Roll20 Policies on Groups?

Hello! I'm new and considering forming my own Group already. It's basically Fan-themed(sort of off-topic to Roll20), but it will obviously be populated by tRPGers who are on Roll20 specifically to RP. Will I have any trouble from the Mods/Devs? Are there any sorts of themes you cannot dedicate your Group too? I mean, just look at this one I was kind of chagrined to run across: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/14054/erotic-r" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/14054/erotic-r</a>... Roll20 [i]must[/i] have some hard Guidelines concerning Groups? Thanks in advance for your help! I don't want to get my Fokker all shot up in the first few days of my stay here... ~ X

Do you mean rules concerning content such as a game where players are SS soldiers tasked with killing Jews? AFAIK roll20 is not limited to only certain rulesets, meaning you are free to use it in anyway (other than articles mentioned in TOS, such as data mining players for emails and private information and such)

Your example offered is in bad taste, Michael P. The forum does not need you to name a list of offensive examples that would be allowed.
I don't see how it is in bad taste or offensive by merely stating it, simply trying to determine what level of explicitness he is concerned about. I believe it is perfectly acceptable in this context. Personally, I find the campaign he linked to be highly offensive, but then that is just me. I would never join such a game, nor a game such as in my example. If a moderator has an issue with it, that's another matter.
Without specific examples or inflamatory responses... (seriously guys, it's a help & assistance forum, not a bandstand for personal taste) There are no restrictions on what kind of game you want to play in Roll20, or age limits, or any of that in the ToS. The most adamant anyone gets about restrictions is distributing copyrighted materials and harassing others. Don't be a jerk and just use the material yourself without handing out copies of it, and you're generally fine.

A common sense rule of thumb is that any public description must be viewable by any age aka no graphic descriptions of scenes or actions. What you do inside the private group is between you and the other players. The general consensus here, gathered from the various dev and mod posts, no sharing copyright materials. If you own the IP of it completely then do what you want with it.
The public description must will be viewable by all, and must be appropriate to all. Do not upload copyrighted materials.
