Suggestions So what's the plan for the NSFW subforum?

Let's face it; former owner Zoe's attempt to provide a space where we can all post milk-toast erotic content was a failure long before she "left", and now it's just sad. There has been a grand total of two works of erotic fiction posted (one in 2019, and another in 2020), one recruitment thread for an RP that never went anywhere, and a couple of image threads who's combined contents would barely fill half an issue of Playboy (setting aside that most of the images contained therein would have probably been rejected as submissions for simply being too tame). All in all, the only thing people use it for is that one thread where we complain about other forums.

I think we need to have a serious discussion as to what the NSFW subforum is even for; because as it stands, it's just being used as a place where we can hide interforum drama. Personally I think we either need to dramatically loosen restrictions on what content can be posted (basically emulating QQ), or abandon the conceit that the NSFW subforum is primarily for pornographic content altogether, and just say that it's for marginally more offensive content than what is appropriate to post elsewhere on the forum in general. Either may encourage more people to post there, though the latter would also probably require rebranding.

I could go for seeing more boobs, I guess. 🤷‍♂️ I tend to get my porn quota by hanging out at places that are specifically for it, though. If people want, I suppose I could post some of my old Trek pr0n, but I'd accomplish that by posting a link to my own site and there's only like two of them.

Is that a challenge?

If you want to see more pictures of boobs, I could always find images from the G7 summit.

Story matters

So does storytelling, and all of its mechanics. And I fail to see how story can actually redeem something that bad, it is like polishing a turd. Or putting a beautiful façade on a depilated structure, which as I have heard is what has happened in St. Petersburg.

If the story is good, things can change and even be hidden
