[up] Those works, exactly. While there exists versions of them without the sex, they're both intended to be (and primarily sold as) pornographic parodies.

Caligula didn't even enter my mind, as that was banned by admin fiat, anyway.

Komodin more or less summed up my opinion, although I'm inclined to leave Ryona alone on grounds that it's an exampleless stub.

Did you guys check the related tab? Some examples there seem kinda skeevy to me with how they posit random things as catering to ryona fetish. Even if you leave the definition page, I think it could be better to put some no-linking flag on it?

Since you guys deserve to be exposed to media that isn't horrible every now and again, I figured I'd link the sci-fi short story that Fluffy Pony is apparently ripped off wholesale from. Needless to say, it's a rather more digestible piece of work.

What's precedent ever done for us?

I made a clean sandbox of Fluffy Pony but my internet glitched out and it did not save.

Not sure I have the stomach to do it again tbh.

[up] Protip: When you're making a really big edit to a page, I open Notepad and make the changes there, then copy+paste it back into the page. In this case, you would put it into the sandbox rather than the actual page, but it would still help.

[up][up], [up] Just be careful when copy-pasting from Notepad: Sometimes its formatting and TV Tropes formatting don't like to play nice with each other, so double check after pasting.

Looking over the rCVR listings:

I've handled all the "cut requested" works and they are now only waiting for the cut.

While I can't help for Fluffy Pony, I've done a bit of cleaning for the description in Sandbox.Hivefled. Someone might want to look over the example section for the same reasons as Fluffy Pony though.

HookerVerse needs some more support/opposition on the "lock or not" question.

Methinks that ~JeanPo (the user who did the flagging) didn't know that it already went through a review.

I'll just zap it off the queue, then.

We still need a third vote for Fan Fic/Travels Of The Trifecta and The Manga Guide To Psychosomatic Illnesses, by the way. As far as the other two works, I'm still indecisive as to what I should give Endless World and Ryona.

Could you give a quick explanation as to why, exactly, my reasons weren't good enough for the restoration of Time Braid? I feel it's unnecessarily harsh to block a work based on several sentences referencing underaged sex in a multiple hundred thousand word story. By doing so we are elevating pedophilia to a mythic state of importance.

If A Song of Ice and Fire had a paragraph describing a character's romantic affairs as a child, it would not be similarly removed.

I welcome discussion of this matter.

The "no paedopandering" policy is a zero tolerance policy. Thusly yes, one or two sentences are potentially enough to get a work removed. Besides, as some 5P folk have said Time Braid to them sounded like it treated it like a good thing.

Isn't the overarching context more important, though? Lolita is a great example; it involves repeated questionable depictions, yet is ultimately acceptable due to its cultural relevance and its take on the events in question.

In the story in question, it's a natural outgrowth of the character's development. It's not described sexually(in fact, it's primary description is in a comedic, slightly negative tone), and while it does lead to a sexual evolution in the main character, this takes place after her age has increased to levels where it's not a problem anymore. The very next sexual mention has the main character being 19 years old.

If the scene were thrown in for no realistic reason, I would agree with you entirely, but I don't think we can delete entire works because of very minor parts of those works.

[up][up] Just throwing in my two cents-I don't consider treating pedophilia "comedically" or even "slightly negatively" to be a better case for keeping it than outright treating it positively.

Hi, folks. I tossed Guinea Pig your way, partly based on its description and partly on the fact that some creep was masturbating over it and other torture porn works.

Makes me wonder if I should have flagged The Vomit Gore Trilogy as well.

[up] Going by the trope list, The Vomit Gore Trilogy looks rather suspicious as well. Give it a flag.

Nah, it's cool. This is what we P5 Guys are here for.

I found another page made by that fetishistic guy: Tumbling Doll Of Flesh. Going by its summary, this one seems open-and-shut, though.
