I've been on this site since it was lostcherry , and i've throughly enjoyed my time here well that is untill recently . There have been some things are making the site not worth coming to , and definately not worth the money to be a VIP or to buy a blast or happy hour ...I have considered doing the later, but figured why should I it will only benefit the people on the site who are trying very hard to drive into the dirt.
My questions are , Why do you even have an NSFW rating ? This is supposed to a site for adults , 18+ yes i know there are a few youngins who have slipped through the cracks and they aren't dealt with as quickly as they're found , But when you're working should you really be screwing off on the net rating photos ? LoL not at any job i've worked at !!! .. Granted i surf on here from work , but i work in a relaxed atmosphere where i can view pics at my luxury . I can see rating photos that are explicitly pornographic as NSFW , but comeon i've had photos that were safe for a daycare center to hang on the wall marked as NSFW. Do you even have live people check them? Do you have very strict guidelines for those people to follow ? Because if you don't , then maybe you should. I'm a moderator on another site and was employed by a site a few years ago that when something was report it was put into a pool to be voted on , 3 votes either way got the photo /content either approved or rejected . If you only have one person doing it and that person happens to be a PRUDE or some Backwoods Hick , then you're letting that one persons opinion rule your site which will start to drive folks away. The same holds true for rating them as NSFW , have any of the powers that be considered that the people who are doing it are doing such with malicious intent ? Because they get a kick out of people not being able to post a mumm or worse getting their acct deleted , i've noticed since i leveled up to 18 more of my pics started getting rated NSFW , and such.
Now i know this is the internet , and it really shouldn't matter much , and to me .. i really couldn't give a flying pig , But there are some people on the net who this place is the only contact they have with the outside world , a place where they feel accepted , and for you to allow them to be victimized because of very vague unclear definitions of what is or isn't safe for work is really a disservice to the very people who put money into your bank account !
In closing i would just like to offer a suggestion , Redefine NSFW , Set some groundrules for the people who look into the reports *you know if its not showing genitalia , and its not being sexually explicit or suggestive , like simulated oral sex and the like , or not extremely gorey * then unmark it . Or have a group of Volunteer moderators for either leaving them marked or unmarking the photos or content in question.
Thank You for Listening =)
