more noobish needs......

hi, i got 2 more needs.....first: it says in the *terms of use* of THW no pornographic materials and no drug content. (being unsure of how far i can ask about how this restriction is exactly meaned, makes it 5times more difficult) my question about this topic was about a map that is in developement (made by me). the map's name is going 2 be Gangster's Paradise (like the song from Tupac and Collio). in this map u will be free to choose one of some (not sure of how many there r going 2 be) unique gangster heroes (self-made models). with this hero u have to struggle for surviving in a big city. in this city there r going 2 be *normal* citizens, some junky and drunk guys, workers (like firefighters an similars), cops and other gangsters. i don't want 2 reveal 2 much of it now, but the gangster hero u r going 2 play will be making many of smuggling, drug-dealing (won't mention details about the what he is selling), smuggling, *human*-trafficking and as a pimp (so u he will make money from prostitutes, it ISN'T GOING 2 CONTAIN EXPLiCIT ADULT MATERIAL AND/OR NUDITY). as mentioned the map contains (it's not finished yet), many things @ whitch i am not sure if they would be a trespass against THW's terms of use. so i wanted 2 ask and be sure before i cross the line. the next question is again about that map. in detail: about the music i am going 2 use in there. i will use there mostly hip-hop, rap and rnb (coz it deals with gangsters). many of this sorts of music contains (or *sings*) about the topics drugs, dirty girls and prostitution and similar things....so i wanted 2 ask if it's ok 2 put import such songs 2 this map. if it's ok 2 incude this music, i will put @ the end of this map something like a credits-vid, in which u will be able 2 see the names of the songs used (as well as the names of the grps/artists who made them and the names of the guys which's models r used (like Thanks to: Kitabatake for his 9mm gun-model). the third question is, i will put units/skins/and icons in2 the map that i won't be posting be4 @ THW (this question is not concerning icons, models, skins etc. that have been downloaded from THW and r made by others). is this ok?
and the last question is, to who can i TUSTWORTHY send my map 2 hear if it's ok 2 upload (i want 2 avoid map-piracy). so i will need a few guys (staff-members of THW prefered) 2 examine my map when it's finished before i upload it (mainly examine about the content). i need more guys 2 examine it so that i get more feedback before uploading. although i got the bad feeling that the content will greatly *crash* with the terms of use but i want 2 give it a try anyway. i DON'T want 2 bring in this topics 2 THW with this map.

I'm sure they'll approve of it, because (This is what I think) the Rules might be referring to only 'In Real Life' drug dealing and such, so don't be too worried about it:)

PS: I'm really sorry if I've gotten the Rules wrong, I really hope not...
 
hm, well as far as i understood the rules, distributing/advertising sides of drgs/drug plants/drug chemistry are restricted. or talking in the forum about drugs is restricted. and what if i make *imaginary* drugs in the map? (like the skooma in Oblivion 4 from Bethesda)

to Pharao_: hm yes kinda....ur hero (avatar) in this map will do all sorts of gangsterism (containing *human*trafficking [somatemporio], make money of prostitutes, a few other criminal things). i will try 2 keep it as unreal as possible in both cases (drugs and prostitutes). in the case of prostitutes i thought of making a redlightbar (it will be a retextured cityscape building and it will say as less as possible).

but the interesting thing was that all of the answers i got be4, no1 contained a word about the *human* trafficking and prostitution.

i just need who is in the administrator/owner team of THW. so that i can email him/her the map before i upload it 2 avoid rules-violation.
