>EDIT: I do have some problems with this rule: "Nothing that violates US law, or anything that would be considered 'gray area'." What is a 'gray area' is, itself, a gray area. I don't think the rule itself needs changing, but it would be good if it was supported by some examples of things that people might want to do but you won't allow.

Loli/shota porn mainly. Other forms of borderline cp. The problem is, specifically stating 'hey don't upload THIS CONTENT', will result in people specifically uploading that content to buck the rules. I'll probably still add the clarification.

The gray area clause allows operational leeway.

>EDIT2: Another issue: in a lot of fonts, Ieddit (with capital i) looks very similar to leddit (with lowercase L), which is a derogatory term for Reddit on 4chan (and possibly elsewhere) (owing to the shitty rageface memes which use the word "le")

I see a lot of people suggesting this. tbh I kind of like teh association with the "leddit" term, I find it amusing. From a ui perspective, the /i/ might make more sense though.

Personally I think you should skip the /r/ or /i/ part of the paths. Always bothered me that reddit has it - communities are central to these sites so IMO they should be the first part of the path

>Loli/shota porn mainly Consider my interest in the site nullified and your morals ridiculed.

Porn is 3d pretty sure?

> It's also a good thing that (it appears that) this website is "fresh" and apolitical rather than coming forth from a political rift in another community (e.g. 8chan, gab, voat).

Only one group likes image boards anyway, this won't matter.

I think that the point of the gray area is to differentiate themselves from the kinds of things that went on at 8chan without getting banned. None of them were technically illegal but many were abhorrent regardless.

Correct. Mainly loli/shota porn, and other forms of content that was borderline-cp.

I added additional information to the rules clarifying what the 'gray area' clause was aimed at.
