Mod must have an high dexterity, totally avoided to comment over my post.

I still don't understand. We can't post pictures of a well covered model because people might know where to find the model...
It's the same thing as telling someone to not use google cause they might find porn there.
Sorry but that logic makes no sense to me.
Like we post them for fun... i posted mines just to fill the recap and let people know what is converted and what is not I never ever gave any link blame google for that.
I can very well see a fully clothed picture of an official render and go to google and type Lara porn or something, does that means that the picture should be removed and forbidden here?
It's relative isn't it.
lol

BTW

:P

Because we can't anticipate all the ways that people who can't comply with simple rules decide to go around them.

For myself, "no nudity" said it all. If I knew how to run this program, I could put out 500 images and not ONE would violate that rule.

But that wasn't good enough for this forum. Next we have to post a picture showing Lara with all the bits we expect to have dressed. Ward Dragon spent heaven knows how long airbrushing out bikini parts till only the "banned" parts were covered. Can't get much better than a visual, right?

Wrong. Still that wasn't good enough. Now, we've got people putting out nude images and painting kindergarten black dots instead of clothes.

Seriously, how much clarification is needed? A lot, apparently, because people don't possess the discernment to exercise proper judgment.

So let me say upfront, there will probably be another rules clarification for this forum. It's like a leaking dam. Plug one hole and another one will open up. I don't know when, of course, but I have no doubt some enterprising member is already thinking about how s/he can get around this set of rules.

For those who think I'm being rude or "yelling at you", well I am. Sorry, I'm tired of opening my inbox and seeing reports or going to the mod forum and seeing yet another image that could have easily complied with the rules, but the member decided not to. Maybe it was nipples, maybe it was a swimsuit cut to painful proportions. Either way, it was obviously a choice to push the limit.

Rexil, I fail to see how this forum is supposed to somehow be liable for anyone typing "Lara porn" into a search engine.

However, if your point is that any image that might turn up in such a search should not be posted here, I agree.

So, before you post any image, I hope you ask yourself if that image could be a result for such a search.

Why should I? Unless you think that cleavage or a small bikini is porn...
Which is our point, new rules are ridiculously strict.
As far I know no one of the active users have posted any kind of images that can be considered porn, there was cases yes but they where very rare and happened with new people.
You complained that many people where reporting things to the mods, but checking up those things aren't mods job? It looks like an excuse to have less work to do.
I still don't understand how images (no one was sharing models from those images here) of a covered model can do any harm... can you see behind it?
Are people sharing the model here?
Makes no sense.

Oh btw -Wrong. Still that wasn't good enough. Now, we've got people putting out nude images and painting kindergarten black dots instead of clothes.-
I hope you realize that those images where posted when the old rule was still valid or you didn't knew them?
Remember... images could be posted if it didn't show more than Lara bikini example. Which they didn't, they where covered by kindergarten black dots

You guys just changed that out of laziness is what it seems.
mod1- look yet another image of a model that has bits covered by kindergarten black dots which was under the rules.
mod2- again?
mod1- I have an idea.
mod2- do share please
mod1- let's scratch that rule so we won't have this much work anymore useless work with images under that rule.
mod2- genius.
mod3- editing the rules right now.

As much as I agree with rexil and every porter here (not to mention the traffic all those models generate)...

1) This is Justin's party.
2) Don't like how Justin's party is played? Getouttahere.

We are still trying to work something out of it.
If nothing can be done... I had no problems that time I was out of here having my fun over DA.

I think that would hurt the forum more if all your porters left, being a lurker here, xnalara section seems to be the most popular of the forums. Im not saying other sections are not, but xnalara is the most updated out of all of them.
Im sure the owner(s) of the forum wouldn't want traffic to decrease.

The forum has been here way longer than xnalara so I'm not even sure if they cared about any decrease in traffic.

tumblr's starting to sound real nice these days.

That's the point though. You used the recap thread to advertise to people that the models were available for download on your site even though you knew the downloads couldn't be posted here directly. And by going through the whole "it's a secret" charade you only confused new members and baited them into asking for download links. That's why the rules got more strict, to clarify that this behavior is not allowed and wasn't meant to be allowed under the original rules either.

Legal Statement

In the discussion about 'Ivy Valentine', we have reacted creative. We have launched a competition to modding 'Ivy' TRF friendly.

I appeal to the community. Become creative. Modify the models so that they conform to the rules. It will make the models available for download. It will be possible to show pictures. And the estimated requirement can be covered tasteful.

Works for XNALara and XPS

Tasteful image with a female character which not show any more skin than Lara does in her Legend bikini

BTW:
This day, I make the TRL Evening Dress TRF friendly
