Website Ban: DoYouHaveEpilepsy - 08-21-2007

It has come to my attention that several members have either been posting links in their signatures or in posts to *.DoYouHaveEpilepsy.***. While most members would not be affected by what this site displays, members with epilepsy could be seriously effected, in which the worst case scenario would be that they would have a seizure. For all of you members asking, "Well, what is epilepsy?", I will try to explain it in simple terms; epilepsy is a medical condition where somebody is sensitive to quickly flashing colors. For example, a website that blinks from white to black, or from red to green. If a person with epilepsy watches something like described above, they could experience a mild to severe seizure, which is when someone's body locks up and they are unable to move. Because of this, sites such as DoYouHaveEpilepsy pose a threat to members who are inflicted with epilepsy.

If you are found with a link to this site in your signature, or something similar, you will be warned by our moderation team. If you don't remove it from your sig within 24 hours of the warning, you will be issued one infraction. If you ignore the warning, another infraction will be given, etc until you decide to remove the link.

If the offending link is found in posts, it will be edited out by the mods.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Ugg I hate that website. At least it's not like that Rick Roll thing you can't escape from.
I like all the other websites connected to that one like the "you are mighty" and such, but this one isn't funny at all. I'm glad a ban was put up.

Good idea blocking the website name.
And can people besides mods change the name of new threads?

Corey has kindly added the site address to the block list.

Generally yes, but they are on tiny screens. I mean, the DS screen is only like 3" across. However, viewing it on a large screen is different, it could trigger the seizure.
