NSFW threads could be ok if funny enough. But porn has not worked for some years.

"Clifford the big red slut" will always be inherently funny to me, but the deviantart thread was too weakly modded to live

Could a weird dragon nsfw thread function? Hypothetically i guess

Did that goon who did the tes oblivion cyoa that became obvious misery porn ever get banned? Pretty sure it was not that visibly horny

Cool back to the 2 weeks of the unmitigated drama of SAD demanding GBS be shut down or moderated by people that don't post in GBS until it crescendos into someone getting doxxed and an admin resigning

I thought that thread was wack but the fallout is going to be wacker than it ever could have been

    looking at this with my incredible wisdom mind i've come to the conclusion that:
  1. NSFW threads can in theory work
  2. Threads that are or are perceived to be porn or literal circle jerks can't
  3. Probably a mod should have read the thread and been like "hey pump the brakes"
It's not like the thread wasn't running for multiple days, and it coulda turned out fine, but didn't.
Because #3 & some gbs goons being like "we're all here for the dicks and tits post em up whoo" & then people strolling by gbs and going "yup this is goons openly jacking off to weird porn in gbs and being hosed up. again."

so prob a week off + gas is fair, but it shouldn't have got to that. P sure spacetits didn't end up with all this, so dragontits didn't have to. Ultimately applewhite posted the posts and got the probe, but if we're going to consider feedback i guess that's the entire situation, right?

Dude, I've been tied up with IRL stuff this week - don't lay this one on me. I've barely had time to drop in on the forums, much less scour new threads, and probably won't have things start to calm down again until Monday. Under normal circumstances, though, I am definitely like the eye of Sauron constantly and ominously monitoring GBS.

Also look, I ended up noping out of the thread because horny furry art ain't my schtick, but also realistically it isn't even the worst offending *type* of thread that gets made on the forums at large.

Like gas, give a week, whatever. It isn't like it's a thread about a child harem anime, or a game designed to make you emotionally sick, or filled with people trying to groom or prey on posters. Getting slapped with a "naughty, no, don't do it again" for a week and moving the gently caress on is pretty appropriate as a response because I wasn't personally a fan of it very quickly, but also it's just some loving furry art.

This is the forum where we praise the anal gape dude. And (to my knowledge) at least all the characters were even well of age, which puts it above a lot of other poo poo.

Egg-laying dragons have an estrous cycle. They go into heat once a month that lasts from 1-3 days. Those are the only days when dragon women can achieve orgasm. When she's not in heat, sex is physically uncomfortable and women will fiercely refuse any sexual advances to the point of becoming physically violent.

Lets face it, applewhite isnt being probed and ths thread gassed for horny posting, hes probed for drawing thinly disguised fetish porn. I think its important to have clarity on that.

If were gonna go down some kinda puritanical "no horny at all" its gonna end up killing a lot of tangentially related threads in pyf, comics, and gbs and games, (and probably all of adrtw, lmao) and while it would definately solve the issue i guess but its a pretty wide hammer for a fairly thin issue, And to be honest is a wide enough rule that some mods could use for settling grudges very easily.

The thread was gross but was it indicative of some kind of larger issue? No. Gbs, or in fact any of subs, arent hotbeds of creepy wierdos drawing smut. The main issue is that the rules dont explicitly say "dont draw wierd fetish art disguised as something else", which as far as im concerned should probably be forums wide anyway.

Personally I would probably add a "no homegrown (including your wierd fetish art)" rule to the gbs thread in light of this so next time it cant get to to this stage.

No I'm agreeing, I'm like 99% sure there used to be ex: pyf rear end & they went away for a reason. Imo weird / horny / weird+horny threads can be fine & there have been a lot of good ones, porn threads are GOING to go bad if they last long enough even if they start off completely innocuous.

Think it's important to point out that the thread didn't take a turn, as you said yourself you saw the first post and decided 'no thanks' so it's not like the mspaint porn adventure OPed by the mspaint porn adventure guy started as one thing and turned into another

I, personally, would rather we didn't have threads for posting in depth descriptions of dragon menstrual cycles and ovulatory habits with posters asking that the dragons be drawn vomiting on each others tits and getting fully erect but if anyone has a reason that these threads are foundational to the GBS culture then this is the thread for it

i think it was funny he thought it was okay to post that and that hes had multiple cyoa threads about his fetishes but instead of tolerating that you should start banning for it because horny posting eventually overtakes everything and becomes all they want to post about

my take is as far as i know one of the best and possibly longest lasting cyoa threads on the forums, if not the whole internet, grew out of (iirc) a different even older gbs cyoa with goons voting for crazy poo poo. There's space for a lotta weird/gross &/or even somewhat horny types of threads in gbs. It's crossing from that to the self-reinforcing goon porn circus that changes things. This ramping effect of goons egging it on.

gas the thread, week off, done.

is there space for any porn on sa? probably not, because imo even normal porn becomes:

honestly, I'm with you on that, 100%. Especially if it curbs interforum drama bullshit.

Make a fuckin rule, inform everyone of the rule, enforce it and be done with it. Just don't handwring about it for months so it blows the gently caress up into some kind of situation like whatever the hell happened a few weeks ago.

Just lay down the law, no more fetish porn CYOAs. If the first post of your CYOA includes notes on how big the tits and dick are, you've already gone too far.
