Following are the general policies used on this website. This is a living document, undergoing modification as events unfold.
The site is open to free speech and the sharing of files, photo’s and other information. There are specific limits to this. Those limits are specifically to protect individuals, groups and the site. I know, bad analogy, but if it’s likely to be banned on Youtube… it is here too. These limits include but are not restricted to:-
- Marketing. No marketing shall be permitted without prior approval except in a members own blog, under their control.
- Hate speech. Anything deemed as hate speech against any oppressed or maginalised group, members or individuals.
- Anything overly sexualised, other than innocent nudity, is not welcome.
- Any submission clearly identified in breach of copyright or ownership.
RIghts to edit
The team reserve the right to moderate, move, or remove any information, submission, photo or video as it deems necessary to keep the website in line with it’s policies.
Member management
A member is a registered user, whether any fee is paid, donated or not and regardless of status, including moderator and administrator. The rules for one are the rules for all. There are some specific, beneficial rules we follow:
- A member is any person whose registration on this website is accepted and for as long as that registration remains.
- An active member can be shifted in levels depending on their current activities. Such as editor, moderator, group administrator. These levels can and usually do provide enhanced services and access. Such access can and usually will change as activities of the member changes (i.e. fluid) after a reasonable time.
- Every member shall have equal rights to any related voting or polling as may be provided.
What is the problem with marketing?
Simple. Not one person advertising their own whatever has even once considered supporting our website, past or present charitable activities or helped us to develop a community. Be part of our story and we can be part of yours too. We’ve dropped any interest in member fees — that which was really needed to keep a community running — so how about a little help instead.
What is it about allowing Nudity
Keeping it honest. Just think, we are in a public space (like central CBD) There is nothing wrong with innocent adult nudity so long as no sexual activity or offence is meant. It’s the stupid way society has us to believe we need to be always dressed. Like, let’s be Victorian and think even our toes offensive. Not so, not for good old Aotearoa. I happen to like walking round without shoes. How about you? Want to start wearing a full body suit? This site is also about keeping it honest. And honestly, we’re human with skin.
