RE: CONTEST: "The Keyword of the Week" / WETTBEWERB: "Das Schlüsselwort der Woche"
Hello beautiful people,
I have an important question. I need to understand the boundaries of the nsfw tag.
Actually, what I need to know is if I write a story with a bit more descriptive scenes, that are relevant to the story, do I need to put a tag on it?
Mind you that I plan neither to write Henry Miller/ Anais Nin kind of stories nor Stephen King level horror, but there may be some steam and some gore (although I understand that beauty or offense lie in the reader's imagination).
I wouldn't want to break community standards.
How should I handle this?
Thanks,
Pedro
Hi Pedro, nice of you to ask... Personally, I have no problems with permissiveness. However, I can't rule out cultural sensitivities, nor the presence of underage readers. Explicit pornography that requires the #nsfw is not something we want to see or read here, please. However, purely literary, artistic descriptions enjoy my protection and are welcome.
I'm pretty sure I won't go into porn mode, so, we're safe. In any case, If I get really near the tipping point, do let me know, and I'll find a way to bring the tone down. It's just that iternet has become such a sensitive medium, you keep second guessing yourself. I don't really like to think about the publishibility of what I write, but, I am able to work within the community rules.
Thanks for the straight answer.
Cheers.
