I believe that VEF has survived for over 10 years because it has some reasonable Rules, and every post is reviewed for compliance by a Moderator. While some new members may find this quite restrictive (compared to the wild-wild-west approach taken by other forums), it has served VEF well.

The VEF Forum Rules can be quite a lot to absorb in one sitting, and many new members are amazed to learn that each sub-section of the Forum has another set of unique rules. You have to look at the "sticky" threads that appear at the top of the main page for each sub-section. For instance . . . . here are the Model Identification Request section rules:

As far as duplicate images are concerned, I think you will find the rules to be most closely monitored in the Model threads. Unfortunately, some of them have dozens of pages, and it can take a long time to scroll through them to find out if your offering is more complete, or of better resolution than a post that already exists. Still, if you are truly interested in making a meaningful contribution to that particular thread (rather than just garnering "Thanks" to enhance your reputation), you will take the time to complete some due diligence.

When making posts to most threads in General Modern Topics, etc. (like the MILFS & Mature Ladies thread) just about anything goes. These threads are simply too big to scroll through, and many of the photo-sets already posted do not include the model's name (so a search will not produce results).

Ultimately, your posts will likely survive if you follow the rules, and make an effort to avoid duplicating images in the model threads.
