Change the Sandbox Rules thread

Either the Sandbox rules are inaccurate or [staff member name redacted] is EDIT: confused. (<-- I was frustrated and a bit too harsh there, I apologize)

"These are the basic rules. The general site rules still apply where not overridden by the below rules."

Sandbox Rules

And yet when site rules are broken in the Sandbox section and a user reports a post, they receive an infraction and this response after asking for clarification (name has been blacked out to protect the user's identity):

If Sandbox is the equivalent of the Spam Forum and anything goes there, it should be clearly stated in the rules to prevent this from happening in the future.

if there's a specific case you want reviewed then just pm a mod and ask them to review it. i don't see anything really wrong here though

I don't have any suggestions about changing the rules, but if certain rules aren't being enforced (and it's agreed upon by multiple staff members) then the highlighted rule in particular should be changed.
