    evidently someone has a sore vagina. Im guessing LJ, not sure why it would get locked in the basement though.

    I locked it temporarily but just unlocked it. We were having a bit of discussion in the mod lounge to try to figure out whether we should just let everything go. Inconclusive, but I locked it in the interim.

    Anything goes but nudity in the basement, right?

    They were probably afraid of people revealing people's identities.

    Right, you can't do that in the basement either.

    It was a preemptive lock?

    :confused:

    It was originally in the srs bizness forum so probably had to determine who was getting infractions and who wasnt. Imo there shouldve been several handed out in that thread.

    Reps for taking the fall for LJ.

    Generally, everything goes in the basement. The thread was initially in the other forum, then was moved to the basement. We were trying to figure out whether it was best to infract/warn for things that broke the rules before the thread was moved to the basement, or whether to let it go, or what. It's kind of a gray area, so I locked it while the mods tried to sort it out. At this point, it's here, so it's fair game.

    With lots of mods and rules that have some gray, there are going to be mistakes or hiccups along the way. PM a mod or report a post and keep us in the loop as we get through this initial period of adjusting to the new rules. There's quite a bit of healthy discussion in the mod forum about situations that are borderline, and to the extent possible, we're trying to do more warnings/unapproving (or modifying) posts instead of just infracting. But, obviously, we appreciate the insight into what we need to do (1) moderate enough people will participate without (2) nanny-stating this all to hell.

    ^^^this. It got moved mid-way, so it was unclear how to handle that.

    Do you know anyones real name? And no one's ID would be revealed that they haven't revealed themselves. Hell, go to the twitter thread all those people revealed their identities. But don't post anything from it because that would be against the rules since they didn't give you permission to post public info.

    I got banned for posting a picture before which was found on a facebook page, which was posted by said poster. You don't want to be fucked with, keep your shit private.
