    I don’t see it being a benefit in communities in that I mod (hentai, paizuri, tentaclehentai, and hentaigif), so I’m not personally keen on it but I can see why larger communities might want it. I’m no longer as hopeful that a more active hentai-oriented community will develop here, so though I voted “No”, I’m a little apathetic about the choice now, personally.

    From what I recall, some users use downvotes for more than just spam, like disliking things. This creates a problem when people browse the Local feed and downvote stuff they don’t like even if they aren’t even subbed to that community. This impacts niche communities and their posters/creators who would get more downvotes from people seeking more mainstream content even if it would otherwise fit that community.

    If the goal is just to ward off spam, then unless reports aren’t enough, I’d keep downvotes off.


  • Thank you~ I’ve updated my sidebar to refer to the correct rule number when reminding users to not post any instance-wide banned materials like underage or non-con content etc. etc.

    Looking forward to the docs page getting built out progressively to help navigate some of the nuances around some of the more “gray” rules that are harder to adjudicate on. It’s a lot of work, and I’d imagine no user will read it right off the bat, but it’ll be helpful to refer them to when making those judgement calls and referring users to when they (hopefully) accidentally post banned content. The thought and depth of the work is very appreciated.


  • Not the original asker, but to clarify the first question: should I take this to mean that aged up are possibly acceptable in this revision as opposed to a complete ban?

    I’m not asking this to start posting “oppai loli” content or w/e, but moreso content that provide better context clues for the characters being older:

    • Easy Case - Characters sharing a night together after a long day of college classes
    • Hard Case - Characters that are physically older and have anatomical proportions resembling an adult

    I’m mostly asking this as a moderator since I’ve taken care to ensure characters depicted in my posts are either canonically 18 and up or at least appear sufficiently old enough (if no canonical age is available) to make it easy on myself, but I’d like to have a better idea of where to draw the line when moderating posts from others, if possible, in a way that suits this instance. (Thanks!)
