The Place for Purging Porn and Pedo-Pandering (AKA P5 flag evaluations)

I do remember that P5 has had to make decisions on a few cases where physical age and mental age didn't match up. Those were rather contentious.

...Alright, guys, can I take your drink order?

Scotch on the rocks, Talisker 10 Year if you have it.

Kidding aside, took a look through the Niels archive, and saw nothing that would warrant a cut. Should be able to look through some of the various manga flagged in the near future.

"Polite life will fill you full of cancer." - Iggy Pop "I've seen the future, brother, it is murder." -Leonard Cohen

I have no idea what fic it being talked about so, so here's the key question:

Are you saying that you consider the characters as they're depicted on the show to act to young, or does the fic itself portray characters as acting infantile and state that fact?

No, what Abstract Indigo is saying about the fanfic they flagged is that, in the fanfic, while the ponies are depicted as sentient (i.e. as in the show), the humans are depicted with animal intelligence.

Basically, it's using ponies to portray beastiality analogous to reality but with reversed roles.

They're not mentioning any children involved, pedophilia is only brought up on a question of hard the policy is against beastiality (i.e. is it as hard-line as pedo or is it working on more lax porn/nonporn rules)

Looked over a bit of Hybrid Child, didn't see anything to justify the flag reason, especially an all-caps hyperbole. Only a brief fade-to-black or two between adults (albeit with the typical Seme/Uke thing with one being younger looking going on)

Okay, yeah.

That sounds really skeevy now that I fully understand the content and I don't think that has a place on this wiki.

I still remember when someone flagged Sailor Moon(a kid's show) of all things. It's amazing how over-zealous the local prudes can get with the reporting system.

There were also people flagging random stuff to make a point of not liking the P rules.

Check out my fanfiction!

Take a look through the edit banned/suspended thread posts from that time. Very educational in how some people can get when something they don't like is happening -even if it's for the overall health of the wiki.

@shoboni: The first Sailor Moon flag was made, as I recall, in a time when we were still figuring out the rules and people were essentially flagging works all over the place because they didn't know what was and was not going to fly.

It was actually made pretty late in(and a show that's PG-13 at the highest and marketed to kids is pretty obviously not up for cut-listing)

Whatever the case may be, it's water under the bridge now, and I'd like to think that the panel's accrued enough experience to make the right call in most cases.

That's true, but you still get the occassional dumbass who makes stupid flags either out of mule-headed prudishness or to actually denigrate the P5 policy. The Council could do well without such distractions, however minor they are.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.

Don't forget how we used to get lots of reports based on the quality of the article rather than the suitability of the work.

I remember when Cupcakes was in the tubes for ages even though it's pretty standard horror/creepypasta-style grimdark like Hostel or Saw because someone called it Torture Porn on the report.

Caligula really should have a page, considering A Serbian Film is more graphic/offensive, yet has a locked stub because of its notoriety. Also it has about three edited versions and a fascinating Troubled Production that's worth documenting here.

For what it's worth, a recap of the things up for vote:

• Acid Town: No vote.
• Awkward Silence: No vote.
• The Baby Jesus Butt Plug: No vote.
• Breakfast Club: No vote.
• Caligula: 1 angel.
• The Carp On The Chopping Block Jumps Twice: No vote.
• Chakona Space: 1 angel.
• Endless World: 2 angels.
• Fish In The Trap: No vote.
• Haru wo Daiteita: No vote.
• Hybrid Child: 1 angel.
• Lula The Sexy Empire: No vote.
• Niels: 1 angel.
• Oneiroi Series: No vote.
• Rules: No vote.
• Ryona: 1 devilhead.
• Sexy Games: 2 devilheads.
• Your Human And You: No vote.

New work: Guro Idol. What should we know and all that?

Just based off the Archive of Our Own info:

Does this even need a discussion? I feel like I need a shower after copypasting all of that.

Is this one of those times when it's easier to count what isn't there?

Lace panties. That's it. It's getting the ax.

Wow doesn't that sound ominously threatening.

Choose your punchline:

• "Not enough bestiality."
• "Still better than American Idol."
• "If 'Wood Chipper' is bannable, what happens to Fargo?"
• "...blood, guts, gore, violence, mutilation, guns, knives, bodies on fire, strangulation..."
• "...The Aristocrats!"

I'm picking number 2, and also "could be about 20% coolercrazier"

The plot, from reading the trope page, sound like someone tried to merge Mai-Chan's Daily Life and The Idolmaster...put it down.

Funnily enough up until that fifth chapter it barely had anything objectionable at all.
