Casette: You may not be far from the truth with that, didn't something similar happen at 'Rotica where all the nasty pics had to be pulled because the credit card Company's demanded it???

Yeah - I remember reading that was exactly the case - it was images dealing with rape and torture if I remember right.

The almighty dollar speaks - that's a fact of life all over. Rotica found that out the hard way - almost losing their entire way of doing business which would have SHUT IT DOWN ENTIRELY - no business, no gallery...(hint hint hint) Gripe about the business side of Rosity all you want, but if it goes, so does the Gallery. (NOTE: I've never bought anything from the Rosity MP - so I'm not plugging anyone here)

BTW - JenX was right - the first post  entirely read as a complaint calling them on the TOS. Direct complaint - no sarcasm at all (there's some research that says a little over 40% of meaning is lost in written communication - this was clearly the case) - and then I was totally bewildered and frustrated that you were NOW complaining that it was removed - I was thinking, "PICK ONE, WILL YA?!?!"

And because the Admins took the complaint seriously (as did I - and I know I'm not alone) and didn't want to ruffle feathers (remember, this IS a business site - and BTW there's a Gallery), they're being hung in post after post.

With all this whining about "not being a community" would everyone suddenly become happy if Rosity became like DAZ in that it's a marketplace first and, oh by the way - we have a Gallery?

That's a real question, BTW - not a gripe - would it make things easier to define as far as TOS if the open-notion of the site changed? Keep in mind that this would be a drastic change, and become MUCH easier for those-in-power to remove/ban/never upload/dissaprove images. It would become a direct representation of "look what you can do with our products" and not filled with a lot of  "I did this in less than 3 minutes (I even timed myself) and here is my new ART. I'll be able to upload another one after midnight - so watch out for it!"

I don't give 2-s**ts about nudity - what I DO care about is a complete lack of creativity, or even TRYING to make an interesting image - if you're just learning, more power to ya - and we all understand that when you post - so don't think I'm saying only seasoned professionals should post!

The TOS change as they receive more complaints - if you're not complainging, then be VERY obvious that the post is sarcastic as there's no "tone" in typed words.
