I am knew to this site and I was wondering if (Ret) Col. Kroenen's signature(i.e. Swastika) is what is acceptable on this site? If this is tolerated then all other rules need not apply.

What is acceptable and what isn't? Colonel Kroenen, as a former site admin is responsible for his own publications, and are subsequent to change at his fancy. To answer your question though, yes, it is tolerated, otherwise it would have been dealt with a long time ago.
And no, this most certainly does NOT mean that the rules 'need not apply', which is precisely why people have been banned for breaking them.
Besides, I don't see where in the rules it says 'No graphics depicting that in nature of nazism, swastikas et cetera' ... Do you?
However, up-bra pictures of bikini models might be a tad borderline.
Welcome to the boards.

Welcome to the boards. Bikini models a tad borderline vs. graphics of nazism, swastikas, etc. I need not say anymore...if you find looking at beautiful women offensive vs. a swastika...LMAO. (You definitely "walk alone" on that one in my world) I didn't mean for the rules to be disregarded all together, I just thought it was funny(i.e I can get banned for fighting, spamming, etc, but I can advertise a symbal that symbolizes such hate and is quite frankly an embaresmant to the human race. If anybody had a problem with my Bikini pic, I would remove it without a problem but if the above is tolerated, you have got to be kidden me.

The reason it is tolerated is because The Colonel no longer resides here, the sig was created by The General (co-admin) as a tributeand the Sig isn't just a swastika, it's a picture of his "character" on this board, Colonel Rupert Kroenen from the Hellboy comics and films. If it was just a swatika or other Nazi symbols then it could be considered against the rules but as it stands it's a picture of a character from a popular motion picture and as such is fine by me.
Personally I think the girl in the sig is hot, and have no objections to it, although I can't speak for the female members of this board, (of which there are many), and the last thing I want to start is a battle of the sexes sig war where the girls have nekkid pics of men and the guys have nekkid pics of girls, so we will have to wait and see.
Oh and welcome to the board by the way.
