jeez stop whining. if everyone so freakout about content then close down the art section. or ban everyone you dont like ro something. it's really simple, anonymous idiot-boy... if you don't like playing by the rules set up by the people that PAY to keep this board open, then go elsewhere and open up your own board. then you can have all the smut you want, 'kay? ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png)

After proboards reach a certain size, you have to pay for them. Wow. I feel so ignored, Lol. Let me put it this way... If it's probably not something that would be aired on the Disney Channel itself, it needs a warning. Typically. Otherwise, you don't have to show it around here. It's not a must. There are plenty of other places to show these sorts of images. We're not being unaccepting or anything, there's just a reason why there are ratings. And to something that was said on the other thread, most of us have not had sex, I have not and will not until I'm married, because most people here are the age that Kim Possible targets. An age where those sorts of acts shouldn't even be put into their heads. Just stop it. It's that simple. Self control. It's like you're at a party with younger people involved. You wouldn't start whipping out inappropriate pictures, then, of their favourite TV animated characters, would you? Even if you say, "This image is PG-13," it's still inappropriate to offer the choice to see it. But this isn't the only place this art can be found. There is a specific KP board for art like this. I don't know where it's at, but it's out there. As long as there's one place, doesn't mean it needs to spread everything that has to do with Kim Possible. The majority of the people at this board want it to lighten up. So that's what I'm going with. Exactly.

If you're looking for sex, this ain't the place. Keep looking.

Actually, this is the 21st century.
To quote some statistics from another thread,
Guys, there's a wide range between the absolute G-rating of Disney and a picture of a nude Kim giving a nude Drakken a lap dance, which is the sort of thing that inspired the outrage in the first place. I don't think you can reasonably interpret a simple yes/no poll about "lightening up on the mature stuff" as indicating precisely what the majority considers too mature. We need something like a list of hypothetical examples, okay or not okay.

If you don't want your 5 year old sister to know about it, or if it will make life with your parents completely awkward, it's not okay.

This is a forum site, where it's entirely appropriate to discuss things thoroughly before taking action, if action is necessary.
Nightspade, although this isn't an adult site, it isn't exactly a site filled with five-year-olds either. I for one wouldn't want to censor things beyond the level of Cartoon Network (not Adult Swim), Nicklelodeon, or "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire."
Let's face it, when it comes to the fanart section, those who who have problems mostly have them with a certain prolific lady artist whose signiature picture involves Kim having a very different dance partner! Serge, why don't you tell her exactly what she can post here and what she can't (there's Deviant Art or that slash place for her more adult stuff). and if she's willing to chill, the problem's 95% solved.

I am sorry, but this really irks me.
We have a small (29 out of 802 total members is not a majority) very vocal group of people who don't seem to think that anyone can actually be responsible for their own actions. To this end they wish to limit what can be said and shown on this board becuase of their personal beliefs.
And for those of you pulling the high horse attitude that it is what the owners want go back and read the beginning of this thread. It has been stated time and time again that they are fine with the policy as it stands. You weren't pulling the "owners want it that way" card until they must have gotten fed up with listening to you complain and just agreed with you to shut you up.
I have tried to ignore this thread in the hopes that it would just die and go away, but it never has.
The simple truth is that thereis a rule on what can and cannot be posted on this board. Nothing over PG-13 and anything over PG requires a disclaimer. That is enough. If you feel that something is over the PG-13 limit or is not properly labeled then inform the mods or poster and let them deal with it. We do not need to change any rules.
I have said it before and I will say it again. By bowing to this we open ourselves up to more censorship coming from these and other people. How long until they move on to fanfiction links from the board? How long until any discussion of romance between any characters is railed against.
People like this are the same everywhere. They pick and pick and pick until you finally give in and then you are sunk. Becuase once you give in, once they know that they have won they will not stop until everything is exactly as they want it.
For those of you upset about the art. There is a very, very simple solution. Don't look at it. I only look at art by a select few people. I don't look at the rest. It is that simple and easy.

If you feel that something is over the PG-13 limit or is not properly labeled then inform the mods or poster and let them deal with it. We do not need to change any rules. agreed 100% (to everybody) above all if you think something is questionable- send a note to one of the moderators- that's what that is for. If you have to say something to the person who posts the art- at least do so in a polite manner- It's alright to have a difference of opinion- but it's silly to go on and on about some peice of art you don't like (which incedentally also bumps it to the top of the page) do that and one of two things will happen 1. You'll annoy the artist if they honestly feel their art meets guidelines OR 2. You'll give the person who posted exactly what they want because they are trying to offend you. Finally if you don't agree with the moderator's views of what is and isn't allowed on this site, and you really feel that strongly about either being 1. exposed to KP discussion and art rated beyond PG OR 2. being censored in any way please just leave the site, because those are the rules that were settled on by the mods. This place isn't a democracy.

I think that the general consensus is this: X= Bad NC-17= Bad R= Bad PG-13= Good PG= Good G= Good Yes, I'm well aware that this isn't a site full of 5 year olds. Infact, the youngest member that I know of is 11. I'm just saying that the majority seems to agree with what I posted above. Besides, it was my belief that this topic was settled long ago. ronstoppable.proboards47.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1127699144"Mature Content. "Adult" content (pictures and stories) and role-play (material not suitable for viewers under 18 years of age, which is typically the Kim Possible fandom) is not allowed on the public boards. If you really wish to discuss these things, do them in your own time and privately. There are numerous places such as email, instant messaging, and even PMing in which you can discuss mature content. Members who feel their content is suitable for the board but may not be appropriate for children under 13 years of age are required to include a clear warning in the subject of the thread. This is a common rule, although sometimes this attracts more children into actually viewing the thread. The thread will be able to exist, but if complaints start happening and it starts to get out of hand, it will be locked and until someone convinces of why there's nothing wrong with it, it will simply stay that way and then be deleted. But seriously, this is a Kim Possible Messageboard. We want it safe for all ages. NOTE: There is quite a difference between PG-13 and NC-17. The latter should not appear on this site at anytime as an image, but only as a link that has a warning. But really, there should not be anything too mature for the age group that Kim Possible targets."

Maybe it's just the fact that I've been desensitized by American popculture but I have yet to see any pics on this site that I would deem mature. With the exception of some of Drakkenfan's works. Still perhaps a simple rating in the topic title would suffice?
