A7. Do not post inappropriate content, links, or images – Images or links with inappropriate content or pictures,, gore, nudity, obscenity or annoyance such as never ending pop-ups are not allowed. (Including Signature images linked to the websites). The only exception to this is when posting an outside link such as a video or image where content is mildly sexual/offensive but suitable for 14 -16 years old. This is allowed but it must be a link or in a spoiler with a suitable warning in bold . IT MUST NOT BE POSTED DIRECTLY ONTO THE FORUM and must have a warning in bold above it e.g Warning - this link/spoiler contains content which may not be suitable for younger members.

Does this mean we're allowed to post porn? rofl :S

Mild

However I would personally think mild is Page 3 (Not porn but kinda nudity).

Needs to be a bit clearer I think, but yeh 'Mild' imo is topless?

Soo....


Warning ~ The following contains mildly sexual photography, young un's don't peek

To be honest, it's probably allowed anyway. Considering the private areas are covered...

Fit :D

Edited by Catzsy [Forum Super Moderator]: Please do not spam the thread. Thanks.

My opinion is that porn would definitely not be allowed as it is strictly 18+ and the rules say mild content suitable for 14-16 years old.

As far as the 'topless' goes again, my personal opinion is, that it's not mild and it is specifically excluded in the rule.

As far as the picture in the spoiler from OOchips goes it is borderline as it doesn't actually show any body parts in full so I will leave somebody else to judge that.

No nipples= safe

Where would you be posting porn anyway :S

But that has nothing to do with the topic of the thread, Dom - it is about the rules not girls bodies. :P

But everyone knows porn sites are there so whats the point posting pictures or naked women if you dont have to. It'll just cause an uproar cause half the forum will probably be split on the matter

Porn is strictly forbidden on the forum. I'm sure most users would use their common sense before posting anyway.

And you allowed my slightly off topic post because you're really secretly Bi?

Also I thought we could post mildly sexual things anyway

If you want to see mildly sexual then you go to a beach....

Pardon? Could you explain that remark please. Your post was on-topic as you were asking whether the picture would be allowed. Yes I do think you could go to a beach and as Matt says it is pretty much common sense.

Border line mild I will say:

Warning - this link/spoiler contains content which may not be suitable for younger members :(

The odd thing is that the staff are forced to check for porn xD.

As long as all three parts are covered sufficiently then I think it is enough...

so what difference has the rule change done rli? :S

If the person you are going to post is mostly covered up, then that is acceptable. Although there is line and the Moderators will see whether its acceptable or not.

It has basically re-clarified the position as it was but seemed to get 'lost' in the condensing of the rules i.e. you are allowed to show images with swearing and mild content provided it is a link/spoiler with a warning. It is now back in the rules.

Can we extend it to fully topless? The only difference is that we are forced to put it in spoilers when it isn't even sexually offensive, much. And seriously, what percentage of the forum is not going to open the spoiler anyway?

For what sensible reason? How would it postively contribute to the forum?

wasn't that already allowed as people used to have them in their sigs :S

Can of worms, slippery slope ^

Re Catzsy's edit, obviously I didn't see what he put before it was changed but do we have to put those exact words as the warning?

this is just like a modfest in this thread.

most people can judge themselves whether things are mildly sexual or clean, i don't see why, when we aren't staff, that we should have to put

HI THIS TEXT IS RED AND BOLD AND THEREFORE THIS CONTAINS A RUDE PICTURE *+*=

i think

"I warn you, this picture could be mildly explicit ;)" would do.

The colour, font, format or whatever you want to call it really has no effect.

i kinda feel a bit insulted at how we're being told what's explicit and what isn't. we all have common sense, no matter how stupid some people are on this forum. i'm not disabled irl nor am I a "******" so I'd prefer to leave the judging of whether something is explicit or not to my own concious and common sense, however, if another person finds it explicit, or it is clearly explicit then sure, do something about it.

idk if that post made any sense at all but yh brb going to get a coffee

can we have some not safe for young people tags, e.g.

[nsfy]<picture>[/nsfy]

Typing out that message takes ages.... It also means that if posting of sexual images gets over the top then you can disable all of them with ease...

I will make this easy for everyone. The "Warning" you have to post is an example as it clearly says. You can put whatever words you like as long as you make it clear that the pictures or contain under the spoiler is whatever.

ikr :8

i like 00chips idea of the bb tag.

you could change the word "spoiler" to "Possible inappropriate content" but under a new tag.

edit @ matt garner

Therefore making that post fine.

Correct.

I just made a useful ammendment which people who have already posted may not notice so I will repost it so you do...

Unless of course VBs BBcode system is rubbish

I think perhaps, that if 00chips' picture was mildly inappropriate that you should see some avatars that people have, including staff and get them sorted too. ;)

Good thing that the teddy bear in my signature has it's breasts covered :P

Ontopic:

I think brandon usually has some sort of sexually provocative thing in his signature/avatar....

This is what he put before:
Warning ~ The following contains mildly sexual photography, young un's don't peek

So judge for yourself whether he was taking it seriously or not?
Also surely it is easier just to C&P from the rules? Anyway Matt has said it is fine provided it is a sensible warning.

Catzy, it's a warning, whether he's being serious or not is another matter, he still warned.

Why should we go trapsing to the rules to get something which we can simply type. "Warning may be seen as inappropriate", I know you're trying to enforce rules or whatever but we're not vegetables and we have own our hands to type with and our own brains to thing about whats acceptable and what's not.

Just the way I see it anyway
