Media Handling of content that doesn't meet adult content guidelines

[ObamaBebop]

I personally didn't have any issues with it yet but there are some shots that might be considered "NSFW" that i really want to post on nexus. I rly don't understand how it it possible for mod previews to be nsfw and not get taken down, however posting a NSFW image is? Kinda icky abt that decision in all honesty. Just two days ago a skyrim modder i follow posted a prevoew image of an armor where you can fully see the exposed breasts of a char..

It'd also be cool to kinda see what is NSFW and what isn't, as some shots that show nothing adult get taken down

People get banned for posting adult images where they're not allowed, not just for posting them.  More specifically, they usually get banned for reposting them or repeatedly posting similar images while ignoring moderator warnings.

I really don't understand how "No NSFW images in the regular imageshare" is difficult for people.

Some people may not understand. Some understand, but some of them don't care if there is no decent alternative space for them. They will break rules if this is the only way to post their artworks.

And this reply of yours is missing the point. This thread is about acknowledging need from community and creating a decent space for questionable and NSFW artworks, just like many other pages have.

Honestly, I don't care about NexusMods as a platform. Why would I? Let staff run this page as they want. Technically there are better platforms for virtual photography. But as far as I know, only here people have built up a community where creators who post their work can expect some heartfelt comments that multiplied over time can turn into friendships. And I want to keep those people together, nobody left behind. It's the only reason why I have created this thread.

TL;DR 向下滚动到粗体部分。

-------------------------

各位 NexusMods 的版主和工作人员，大家好，

在我最近一次被禁赛（这是你们的意外）之后，我承诺我会说出来 - 所以在这里我履行了我的承诺。

我想先从最严重的问题开始，而不是让论坛充斥着其他（仍然严重的）问题。我尽量简洁地总结一下这个问题，尽管我愿意用例子来支持我的观点。如果可以的话，我会在以后的讨论中添加它们。

请注意，下面提到的任何内容都不是指责您的某种态度或意图，而是表明它对社区产生了影响，无论您的意图如何，它都是如此。

大家好，

请参与进来。我看到有人抱怨，说事情必须改变。但事情怎么改变呢？你来这里是为了寻求改变。如果你保持沉默，就说明你对这里的一切都很满意。

阅读，说出您的想法，告诉他们所提到的任何问题是否对您有直接影响，支持或批评想法，添加您自己的想法。

问题：

“支持者”区域的当前形状以及对不符合成人内容指南的内容的处理（尤其是那些与标准相差甚远的内容）

• 部分社区对现状不满，
• 用户流失——人们离开网站或默默退出，
• 由于用户试图潜入常规图像区域而进行不必要的审核工作，
• 支持者区域是一个非常没有吸引力的地方，照片、支持和评论的数量都很少。
  • 它甚至不是“支持者”区域，它的名字暗示着某种专属的东西，但实际上它是NSFW区域，人比普通区域少，
  • 我看到一些用户在将内容移出常规图像区域后将其从那里删除，
  • 当移至支持者区域时，图像不可用（有关新图像的通知仍然指向已删除的图像，有关评论的通知通常不会到达）。
• 常规图像区域的调节并不完全有效。

-------------------------

我的职位是高级软件工程师，同时在架构方面也有经验。所以我想到可以把工作分成几个小部分，这样可以逐步改善现状。

解决方案：

阶段#1:（很简单，可能只是规则 wiki 更改）

• 允许在常规图像区域中使用现有的成人标签，以表示内容不是明确且明确的 NSFW，但也不是 SFW（符合成人内容指南）
  • 解决方案已经存在，但它仅用于血腥和亵渎，任何超出指南允许的色情内容在该区域都是严格禁止的，即使在该标签下也是如此。

阶段#1.5 ：（可能与阶段#1一样简单，但可能需要进入部署周期的小改动）

• 向会员开放现有的成人图片区域（正式的“支持者”区域），使所有设置了“显示成人内容”选项的人都可以访问。

第二阶段：（更加复杂，需要稍后完成，希望可以进一步拆分，但这已经是 NexusMods 开发人员的工作了，需要访问代码才能做出合理的规划）

• 引入3 个级别的内容标记：SFW（当前常规区域指南）、可疑（不是 SFW，但只是暗示性、揭露性，也不是完全 NSFW）、NSFW，
• 退役支持者区域，
• 将图像从支持者区域迁移到常规区域作为 NSFW，
• 统一区域将修复移动的图像显示为已删除以及评论通知未显示的问题。

 

问候，

代码。

Title: Fully Support These Changes - I've Been Affected Too!

I 100% agree with OP's points! NexusMods' current moderation standards are seriously problematic.

My personal experience:

• The image I uploaded didn't contain any nudity—just slightly sexy armor/clothing designs

• Got forcibly removed + received a staff warning

This "guilty until proven innocent" approach:

1. Kills creative motivation – Now I'm afraid to share anything even slightly suggestive

2. Wastes everyone's time – Staff wastes effort on false positives, users stress over random bans

3. Turns the Supporters section into a creator graveyard – Moved content might as well be deleted

"I don't want to follow the site rules" is not an excuse.   Ever.

And there is a place to post NSFW art.  It's the Supporter section.  If that's not good enough for you then DON'T post your artwork.

The number of people who have access to the Supporter section is huge.  If it's not that active it's not due to a lack of people that can access it.

No need to get angry

You show very lawful attitude. Ready to follow the rules. But some people understand that rules, like other things created by people, can have flaws, room for improvement and may require change.

NexusMods have different approach than yours, fortunately. They want to listen to community and improve. Presence of this feedback section shows it.

And you forgot to address "questionable" category that I mentioned in the part of my message you replied to - and this is most important one, because this is the type of content getting most trouble with current rules and shape of the website.

Source, please. What is the distribution between Members, Supporters and Premium users?

I guess you are trying to say that any content that is not SFW matching adult content guidelines is not attractive enough? 

My observation is that same photos that were receiving significant positive attention and feedback in regular images area, get a small fraction of previous endorses and comments, despite being published for a longer period of time than before the move.

Also I don't see that questionable or NSFW photos have worse ratings here: https://bsky.app/hashtag/Cyberpunk2077Photomode

Actually, top NSFW post I found has 125 upvotes there, much more than anything else.

I have never been banned, but I have had two  photos removed in the past. I have seen others under moderation and some even banned, which until recently I did not know they could or would do.

Maybe the guide lines could be clearer or more consistent, adult content is a touchy subject , some people can take offence to the smallest infraction of a sexual nature, yet accept the violence.

It is just a game after all, if they do not like aspects of it don't play it if they find a photo or video offensive don't look at it. I wish it could be that simple

Yes, so this additional level of classification would be very useful for various groups of people.

 

I guess I might not share this idea, but for R rated, 18+ games like Cyberpunk (and other games that happen to develop a lot of adult mods and photos) there could be different approach.

Such slider:

SFW <====== O =====> NSFW
      QUESTIONABLE

Its purpose: for such games content should be questionable by default and users, instead of being asked to optionally mark content as questionable or NSFW, they would actually make conscious action to mark content as SFW, declaring clearly that it is applicable to all audiences. People tend to put more weight to actions than to passiveness, so they would give it much more thought before marking content SFW.

And technically it doesn't have to be a slider if that would be too much work, it can be a bunch of radio buttons:

SFW   Questionable  NSFW
