# Dug was not opposed to cosplay per se, but he did not really see what benefit there was to him in it.
modedit: NSFW. Back on the naughty step for you. BTW: I'm in an office at the moment and stuff like this IS a problem. It makes it look like I'm looking at porn.

After all, he was already a bear.

# 4 hours?
Hmm, I'd have linked it - what's going on with this place of late? She's fully clothed and they aren't fleash coloured - *goes accross room* just looks like a girl in clothes or a swimsuit - doesn't look like porn - if you can't look at a girl in a swimsuit then you really didn't ought to be looking at B3ta in the first place, surely a CDC is worse?

# Well, I will have to for the next 4 hours or so won't I?
I think perhaps that the problem I have is that this just isn't really NSFW, is it? Id doesn't look like porn, not even from across the room.

I mean, I've been posting here for a month or two and it seems that, of late, things have become a bit weird.

I am not sure how the rules work any more - There's a picture of Lord Manley of Ven down there (not that he'd care) and that's okay, but Poisoned Monkey is modded for putting an entry into the 'How offensive can you be in under 5k' comp because it is too offensive?

We just need to know where we stand, it is a bit hard to have decent threads if people are scared of what they are posting. After all, it is B3ta.

I know we have to have a level of censor and I complained bout that burning kittwen and the guy who posted people he'd towed that day, but we need to have consistancy. Based on previous posts I believed this to be fine, but it evidently is not.

If I don't know where the boundaries are (and frankly I did not think this was anywhere near them) then how can we post?

What's next, CDCs?

Not moaning about this incident, just worried for the future - I can take a naughty step or two, but I'd like to see the board live on and these inconsistancies are pissing people off.


No point moaning, but please think on it.

# Completely off-topic
but are we likely to see links to the Links Board either at the top of the main board or in a decent spot in the front page? I have to go trolling down through the old news on the FP to see it... as I'm far too lazy to, a. bookmark or b. type the word 'links'... oh the effort!
Seriously though, it would be nice, loads of good stuff on there not getting the exposure it could, if properly incorporated into the site.

Yes. The links link is going to happen. Soon. We have a new nav bar in demo and it'll be pushed live soon.

I can't tell you how soon tho. But soon.

we operate a NSFW rule on this site. Breaking it will get you naughty stepped.

This is not zealous. This is to stop people posting NSFW stuff and saying, "it's ok, it'll be modded."

People are working in the office - it's embarrassing to get photographs like this appearing on your screen. It puts people off from using the site.

If you don't want to be naughty stepped then don't post NSFW images inline in the board.

# read the FAQ
basically we say no to images that look like porn.

it's not censorhip of content - we don't care if you make photoshops of nuns being raped - but if your pic looks porny rather than cartoony/comic/silly then it can get people into trouble in the office.
