"Posting false/inaccurate materia"l is a bit vague, but it's wording is definitely not covering RP. RP isn't false, it's fictional. No one ever claims it's real nor can we reasonably assume that anyone would every interpret it is as such.

More about posting false information about yourself or others. This is especially important for account information, and for anyone giving up content such as ship models or handing over any written content that the staff officially adopts.

Almost all the Player-Based-Story-Evolution mods and games I've been a part of have done things this way or similarly. They have to cover their bases so that they:

a. Aren't held responsible for people posting material they don't own.

b. Don't lose many hours of work over a player deciding they want to retcon pieces of established fiction that have become important to persons or groups other than the original creator.

I've only ever seen it really abused once in the past decade, and while it's always a concern most devs/mods/gms have proven it won't be an issue over time.

Edit-
Just to add on: Trust, in both directions of the Player-Staff relationship, can lead to really great work and fun as long as it's not broken.

Very good points!
