It was under its own community, they just banned that community
Who are you to define what is nsfl. There are people in here arguing consensual non consent is nsfl. How long till furry or trans communities are banned too
Would you guys federate with another instance hosting this sort of data if it gets banned?
That's how it works here too... what they are saying is should we ban the scat sub from reddit. If you don't like scat don't go to scat, or block the community.
I mean if we are banning individual fetishes, where do you draw the line...
Not Safe For Life has never to my knowledge conventionally included scat/extreme fetishes. I've always heard it used to describe things like gore, death, etc.
One other issue with voting on weather fetishes are acceptable is you risk the stability of other subs. For example if people recognize that they can get fetishes tagged as nsfl and removed what happens when a conservative group comes in and targets the multiple trans communities we have here stating they are nsfl. And after that they could reasonably expand that to futas. And so on...
The instance wide rule is blurry but definitely leans on the side of remove it if it could be underage rather than keep it.
That being said it requires individual mods to enforce it, as there are only so many admins and they usually have bigger issues to deal with (such as making sure mods are actually enforcing the rule rather than doing it themselves)
Looking at the modlog for this community, It does look like they are removing posts they feel are too youthful looking. its possible they just havent seen the posts you have issue with.
I would suggest that if you find the content too young, you report the individual posts to highlight them for the mods to make it easier for them to review.
strange, have you tried leaving show nsfw unchecked, and enabling it in settings after ?
Personally i think the rule should be removed, as long as the other rule regarding all characters appearing over 18 stays in place. Its very difficult to find the canonical age for all characters people post to hentai subs, and if the instance gains traction that will only get harder. Also the cononical age rule in my opinion brings up more problems than it solves due to "3000 year old dragon loli's" which in my opinion are obviously loli bait and should be banned, but would technically be over the canonical age line.
so i look at hentai similar to cosplays, if the person cosplaying a character is 30, i see it as that character at 30. If at 14 year old were cosplaying a 30 year old, thinking about them sexually would be predatory and trash.
One of the other issues, is there are fetishes that are less controversial (Itty Bitty Titty Comitty) that depending on how you define sexual characteristics are actually riskier legally/ethically than an age adjusted character (let alone more controversial fetishes like ABDL,Size Differences, etc)
I think at the end of the day, as long as the admins are staunchly against CP, we should be able to see if any communities are posting it. CP in my opinion is very much like porn in that its hard to define but you know when you see it.
I was worried about it splitting the votes too, but I think they are just using it as info gathering not necessarily a whichever wins goes
I had some issues initially on mobile, try on desktop, or hitting the hamburger menu in the top right, and change to desktop mode
I had never heard this one before, and it seems like a fantastic way to explain it to family members
Thanks for all your work on this, if you end up having a hard time finding someone I would definitly be up for it.
