On the topic of rule clarifications, I'm wondering if the rule about potentially being banned for posting content that is not family friendly could be looked at. I understand that mainly targets explicit imagery and offensive language, but there are times where the news is not family friendly, but it's within the forum's remit to discuss the news and the presentation surrounding it.
For example, it could be argued that the following video is not suitable for a family audience and contains images of an illicit act and it's aftermath.

However, it could also argue that it falls within the remit of the forum and should be allowed.
I'm not sure how would be best to phrase it, but I think there should be a clear distinction made between what is not accepted full stop and what may or may not be acceptable depending on the circumstances.
