That includes swearing.
Don't try to moderate swear words, as long as they aren't used for derogatory purposes.
There should be rules in this site that prevents minimodding.
@WinsWings It's a trademark. It isn't going too far, because they have the legal rights to crack down on anyone infringing their trademarks. That includes suing anyone who infringes their trademark, and potentially siphoning their money (in some cases).

Re: The only thing you're not allowed to do is use the name Honda on your title or description, so long as you don't mention the brand name on the post it won't cause any problems.
I don't get why this is even a thing though to be honest, how can user creations provide any legal ground whatsoever for suing a company? And why isn't this mentioned in the rules?

It's completely okay to use the trademark's name. The trademark's logo is not okay, however .
.
You see, the Honda logo is a trademark. It works differently from a copyright, and so do fair use laws.
Basic fair use laws for trademarks would be using said trademarks with modifications enough to not be recognizable as the original trademark.
While copyright's basic fair use laws would just be criticizing/transformative of the copyright. Also applies to trademarks in certain scenarios.
See: Fair Use of Trademarks (Intended for a Non-Legal Audience) Trademark Use
.
If you wanna use the Honda trademark without extensively modifying it, you have to:
-pay Honda to use it legally
-just don't infringe their trademark
@HalfBoiledDetective Jolly Rogers wasn't adapted by VFA-103 until VF-84 disbanded. The first usage of Jolly Rogers after VF-84's disbanding was on the Hornet (I don't know which variant).
@SheriffHackdogMCPE Nah bro. Toyota and other brands have the legal rights to threaten to sue anyone who doesn't use their trademark with prior permission.
.
When I mean legal rights, I mean that it's completely okay.
It's the trademark owners' fault if they don't notice anyone infringing their trademark rights.
It's not exactly that Honda™️ stuff is necessarily allowed (mere mention of the trademark Honda™️/making a replica of any Honda™️ in this game doesn't put you in big trouble), it was the fact that a user posted a replica of a Honda™️ with the manufacturer's badge on it.
.
Now I'm no lawyer here, so don't take my word for it.
I only knew this second-hand, I might be wrong.
.
Basically, Honda's logo is trademarked. To use it legally, you have to pay Honda™️ a sum of money to use said badge. It's like asking for permission with extra steps. Most racing games go this way to legally display the Honda™️ badge in their games.
Otherwise, using it with minimal alteration that is still as recognizable as the Honda™️ logo would likely get you a class action lawsuit up your door, depending on how you used it.
Now if that case was to happen, the user would have to pay Honda™️. But I digress.
.
Now this user (I won't tell who for reasons) used the Honda™️ badge on their build without asking permission beforehand, and Jundroo™️ takes responsibility because they're the people in charge.
Honda™️ threatened to sue Jundroo™️, and so that build is now deleted to avoid a possible lawsuit.
.
TLDR: Honda™️ badge trademarked, usage without prior permission is illegal.
Build with Honda™️ badge deleted, no more trouble.
It's called digital camo, but sure. Looks very lovely.

Love how you made the DSI with the stock canopy. Very good!
Amazing. Love this.
@IICXLVIICDLXXXIIIDCXLVII You sure? Last time I remember, you can use trademarks in a conversation, as long as you don't use them as a predicate.

This could be really useful for things like mechs, Gundam type shit. You think?

Nay, SpicyNinja clearly owns that title.
