I'm going to argue against keeping the non-In-Universe Parallel Porn Titles. We might not be linking to them directly, but we are giving them free advertising, since any curious Tom, Dick, or Harry could just google the titles we give them. Honestly the page feels a bit like a Fanfic Recs page for pornos, and I don't think we want that around.

Made a CV thread for Parallel Porn Titles so please take further discussion on that trope there.

So, in this query, it was told that theoretically, I can make a page for H-game, for as long as it has no paedo stuff (it doesn't; there are two children in total, one never gets hurt, another is Posthumous Character who starved to death; I can further elaborate if needed) and has story which goes beyond providing context for sex scenes; I was also told to ask here once I'm ready to discuss it.

I gathered material in my sandbox, complete with description, but before I even try to implement it, I want to make sure that it's passable and it wouldn't be sent straight to cut list; if it's not acceptable, well, then I would just throw it out and do something else, albeit I would still be sad over wasting time on it. As I never dealt with similar projects, I wasn't sure what can or can't be troped, and run on "better safe than sorry" principle; if I accidentally leaved something which is still unacceptable (or, conversely, went overboard), or accidentally missed some ZCEs which were put there while writing the initial draft and forgotten about, you can slap me on the face for it, I would delete those entries. Other than that, even if it gets spared, I should double-check everything again before launching anyway, but it's mostly done.

Note that sandbox also contains unfinished project of a work page for completely unrelated fanfic, which is currently in a very raw state, partially because I started it before the fic was even finished.

[up] Having no knowledge of the game, it certainly seems like you've got a solid page there, aside from needing some grammar correction.

Just so I know — if an H-Game has gameplay beyond sex, is it acceptable to keep? I was looking over Recent Trope Edits and I found VideoGame.Shady Lewd Kart, and I want to make sure this is acceptable before I actually file any reports. It seems to have non-porn gameplay—I assume it's a keeper then?

I think if it has a story besides porn and there's nothing weird with minors, it's okay. I've troped House Party (2017) despite it being a porn game because there's a lot of story besides the sex.

I do some cleanup and then I enjoy shows you probably think are cringe.

Series.Goosebumps is on my watchlist, and I noticed deguiamark is adding a bunch of weird examples of Lingerie Scene to several work pages. Going back through their edits, they seem to have a strange preoccupation with male underwear, including underage boys.

As far as I know Lingerie Scene is specifically a Fanservice subtrope, correct? The subpages lean heavily towards People Sit on Chairs so might need some rewrite work. It's definitely not kosher to list 12 or 14 year old boys under a fanservice trope.

Ah, I didn't catch that this was a policy thread. I'll repost it in the long-term cleanup, thank you.

[up][up][up]I believe that PPT was a special case because the discussions were happening all over the forums and MacronNotes wanted to corral the discussion into a single thread. Not the usual.

It's also because it had a previous P5 verdict. The other mods told me that making a thread on either CV or TRS would be fine. I don't think there would be another situation regarding a trope that was never reviewed for content policy violations in the past.

@Morgenthaler We should also be asking ourselves whether or not those examples are accurate representations of the work. If they are, Goosebumps might sadly need to take a trip to the cut list.

I foolishly got myself bounced by adding bigotry to my troper page, so unless a miracle happens and I get unbounced someday like Ag Prov did way back when, don't expect any contributions from me anytime soon.

You mean a show marketed for age 7 and up and is shown on fox kids, cartoon network, Netflix and the hub.

I think that would be silly. And also way overreaching for this forum.

@Morganthaler: Also, if the user in question has a preoccupation that you think you can document, I'd recommend posting on ATT asking the mods to bring them in for a chat.

The "worst" thing Goosebumps did at its most edgy is be the Network equivalent of Nick's Are You Afraid of the Dark? which means its a corny and kid friendly Horror Anthology. It did require a "This thing may be too scary for little kids" disclaimer.

I don't understand why Baise-Moi was removed? Yes there's hardcore explicit scenes in it, but it's very much not a typical porn movie but a commentary on female rage in a world where men can rape women with impunity. How is that any different from, say, Gaspar Noe's stuff?

If you believe the decision should be reviewed, then submit a page restoration petition and make your case as to why it's not porn or pedo-pandering.

Huh.

Okay, here's what I'd do. Go here, hit the button about the content policy, and make your case. I'm pretty sure that that would automatically generate a report for us.

Lemme just holler this to ask the mods if this would be appropriate.
