PLEASE READ: Image posting - update April 2025

[ToPleaseHim]

I guess the difference is, on a site in which flirtation/exploring/sexing is ostensibly the raison d’etre (unless you stick to reading stories), game threads are a silly time-waster where people can get to know each other. Many Litlationships started this way. Whereas…I don’t understand why people would come to a sex board to own the libs, keyboard-warrior style. I don’t see that as classic come-hither banter. I used to like to rile Dribble by calling it “pathetic.”

Interesting factoid: the first political thread was created in 2000. The Playground was created in 2002. People come here for different reasons and that’s a major reason for the longevity of this site. Many threads and even entire forums here do not appeal to me, but that doesn’t make them wrong to even exist.

If you post images to Literotica, please fully read the forum picture posting guidelines. You can find a link to the rules on every page of this forum and I’m going to copy and paste them here to make them even easier to find.

Note: there is a trend of sharing photos of girls who look too young to be depicted here. Not only are they young, it is evident that the persons posting the images don’t own the rights to post them. There are several posters who quote these images and write out sexual thoughts about the person depicted. There is no place for these behaviors at this site. Stop immediately. Several people are being closely monitored for this type of posting.

Below are the forum image posting rulers. If image threads contain numerous violations, the entire thread will be removed.

Members in good standing may post images in the Literotica Forum. However, anyone considering posting a photograph should understand all of our image rules, the legal concerns, and privacy issues before posting any attachment.

The Literotica forum offers three different ways that members can display images they own the rights to. Because of the massive size and high activity of the Literotica forum, none of the image posting methods are pre-moderated. However, we remove any images which are brought to our attention that violate our Community Guidelines, forum rules, copyright statute, or any U.S. laws.

The three methods of posting an image on the Lit forum are as follows:

1. Attachments. These are user-owned images which are uploaded to our server by users. All attachments must be posted by a legal adult who owns the rights to the image as well as meeting our community guidelines and forum rules or they will be removed if brought to our attention. Accounts will be suspended for repeated violations.
2. Remote linking. These are images which are hosted on your server and displayed in your posts. As with attachments, they must always meet our guidelines and forum rules.
3. Avatars/Profile Pics. These are your images which you can upload to display on your profile page and next to each forum post or comment you make. As with the others, they are required to follow our guidelines and rules.

The Literotica Forum Photo Guidelines have been created to conform to United States law in regards to content and copyright laws. If you disagree with the policy, please refrain from posting any images on Literotica.

Here are the basic Forum Photo Guidelines:

• Legally, we can allow soft nudity, but under current United States law, photographs (does not apply to non-photographic images) posted on this site may not contain “sexually explicit conduct”, which the government defines as:
• Actual or simulated:

1. sexual intercourse, including genital-genital, oral-genital, anal-genital, or oral-anal, whether between persons of the same or opposite sex;
2. bestiality;
3. masturbation;
4. sadistic or masochistic abuse; or
5. lascivious exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of any person.

• Per the above, we do not allow the posting of hardcore, dick pics, vagina closeups, sex toys being used, etc.
• All persons in all adult-themed photographs must be at least 18 years of age.
• The photographer of any posted photograph must be at least 18 years old.
• All persons in photographs must have consented to being photographed and having the images posted publicly. We do not allow voyeur content or other photos where the persons in the photographs did not allow their image to be used.
• Image must not contain URLs or other advertisements.
• You must have a legal right from the copyright owner to post any images - i.e. photographs/drawings that you yourself created and/or have a legal license or other legal permission to post. You retain all legal rights to your images when posting them on Literotica. You are only granting us a non-exclusive license to display them for as long as you leave them up on your account.

Anyone caught repeatedly violating these guidelines may have their image posting privileges revoked or have their account banned without notice. You can also be held legally responsible for posting copyright protected content by the copyright holder, so please do not post anything that you do not own.

If you see any images which violate these guidelines, please report the post using the “Report” button at the bottom of each post.

All images posted on the Literotica Forum should be considered public. When you post images anywhere online, people that you do not expect to see them may see them. Please do not post images on Literotica (or any other website or app) that you would like to remain private.

Literotica may remove any image for any reason without notice, and may periodically purge all old images from the forum without notice. Please backup your photos as they could disappear from Literotica at any time.

If you are a copyright holder who believes a user is posting your images without permission, we are happy to remove the images and warn or ban the user for violating our rules. Please see our DMCA page for information on contacting us, or simply report the posts you believe are violating your copyrights directly in the forum.

So this means those pay-by-the-minute videos will have to go. I’m assuming that they show naked people; I’ve never watched one and i doubt people would pay for a minute of watching two grown, fully clothed adults kissing each other on the forehead.

 

[Llehlla]

Oh well.
Fun while it lasted.

I'll wait (a bit) and see how "the cookie crumbles", but it seems that pretty much all of my work will be excised.

Been posting nudity, explicit hand-drawn nudity here since 2003 (started under a different user name).

But it's their site and their rules. And what with the new fascist regime, I understand some cover your ass (LITerally) policies. AHhahahahahahahaahaa! so funny.

and sad.

I guess Llehlla and her thread will be making a complete exit. I should announce it a few days before deleting , though, in case some loyal followers want to save their favorite images and written pieces. I ASSUME we will see no more AI on this site, either.

AI isn't supposed to be on this site, anyway. If you see it, report it. If you do it, stop and delete.

There has been so much AI on this website entire threads based on it. I have never liked it, but I have not reported every single one of the many images created by AI.
And now I assume and hope I won’t have to since all of our images have to go.

It’s amazing how few people report AI images.

 

[THROBBS]

It’s amazing how few people report AI images.

To be fair, MOST folk don't even recognize it. They typically don't care either.

 

[Llehlla]

To be fair, MOST folk don't even recognize it. They typically don't care either.

I think the ones who care are artists who work hard to create appealing images “by hand.”

 

[1darknightowl]

Unfortunatly I don't recognise most AI. Some are obvious. But if we reported every imge wouldn't it anoy the moderators as there are probably 100s?

indeed.

And since the new policy is not JUST about AI images... and there are some other "issues" — burn it all to the ground!

 

[1darknightowl]

burn it all to the ground!

Hope you mean AI and not the site? I'll happily burn AI to the ground.

Well damn. No beastiality.

Also, no @LadyLascivious1 genitals.

There goes my Friday night.

Don’t worry; pony play isn’t beastiality so your favorite kink is still fair game!

 

[Lord Pmann]

And lascivious genitals? The government said they’re illegal. What’s wrong with your genitals?

They are more addictive than class A drugs

 

[Saltfountain]

They are more addictive than class A drugs

Unfortunately, unlike class A drugs I don't seem to be able to access them

 

[Lord Pmann]

They are more addictive than class A drugs

But I can post about class a drugs. Not a nipple or a clit, though.

 

[ydahecnot]

Maybe about a Class A nipple

 

[Saltfountain]

You can post about a nipple or clit.

But while you're posting class A drugs, send some here...

Wait a minute, Mr. Postman

 

[AmberLGreen]

I wonder if those who are “only here for the stories” will disappear when they can’t see nudes?

 

[AmberLGreen]

Wait a minute, Mr. Postman

Thank you for putting that ear worm

Now I am imagining my postman in the nude

 

[barefootgirl69]

I wonder if those who are “only here for the stories” will disappear when they can’t see nudes?

Nope. I don't care about the nudes, I love frolicking on the forum. My alt should be "frolickingforumfantasy".

 

[AmberLGreen]

I am not here for the nudes or the stories. I would say I was here for the people but I don’t like most of them . I guess the real reason I am here is that there is nothing good on the telly
