" - You may only post yourself in swimwear for a suitable location, such as at a beach or pool. "

You guys are so fucking stupid. So now we get you guys from england deleting pictures of swimwear on the street or what have you because you don't realize that in places like California or even Vancouver during the summer, swim suits are regular attire. That's just what we wear here.  


So? No one is forcing, or even asking anyone to upload their photos onto this website, or post them either.

If you really want to show people what you look like, you can put on a t-shirt and shorts. Not difficult.

brookie chookie23, since when has Livewire been a complete democracy? Almost every moderation decision is made without user input, and this is no different.

There has been a guideline for pornographic material ever since I've been a member.

Straight up porn is a fair enough call. Don't really need to see which chick is getting nailed by a black man with a fake 12 inch cock.

Disallowing bikini's is a tad overkill though, I think davey jones is overstepping his boundaries on what is and isnt acceptable.

Are you equating nudity with porn?

If any means of authority makes a decision without consulting the people it affects

They are allowed, just by pools or at the beach. Where people normally wear them.

Not at all, but I do know that most of the population is unable to tell the difference between the two.  

Are you trying to say you want to allow nude pictures of members, given they are tasteful?

No, actually I see no need for any nudity here, but I think it's sad that nudity is banned while language that would make a sailor blush is given a free pass.

I would, however, like to educate some people about the difference of simple nudity and pornography.

Actually, they kind of are, seeming as how if we try to link to an outside image LiveWire automatically takes it down and uploads it to its own servers and then requires mod approval.

I don't know how long you've been around, but there was a time before LW had IBs when everyone used Igloos. Then LW got IBs but still encouraged using igloos. Then David and the maker of Igloos (a LW member) had a falling out and David started encouraging use of image baskets.

So in a way, LW does encourage use of the image baskets, and if you want to post an image, they do indeed force you to upload it to LiveWire.
