Removing underage stories

[Rabbit1]

I have talked to Tiger About this matter ---and we have sort of a compromise to this issue---we will no longer accept stories with subject under the age of 13----in other words no Preteen stories

and we will only remove those stories with subjects under 13--- this is one of the reasons I had not started removing or rejecting stories---but as of now no under 13 stories will be published and removal will start soon

This is firm---you can post your opinions ---but it will change nothing

This is the second time I have tried to respond to your comments. We don't seem to be talking about the same topic. I'm complaining about this unrealistic decree about all characters having to be 18 in sexual situations. I'm not talking about prepubescents at all. The latest edict from Rabbit1 would seem to suport my position. Support for my point can be found by going to the following site: http://www.avert.org/aofconsent.htm

I am supporting no ones point of view ---I am just trying to reach a compromise that we all can agree on---so we can just get back to reading and writting stories--instead of trying to change each others minds on a issue ----Each person has a valid opinion---and everyone can come up with some kind of support for their opinion---

I would just like to put this issue behind us and move forward

I must congratulate both of you for comming to a reasonable compromise.

Thank you

I am happy about a more realistic age limit that excludes preteens. I have no personal problem with material that involves consensual teenage activity of any kind, or the mention of uninvolved preteen characters. I only have a problem with material that involves non-consensual, gratuitous sexual or other violence against preteen characters.

I hope that in the application of the stated policy, judgments will be based also on the description of the characters and not just the stated age, and material should be assessed on that basis even if no specific age is mentioned.

I will have to be the judge of the stories ----and my judgement will be based on the black and white issue ---no stories of any preteen nature will be published--forced or other wise---now that you have brought up the question of non specific age mentioned ---those will be judged on a case by case basis---like if the story says he picked her out of her crib----then I would consider that clearly preteen---but if the story says he ripped the clothes off the young girl---unless there is something else in the story that leeds me to believe it was a preteen then I would publish that story.

now I am human and I may make a mistake ---but if I error ---I will always try to error on the side of protecting the site

I am perfectly happy with that, and thanks for the clarification.
