Alright, brilliant idea. Guys. Let's take all the porn threads, and push them somewhere else. Oify.

Registration is 13+ which is another reason to delete fast threads

I change my vote from 'Yes' to 'No', on the condition that ALL of the porn threads get removed. I don't feel it's right to just delete that one thread because "lol you're all weird die in a hole, weird faggot", but at the same time I can see how some folks parading their fetish around is really fucking disruptive. Delete them all. There's better sites with more content anyway.

Haven't voted since I'm not convinced one way or another but how about for the "what turns you on" sort of threads, ALL lewd images must be linked and described? The "hot guys/girls" threads tend to be quite tame, illustrated or real.
needs an option three "bring back oify, but still don't allow pedos"

When Fast Threads is gone, we can make those styles of threads bannable.
[QUOTE=Zyler;46265644]The main problem with these sorts of threads seems to be moderating them. This is because the “post your...“ nature of them leads people to post increasingly grotesque shit that they're not even necessairly attracted to because it's become some sort of competition. Why dont we go back to what we originally had with the “Dragon“ thread or whatever it was called. Just have had individual thread for each of these groups and thing's won't escalate. I think this would be the most fair solution particularly because even the furries might not like the fecal shit or necrophilia or whatever else gets posted in that “who has the worst fetish“ contest.[/QUOTE] Literally none of that gets posted there unless it's a troll account
Changed my ass to a no. Thought about it and while I don't see the harm in the thread as an idea, it's way too much of a mess with shit like that cub thing that didn't get taken care of for too long, and I definitely think the porn is clogging up fast threads too much in general. I still like the idea of compromise and it's own section thing more, but the reality is, as people pointed out, that that's not gonna happen unless against all expectation the mods decide for it to, and they have no reason to, so when it comes down to it I'd rather take no as a base answer. Thread in it's current form ain't acceptable.

I don't see why people dislike it, sure it's lewd and gross but it's not like you are forced to go into the threads "waaaah something yucky exists that I don't have to look at but I want it gone anyway!" ridiculous (no I don't go in those threads)

I find it hilarious that some of you think that the Facepunch forums have any kind of reputation :v:

Someone should make a movie based on this entire thread.
Well, including pornography as a permitted topic on Facepunch is just [I]weird[/I]. I'm not really uncomfortable with the crazy stuff people post. I either laugh or just don't care. (Although I think that a lot of what people post in those crazy threads are absolutely disgusting, but oh well.) My argument is that it straight up doesn't fit with the Facepunch ethos. Facepunch just isn't a place to share your overly fetishized porn just as it isn't a place to share your porn, period. We should be talking about games, arguing over sensationalist headlines, helping others with programming, and asking what your favorite color is. Forcing your porn inside of that list is weird just because it doesn't fit. I don't care about your porn. I don't care that you have porn, or weird interests when it comes to your porn. I just don't see why Facepunch has to be the place for it. We are open to a lot of interests but at some point you've gotta draw the line. Also, with the WTYO thread, what's the point of seeing what turns other people on? Who cares? Is this a discussion that needs to take place? Yes, I understand Fast Threads is full of stupid stuff, but there shouldn't be any hoopla over missing out on what turns your friends on.

[QUOTE=ultra_bright;46266842]If nobody care then the thread wouldn't exist, also 869 people would disagree with you.[/QUOTE] You mean 784, right? Voided votes and changed votes are deducted at the end of the 10 days.
Here's a rephrased question: why do you want to know what turns the people of Facepunch on, and why do you want to share it with them?
[QUOTE=ultra_bright;46266842]If nobody care then the thread wouldn't exist, also 869 people would disagree with you.[/QUOTE] Not an example of a good argument. We've been over this a fair few times so let's spell it out - the mods want nothing more to do with it, it's caused its fair share of problems, and not all the illegal shit can be weeded out even by a team of dedicated mods. Also there's a ton of folk in this thread putting up their names with 'can I be porn mod nao thx' just for the sake of doing so when all they want is a green name and a ban stick. Like wauterboi, I neither care that people have odd tastes nor do I mind such things on a personal basis - the problems here have started from both sides in the argument. The one is too condescending and the other too vocal and refusing to look at things from the others' point of view. Just understand that a lot of people no longer feel that we can accommodate this sort of thing on Facepunch anymore, and this includes the staff. I know it feels unfair and biased but such is life.
[QUOTE=wauterboi;46266825]We should be talking about games, arguing over sensationalist headlines, helping others with programming, and asking what your favorite color is. Forcing your porn inside of that list is weird just because it doesn't fit.[/QUOTE] There is a problem with that sense of arguing. You include 4 things where 2 are almost completely unrelated to the other 2, so technically they wouldn't fit. But since you included them in what you want us to be talking about, they seem to make sense together. It's a forced equivalent. If I say that we should be talking about games, crazy headlines, porn and helping people program, but forcing a question on what your favourite colour is just doesn't fit. It may seem like porn fits all of a sudden, but not the question on what your favourite colour is. Anyways, gotta say what I think about the subject: Sure, you may not like the thread. I don't even like everything in the thread. And I understand the reasoning behind not wanting the thread there, I just disagree. I think the thread is quite nice. I can search for porn all I want on the internet, but that's not why I go to wtyo. I go there because most there are swell guys with some fun comments that you can't find on any other place that involves this kind of pornography. Go to FA, and you get basement dwellers rping in the comments, and it's just a mess. I still stand by that the argument that FP would have some kind of positive reputation and the porn threads are ruining it is silly. FP have barely any reputation at all, and from what I've seen on maybe 2 sites that have mentioned FP, it's not been in a good manner, and that had nothing to do with the pornography.

[QUOTE=InvaderNouga;46266950]Your days of posting your sickening fetish are almost over, just give up and leave.[/QUOTE] And this bears any relevance to this discussion how? Try to post in a manner that doesn't make you sound so condescending please. If you have nothing else to add you may as well rate it dumb and move on.
