Where would you rank the photo of Lisa Bonet in this thread?

Adisa said:

its not really a sexual picture in nature (ie, she isn't simulating masturbation or there isn't a guy behind her lookin like he is boinking her arse). i'd say thats a safe pic.

but hey, thats just my take on it...you get another mod they might disagree...i really don't want to turn this thread into one were our individual actions are judged...in the end its all subjective. but by discussing the issue (and not specific examples) we can at least become better educated on what each other are thinking.

I don't care what way you present it, as long as you keep it coming!

sosgemini said:

I love that Carrie woman. Make her moderator! LoL

Good compromise, hun!

HamsterHuey said:

good compromise. so that would mean jenna elfman comes back right?

Y'all don't want to know my opinion on this subject.


Oh hell....there is one mod who oversteps a lot.

That's all I'll say.

gemini13 said:

That is not what this thread is about.

It is about setting a standard for one single subject (nudity) in one forum (GD).

This is not a 'this or that moderator said this or that'-thread. This is about setting boundaries that are clear to everyone.

HamsterHuey said:

ohh it's about setting boundaries? ugh! forgettit then! I thought it was about getting rid of a few boundaries.

HamsterHuey said:

Hey mister!


Don't tell me what to say or not to say.

gemini13 said:

Don't tell me to don't tellyou what to say or not to say.



Discuss, not digress.

HamsterHuey said:

I was discussing....I really do think that part of the problem is the blurry vision and heavy handedness of one based on one's own moral compass.

gemini13 said:

Sure, but you seemed to want to play it on the man, or woman, while I think this discussion, if kept purely about what to moderate, would keep personal stuff (petpeeves, dislikes and biases) out of the moderating.

I amoften very irritated that one mod takes down pics when just a hint of breast is concerned, while others aren't, well, uptight.

Still, stating this should be kept as formal as possible, as this is personal stuff and I am not here to hurt feelings. I want clarity on what we can post.

When I did the survey on "the average age of an orger", and keep in mind the age of consent is 18....the breakdown under 18 was as follows:


17 year olds/6 orgers responded

16 y.o./ 2 responded

15 y.o./2 responded

14....0

13 y.o./ 1 responded.

Not everyone posted their age, so this isn't exact. Having raised 3 children, there isn't anything on this site the average teenager with access to a computer hasn't seen before.
There does need to be good taste and consideration for others when posting. The Borat photo getting a BJ from his "sister" was crossing the line.
You could go with "What would Prince do?" in his earlier years as a rule of thumb since this is a Prince website. Which makes butt cheeks in a thong ok,male nipples, whatever is in his videos. Full frontal nudity he never did.
At my workplace, the few times I log on here, the photos are all blocked so I don't pay attention to the "not for work" warning. They don't come up, anyway.

if you want to look at titties, go to a porn site

It's the beginning of the end when you start censoring a site that was the result of such songs( or performances) as Head, Erotic City, or Schoolyard.

Time sorts things out with regards to judgement and illusions of what is harmful or moral. Everything has a lifespan. Evrything grows old and dies.

I have noticed threads that have no pornography or violence sometimes being censored for odd personal reasons.

Of course many, many hard core fans no longer come here for a multitude of reasons. I think many people that are not even really into prince come here and post a lot. Odd watching the life of this site.

I'm sure there are lots of sites out there in cyberland

Let me just say that there are TWO, not one mod that oversteps due to possible inexperience.

you have to pay!

I'm not going to read the whole of this thread because I can't be arsed.

However, on tech/geek forums where this acronym likely originated (because only geeks are that sad), the rule of NSFW is that if it's in the title, and you're at work, then you shouldn't fucking open it, and if you do, it's all your fault after that.



As for what constitutes NSFW, I believe that has always been up to the OP, and then the mod if the OP hasn't considered others well enough.

KidOmega said:

I like them too.

Spookymuffin said:

And alot of people fail to put NSFW in their thread title

luv4u said:

I try to.

why not have a NSFW forum

oldpurple said:

There used to be an L & R (Love & Relationship) forum. But, unfortunately it did not work out and thus got nuked.

KidOmega said:

so a woman's breast is now considered porn?

luv4u said:

L&R is not the same as NSFW.

sosgemini said:

Shorty said:

where i work yes

luv4u said:

what? well its not...there can be a discussion on torture in p&r that would require a NSFW disclaimer...In fact, we've had such things in the past...

or, imagine apples or vanity threads in associated artist...sometimes those need warnings...
