Well. You read 'Fox's announcement already. If not, go read it now.

What does this change of situation mean for you? According to Lifejournal's rules, the communities revert to the jurisdiction of the person running the place. Most of you are aware (or should be) from earlier chats and the time before 'Fox's imposed almost leave of absence that the legal situation regarding this kind of platform isn't all that easy here.

So, I need to rely on you that you stay civil, do not post anything unacceptable, etc. To protect myself, I will keep on the ban on NC-17 content past 14 July, even though I will close the communities for people under 18 on that date. Sorry, I know a few of you had plans in that direction, but it's just too hot for me, legally speaking. Keep the sex and violence vague. Well, particularly the sex and the graphic violence. Yes, that also means I'm making changes to the second plot. I will also keep my eyes open looking for a possible alternative platform that will permit us to play all out without putting me in any precarious situation legally. Decision on that can and will be made when I've found a potential one.

My leadership style is very different from 'Fox's, so be warned. We're switching from near-democracy to almost-despotism. That doesn't mean I won't listen to your input… You know I'm usually online, jump me if you want/need something.

'Fox will continue on as a mod, and so will Muri, so one might say the power has just shifted.
Remember I'm still not all that familiar with the Dreamstone plot, so try to get it over with. I'll not be the greatest help there.

Thank you.

P.S.: Anyone who DARES congratulate me or anything will regret it. That is a promise.

Relieved, because a situation I've been struggling with for a long time has been resolved. (Yes, I didn't mention those thoughts before. I didn't dare to and that probably made it feel all the worse.)

*hugs Fox*

Keep the sex and violence vague.

Nooo, we were practicing so much too! ;) Also, my problem is that when it comes to darker things I'm never sure about ratings. I'll bring up my nightmare plans in chat.

Woo! I'm in favour of this, in this situation. I mean, that's the RL situation in my country except feedback has little effect... Also, I hope the 'jump me' was not innuendo. ;) *points to user account*

As far as I see, a despotic mindset works pretty good for online modding. S'all good.

Have there been any posts that are close to crossing the sex/graphic violence line? I don't think so (though I haven't read all the nightmares), but it'd be good to have a benchmark.

That said, I doubt this is a rule we'll have trouble with.
