scans_daily members!
We just want to inform everyone of the changes that have been made to
scans_daily's
rules, so please be sure to check those out when you have the time.
There weren't too many significant changes to the user info page for the most part, but I do want to point out that we did mostly modified the posting rules so that they're hopefully more clear.
Rules of conduct are still the same as before.
Notable changes:1. Every post must have as its
primary subject at least one image from a comic book, manga, newspaper comic strips, or webcomic. Any comic-related news, interviews, videos, movie/tv trailers, essays or articles containing
no scans, etc, do not count as primary posts and a "legality scan" does not make your post legal. Please head over to
![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
noscans_daily for such discussions. The
only time we'll make exceptions is if the aforementioned supports any ideas, topics, or issues shown in any of the scans you post, but other than that, "scans for legality" is no more.
2. LJ-cuts are required for any post which contains more than one image. In addition,
any spoilers or
nsfw content must be behind your lj-cut. For
non-recent comics, you may have
one preview image no larger than
400 x 300 pixels outside the cut provided that it has no spoilers or nsfw content. Absolutely NO panel from a comic released that is the most current issue of its series may be featured outside of a cut, however unspoilery it is.
3. Any post that contains potentially
triggery scans and discussion -- such as extreme violence/gore, sexual violence, abuse, self-harm, and offensive and oppressive content -- must be posted under an adequate Warning before the cut, tagged as such, and framed with sensitivity in the post. In addition, NSFW posts need to posted with
an 18+ age restriction filter and clearly labeled and tagged as such.
Another notable change we made is that in addition to reporting any members who demonstrate any oppressive behaviour or make any discriminatory remarks to the mod team, we now allow you to report any mods who are seen demonstrating these things as well:
Note: Please contact a moderator immediately if you see another member making discriminatory remarks. Similarly, if you ever feel or encounter a mod demonstrating discriminatory behaviour on scans_daily, PLEASE NOTIFY ONE OF THE OTHER MODS DIRECTLY and we will take it from there.
I will be posting an updated version of the
posting checklist shortly after this post to further clarify posting expectations, but do check out

updated tagging tutorial if you haven't already!
One thing that we haven't been able to decide on over at the mod comm is whether or not to keep "Fanart Thursdays" here on
scans_daily or move it over to our sister comm on LJ,
noscans_daily, so we've decided to let you guys vote on that! :)
**I want to especially note that if we do decide to keep it here on S_D, this will be the ONLY time you won't need a scan for your primary post!**

Where shall we feature 'Fanart Thursdays?'

Move it to NoScans Daily. The comm could use more traffic!
