Attention Pic Lovers: Guess We Have to move to the Am Pic thread...

The fact you and your girlfriend have not mentioned one shred of condemnation on the piece of shit who started this issue by fucking with Brat kind of leads me to believe you two were behind it. The guilty rarely condemn themselves now do they? Now I know it is circumstantial but if I were leading an investigation you certainly placed yourself in the cross hairs.

The point is you cannot condemn anybody for standing up for themselves and that is all she did. Now grow up and act your age. All of you condemning her grow the fuck up.

Look at this way. If you were discriminated against would you not stand up for yourself? Do you not wish your children to stand up for themselves?

It grind my ass when I deal with people like you. To think I have seen young men and women die for the rights of those here in America to be able to stand up for themselves then dogshit like you condemning her for doing so. You should just bite your tongue and apologize for being a total dipshit. You are a fucking disgrace to what this country stands for and what I have spent my whole adult life defending.

Go fuck yourself.

I'm not romantically interested in ANYONE on Lit, so there goes your "girlfriend" philosophy. :rolleyes:

SB indicated that LadyG told her that there were complaints (PLURAL) about her thread. I don't know how many complained, I don't know why they complained. I'm not bothered that SB petitioned the mods to have her thread re-established, in fact I wished her luck via PM. Point is there's a reason for the option to report a thread - hell I've reported threads before - the last one I remember reporting was in the personal section for spam advertisement, before that was some nutcase who was bashing on the military...very rarely do I ever report threads or posts...even when the posts are about me :cool:
 
Well, way to go, that's 500-plus pages of ultimately harmless content that was enjoyed by quite literally hundreds of people.

As a regular contributor to Rox and Pervy's wonderful BBW Pics thread, I'm mildly outraged that ALL our contributions have been annahilated in this way. My outrage is not so much directed at the individual who initiated the removal, but at the moderators/administrators of this forum for actually entertaining such lunacy. Why on earth did anyone think it necessary to DELETE this thread, which many of us have spent time and effort creating and contributing to? Why not simply relocate it?

Lit is going down the tubes, quite honestly. You only have to look at the hate-filled tirades that certain members post in certain forums (I'm thinking of the GLBT in particular; it's a safe bet that anyone who's ever spent any time in that area will know the exact name I'm thinking of!) and yet somehow get away with it to realise that the site is no longer run by anybody with an ounce of common sense, fairness of impartiality.

Anyway, it's too late now; what's done is done, irrespective of how utterly bloody mindless it was.

Let's get the pic threads back to where they were - anyone who doesn't like it, feel free to keep your tedious opinions to yourselves and just avoid the threads you don't like. After a bit of practice I'm sure you'll all find it really, really easy; hell, this is supposed to be a place people can go for a bit of light relief, not to moan and whinge about what the other users are doing!

Check out the new BBW thread on the Fetish Forum Helen. :rose:

Oh he called you my gf? I had missed that part. Yeah, I dont have a gf here eithier. But thats not soo bad (the bad, tough man saying that) as you would
be a Cool girlfriend! :cool:
 
I hate to add to the drama, but I feel like pointing some things out. And before I begin, I will say that I have friends on both sides of this issue.

I think it sucks that Brat's thread got moved. But I also think moving a thread with amateur pictures to AmPics is a fair thing.

That said, the other threads WERE in violation of the rules. As someone that has and almost sorta kinda not really maintains it, I know that as per the rules of this board, posting pictures that include genitalia is a violation of the rules set forth by the owner of the board. The fact that this rule is infrequently enforced does not change this fact.

I know people liked their threads, but it really is no different than speeding. Every day, I get in my car, and I drive 80 miles per hour. The speed limit is 70. I am in violation of the rules. I do this daily and regularly. Everyone else around me also drives 80 mph. We are all in violation of the rules. In a two month span, I got ticketed for this speeding. Why were the other cars not fined? No idea. I got busted; they did not. But then again, I've driven by a LOT of cops that had people pulled over when I was in fact breaking the law myself.

The truth is, no one has a leg to stand on because the threads that got removed had images that were in violation of the rules. Is this fair? According to the rules that we agreed to when we became members of the board, yes. We clicked the 'I agree' box.

Honestly, fighting amongst ourselves is doing no good. It might be more wise to petition the owners to relax this rule. But as it stands, if you violate the rules, it makes sense that you will eventually pay the price. It's no different than speeding. If you keep doing it, you WILL eventually get a ticket. I'm living proof. 4 tickets in my lifetime. That said, I've had 40,000 infractions of the law. I'm just lucky they don't enforce it better than they do.

I hope this does not anger anyone. I am not trying to point fingers anywhere, nor am I trying to choose sides.

For those that say 'why does Brat get her work moved to Am Pics and everyone else gets their thread removed' May I suggest you consider the fact that her pics WERE in fact amateur. She took the pictures and owns the copyright. As a published author, I'd get pretty pissy if people stole my work. This is true for pictures too. Posting pictures without proper copyright is the difference in this case. Theoretically, the people that own the copyrights on those images could complain to the owners of the site for the illegal posting of their work. Removing them prevents any potential issues for Literotica.

Again, I'm not trying to make anyone angry. I'm just pointing out facts and the likely logical reasons behind what happened.

^ that. Times 1000.

I don't really give a flying fuck who likes me or not. SB has taken a ton of shit since joining Lit for very little reason other than .....jealousy maybe?

The threads that got destroyed may well have been great and a ton of work; I'm sure I've perved on some myself. They were however; againt the ToS. Dem's the breaks. It's a risk (collective) you took when you posted pics in violation. I don't really care all that much *where* Brat's thread is located...it's on my subscriptions. That said.....no one had any F'ing business complaining about it.

Brat was unjustly fucked with, and by fuckity.....some people just aren't wired to be fucked with. Good for her. Chalk it up to her age if you wish, but I'm 36 Goddamn years old and that would've chapped my balls just the same as when I was 18. The people who have suffered "losses" here in terms of threads lost.....hate it for ya, but life goes on....and once again *rules were broken*. Are there rules that say you *can't* post pics in the PG?

If you have a thorn in your panties and you DIDN'T lose a thread....ummm...why? SB demanding fair treatment is nothing for you to get whiffed about; she should be applauded. Oh, and the PM thing? Way fucking middle school.:rolleyes:

The thing is, as long as the threads contained images which were in breach of the terms and conditions of this site then they were always at risk of getting deleted, all it takes is one pic and thats it, the whole thread is at risk. Before anyone says that they should just remove the offending pics think how many pages each thread was, it would take someone a huge amount of time to do and as each moderator here does the job unpaid and in their spare time its much to big a thing to ask of them.
 
Oh he called you my gf? I had missed that part. Yeah, I dont have a gf here either. But thats not soo bad (the bad, tough man saying that) as you would
be a Cool girlfriend! :cool:

LoL - he made that reference quite a few times...I think it was b/c you had my name w/ the Blonde pic thread :confused: -easy to understand how he got confused.

Yup. There was a similar purge not too long ago in GLBT for ToS violations.....after repeated warnings from the MOds, even. It's ridiculous to think they can go through the entire thread(s) and remove every post in violation; after careful consideration....

Ahh, yeah. Easy to assume. Well, atleast he said something nice inbetween
calling me disgusting, a dipshit and telling me to go fuck myself. Come to
think of it...IF you were my girlfriend, why would I have to go FUCK MYSELF. :confused:

On the other hand, if it isn't possible to enforce the T&C's in a reasonable and selective manner, as opposed to using the "scorched earth" tactics that we've just experienced, then isn't it time the T&C's were reviewed and made less restrictive?

There are plenty of sites which offer images and videos of exposed genitalia, sexual intercourse, etc etc, and strangely enough none of them get shut down (unless of course they host stuff that is actually illegal - child, animal, other such nastiness).

One other thing has sprung to mind, everyone has noticed how sluggish Lit has been lately, is it not possible that the threads which are chock full of images are partly to blame for this, soaking up all the servers available resources?
And deleting them helps the site run smoother again, is that a bad thing?

I cant answer that one, you'd need to discuss it with either Laurel or Manu.

Maybe there are laws/regulations in place that require them to have the T&C's as they are, or maybe its their own choice, its their site, their rules, as long as they stay within the law too.

The first erotic thread was deleted because of cum shots and pussies dripping cum. Morri started a second thread and warned everyone what would happen if that type pic was posted again. Did the asshats listen?
