Forgot to add the actual vouch, sorry

As listed before by many other members, staff, and community members the rules for and against sprays are quite vague and, for lack of a better word, puzzling. I myself never agreed with any type of pornographic, or even explicit sprays, but then again, that would be too repealing of the community member's "spray rights," let's call them. From what I have seen, there is a definite switch in mood and enforcement of the "no bad stuff" rule for sprays, especially between staff. For an example, a while ago, the rule for sprays was, in general terms, "no explicit nudity". This was then changed as time went on due to either complaints, issues, behaviors of staff, or a mix of it all. A seperate example is seen for chat. For a major chunk of time, rudeness and racism were strictly prohibited. Now, after changing and comforming of rules there's such a vague line between what is "rude" and what is "just messing around" it's almost recoiling my want to interact with the server. That shouldn't really be happening to anyone, and it's also in the realm of sprays, not just chat. Imagine if the bending of this rule got to a point where on nearly every wall there was a close-enough-to-porn spray, and it was accepted. We have to remember that there are kids who play the game, restricted or not. And even if the playerbase is old enough, the grotesque amount of these sprays could lead to a lacking drive to come back.

Now, as stated before, I'm not in the highest stature to say or even suggest, but possibly if we come back further to changing the rule to say, per chance, "no nudity (whatsoever) is allowed on sprays", this would help out with such confusion. Just a thought, sorry for the length.

-1 for punishment on Krampus's part

+1 for revision of the rule(s).
