Well, it's more that we don't allow one person to have multiple accounts. The easiest method for checking that is to check for duplicate IP addresses. Historically speaking, this rule is in place because of the drama of one person running two accounts and getting into arguments with themselves and otherwise causing drama. I hate drama. He's allowed to create an account. @drpaladin and other site moderators will be aware.

Myr replied to Jason D. Karl's topic in Site Help
That is not how the internet works. Google, and every other search engine, scans all the content on the internet, including this site. They determine if the content is mature or not. That has nothing to do with what the author puts as a story rating. Putting the story rating on tells the system not to place Google Ads on the content, which protects us. It also gives a reader an idea of story content.- 16 replies

Your opinion is interesting, but pointless in this context. As we get punished by a Google for placing ads on Mature content. Ergo if it is Mature, we can't put Google Ads there. And ads and premium keep the site open and mostly free. -

You are allowed to link off site in the notes. Though if the site has porn on it or illegal things then that becomes an issue. (Note that your profile, author profile and Words all have offsite link locations)

The only policy that pertains to images is Copyright. We have not set an AI rule beyond that. So far as I understand, AI generated images are more or less fair game. @Cia can weigh in though.
