18. Any posts referring to roundies , clubbies or Bini's (or any variants of these; whether currently on sale in Australia, or on sale in other countries other than Australia) as "ugly front" etc or not being real mini's will be edited or deleted at the mods discression . Play nice people , just because someone elses mini isn't your preference doesn't give you the right to insult it .
