People are recently posting picture posts and I think it's time we revisit our community rules just in case this is not what people want.

Would you change the rules for the c/asklemmynsfw community in any way and if so how?

Discuss and vote on potential changes.

I agree with all your comments especially in regard to politics. Even if it doesn't start out purely as left vs. right, you will have someone who just has the right answers for everyone condemn a post or a comment because it offends their political leanings. I never can understand these people. This is a meaningless social media platform no different than all the rest.... in a group that allows posters to ask sexual questions....yet some people just have to impose their opinions on everyone else.

    Thanks...

    I've moderated for a couple communities and private gameservers in the past. I've also seen arguments begin over perceived slights let alone political opinions devolve into chaos. It's made worse by the perceived anonymity and lack of recompense.

    A community needs clearly defined rules to allow discussions about sensitive topics so that a it can remain polite and foster communication that is of high quality information. This requires people to be polite and respectful... political opinion, so far in my experience, is anything but. Studies show that polite communication can enhance the perceived quality of information shared, making users more receptive to ideas and responses.

    This is the reason why I do my best to follow this ethos: https://lemmy.world/post/39694506
