Proboards flagged GBCN as adult content

As such, I deleted the post that talked about a certain spinning member.

How is Sex & Romance against any of those TOS?

Sex and Romance is lewd and lascivious? Granted I haven't been there in a while, but every other post over there when I used to go was written by some girl who was a virgin on her wedding night and didn't understand why her first time wasn't all fireworks. I guess I need more clarification on what constitutes lewd. Questions about anal sex?

I'm sure ellie has it handled since she was the one contacted.

honestly, the one that concerns me the most is no encouraging people to buy guns. If I can tell them to buy a KA mixer I should be able to recommend an M&P, as long as I don't cross the line of starting a militia board to over-through the government and promote domestic terrorism

I feel like the no casino line might be to prevent spammy internet gambling sites, but at the same time I would like to be able to discuss vacation plans to Vegas or the politics of casinos in ME.

We'll see what happens.

Interesting. I used to post on a Proboards forum that included some semi-adult content (a lot of talk about fetishes, etc.), but nothing really lewd. One day, it just disappeared. No warning to the moderators or administrator, apparently. Whoever's in charge of Proboards must have been offended by something, I guess.

"Is generally offensive or in bad taste, as determined by ProBoards."

It would be nice to know exactly what the ProBoards standards are.

So...we can't talk about drugs unless it's to say that drugs are bad?

"contains comments or images that are offensive"

So should we just delete PCE now?

Seriously, who even knows this board is here, besides the people who are here? Who are we at risk of offending so egregiously that we shouldn't be allowed to say what we want?

:Y: :beer: :drink: :drink:

In short, no. Most of the forum hosting sites (certainly the ones large enough to host us for free) have an "indecent or pornographic" clause in them.

ETA: The only way to get completely free would be to host on our own servers. As much as people like this site, I highly doubt we could raise enough cash to sustain a forum this big.

Does it, though, according to ProBoards? Their guidelines don't seem to imply that context matters.

And really, how much should the context matter? Is it okay to violate their terms when the topic of discussion is more "worthy" than double penetration? Who decides that?

My thinking is based on the assumption that the thread was deleted because of the links. If it was deleted because of the discussion itself, well, I find it a little ironic that minus the links, that thread would have barely raised an eyebrow on The Bump (where most of those posters were from).

Then I guess we'd have our answer about context.

We can't glamorize gambling? Does that mean I can't say "I had an awesome time at Caesars Palace!" or something like that?

So does this mean that the Nest is starting to look good again?

Pffft please. You know that was just NestMichelle dressed up as a PB mod to fuck with us.
