POLITICAL PICTURES ARE A PICTURE OF A POLITICIAN FROM ANY COUNTRY OR PLANET

Please vote on your choice. Comments are locked, and the selection with the highest up vote count will be implemented. Voting will conclude on August 31st, with the result taking effect September 1st.

Since we are not able to implement typical polls yet, this method was suggested. Please up vote your selection, there is no way to block multiple votes but doesn't make much sense to vote to prohibit, then also vote to approve in some fashion. Down votes will not impact the result, but feel free to if it makes you happy.

Option A: YES - Prohibit Political pictures all the time. Political pictures, regardless of country of origin, will be removed immediately upon reporting or a mod locating. Posters will only receive a warning and recommendation to check the sidebar for a first offense. Additional postings by the same contributor will result in a short-term temp ban of 7 days for second offense, length doubles each additional violation.

Option C: SORT OF - Political Pictures that are relevant to current events will be allowed one posting per event. Duplicates will be removed and all other rules (spam, trolling, AI/DA, being civil) will apply. This option can be tweaked to more narrowly define "current event".

Option B: NO - Political Pictures will NOT be prohibited. Pictures that otherwise do not violate any current rules (ie spam, duplicates, trolling, AI/DA, etc) will be allowed to remain posted and open for discussion until other factors influence locking the thread.

For transparancy: I have clarified on what political pictures means in this context, and updated Option A: from "all political pictures" to "political pictures all the time". Removed the word "all" from the title.

Please DM me for any feedback you have.
