Also makes forum owners (of sites older than 3 years) directly liable for user uploaded content. Before you could still blame it on the user and remove. This included but is not limited to images/videos/music/files/sprites etc.
Anyway apparently EU countries have 2 years to apply this to national law so you have some time.

Where is Otland hosted actually? Might be worth considering moving it outside EU.
Just putting this out there. That's what happens when mostly old ppl get to vote on "new" technology that is the internet.

EU lacks a "fair-use" law like yours. We basically only have green light for educational purposes etc. But Fair Use for parodies etc is not necessarily existent :/
Not in the form like in Merica.

Anyway @xKrazyx either host in US (the user's IP does not matter at this point I believe) or if one wants to keep the good ping to Europe go for Switzerland. They have strong privacy laws and don't abide EU laws but do their own thing.

Nothing to do with Cipsoft. You would know that if you at least read the original message by OP before commenting on the topic. The 25% indeed still visit this forum ;)
