We’ve decided to disallow IRL or 3D NSFL content, this means things like gore, decapitations, suicides and similar intense disturbing depictions.
We will be allowing 2D Depictions (also known as Guro). However, when posting Guro content it is suggested you clearly mark it in the title and required that you embed/link to the image/video/media in the post body and not in the actual URL field.
We were inspired to think about this particular thing as lemmynsfw (another instance) was discussing it as well and made some good points. The main one being that there’s no separate NSFL tag, so people can’t properly filter it out.
Also, being 100% frank, it’s not the sort of thing we want to be tasked with potentially moderating and/or looking at.
Isn’t it possible to make a community not show up on the frontpage? Seeing the words Ban and Burrgit seem counterproductive.
They’re too nauseated to look at actual people being mutilated, and so by allowing it there would be the possibility of people hiding worse content (actual real-life CSAM) behind a wall they’d be too uncomfortable to look behind and moderate, if that makes sense.
And I’m nauseated at seeing pedo loli shit, but you don’t see me complaining. Just hide both behind a community, someone will mod it, shit I’m no stranger modding NSFL shit, being /r/watchpeopledie
They face legal risks if the community mods don’t do their job.
So get someone to mod it.
One, this is not your server. You don’t get to tell us what we can and cannot do on it. If you wish, you can start your own instance with a goal of NSFL content and see how easy it is to maintain it with people constantly joining. I’ll even help you with some pointers on getting it setup if you wish. Prepare to get defederated all over the place, possibly moreso than we are, though.
where’s two?
