Not sure if I'd count this as a suggestion or a complaint, but I'll post it here because I want to hear everyone's thoughts.
A staff member told me that YouTube videos that are posted here that haven't been approved by a staff member get removed and sometimes warned.
And we all know that too many warnings warrants a short ban on the forums. This can lead to people being confused, as a few months ago someone got banned for posting a Teletubbies video.
I'm going to be honest and say I understand why you do it, it's because it doesn't relate to the server.
Well I think that there should be a better understanding on things, and changes.
I know you've got your own rules for the videos, MCPZ, but these are just my suggestions on making the rule a bit more fair for everyone.
I've been some people randomly post YT links, but I've been told they've been approved by staff... which I'm not too sure about that much.
I think that these videos should be able to be freely posted here without worrying about infractions.
-Song videos, this'd be good to share remixes you've found, or to share your favorite songs.
-Cartoons, yea they're nice, sweet and innocent :3
-Family friendly memes, memes with no profanity and that aren't annoying would be nice to let people post. This wouldn't count as a meme, but for example if someone wanted to post the Pingu opening, they'd be able to do so without being warned (unless it's a version with bad language).
-Videos that related to MCPZ, for obvious reasons.
These videos should have moderator approval.
-Videos that are Minecraft, but not on MCPZ. This would only be allowed if it doesn't advertise another server, example, if someone wanted to show a singleplayer world, or some sort of guide.
-Videos with minor language which is not used very often, this could go for some songs too. I think that we're all mature enough and can handle a video, but staff members will be allowed to approve the video and put a "Minor language" warning in the post, or disallow the video. For example if I wanted to post a Halsey song (half of her songs have the f-bomb in it), I or a moderator would have to put a "minor language" warning. I know the server doesn't tolerate swearing, but we're all mature enough to make our own choices on what we do or don't click.
These videos will not be allowed at all, clearly.
-Videos with a bunch of sensitive topics, a lot of sexual content, songs where 90% of the lyrics are swearing... NSFW guides, constant strong language, etc etc etc. You all get what I mean.
-Minecraft videos that promote other servers.
-Videos that call out users in the community. If you're reporting someone, use the report function rather than showing everyone the video to shame someone.
So I want to hear your thoughts and I want to know how you feel about mine.
