To whoever gives a damn;
In my opinion the rules are not clear. When reporting a post because it doesn't accomply with the rules, from what I can see, I get a response back that a certain type of release doesn't require a screenshot altough that is not clear from the rules.
I'm referring to this thread: https://forum.ragezone.com/f353/1-downloader-1087636/
Which I reported for not having a screenshot and receive the response: Tools do not require screenshots. Proof:
Nowhere in the Habbo Hotel section rules it says that tools don't require a screenshot as stated here: https://forum.ragezone.com/f353/rules-habbo-hotel-releases-section-241414/
The rules have always been clear and straightforward saying (along the lines of):
"Every release must include atleast 1 screenshot / snippet to provide validity of the release. Failing to do so will result into a warning and / or infraction."
This rule has been in place since dinosaurs were wiped out.
It now says:
Which is way too long and not clear. Rules should be straight forward and not bend in any way to accomodate some persons personal belief. Making exceptions on rules, especially in a release section, is a source for confusion and causes users in the Habbo Hotel section more likely to break them.
I suggest to change back the rules to how they were. Moderators of the Habbo Hotel section, supervisors and super moderators can view the post history by clicking on the last edit message for easy rollback.
Cheers,

PS: Azure emulator doesn't require a specific mention in the rules.

[19:37:14] Shoelace: Nah I don't think a screenshot is needed for a tool
[19:40:27] Wesley: people want to know what they download
[19:40:34] Wesley: and it easily helps identify copied content
[19:40:42] Wesley: as it is easier recognizable.

It now says:
Every release must atleast include 1 screenshot / image. These are mostly applied to CMS' and whole Customs & Layouts sections. Anything that also includes ingame features shall also contain a screenshots (such as for repairs or emulators), in which you shall provide some proof of some of the ingame features. If a moderator suspects that the thread doesn't have enough proof of validation, he must require the OP to add screenshots or/and snippets.
This helps partially prove the validity of threads. Failure to provide a screenshot will result in a warning and thus an infraction."
