general questions Weapons and Outbreaks

[Critical Mass 178]

Now the weapon rule to me was not exactly understood, am I not allowed to show weapons or are they just not allowed to be bloody.

 

And another thing, is it possible if a person with high level of skill can decrypt a password.

 

Lastly, had you have any cases of let's say a virus attack in anywhere of your site.

 

if the answer of at least one of these questions is suppose to be private I understand.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean. If it's the NSFW rule that you're talking about then I'm sure showing weapons is fine. It's just excessive violence/ blood that isn't allowed to be shown.

It is not possible to "decrypt" a password here, as they are not encrypted. The storage method is known as a "one-way hash"; it uses an existing algorithm such as sha to take an input (password), salt it, and then one-way hash it. The only possible method to breach an account is if you have a virus, or if the person bruteforces it. The last method will take several centuries though.

Can you elaborate on that sentence please. Are you stating that you believe that MLP Forums has a ban on weapon discussions?

Well I'm just asking about let's say bloody or extremely viscous looking weapons.

The rules state that a little blood is fine. Weapons in and of themselves are perfectly fine too. But the devil is always in the details. I am aware of several instruments of war that probably are not suitable for posting here. If you have anything that you feel is on the edge of being acceptable, please contact a Moderator.
