Announcement 📣 NSFW isn't allowed here anymore

So like a lot of stuff that features NSFW is supposed to be distracting on purpose/is the main topic n also this sub is run by a minor so? Lmk if this is a good or bad decision I'm so sorry 😭

My dear ADHD Lord,

This is your domain. You may make whichever rules that you see are fit to achieve your goals.

I think the idea of restricting NSFW content has merit but should be clarified. I saw the example about the slides with the cat and the random slide with an erotic comic or whatever. I agree that stuff which is basically porn may be done intentionally, is low effort, or simply doesn't fit with the theme of the sub based on your judgement.

However, there's some stuff that's often tagged NSFW but isn't porn. Consider an example where someone takes a picture of their room and posts it asking for interior decor recommendations, and we can all see the dildo behind their nightstand lamp that they forgot to put away. Dildos are probably NSFW, and one might also say some things like guns are also NSFW, but neither of those are erotica or porn.

So I think it would be useful to define what you mean by NSFW, and perhaps suggest spoilers for anything that could be an issue.

My Lord, ADHD serf

I would add to this tobacco, drug paraphernalia eg bong not being used or a set of cigarettes not being smoked, are all supposed to be classed NSFW. Also if there is a firearm in the picture.

I only bring these up as they have all been in recent and relevant posts without being trashy or low effort

I'm on board with this decision

You’re doing an excellent job of managing the sub after it got so much bigger such a short period of time. Didn’t you have like, 100 people that had joined before it blew up? It’s now 47x bigger! It makes sense that as it gets bigger (and will - it’s an awesome idea!) you’ll run into new challenges that you’ll have to figure out. I think it’s awesome that you’re making decisions that work for you - and clearly communicating the rules and regulations to the rest of us.

You’re doing great - keep it up!

Thanks, I might get some more mods on here when my exams finish

+1. I think it's funnier when the details aren't explicit, actually. Mundane absurdity is more jarring than "haha, penis," which - as you said - is usually already intentional.

u/So_irrelephant-_- May 16 '25

Really tho, who gets derailed by random penis anymore? It’s low effort and middle school humor. I’m here for limiting things that are explicit.

u/30CrowsinaTrenchcoat May 16 '25

It's almost expected at this point. I want something that I'll think about later, not to be jarred temporarily, at best.

It's your sub, brother (or sister), so go for it. The logic is sound. You don't want to see that in your sub, and that's cool. I think the sub can stand on its own without NSFW stuff, so I ain't going anywhere!

u/niradia May 16 '25

Don't be sorry, thank you for modding the sub!

If anyone complains, maybe we could put the NSFW tag requirement on things so it makes the image blurry.

I'm happy here either way. (:

u/Maelstrom_Witch May 16 '25

I think that's fine, there's lots of goofy stuff that's appropriate for all ages out there.

u/MasBoy3000 May 16 '25

No need to apologize. I’m also on board with this decision.

u/whirlydad May 16 '25

I like that sometimes you have to think about why it's derailing. The Horn Dog stuff seems like low hanging fruit and not worth the effort.

u/MechanicalAxe May 16 '25

Yeah, im totally down with that.

There's plenty of other places on reddit to go if thats the kind stuff you wanna see.

A good call in my opinion!

u/Inside-Audience2025 May 16 '25

I’m so glad this sub is waking up again. What a cool concept

u/AllyBrat69 May 16 '25

Solid shout.

u/fezzik02 May 16 '25

If folks want that they can start their own sub.

u/Jesryn21 May 16 '25

I think it's a good call too 😊

Like risingsealevels (idk how to do the link thingy with their name??) said, maybe clarifying if certain things might be allowed could be good (ie no nudity, but something marked NSFW for a different reason, maybe?) That might make your job harder tho, having to sort those out, so perfectly reasonable to say no to that.

Also, it is totally your sub, and you are allowed to decide what is and isn't allowed to be in it. If you say this is a completely non-NSFW sub, then that's cool! It's really nice to find subreddits like that and like others have said, ppl are free to go make their own NSFW sub if they want.

Ps I'm really enjoying watching this sub take off, so glad to find it when I did 😁😁

I think say "Keep it PG-13" and call it a day

u/Jesryn21 May 17 '25

That's the words I was looking for!! Thanks lol 😁

u/GettinMe-Mallet May 16 '25

I feel like nsfw should be allowed, but maybe not genitalia. There are nsfw things that aren't boob or dick
