If I read your post correctly Stacy, you said that, "the 'violence' content never came up" and that you never recieved a report or complaint to that effect.  The reason as you stated for the removal, was "the underage appearance is why it came up for review in the first place and the reason for the removal."

Now in Primal's statement he says that, "I realize now that my image was reported because of the violence toward women.(Red Butt cheeks and the title"Not so hard").I thought it was cute and sexy and fun,but someone who had been abused didnt see it that way..i understand and appologize to the person who reported it.."

Since as I think everyone can agree, the issue of 'violence towards women' was never brought up, and that "the underage appearance is why it came up for review in the first place and the reason for the removal." I think it is a reasonable inferance that the person in question reported it on that basis rather then 'violence toward women', which if you believe Primal's post is the primary reason the person wanted the image removed.

Again, I'm not saying that the image itself did or did not deserve to be removed purely on 'underage appearance' issues.  I am simply pointing out the ironic fact that if the person in question had contacted Primal first with there concerns regarding "violence towards women" it would have been removed on that basis alone, if you believe his statement to that effect and I do, and by the way I join with you Stacy in applauding his senstivity on that.

The point I'm trying to make is that if we talk to each other more rather then rushing to dump it all on the Moderators to deal with, that I would think (or would hope at anyrate) that many members would most likely remove the objectionable images for reasons such as those the person stated privately to Primal.

This I think would benifit everyone in the sense that it would mean less regulating work for the mods, better and more understanding relationships between regular community members and so on.

I'm not suggesting that everyone is going to be as understanding as Primal when PMed with another members concerns about an image.  But again I think most people can be pretty reasonable about things if you give them a chance.... well... sometimes... mostly.. er.. occasionally... ums... it could happens... maybe...

But I don't know.  I can also see alot of folks taking things the wrong way and stuffs and it leading to ill feeling between folks.

It would be nice though, if more people could work things out between themselves or at least try to first.

I can dream can't I ?  ^^
