While some of these rules are reasonable, several of them leave "going
overboard" in the dust.
- "Posting pictures or photographs [...] of our characters."
=> Posting pictures of cosplayers is prohibited.
- "Posting [...] tables of contents of our publications."
"Posting plot summaries [...] based on our publications."
=> Reviews are prohibited, too.
WTF?! Talk about ludicrous. o_O
