While we had refrained from putting rules in place for AI prior to this, the activity on the community had shown there was little need to worry. We watched the reaction to the recent thread pointing this out and had to carefully consider how we manage the change that majority wanted.

We've updated and clarified each of our rules that we have laid out. This covers a number of points made within that recent thread regarding AI, as well as issues and concerns we've faced before. There are also some other pre-emptive rules to prevent spam and low-effort posts.

The new full set of rules can be found here: https://lemmy.world/post/21386826 or can be found at any time in the sidebar.

To be explicit, we're implementing a ban on most AI covered in Rule 3. iii. which we've quoted below.

iii. Fan created content is allowed as long as it falls inline with all other rules, with the exception of AI-generated content, which is not allowed outside of mods (e.g. Moguri Mod).

We won't be retroactively be removing AI posts, or banning those users. However it will be enforced from today (29th October). Rules are also set and will not be updated for the foreseeable now we have clarified what is in place. We (mods) will not be discussing them any further.

Community Rules (lemmy.world)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by helloharu@lemmy.world to c/finalfantasy@lemmy.world

Community Rules

Community rules are in place not only to protect the community, but also to make it as enjoyable place for everyone who wishes to be part of it.

TL;DR

  1. Be civil and respectful.
  2. Mark all spoilers.
  3. No spam or low-effort posts.
  4. No NSFW content.
  5. Keep it Final Fantasy related.

Community Rules In Full

1. Be civil and respectful

Having a civil and respectful community is vital for creating an environment for all to enjoy. The below will not be tolerated under any circumstances;

  • i. Abusive language or personal attacks, whether you are the instigator or not.
  • ii. Hate speech in any form, including but not limited to; racism, homophobia and transphobia.
  • iii. Doxing, or witch-hunts will not only result in a permanent ban, we will report offenders to admins.

2. Mark all spoilers

Final Fantasy may have been around for 40 years, but there are still large numbers of people who are new to a particular game or the franchise as a whole. Ensuring those who are new to Final Fantasy, are also able to enjoy the games they play is important. To help with this, we have the following rules around spoilers;

  • i. Spoiler protections will be enforced across all titles, no matter the age of the game. This includes oft discussed aspects, such as character deaths in FFVII and Rebirth.
  • ii. Posts containing spoilers must be labelled, and titled as such.
  • iii. Images that contain spoilers should be marked as such. Because Lemmy currently does not provide spoiler specific functionality, spoiler image posts should be marked as NSFW.
  • iv. Remakes and Remasters are not excluded from these rules.
  • v. Upon the release of a new game, a Mega Thread will be created for all discussions related to that game. For a month starting from the release date, any new discussion posts will be removed and creators will be directed to the Mega Thread. An exception will be made for artists and cosplayers as long as the content does not contain spoilers.

3. No spam or low-effort posts

Spam is the bane of any communication method, and community. Low-effort posts

  • i. Advertisements, and posts with referral links will be removed.
  • ii. Promotional content, or offsite promotion, outside official streams is not allowed, with the following exceptions;
    • Charity streams.
    • Videos or other content documenting events such as a Fan Fest or conference, meetings with actors, producers, or interviews.
    • Content which shows off non-standard content like glitches, errors, etc.
    • Giveaways are discretionary and must be approved by admins and moderators beforehand. Any that are not approved will be treated as spam and promotional material.
  • iii. Fan created content is allowed as long as it falls inline with all other rules, with the exception of AI-generated content, which is not allowed outside of mods (e.g. Moguri Mod).
  • iv. Shitposting will fall under low-effort rules.
  • v. Though memes can be considered low effort, we will allow them at the discretion of mods. However, you should consider using !ffmemes@lemmy.world for meme content instead.
  • vi. No "Mods, can you please..." or sidebar flavour text suggestion posts. (If you need to talk to the mods, message us.)

4. No NSFW content

BONK

5. Keep it Final Fantasy related

Off topic or unrelated content to Final Fantasy is not allowed. We include other Square-Enix titles such as Kingdom Hearts in this rule, so users should other communities such as !squareenix@lemmy.world and any other available franchise communities.


We (mods) reserve the right to alter and enact these rules as required. This may mean adding, changing or removing rules as the community changes.

They were pre-order bonus items for Endwalker. A great addition for anyone that missed them and wants that boost.

Full Text:

Wait, wait, wait! Everybody calm down! There seems to be some misunderstanding, but I'm not retiring from video game music work!

I'm going to cut back a bit on my video game music work because I want to have more time to make the music I want to make. It would be difficult for me to take on the entire soundtrack of a video game because the time commitment for composing would be too long, but I would like to continue to work on jobs such as one theme song.

So, we are waiting for your offer to Nobuo Uematsu con TIKI!

Remember that time when Peter Molyneux said he wasn't going to speak to the press or about games anymore?

"I understand that people are sick of hearing my voice and hearing my promises. So I’m going to stop doing press and I’m going to stop talking about games completely."

I don’t either but this is such a great discussion. I’ve come across quite a few interesting sounding games here. Thanks OP.

[-] helloharu@lemmy.world 28 points 1 year ago

It is an honest shame, there was a lot of talent brought in, but honestly not surprised it ended this way.

[-] helloharu@lemmy.world 52 points 1 year ago

Sounds pretty manipulative to blame the fallout of their own shitty decisions on others.

[-] helloharu@lemmy.world 45 points 1 year ago

Tough, China already called it.

[-] helloharu@lemmy.world 37 points 1 year ago

Live-action? Oh no.

Well that’s disappointing, but glad the lemmy.world team are making sure they are on top of it and keeping transparency with all that you do. Thank you.

[-] helloharu@lemmy.world 26 points 1 year ago

I absolutely adore that game, but in all honesty I’m not sure I want a straight adaption. When I finished the game I was left feeling like wanted more beyond the game, I want to see more of the world and lore that the writers built.

[-] helloharu@lemmy.world 54 points 1 year ago

So glad I’m not going through this any more. I think I’d rather be single than do online dating again.
