1, 2, 3 - NSFW avatars are not allowed. I am not sure what NSFL means, but I assume it is a typo.

4 - there has not been any specific rule against them, however I don't see any real way to enforce such a rule as campaigns could theoretically originate offsite. Plus prohibiting them would be infringing on users' freedom of speech which is generally not something that the forum engages in

5 - The forum follows the law. I assume a copyright holder should request deletion of infringing content the same way they would request that other content be taken down. Huh is how do to it

6, 7 - I have not seen any rule above that NSFW content is not allowed. However limiting these kinds of things would be stepping on freedom of speech. Just because someone has an unpopular view does not mean they should not be able to express it.

8 - I think that would be difficult because only full members+ can have avatars, so it would be pretty difficult to impersonate via both a username and an avatar without being noticed long before you can have an avatar, so you would get negative trust, which would make it much more obvious. Also most avatars have been reused several times by several people.

9 - see 5
