the difference does not justify the double standards: something that is "strictly prohibited" should be just that, not ignored for 2 or 3 related games but not for others. any discussion of other MMO's could be construed as related or not, depending on the context.
this is clearly related due to having a common engine, and many might contrast the differences between the two games implementation.
I understand the need and reasons for rule 15, but it needs revision to fucntion properly. as it is, at least two societies are effectily banned from displaying their Soc names. SL was discussed in its own sub forum effectivly for a while. why not ease up the rule for "off topic", with maybe a caveat for overt promotion, ie permit information and news relating to MMO and RCEs?
