Hello everyone. For clarity's sake, the mod team made a small modification of the general rules. No need to re-read the whole text again, we simply swapped "historical revisionism" with "historical denialism" in the list of "Inappropriate subjects", in order to use the legally accurate word.

Therefore, the new paragraph goes as:
- Inappropriate subjects

The USB will also neither condone nor tolerate comments that are clearly inappropriate or degrading towards any kind of group. This includes - but is not limited to - things like antisemitism, racism, religious intolerance, negationism, historical denialism, and endorsement of illegal activities such as terrorism.
We define historical denialism as the "offensive ideological denial, falsification or distortion of proven historical record".

We also clarify that historical fiction and alternate History are both allowed as long as they follow all the rules.

PS: As this message is meant to be a public announcement and not a discussion thread, the topic has been locked. I'll probably eventually remove all messages not related to the rules announcements.
