Now that I have your attention:

Please be aware that we do not allow the posting of pictures of anyone under the age of 18 in ANY of the forums.

If we see the pictures, we will either delete them or edit them, and send you a little reminder. Repeat offenders will be dealt with on an individual basis.

You may notice in some of the threads here, in particular the older posts, that a lot of the pictures are rexed. Some rexed on their own. Others had the URL of the image replaced with "picture removed - child".

I know that from this point forward, everyone will take better care in their posts.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Including non-nude posts? For example, if someone were to post a pic they found on google in the Feeling Picture thread of some kid crying for the emotion sad, it would be removed?

NO PICTURES (NUDE OR CLOTHED) OF ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 18.

Is that better?

Just to clarify, how does this apply to drawings?

vermin: as far as I've been made aware, as long as these drawings are not of an explicit nature, are not of abuse of any kind, or not a depiction of a real life event, then they are ok. But will still be considered on an item by item basis. If a mod or admin finds them unacceptable, they will be removed.

Kyp: those were never allowed. Children pictures were never allowed. It was just a matter of us finding them to remove them.

Apparently some people are deaf or hard of reading, I understood what you trying to say the first time. Maybe they are trying to push some kind of envelope, and if that is the case let them move on to a more appropriate forum, swapping kiddy pictures they want to share with there parent and grandparents.! DUH...

you know sometimes people just wanto to be clear about some rules.
better to ask right away specifics than to stay in the dark.

Why is this on the nonsense board? It makes a lot of sense.

Please try to make less sense

I'm going to ignore that this was said because people should know by now the important things like rules and stuff like that are always a "Notice" on each forum.

Yes. Even in Tilted Nonsense we have rules.

bernadette

good policy. kudos.

Good I Hate Children!! HAHAHA first step, no pictures on TFP, next step! WORLD DOMINATION! hahahahahaha, also, ya, its a good rule.

What exactly is the reasoning behind this? I can understand not to, I'm not trying to ask for exceptions like Infants and crap. I was just curious.

JadziaDax

uhm... are they under 18, or are they midgets?
Yours is not to reason why...

Come on people, it's a rule of the TFP. A rule we've had for quite some time now that people have chosen to ignore. Well, no more. Ignorance of the rules is no excuse. When you mysteriously find you cannot log into your account, the words "I didn't know" are not acceptable. The rules are posted for all to see. It is your responsibility as a member of this community to read and abide by these rules, not to question them.

That being said, do you need further clarification on the "NO PICTURES OF ANYONE UNDER THE AGE OF 18" thing? or do you get it now?

spectre

If they were underage when the pic was taken, the pic is still of someone underage. It doesn't matter what their age is now.

Oh my fucking God!! What is so hard to understand??? Is the picture a picture of someone under 18? If you answer yes, then don't post it. If they are of legal age now, but weren't when the picture was taken, then it doesn't matter...the picture is of a person under 18 and therefore not allowed. Not a difficult rule to understand.

my guess is this rule is applied because this a very large msg board & there is no doubt a few sickos about...

yes. feel free to call me captain obvious.

did pete townsend ever get out of that unseemly quagmire of his?

I am still shocked by the blatant mis-representation of this thread.

Here I was, all drooly and stuff, finally, Jadzia is going to show us the whole package, clicked on the thread...................... and got a public service announcement.

Try to imagine my disappointment! A very worthwile message but a total abuse of those of us that think with our little heads.

I just never thought that I would be so abused here at the TFP!

I am crushed Jadzia, just crushed.

Sorry to disappoint, rockogre, but I needed everyone's attention on this one. No one seemed to listen to or read the rules otherwise.

I know you'll get over it

BentNotTwisted

Pete Townsend was acquited. Apparently his defense was that he had done some browsing of child porn sites as 'research' to see if he could recall having been sexually abused as a child. Yeah, right, and I'm the pope!

Would be ok? (subtly trying to get a point across)

Apologies to kalisto_911, I just couldn't help myself!

JadziaDax

Don't apologize to kalisto_911...

Anyone who has already posted in this thread and then goes out and posts a picture of a child in a thread is just asking for it...

No need to apologize.

And no need to get a point across, either.

Thanks for trying.

prosequence

Wow, my head hurts... of course is what people say when they bang their heads against a wall. Folks, a wall is a wall, a rule is a rule, get philosophical if you want and debate if the wall even really exists, but it comes down to it, step up give it a crack with your noggin, if it hurts, it's a wall.

Holy Sweet Fuck... under 18 don't post.......no fucking what-ifs allowed !!

No offence, but your argument is not quantifiable nor is it sustainable. Once it is I will recognise it as valid. I personally do not want U18's interfering with my enjoyment of a public space, and if you think I'm wrong please join me at Tiger Tiger.

Otherwise please continue to enjoy the freedom this forum enjoys, but do not spoil it for the rest of us by ranting about "U18's don't post" shit.

jesus, people, stop asking questions!!!! just fucking accept that you can't post pictures of ANYONE UNDER 18! INFANTS are YOUNGER than 18. So are toddlers, 3rd-graders, and anyone born between now and 18 years ago. It's simple math. Don't push the mods and admins, they have MORE than enough else to do. Why the fuck is it so important for you to know exactly what KIND of kids you can post? You shouldn't be doing that ANYWAY.

I love mods!

Masterbate. Donate. Repeat.

neddy65

perhaps i was misunderstood. I did not mean people under 18 should not post but that pictures of people under the age of 18 should not be posted, nor should there be this much discussion concerning " what if" situations. The pushing of the stated bounderies was pissing me off.

You know sometimes it astounds me. I though the whole no posting of any of someone under 18 pics was pretty clear. Why are people having such a hard time understanding?

How about if their 17 when you snap the picture and superman flies around the earth 1000 times making them 18, then is it okay, huh, huh, huh?

Maybe their IQ's haven't caught up with their age?

Anyway, NO. If they were 17 when the picture was taken, then the picture is of a 17 year old no matter what their age is now. It's not allowed.

Guys, let the blood flow back to the head on your shoulders and you might understand the simple instructions you've been given.

Esen

I just want to say thank you very much,
This was the only thing that bothered me about the community, the possibility of under age photos.
I hate them and I am glad that you are making a stand against them.

I ve always been afraid to open a post and see a minor picture.
I have a family and that kind of pics really makes me sad.
So i back you 100% in saying no to to under age pics.
THANK YOU.

Are we still discussing this? JadziaDax's original post was on 8/4. I see that on 8/24 someone was still clarifying the meaning of the post. Move on people, there's nothing more to see here.

Thanks Officer Barbrady...
