    Just looking for clarification on what is considered NSFW / Porn, I was involved in a thread the other night, discussing what kind of women you are attracted to....I posted a link to a topless girl with a heading..
    "boobs are present and will probably corrupt our tiny minds" I also tagged the link as NSFW as we were talking about suicide girls at the time and the link was a picture of a suicide girl, I thought it would be ok, her boobs were exposed and nothing else...
    It was not porn so just wondering shoud I have got a weeks ban over it.....The mod invloved even acknowledged that they were a crackin pair..

    thread :
    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055356938&highlight=suicide+girls

    looking to get the after hours ban overturned, can post link if anyone would like to see the image and judge for themselves....

    the mod involved was very nice I have to admit....

    I think issues with bans are to be posted in Help Desk and not Feedback anymore..

    I think.

    But ya, specific links to the post in question would help.

    Boards is a site for 13+ (iirc) and images of naked breasts are banned, even on private forums.

    Was it tastefully done like a Playboy centrefold or tastelessly done like Kathy Bates in About Schmidt? I think that makes a huge difference. ;)

    Still at least it wasn't a spider in the bathtub.

    It's up to the owner of the private forum as to whether they'll allow those kinds of pictures or not.

    Afaik, the policy on NSFW pics is it's okay to link to most NSFW pictures (within reason) as long as you tag it clearly as NSFW. It's not okay to embed a NSFW image in a post.

    For example the previous post just earned me some strange looks in my open plan office, which I'm not too impressed about.

    So no boobs are allowed, even with a NSFW link, is that correct?...if I post the link here and label it NSFW would that be ok (just to the s mods can see)? I thought the pic was kind of arty....not smut..

    Dumb ban. If we were talking about an actual image embedded in the post, then fair enough, but banning for a link (particularly a clearly NSFW-marked link) is retarded.

    NSFW
    <snip>

    The coversation was about girls you like, this girls got, tattoos, dreads, body jewelry....she's an offical suicide girl....

    Afaik the policy has always been no porn/nudity with naked breasts being the starting point.

    /shrug

    In your case don't think a ban was warrented, a warning and removal of the image would have been enough.

    I would have banned you. I'm sure you could have found a clothed suicide girl.

    it's just the angle of the shot and her pose that makes it misleading.

    the mod was incorrect in this case.

    They are not a cracking pair.
