I actually asked about this just after I joined Trap17. Many people gave their own responses but the most official response came from Whyme:
QUOTE(whyme @ Apr 3 2005, 04:14 PM) Trap17 has had some more "explict" topics that have been discussed about, such as: -10 Year Old Girl Raped -Thai Food And Cannibalism - Cyber Sex Therefore, yes, it is allowed, but not to the extent that even an adult would be offended by the content. Also, you would have to place a little "warning sentence" before you post the content, so minors would be aware of it. edit: a final note, if the content is *really* explict, then you would have to say that in the topic description area. (i.e. - explict content - no minors). Otherwise, I wouldn't even post it. -whyme  I covered my bases with the warning, and title description, but there really is no way to make sure that no one is offended. I think this forum's policy toward offensive material is "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it". The people who make the decisions here at Trap17 should seriously consider lifting their censorship over material deemed "offensive" in favor of a reasonable system of warning, such as I employed in this thread. Think of this not as a complaint, but as a serious suggestion. |

Think of this not as a complaint, but as a serious suggestion. It's tough to define the correct ways to censor materials. Yes, the fair warning was given. However, I felt to remove the link because the expletive word was not needed to show the writing in blood AND show the bloody written effect. The censorship I made did not come from the whole content but, it (the curse word) wasn't necessary to show the total Photoshop blood like creation. By that mean, I suggested that you could have written "The First Blood" instead of said chosen curse word to "show" writings in blood. I hope that I am making it clear for my decision to remove the link. If you prefer to post, perhaps, the same picture with different writing, please feel free. |
