Updates/Requests/Improvements (post all noticed ISSUES and SUGGESTIONS here)

[Sammy]

I‘d like to have a rule added to the forum rules.

As for political discussion and posts, it should also be forbidden to use this forum for religious purposes: trying to missonary people, preaching, belitteling atheists and so on. There is a religious thread in one section where people can do that, but outside of this it should be handled like it is done for politics - which is a good practice.

A link to the administrator's explanation as to why it's not possible to delete comments? It should at least be possible when the comment is the newest in the thread.

Swiss flag only appears to me when I connect with VPN. Not sure why not others but only the Swiss flag though.

I wonder if the Swiss flag is uploaded in a different server that is blocked in Turkey? That's the only explanation I've got.

Going out on a limb here but it could be one of two reasons. The flag doesn’t fit the usual size of flags and certain criteria may not be allowed on certain servers? Or the fact that this is a Eurovision site and “TRT does not plan to return to the contest and break the boycott for various reasons, citing Conchita Wurst's participation and eventual victory in 2014” and “bearded divas”… which I assume Turkey have put Conchita, Nemo, etc. in the same category. Two men in dresses doesn’t adhere to the Turkish governments acceptable prime time viewing criteria

When you imbed media from X it doesn’t accept the URLs, it only recognises the former Twitter dot com web URL

To add on that, I've just noticed that there is a good amount of flags that don't load without a VPN.

It is not really that big of a deal for me, but I just find it very curious.

Oh so it's because of VPN? I get that at work with most images uploaded on the forum

I'm fairly certain the WV region flags were uploaded with an external image site like postimgcc or imgur which is banned in Turkey afaik. I make the flags in WV and send them for upload using an image hosting site. Some of the country flags also.

We have identified the fix with the flags, all real nation flags should be fixed. I will go through and check all contest flags also.

I will investigate a fix for this

I have made some posts about this horrendous posts about Russia day on the politics forum. I want to make clear I do not wish to be silenced. I thought we had freedom of speech in Europe. Good bye.

The forum was down for a while.
