What are the rules around that?
Adult chat should be ok if it's within the rules :)
But I do feel the rules should be more specific because everyone's idea of "adult" is different in my opinion.
"Content must not be graphic, obscene, defamatory or libellous. It must not encourage, promote or glorify any forms of self-harm of self- neglect."
I will attempt to word this carefully, but it has just occurred to me that if someone posted on the forums that certain adult activities were wrong, and that everyone must abstain, then it could be argued that they were promoting self-neglect.
At the time of typing this comment, it is after the 9pm watershed (UK time). Therefore, I am not ashamed or embarrassed to admit that within the context of this 'adult' discussion, I do not practice or encourage self-neglect.
That is as much as anyone needs to know... for now, within this discussion. If I were to elaborate on the precise details of how I do not practice self-neglect, it could then be deemed as graphic and obscene.
I think my entire life is a potential glorification of self neglect. I should be banned
Exactly. What's 'graphic'. A logo is a kind of graphic. I'm asuming they are talking about showing genitals things like genitals, serious injury or sugery maybe. But at it's root graphic just means a thing has been depicted in an image. Obscene is similarly subjective. Do they mean colloquially obscene or legaly obscene? Because in R v Peacock a guy seling DVDs of home made extreem gay BDSM porn out of his back door was deamed not obscene. If it's colloquially obscene the term is going to vary masivly depending on who you ask. At least defermation and liable have long standing legal definitions and case law to show where the line is. They might have been on safer ground with pornographic as oposed to obscene but that wouldn't catch, for example, educational material like images of sugery or medical exams for example.
