Haha yeah, nothing like a bit of sarcasm, but seriously, I doubt the only person who would do that would be someone similar to McLovin from Super Bad.

In response to the announcement about the child porn, what is considered child porn? Like does the breasts, penis, bum or vagina have to be showing? Or can it be like a girl in her bra and thong, or a guy in his boxers shirtless? I automatically thought that anyone posting ANY sort of nude/erotic photo would be banned anyway? I found the announcement to be very vague, and I wasn't aware that this forum had a child porn problem until now. Sure the occasional person may show their genitals on a "cam2cam" with someone, but is this not alowed, and what kind of moron would spread this on the FORUM? I think some clarification on what is/isn't child porn would be of great help to the forum members, or just me.
Hey,
The announcement was with regards to a problem we've had, clarifying that those spreading child porn will be dealt with using the harshest of measures, up to and including reporting them to their IP if it becomes a serious problem.
As far as the legal definition of child porn, it would be displaying genitalia, the bust of a girl, or the buttocks of either gender (scientific and politically correct, whoee!). However, images of under 18s in thongs or other similarly compromising positions distributed without their consent will be dealt with. If it is distributed with their consent, that still shouldn't be happening but the measures taken will be less stringent.
I am not 100% sure what we would do if images of an under-18 were distributed with their consent, I can't think of what rule specifically bans that, but I do remember a 16 year old was posted in her bra before and 8F8 specifically banned the members, perhaps it is reasonableness, you know what's appropriate and what's not. I'll get clarification on what happens if a member were to willingly distribute a picture of him or herself in underwear, but all of the others were still against the rules, we wanted to concentrate on the issues focused on in the announcements in order to show how serious we were about the issue.
I disagree, the announcement had a purpose. And also, the announcement was spurred by, but not because of the issue. One of the things we had to clarify was that since you are "legal" in Britain I think that child pornography would be defined as under 16. I wanted to clarify that for the purposes of this forum 18 and under was defined as child pornography, as much of this forum falls in the 16-17 range its actually quite pertinent.
I also periphally wanted people to know that bullying along with this could be punished and all that. Plus certain people weren't thinking that what they were doing was considered child porn. But the main thing was to clarify that if the British limit for child porn is 16, we will be enforcing an 18 and under definition of child pornography.
Ive seen some sigs with a certain bear in that is associated with child pornography so it's good that they are/have been dealt with. Im not talking about Winnie The Pooh either.
The name of the bear along with text saying something about him liking little girls is obviously sick. I just wonder about the mental health of the users who have them
18 is the legal age for pornography to be filmed so under 18 stuff is classed as "child" pornography.

The law covering England and Wales defines a child as up to and including the age of 13. From 14-18 they are classed as a young person.
In any event it doesn't matter whether it is a child, young person or an adult there really isn't any room for porn on the forum and it has always been the practice to ban people who post it in my experience.
