  2. Our gif only content threads have a rule where all thumbs must be posted as a static thumbnail that does not play. Currently imagebam made a change where they no longer produce static thumbs. Therefore, please do not use imagebam, or any host, that provides live playing gifs in those specific threads. If you see your gif playing once you post, try to use a smaller thumbnail and if that does not work use a different approved host.

    Does it not make sense to you, as a poster, to provide information that would make your content visible to the largest number of people? Providing a name that is more familiar could lead to more clicks. I remember the thread you are referring to and only clicked on it because I click on as much as I can as a mod. If I had not been a mod I may have skipped right over the thread since I had no clue who they were by their real names.

    A good example is Lady Gaga. I know who that is. Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, not so much.

    If there's a notable difference you should always err on the side of what is most commonly known. And in a situation like Peyton List, if there's a distinction to be made, then that distinction should be made. Where you found the images, and how they were identified elsewhere, is irrelevant if ambiguous identification will cause confusion here at phun. I hope you keep that in mind going forward.

    I think it should stay as "Peyton Roi List". Members would know the other one more if they stayed as both "Peyton List". It separates people searching between a known and older actress and a younger Disney starlet. :2cent:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Williams_(actress) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Williams_(singer) both use same name and that never has been a problem.

    http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=1264882 http://forum.phun.org/showthread.php?t=1270163

    So if someone posts pics of Peyton Roi List as Peyton List it shouldn't be a problem as well. If someone else finds out it's not the Peyton List he thinks it is, it's only a click back to http://forum.phun.org/forumdisplay.php?f=15

    If you make a Peyton Roi List thread put the Roi or R. in the title. If you don't want to do that then don't post her pics.

    No you won't. You been told by multiple mods that it makes sense to post Roi or R. to make it clear who is in the thread. That's how we want it done. Don't matter if it's a rule or not.
