Continuing>>781843in the interests of repopulating the board.

However, tell me this: was this a sagefag flood or a modfag delete-fest? Because after the last sagefag flood, I had a good content thread deleted for no reason.

Anyhow, petgirls

What would be the difference between a "modfag delete-fest" and regular mod deletion activity? Is it when one of the deleted threads is yours?

between deleting content and deleting the sageman attacks/what have you.

Not that there's not a judgment call, sometimes.

Last time I checked, mods delete fuck all unless the thread in question has been reported.
Also, I thought western art was a ban on /d/?

The shitty art rule isn't enforced. I don't see why the western one needs to be either.
>> Anonymous
>>782182
Then let's not enforce any of the rules, since one isn't.

Fucknuts.

But i guess I'll stop posting this, though i dunno if its 'western' or not

This isn't to say I reported or find the thread objectionable.

Just pointing out the fallacy of the statement, "Oh if we don't follow this rule, then we don't have to follow this one."

Mods aren't infallible. And the no-western rule, as -I- have seen it, has always been to keep out, "TOONFUCK BARNY X WILMA X FRED FLINTSTONE EROTICA CARTOON XXX HARDCORE PORNO" shit. But that is what I saw it as. Who knows what the mods think.

The rules DO need an update. They need some greater clarification.

a style limitation seems dumb for a content-based board, imo

old argument which has stood the test of time: "the word 'hentai' is in the title"

4chan just needs a non-specific porn board. I'd email moot and request one if I wasn't so certain he'd just delete the message

(1), a slash generally means "or",
(2), "hentai" can mean any pornographic comic
(3), even if it was assumed from "hentai" that it means no western art, then why is it specifically enumerated in the rule for /h/, but not in the rule for /d/?
(4) what exactly is 'western' art - how do you define it? (drawn by a westerner, drawn in the style of a westerner... what if its an asian artist in the style of a westerner, not to mention what defines the 'western' style?)
(5) if its really banned, why should I rapidshare it?

Because posting half of the comic and leaving it at that is being a tremendous cocktease.

I can't answer your questions.

Despite the fact that moot clearly says, "FEEL FREE TO SEND ME QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS," and recently COMPLAINED about no one asking questions (a blatant lie, mind you,) your question will be, summarily ignored and deleted I'm afraid.

But go ahead and ask anyway. Maybe if enough people start asking he'll have to cave in to the sheer volume of questions all asking the same thing. Where is our rule clarification?

Do you walk into a museum and, knowing that the exhibition isn't permanent anyway, ask a curator to take down a piece and shoot the contributor simply because you don't like it?

Frequently. I've had to stop because most places won't let me in anymore.

Then again I saved the business of a couple of places because I convinced them to put up stuff that didn't look awful.

I'll have a go, not trying to attack you or anything, just answering it as 4chan works and filling in the gaps myself

1 - Fair enough and true, but we've also got Anime/Cute, but we can't post something Western there. We've also got Wallpaper/General, but we can't post something anime there. If the board was for "alternative" other than hentai it would probably be called "Hentai & Alternative"

2) I quote Wikipedia on this: "In the West the term is used as slang for pornographic comics _particularly Japanese_"

3) God knows, that's why we're so pissed off about it. westernartfags think they're allowed to post it and legally they are whereas easternartfags think they shouldn't because the mods delete it all the time

4) Western artists like Karbo and Kamitora are allowed because their art is japanese in style, those two are obvious examples of the rule being twisted. not sure about western-style done by an eastern artist, might try it sometime

5) See Fuckin'A's comment

Legality is one thing.

Legally I could post furry here. But that doesn't mean it wouldn't be against the rules.
>> Anonymous
>>782316
Perhaps I used the term "legally" generously then but I couldn't think of anything better to use. "technically" they can post it?
>> Anonymous
>>782309

(1) well idk about the culture of /c/, but /wg/ is non-anime because there's another board specifically for anime wallpapers.
(2) "particularly" very emphatically does not mean "only"
(3) well, exactly. but western (or arguably western) art is like 25-50% of the posts on here at any given time.

(5) well right, but *if* its not allowed, then why are you here for it? go to /r/, am i right?
>> Anonymous
you're also not allowed to post western in /e/, apparently, but that's never been so much of a problem for them because western art is posted like once a year there

>>782322
you're allowed to ask for rapidshares of things inside threads, regardless of whether or not the content of the stuff in the RS is banned. obviously however this doesn't mean you can post furry or guro RSes all over the shop for no reason, keep it relevant

also, thanks for keeping this civil, much rather /d/ stand for /d/iscussion than /d/rama

Here's the complete Tranceptor book, along with most of the artist's other stuff. If someone has Tranceptor 2 please post it (separate files if you must, preferably as a nice RAR or CBR).
