thing is
this place seems to have a lot of rules that I was unaware of and that aren't in the FAQ.

No one told me you "shouldn't" post a picture in a new thread, there's fuck all in the FAQ about it and yet it is deemed a transgression of the unwritten laws because b3th says so.

k, still not convincing me that it's a b3ta "rule"

(King Zog of Albania lives in Kensington, Tue 26 Mar 2013, 14:05, Reply)

it's not a rule,
But it's a sort of courtesy to other members who do post from work. More happy people, more posters more fun.
And the mods enforce it based on what the majority want.

well if all the mods do is enforce the whims of the majority then maybe there should be some kind of public statement of the wishes of the people who post here

Yeah, that'll end well
Let's do a survey of what people who post on b3ta want, I'm sure plenty of serious suggestions will be raised

Most people don't not commit crimes because there are laws against them.

Pictures have never really been liked here.
Poeple just stop posting in those threads. Post pictures if you want, all that'll happen is that people will get bored of scrolling past them and wait for a new thread or start ignoring.

You lot don't really like links, we don't really like pictures. That's all there is to it, no need to get stroppy.

There is a bit about NSFW in /FAQ, but as you are well aware, /FAQ predates these pages.
