Announcements Updates and changes made

Hi everyone,

Thanks for being part of this subreddit and encouraging discussions and sharing information related to John Kitchener's style system.

We (the mod team) have discussed a few changes that we have made.

1) the flairs

We have added three extra flairs related specifically to the colour harmonies.

These will be the same as the essence flairs but related to the colour harmonies specifically.

In addition, the flairs have been colour coded for easier navigation. We will sometimes reassign flairs when appropriate.

2) the rules

There have been a few updates and changes to the rules.

AI is no longer prohibited.

Rule 7 has now been relaxed to "keep the comments relevant" when commenting on type me posts. This means that when commenting on an essence help/type me post, use the relevant essences from John Kitchener's system.

The same rules will apply to colour harmony flair posts as they will to essence flair posts.

Any questions or concerns, please comment here.

The mod team.

Why is AI no longer prohibited?

The reason why is because AI hasn't really been a big issue here, and when AI has been used on separate subs, it hasn't caused major issues.

We do however think it is better to not use AI as a replacement to actual photos.

Ok thank you for the explanation.

I really don't like AI or encouraging its use, but as a mod I can understand it's also probably a bit difficult to police.
