,

I don't know. Why would we need rules? So far, the board appears to work fine without them.

If DOSBox and Glidos becomes the next Visicalc, and the number of posters exploded, then we might have to introduce some formal rules of do's and dont's, but I don't see the need here and now.

Common sense mostly.

No porn although softcore is probably fine.
Mild swearing is allowed when appropriate but not excessively.

This is a technical forum not FARK. 😀

I'm sure if I post screenshots of the sex games working in Dosbox or another emulator AND my naked gf playing that it will be appreciated in the forum 😀

I have to admit that this is the very first forum I've ever seen that does not impose any rules, and still goes well. 😀

I think the issue has been settled by now. I am locking the thread now. Send me a PM if you disagree.
