Fun fact, this website has a weird way of treating you when you get banned. Because the only thing that will happen is that trying to post a comment or anything will result in an infinite loading screen that will not allow you to get anything on the sub.

I checked this by trying to post stuff on other subs, and it worked perfectly.

I came here after the fiasco of dndmemes and the invasion of goblin porn we used against reddit administrators. When posts stopped getting uploaded, I took my bow and left for here, a website advertised by mods that were themselves banned from reddit for allowing the 18 + content to exist.

This is context for me to you for a simple reason : I was banned after posting an alignment chart that included 18 + content. Something I thought was funny and hot and wanted to share it around.

The thing is, I marked it as NSFW and there aren't really any strict rules about the sub. Either I was banned by mods without warning, or enough people reported the post and it was enough. I tried contacting the mods, to no avail.

And so again, I will leave this website, disgusting by how bad the moderation here is. But not without leaving you a warning. Apparently, if you post something that will offend enough people (even if you mark it NSFW and is still RPG content) you will get your head chopped off.

I do not intend to use this account to even check any answer you would leave me. I no longer care. Just like I no longer cared about reddit.

Be careful and do not trust the rules, the mob of chaperones will get you to never be allowed to load a new post in.

May your 20s be natural.

Anyway, I'm an onlooker and have no affiliation with ttrpg.network - I just like sticking my nose in places where it doesn't belong.

I agree that the ban on NSFW content should be disclaimed in the sidebar, but at the same time, I think that's the community moderator's choice. IIRC DNDMemes on Reddit also blocked NSFW stuff.

However, I'd like to point out that ttrpg.network has open community creation and an explicit NSFW allowed stance. You could easily just create /c/spicydndmemes or something and designate it as where to put all your snitty pics. Although there are moderation concerns and potential drama with NSFW communities which have to be considered.

I'm all for having NSFW friendly places, but at the same time, if people want two separate communities for NSFW and SFW stuff, that makes sense to me. Nothing stopping people from subscribing to both of them.

Based on the only recently removed user and their visible posts I'd say it's fair to call it not suitable for the community and also that they had a raw deal - should have been given a warning or something before the ban. I'd be happy to see content like that but likely would need a dedicated community for spicy memes.

I definitely think the community should call out the limits.

Thanks for sharing the mod log and your views!
