Posted: Tue Oct 11, 2011 12:45 am Post subject: Posting images - a clarification on the rules |
|
|
|
I've posted this many times in different places, but there are still a lot of you who don't understand the rules about posting images.
You may not post any images that are provocative, lewd, or vulgar.
A few specific examples:
- No animated images of women that focus on their breasts or butts.
- No images of women in g-strings or tiny bikinis/lingerie. (newly added from old guidelines, but needed due to some of the extreme g-string pics I've seen posted.)
- No sexually suggestive images.
These are not the only type of images that are considered inappropriate. If you don't understand the rule, don't post any images.

I've received a few PMs from members who are confused about the 'No images of women in g-strings or tiny bikinis/lingerie.'
This is a little more stringent than the old guideline that a women must be 'wearing a top and bottom'. However, it was needed due to the extreme g-string pictures I've seen that are inappropriate for this forum. |

| Still some confusion, so I'll open this up to questions for a little while. |

I know you are just trying to be 'funny', but the answer is no.
As I said 'These are not the only type of images that are considered inappropriate. '
Now any serious questions?

It may seem silly, but how about an example of what is acceptable so we have some sort of a reference. I saw some pics removed earlier that kinda surprised me as they've been acceptable in the past. And I honestly didn't see what was wrong with them. But I didnt know the rule adjustment either. _________________

Are you talking about the images in the game day topic in NFL general? They were not removed because they were inappropriate, but because they don't belong in a game day topic. |

This seems weird and honestly kind of pervy, but I just want to make sure I don't break the rules at some point and get warned. Would regular thongs be okay as opposed to just a g-string or is it pretty much any underwear that doesn't cover the whole butt cheek that is against the rules? _________________

No, thongs wouldn't be OK. As you said, it needs to 'cover the whole butt'. |

My only question about this would be:
What exactly does "No sexually suggestive images" mean? That seems like something that could be different to every poster, every mod, and different to you as well.
That's all I can think of for now. _________________

Sorry I can't really be specific about that one. I can't list out all the things that could be 'sexually suggestive' without being graphic. For the most part though, members don't seem to have a problem with this one. I think most people have a good idea of what 'sexually suggestive' means. |
