Since when did posting pedo-bear pictures become an offence on GS? Just posted it in another thread with pictures fighting each other and apparently my submission of a pedobear pic warrented a post deletion and warning.

What do you think of this? and also use this as a warning, don't post them now..

that specific bear isn't allowed on GS, as is other stuff from The Site That Must Not Be Named, and ED. Truth. I've been suspended from GS because of mentioning a 3guys-*cough* thing, and linking to that specific ED page.

Indeed. I recommend that GenTom provide us with an example of this "PedoBear", whatever it may be.

Probably because it got used so much that it attained fad status.

It's not because of that place, it's because, as someone once said (mod or admin, can't recall), "it glorifies/promotes pedophilia". I guess guns don't glorify/promote violence then...

It's because of that place, and because pedo-bear is, well, a pedophile bear... Lolicons all over the world shiver whenever someone utters his name.

There are supposedly young, innocent children on this site, and therefor we must NOT corrupt their young, fragile minds with sick and twisted things that comes from *chan and the likes.

Pretty soon, every image fad that didn't originate here and posting links to different sites will be a bannable offence. They're trying to isolate us from the internet so they can become powerful. All our brains belong to them :cry:

How does it corrupt their minds? It's just a bear that stands for pedophilia. Like Neon-Tiger said, a gun stands for violence, so should they mod every post that shows a picture of a gun? :?

Actually, the reason they don't want us to link things and fads from there, is because they hate fads... Even "Touch her shoulder" is modable...

Well, I'm not with or against pedobear or guns, but the things they stand for is something I don't want. To me, pedobear is just a funny thing that pops up whenever someone posts lolicon. But that's just me, because I have a sick and twisted form for humour. I really don't know why GS thinks That Site is modable, and neither do I get why they think Retarded or Gay is modable... I didn't write the ToU, I'm just trying to help people not do the same mistakes as I keep doing :P

What I hate is that sometimes these changes are made, and we aren't really notified. Maybe im doing something wrong, but are we supposed to read the "Read before posting" sticky every single time we log onto GS? Because I remember the I used the R-Word and got moderated, but I didn't even know it had become against the TOS! Same applies with the Pedo-Bear images. If there was a way to let everyone know of TOS amendments, like a message to all users or something, then I wouldn't mind as much :(

The image is not allowed because it represents one of the most offensive crimes know to man, the sexual molestation of a child. If you can find any humor in that you really need help. It is offensive, there is no redeaming value in it, and it is not allowed. Users that post it will be warned and if they continue the punishment will become more severe.

Seriously, if you see nothing wrong with what the image represents, for shame.

One thing to add: When the ToU was amended a few months back, Jody made a Community Announcement about it, and I believe we made a thread in Ask the Mods.
