    Update the rules on the Custom Upload site.

    I feel like http://eraupload.graalonline.com/ should have a more updated list of the rules for what is, and what isn't legal for custom uploads. Right now there are a lot of missing rules.

    Stated on the upload site:

    "Heads: please don't upload heads which include hats (and no sunglasses and bandanas)
    Copyright: please don't upload ANY heads which you've not made. You will be held responsible for the images you upload. This includes the following - Pokemon, Batman, Digimon, Spongebob
    Visual Effects: No invisible, hard to see or half transparant images.
    Upload Limits: there is a limit on uploads per player, please make sure your files are ok and don't resubmit the same file again.
    Public Shields: these shield types can not be refunded."


    I have seen a lot of situations where other players have gotten their customs removed for rules that are not listed on the upload site. The first and most common ones are animal heads. I have ran into a pretty large amount of players who didn't know why their customs were removed and it turns out they had animal uploads or other non human uploads. I know the rules are here on Era-go, but the majority of players wouldn't assume that there is a larger list right here on the forums. I feel like this small fix could help the player base have a more healthier relationship with staff members in the long run. It can prevent situations in which a player unknowingly uploads an illegal custom that gets accepted by a busy PR accidently only to have the player's custom removed later by another Staff member who sees that it breaks the rules and only giving that player half of what he/she payed for.

    The full upload rules are already listed here, and was updated recently:
    https://www.era-go.com/forum/showthr...-Rules-Updates

    But I agree, it should also be listed on the website itself, I'll ask and see if we can add a link to the thread on the upload site.

    The upload rules should be completely remade. One of the rules that specifically should be looked over: "The staff team reserves the right to delete any custom for any reason."

    They are kinda outdated, they should be edited.

    I have to agree on this. Also, since Anero is gone (being the Upload Rules administrator) it is going to be quite difficult to put this into effect.
    However, if one of the staff does though with motivation.

    The only downside is that we don't know who has editing rights to this site

    This rule allows staff to delete custom due to bias and get away

    I'm pretty sure cat and dog uploads are allowed. I've got a friend who uploaded a body and a head of a dog. Admins accepted it and he got the upload
