Just a quick question (uploaded video content)

Post by sepatooth » Tue May 06, 2003 11:56 am

It says for vids to be uploaded they can't contain sexual nudity. I have a vid I wanted to show but it does have nudity but it's just snapshots of the girl (like something from Playboy) and doesn't show any sex at all so does this count as sexual nudity or is it aloud? I just wanted to know so I don't accidently get banned for it:P

This would probably go in "Site Questions" or the Donut forum , and is something that would be better directly asked of Phade (as he has the final, and only I believe, say on this) over PM or email.

However, there's no stopping us from discussing it to death anyways :P If the shots are "Like something from Playboy" than I would say it would probably not be allowed- simply because pictures from Playboy would almost always be considered 'sexual nudity'. True, they don't actually show the act of sex, but it is nudity intended for sexual purposes- namely the arousal of the viewer. True, it can likely be argued that just about any nudity in anime could be intended for that purpose (though in some cases- I've seen Doki's "Right Now" too recently- it's one hell of a perverse stretch). However something like Ranma losing her shirt is discernably different than, say, (OK, I'm having a difficult time coming up with a good example, so shoot me) the nude photo shoot from Perfect Blue.

But in the end, it's up to Phade to decide- so you should contact him about it.

Phade wrote:Hey,

Though some may consider any nudity as sexual nudity, some example of non-sexual nudity for this site are anything you would find in the regular released episodes (not any of the "unofficial fan" releases, you know what I mean) of Ranma 1/2, Sailor-Moon-type transformation scenes, and the like. If the nudity is incodential and does not show or imply sex, then it should be ok. If the nudity shows or implys sex, then it is sexual nudity.

Basically what it boils down to is that I do not what this to become a distribution site for porn/hentai or a playground for crazy sick-os. The more we can stay away from that, the better, and the less likely that some "mothers against internet sex and violence" group will attempt to shut down the site. (This is especially true since there are a bunch of kids that come here.)

You can always ask me to review your video before uploading if you have any doubt.

I hope this clears things up better.

Phade.
That's the best description from the man himself. Maybe you should get Phade to see the video and have him make the judgement call?

okay well it kind of borders on that so I guess I just wont' show it. Basically the scene is this girl is killing the man who took nude snap shots of her and I flashed scenes of the photos inbetween her stabbing him. It's from Perfect Blue, so if anyone has seen it you'll know what I mean. If you're still curious to see it I can send it over aim or something. BlankTarget00 is my aim name.

Incidentally, when AX finally decided that the El Hazard hand-down-the-pants scene was too much for them (oh no, "sexual touch!"), Ranma losing her shirt was one of the scenes suggested as a replacement. One of the rationales given was that Ranma is more well known, and more people would be familiar with the scene and its context.

Hmmm. Interesting trivia item. :) I haven't really decided what I think about contests not allowing content like that... I hate to see the creative process restricted, but I also don't think I want to see cons have to start checking IDs for the AMV contest. Damn repressive puritanical morals... :roll:
