Does this mean that UK citizens will no longer be able to acess our site?
People attempting to connect to the forum with a UK IP address will be unable to do so.
People stating they are based in the UK will have their account suspended.
Obviously we can't know if someone based in the UK is using a tool to mask their location and doesn't tell us, but we won't condone such actions.

So, basically, if this law takes effect then those who live in the UK will have no other choice then to stay silent about it.

The situation will affect a very small minority of IPs currently visiting our forum, according to our statistics, and we will keep an eye on any legal challenges that might allow us to relax the rules.
