This is ridiculous.

  then ban the discussion of questionable things too.
  
  at least stop the double-standard.

  Text =/= image. That's how it works.
  
  The limit for text and the limit for images is not the same.
  
  
  
  "Have you watched porn before?"
  "No, have you?"
  
  Something like that pitted against:
  
  "Have you watched <insert image> before?"
  
  Exaggerated, but my point.

  There actually was a period in time where there weren't any "questionable" discussions, but then members just keep bringing it up, and then they complain about wanting more freedom when they're already pushing some of the limits that were set.
  
  My thoughts :(

  Exactly. I don't think it's as black and white as some members are saying it is.

  That's unfair though. What if I wanted to post M-rated stories that I wrote?
  
  They're quite explicit.

  I'm just saying but if anyone wanted to post nude crap, you better spoiler that sh*t because I don't want to see it unless it's hot. Since you can't spoiler it, then I don't see any way nude pictures are going to be accepted (And that's regardless of spoiler tags anyway).

  Mature discussion =/= book porn (if that's what you're talking about).

  I don't see why you wouldn't understand the rules, and if you do understand them, it's your choice if you decide to dismiss them, because if you don't agree with the rule of this forum, I don't see why you have a reason to stay.

  you threw all credibility for your argument out right there.

  i stay mostly for the mabinogi info, certainly not for the moderation team filled with 15-year-olds that can't handle a non-sexualized limp dick but have no problem with a bunch of minors reading a 12+ page thread on touching yourself.

  Seriously, guys.
  
  The word porn =/= actual porn.
  
  Would you want your parents to see you reading text or looking at pictures of porn?
  
  The word penis or an actual penis?
  
  
  Words are not images and therefore they do not follow the same rules.

  I have a great idea for a compromise.
  
  Why not just post the censored versions, along with a link to the original and a warning of nudity?
  
  It works just the same as a spoiler tag.

  That's what was said a LONG time ago in their thread, but Coy and Cide didn't go for it >_>

  that is allowed, but why should you have to censor a nonsexual image when you don't have to censor your speech of blatantly sexual things at the same time? text is not words, but i have a feeling you guys still living with your parents (most of the moderation) just don't want your parents seeing weiners.
  
  again, if it were titties or a female crotch area, NONE of you would have said a damn WORD.
  
  edit: to clarify; coy would totally have been fine with censoring things if you guys didn't allow blatantly sexual things to be posted otherwise. it's a little unfair to her and anyone else who's mature enough to handle artistic nudity on this forum.
  
  tl;dr; censoring itself was not the issue. censoring coupled with the conversation allowed is.

  Pretty much this.
