# phew!
i read in the spazz that you might not post to b3ta for a while. i'm so pleased you changed your mind, as this one's a beauty!

# I'm still not sure
But spazzing back just now I saw so many great pictures and was reminded that most people are not assholes. Why let the asinine few ruin what has been mostly a lovely experience?

I also went back over some of my own work and deleted some images that I thought might have caused offense. I'm going to try to be more careful now.

# this one isn't offensive at all - It's lovely!
Glad to see you're still around.

# i don't know
a case can always be made for both sides, but it seems that too much censure (including self-censure) stifles creativity. this place wouldn't be so great if it weren't for its wealth of creativity. therefore i usually just ignore stuff if it offends me. usually.

# That's also how I feel
I like the fact that people are free to post anything. I think we need to decide for our selves where the boundaries are. (Edit: Like when you sometimes find you need to consider the entertainment value/quality of something you made versus the shit it might bring down upon you before you post. If you think it's worth it...go ahead and post then see what happens.) If the place starts turning into ogrish.com, then it's up to me to decide I don't want to be a part of it anymore.

# since when
has things been censored on b3ta besides nsfw stuff? We've always been free to post whatever we want even if some people find it offensive. Don't go PC on me!

# There's a difference
between thinking content should be censored and deciding that a place isn't for me.

Get it now?
