Because this isn't a board for Western porn, it's for HENTAI. You know, the JAPANESE word?

I love how fags cry "WESTERN ART IS ALLOWED IT WON'T GET YOU BANNED" but they don't have any proof.

From dictionary.com:

Main Entry: hentai
Part of Speech: n
Definition: sexually explicit animation or comics

And guess what? American "hentai" is called hentai in Japan. Weird, isn't it? Or maybe not...since all hentai means is perverted.

Sort of like how anime just means animation. The more you know!

Oh, and calling someone a fag tends to backfire, since it reveals you're one too.

A rule that isn't in the rules isn't a rule. Hence the whole CONCEPT of a rules page.

If they want to make it a rule, all they have to do is add it to that page. Notice they haven't. Haven't you ever stopped to wonder WHY such a rule has never been added? I mean, if it really is a rule, it would be there, that's just common sense, isn't it?
>> Anonymous
>>696105

Actually, it wouldn't be called "hentai", very little is actually called that in Japan. It's a strong word, meaning "perverted" in the strongest sense of the term. Most erotic art would just be called "H" or "ero".

>Haven't you ever stopped to wonder WHY such a rule has never been added?
Because the mods don't need to point out such an obvious rule? /h/, another HENTAI board, specifically bans Western art. Oh, but that's right - mods keep having to point out that requests belong in /r/, so clearly if they put the rule in the rules noone would read it anyway!

But I guess it doesn't really matter as we all know you're a troll. You KNOW it's going to get you banned, you're doing this for shits and giggles like all trolls do, deliberately trying to piss off /d/enizens and cause a sagestorm. Well, you're getting one.
If you were a newfag I would forgive you despite Internet Rule No5. But clearly anybody who has been on /d/ for longer than a week knows it's banned (and they also know what Rule 5 is.)
>> Anonymous

Yes, there should be in the rules an update that says no Western art is allowed. But even if there isn't, the fact that people are posting proof of bans and mods saying no Western art, that should be enough to shut people the hell up. Bitch at the mods and e-mail moot, not us, because users don't make 4chan's rules. And the OP is just a troll to make this whole shitstorm happen.
>> Anonymous
>>696110
There already is a rule for no shitty art. I've found myself reporting Japanese art for being shittily drawn (mostly scribbles like the OP) before. But in light of the shitty and Western rule, you can do only two things, both of which are completely fruitless unless you keep trying.
1 - Actually tell the mods. This is pointless because mods like ignoring specific people.
2 - Tell Moot that the mods for /d/ are faggots. This is pointless as Moot likes ignoring all of 4chan, except for /po/.
>> Anonymous
>>696111

You contradict yourself at the end. You say you could forgive me if I were a newfag, then say anyone who has been around knows this nonexistent rule. So which am I? A newfag, or someone who has been around?

Beyond that, you're failing to use common sense. The global rules go for every board. Board specific rules go for the board they belong to. Then there's the board rules that tend to carry over, like /r saying its for requests, and by extension requests go in /r. But there's nothing that says "Western art goes here" beyond /b, and everyone knows the rules for /b tend to be for that board. Now, you mention /h specifically doesn't allow western art. Huh, odd that they mention it for that board, but /d doesn't have that rule. Probably because it is allowed there except for one overzealous mod thinking it wasn't.

If we go by your logic that, because /h doesn't allow it then /d doesn't either, then rule 2 from /h should be enforced but isn't.

And so far we can't do anything about that. Trust me, I want the no-Western art rule put onto the rules page as much as anyone else.

>then rule 2 from /h should be enforced but isn't.
Now you're just talking bull. It should be fairly obvious that Rule 2 is just the non-loli rule made more specific. Post girls in /h/ with a flat chest, tiny legs and a tiny head and you're clearly going to get banned.

>>696120>niggers
Oho, come on now. Racism is banned outside of /b/, and that's a rule we CAN prove.

It leads me to a different point: How come I never see Western art in /c/, /cm/, /e/, /h/, /u/ and /y/, but somehow people think that it's fine here?
>> Anonymous

Nice try, but /co specifically says this:

1. Images and discussion should pertain to media of Western origin.

Which, using the rational for /r, says that western comic stuff goes in /co. It has no relation to the topic at hand.

>>696125

Hey, you figured it out! I mean, I WAS quite obvious, you know, talking like I knew what was going on in their head and all. In fact, I dub you Captain Obvious for figuring out a post by me, the OP, was in fact a post by me, the OP :P

See "idiots trying to enforce a nonexistent rule" for that. You even QUOTED it and missed the point.

>>696128

You are the first to catch on to the undercurrent of my comments, something everyone else has ignored. If this "rule" is meant to exist, all I want is for it to be listed on the rules page. That's it. All someone has to do to stop this is to put the rule THERE. But despite the thousands of shitstorms, it's never happened. Yes, I think it's stupid that people post screenshots of someone getting banned for an arbitrary reason. Hence my reasons for doing this. But my reasons are ALSO to force the rule to be put in place if it's meant to actually exist.

Won't stop me from doing this again at a later date if needbe. Once again, if it's a rule put it in the rules. Otherwise it's not a rule.

Let's try an example:

You're driving along at in your car, and a cop stops you and gives you a ticket for driving a RED car. He decided that there's a rule/law against red cars, and you have to suffer for it! There's no actual rule/law saying it on the books(rules page), but DAMNED if you won't pay anyway.

Does that seem fair?

/d/ Rules:

1. "Alternative" images including: futanari, bondage, tentacles, etc. are welcome. Caveats below.

2. Images depicting bestiality, guro, or generally seen to be "extreme" in nature are not to be uploaded.

and how can you even properly tell western art from non-western art? Is there only one style of non-western art? Is art drawn by non-westerners in the western style considered western or non-western? What about art that isn't japanese, but isn't "western" either? And what about art drawn in the japanese style by a westerner?

And regarding the word hentai; if you were in japan, reading a dirty western comic, would it not be referred to as a hentai?

Yeah, because all the self righteous assholes who post a screenshot of someone being banned for western art isn't as bad, right? At least one of us is trying to get the goddamn "rule" put where rules go. And yes, most of the posts are saying it's a bad thing to point out that there is currently no such "rule", and if there is one it should be on the rules page. Instead of arguing, they COULD have been helping try and get that changed by seeing the point that was being made, but the anti-trolls and assholes saw another shitstorm they could start.

People, people! Come on! This is /d/. If anything, /d/ is the odd board out. This is the "et cetera" board of the non-worksafe boards. /d/ isn't about any specific style (though I suppose the /d/ standing for dickgirl does demonstrate a primary purpose), it is about crazy-ass content.

It doesn't matter if you're white, or black, or sasquatch even. You can still draw completely insane fucked-up sexy art that psychiatrists couldn't honestly look over in making a psychological assessment! And isn't that what really matters?

Well, I'll help you if you'll help me. First off, I was pointing out stupidity of saying some mythical rule exists with nothing in the rules supporting that claim. You can help by showing, in the global and /d rules, where such a rule is.

Secondly, emailing the ones in charge doesn't help. Talking in text threads doesn't help. That leaves trying to make a difference here, through protest. And if you think protests don't make a difference, you need to brush up on your history.

And finally, it's nice to see I was correct about putting you firmly in the class of anti-trolls who call people "faggot" and "retard". You can help me by growing up and leaving behind comments like that.

Also, please explain how I'm acting like I'm gay, or retarded. I'm quite curious as to your reasoning, because neither of those situations applies to this text-based commentary, and its sad if you think it DOES.

No, it's a quite different situation. I'm not protesting to get content added or removed. I'm protesting to get the rule listed on the rules page. That's all I ever wanted. Well, that and people to quit posting that stupid screenshot of a ban for western art and claiming that's a rule.

My problem is that people are claiming the existence of something that isn't supported on the easily found rules page, and I just want that changed. They all decided I'm crusading for western pictures being ALLOWED, when I consistently was pointing out that there is no rule AGAINST it, and if there should be one it needs to be added. Furry pics are quite clearly not allowed, the rules say so.

Basically, it was a bunch of people deciding they knew what was going on and jumping down my throat. Which, I admit, I was trying for, because it highlighted the few who actually got the underlying point.
