TFP00137: Optional Workplace Standards Compliance Act of 2008("OWSCA") Establishing a mechanism by which the tilted forum project can be brought into compliance with workplace internet browsing standards.

<hr>

Tilted Forum Project ("the forum") is an adult online discussion community, and, as such, has a wide range of content, some of which does not comply with workplace internet standards ("NSFW content").
This NSFW content is present primarily in a subsection titled "Errogenous Zone," plus one additional forum, but current board standards also allow other pages to contain NSFW content, either as the subject matter (normally labeled with "NSFW" in the thread title or link body), or in the forum of user's avatars.
It is not desireable to permanently or completely remove the NSFW content from the forum, for a variety of reasons not disputed by this proposal.
Many users might wish to access the forum from a location that permits internet access, but does not permit NSFW content. This is currently possible only through disabling avatars and avoiding the known NSFW content locations. NSFW content could still be viewed accidently through various actions, with varying degrees of penalty depending upon the terminal being used. 

THEREFORE
OWSCA proposes that a mechanism be introduced by which the board can easily be brought into full compliance with restricted browsing standards.

(a) This mechanism should ideally be persistent to the terminal, not to the account, so that home accounts do not inherit the permisisons of the workplace terminal. 
(b) If (a) is infeasable, a front-page option, easily accessible upon login to the main page, should be put in place. 
(c) To ensure that the option is comprehensive, it should remove any threads marked NSFW from being displayed in the forum indexs, as well as remove the primarily NSFW content forums from both the general listing and the 'find new posts' dialog box. 
(d) To allow for variations in neccessary compliance levels, there should be a per-user profile option similar to 'hide avatars when browsing in safe mode (yes/no)
