User blog:FlakyPorcupine/Extension on link rules for violence/gore/porn

I feel like there is something that needs to be said about this subject, mostly because I've seen people who are confused and unsure as to what the extensions to behold on the subject of mentioning or linking a picture/video of violence, porn, screamers and other shock images or videos. One thing I do want to mention right off the bat is the difference between a video game and reality when it comes to this subject.

1. Linking to any porn or snuff site is bad. Period. I've seen people post gore pics on a few occasions that disgusted me greatly. My first instinct is to ban on sight, and probably take away rights you have to be an admin/chat mod. You have been warned.

2. Do not try to trick other people into looking up these snuff/porn sites. Don't try to convince someone unaware of search up Lemon Party or Blue Waffle, as that is just as bad as actually linking it in chat. And trust me, I know almost any porn video you can think of. I've seen my fair share.

3. Concerning violence in video games and other mediums, these will be treated differently as they don't showcase actual violence. If a game is particularly violent (say Mortal Kombat or Manhunt) it would be nice to have trigger-warnings if it would be needed.

4. Video game sex. Allowed, but mention that the link is NSFW (Not Safe For Work). Some of us don't always post from home.

5. Screamer links without warning is a quick way to ensure that you'll be kicked out of the chat.

6. If a joke goes too far in either subject (read as explicitly gory or detailing sex acts, anatomy or intercourse), tone it down if a mod tells you to. Mods, your first instinct is not to kick the user unless they are known to be a repeat offender. Give a warning first, especially if they don't know that they are crossing the line.

Thank you for your time.
