What is the Limit of pic content that can be posted anywhere on the MB? (When I mean content I mean sexual) Can we post any "R" rated material or is there a "PG-13" Limit? What are the Limits exactly?? :D :lol:

My webhost does not allow me to host explicit pornography as part of its terms of service. Therefore, you cannot post explicit pornography, or I'll be forced to delete it. Anything below that would be OK, I suppose, although I'll dump hate literature etc. into the Hall of Shame.

So "R" rated Playboy type pics are okay?

As long as they don't qualify as explicit pornography. I'm not sure if nude pictures count or not. Does anybody know how explicit porno is defined?

I'm no expert on the legalize but I believe that would need genitals showing. Tits and ass are ok.

I assume that includes Pussy shot where you see her Legs spread and you see Pink, or some Lesbian sex or, some Dude Giving it to a Girl (or Guy). That and anything Beyond I would think would be Explictic Porn.

But then Again ppl have a tendancy of putting in Playboy and the Like with Porno.

If it has no literary or cultural value, and is clearly intended to appeal to a prurient interest in sex, maybe? That's how the government defines pornography, I think.

That's a pretty broad definition. By that token, many beer commercials are pornography.

It's the definittion given in most dictionarys. But i gave the definition I've seen used most commonly for these sort of situations.

SB.com has a bunch of prudish, bible thumpers as mods so that's not really suprising.

And one would figure that Classic art like that could squeek past most any censors....

One more criteria I forgot, in addition to the two I posted: the material must be presented in a way that is clearly offensive to the public.

This is the defintion the government currently uses for obscenity (which is not currently protected by the First Amendment, believe it or not).

Not with the bible thumpers. After all they more than any other group desecrated works considered morally offensive. They destroyed a lot of beautiful and acient artwork for the sake of prudish morality.

Yes, but Birth of Venus was released DURING the Inquisition & the Medaeci without having any trouble at all.

And which ones are the prudish bible thumpers? The only one I can think of which is anything like that is Dent.

Dent is the prime example. Steletek and BigBryan just bitch so much a lot of the mods have done it just to shut them up.

Though Nicol has been a bit of prude on some of that stuff.

I wasn't refering to that event specifically. It's happen a few times in pic posting threads with some of the more risque pics.

Yes, I know, I hang out at all three places, SB, SD.Net, and the ASVS newsgroup.

Funny how many people ask me for a addy link to the latter....

Explicit pornography would be something that depicts intercourse, or lewd pictures in general. Just someone posing nude would not generally be considered porn.

So instead we should set up porno links as boobytraps for you and your boss to enjoy? :twisted:

By the way, what does Mike's internet host say about links to porn?

Truthfully, we get hooked up with enough weird links/pics around here (Shep's Colon-cam photo etc...) that I can do without the R rated (or more graphic) stuff. Besides the gross-out factor I also look at this site from work on ocassion and there are a lot of Bible thumpers where I work, not to mention the company's policies.
