Description
My dear friends, many of you already know that the episode Canals Of New Mars : All You Need Is Love, had been removed by Renderosity Admistration, because of TOS violation.
First I'd like to say that I understand the concerns of the site webmasters and administrators standing against bigothry and possible law suits. I agree also with the TOS Guidelines, as far as I understand them.
But I've some problems to understand the applicative interpretation of the TOS Guidelines. Who decides? What are the evidence based criteria for removing a work? The proofs have to be only circumstantial, do they?
For example: The moderator suggested me to move backward the two characters. Since I'm a consultant for the Public Attorney in Padua and for this reason I cooperate with some US Law Firms, I wondered "How many inches?" in order not to be found guilty twice and banned as recidivist. Remember the Lewinsky affaire.
Are the moderators aware of the cultural differences in their statements? I'm wondering about it because, in my opinion, there are a lot of sexist stuff exposed in RR with no blame at all.
In the exchanged mails who resulted in my first official ammonition, the chairperson (moderator?) who represented Renderosity in front of me, NEVER showed the will of understanding that different cultures and different legal systems can render very difficult the correct understanding of the US Laws (or what that chairperson pretended to be the US Laws). Neither this person showed the intention of opening a forum on the censorship problem which is very requested here in RR.
Since it seemed to me that this chairperson was judge, jury and hangman in my "trial", I felt the statement that "regardless to your feelings" this is my opinion, take it or live it, culturally very inappropriate, insensitive and ethnocentric. Cultural callousness is a "crime" in a site that proudly presents itself as multicultural.
Since I never retreat from a battlefield, privately I'll send a mail with the address of the website where I posted the removed episode to anyone who askes for.
In the future, in order to avoid such accidents, I will post on Renderosity the Bigots Version and the Director's Cut Version in another web site privately sending the addresses to anybody who asks for it.
Even if some Popes had nothing to say about it, bigots put big underpants also on the the anguished, writhing, tormented souls in Michelangelo�s �The Last Judgment� over the altar of the Sistine Chapel. After that, who am I to be offended!!!

Flavia, I saw nothing wrong with the post, but I wasn't surprised. I will explain in detail to you, Sig...

I saw it. Nothing wrong with it. As long as it was marked "nudity" I don't see a TOS violation. Perhaps they objected to the writing that described the scene, too. Then again, I post nudes and have had a finger wagged at me over a thumbnail that I thought was well within guidelines. Prudery or caution? Probably a bit of both.

I've never seen the image either, but then again...I just haven't got the time to spare, to see everybodies individual posts, everyday... ...having said that, I won't take sides with anyone either, but be reassured, it has happened even to my son, a long time ago (jif3d) and many other's. I can tell, that you are a fighter, because you didn't get the chance and outcome you had hoped for...(or did you ? by now ? *** so I suggest, let by-gone's be by-gone's, if you want a stress-free life ...nobody is going to win that war ! BTW I am more into photography and not really qualified to make judgements or comments on all your other work. But BIG THANKS AND HUGS..for cruising through my gallery, occasionally. Cheers BB
