2 questions.

1. Speaking of the nudity form external source. Would that include indigenous tribal nudity?

2. In the image baskets of swimwear. I get where you are coming from about members in bathing suits. But, I have an image basket of celebrities who I find very hot, and in there is a picture of Jessica Alba in a bikini. Would that be allowed?

No photographs.

She's in the ocean, so the context is acceptable.

" -  You may only post yourself in swimwear for a suitable location, such as at a beach or pool. "

You guys are so fucking stupid. So now we get you guys from england deleting pictures of swimwear on the street or what have you because you don't realize that in places like California or even Vancouver during the summer, swim suits are regular attire. That's just what we wear here.

I can understand about the nudity, obviously, we have naive 13 year olds here... but placing an unenforcible law on swim suits?

The problem with our current moderation is that too many of the rules are based on moderator discretion. If we had simple, outlined rules like "No swimwear." or "Swimwear is acceptable." there would be no debates. Now you're just setting yourselves up for being flamed with "But _____ has a pic of her bikini on and shes in her bathroom, why did you delete mine?!" And like always, you dumbfucks won't have an answer because the truth of it is that Mod 1 doesn't see a problem with it and Mod 2 is slightly more prudent and does.

Bottom line - when most of your moderators are between the ages of 14 and 18, you can't have rules based on their judgment.

Some consultation would have been nice.

If a topic like this had been posted before you removed my >2 year old image months ago (not in the 'past few days' as you noted), allowing me and others an opportunity for input, I would have recommended all previously approved images remain on the servers and for these new rules to be applied to new images only.

It's not fair to go removing old images without explanation, leaving the members to do the detective work themselves and then months later make an official announcement about the new 'rules'.

Don't forget photoshopping. You can easily bypass the 'suitable location' requirements with a fake background. But that's a whole new can of worms.

Do you know what the image was named? If so I can find out who deleted it, or if you can link it to me I will be able to check it out.

The guidelines for these images should be applied to images from now and the past. Images are relevant for there here and now but something like a topic from a long time ago isn't (if a new guideline was brought out and a topic was affected from a long time ago).

Someone must of found your image, either reported it to a mod or messaged it. Or a mod came across it when looking at your images in general.
