bshafer difference in that link you showed and the pic mentioned.
1-I have NEVER had a problem with nudity or erotica. Plain and many times stated. The line was crossed in the pic in question and actually boarderlined in a few.
2-the Person is beautiful no doubts about it. but beautiful or not what was shown was just not acceptable.
3-Nearly everyone of us has had worked removed due to a TOS for one reason or another or someone question it. From "her hand APPEARS to be on her breast" to "they LOOK to sexual together" for a picture of a couple. With that in mind I find it very close to the apparently truth what Bonni said in her post in this thread(post number2)
Apparently it is if a person likes the pic or not. if they person is titilated with it that makes the difference if it stays or not. -that- is not right nor fair to other artists in here.
3-to answer the snippet about the "take it to the person not a mod' no. I did not know the person on a personal level. 9 times out of 10 you do not get a friendly response nor action taken. THe person had been noted in a picture BEFORE the one in question with a link to the TOS. The person was FULLY aware of it. As the more adult thing. Oh PULLLLEease. I have seen some of the posters here level down far below this is more then a few threads but nice try. Frankly I do not give a herrings tail fin if you think it was adult or not. I didnt post her name. The topic was to express the disbelievement about the level of some of the TOS violating pictures that now call rendo home, specially since I have seen FAR less get yanked. Heck I have seen pics get yanked and near everyone goes "what the heck was THAT taken down for" but something like the one in question stays?
now if the same picture had been at renderotica...no prob.(the thread was not about the artistic merrit of it at all please note that though I know more then a few will not, just so they can try and jab with a few more sticks}

Now here is something I am betting 90% of you are not thinking about. that I realized with droping my jaw over these pics and geting a better opinion on them then just my opinion.
What if someone here...didnt report to the mods..or report to the person herself BUT just went and reported Rendo for breaking the Obsenities laws? ( Ididnt even know that could be done till someone said to me "hey you need to reported it or someone will take the site down for breaking the obsenity laws") I had no clue about them. Did abit of peaking around.
On more then a few of the sites I looked at for info...it was stated a site can be closed down and FINED or worse for housing in plain public site pictures that are considered pornagrapic or of an adult nature that -underage children can freely view-.
guess what. we ALL know there are children here under that age.
So tell me. would you rather prefer someone NOT speaking up and Rendo geting shut down? a Possible report made on it? or rather someone take it to the Mods?
See frankly the name calling here of "secondary motive" and " more adult thing" do not phase me in the least.
I have always loved erotic art have spoken for a more lenient TOS. but one thing is erotic, or sensual or nudity and another is grabbing your crotch in a near close up.
If you can sit here and tell me FAKE poeple doing it is bad but REAL people doing it is ok. then something is wrong.

Also if you noted, as I said I find it ironic that I had to post something because of the times I had fought for erotica to be allowed. I had to swallow my words because now I understand a few of those people that were saying they didnt like having to send their children out of the room when they looked at rendo.
~chuckles~ and of course the people that 'liked' the pic arent going to "complain" they ...well....er..""liked"" it.
there is a time when titilation goes -too- far. and the photos where geting more and more over the TOS line.

Also ...I bet that if Vicki or Steph petit where posed in that same manner....and posted I bet 10 to 1 she would be yanked down. (really love the edit button) Oh and as Ijust said to someone in IM. the reason I didnt link to the pic{please also note the aformentioned finding out about something called the obscenities law} is because I didnt want a ton of people running to the pic which we all know would of included -underage- kids. (afer all we all where that age and know darn well and good the "ohhh we HAVE to go see how bad it is" syndrom}
