Delete pornographic images on Bible Black page.

I know that the website allows for nudity as long as it's in-game nudity, but the fact that there is no age barrier for accessing the page is kind of ridiculous. I could understand if it's something with game art in the background or environment, but these are deepy sexual depictions of women and men doing things that it's illegal for people to see without some sort of superficial "over 18" crap up there. It's not a good idea to leave it unchecked. Only around half of the stuff needs to be deleted, I would think.

no

NO

drawings are not illegal

A warning would be good, but I hope they do not introduce age gates around GiantBomb. Age gates are so stupid, anyone can put in a birthdate and say they are over 18 even if they really aren't. So yeah, a warning would be nice for pages like that.

You're killing me here.

Well, instead of deleting them, they should just add a an age barrier. Problem fixed.

And where is the age barrier in the meantime? Nowhere. The images can be reuploaded once that's there; but having uncensored pornography (and yes, it is considered that) like that is ridiculous."

I just noticed that, it's pretty graphic, i didn't think GB would allow it but apparently it's against the rules :S. I wouldn't like an age barrier, deleting the images would be just fine.

I would just put some disclaimer on the home page "Some games may have adult material, viewer discretion is advised" If the kid is old enough to click there all by himself, he's old enough to read and understand that message. I don't like age gate things because I don't want to have to type in my age when I log in.

"site still in beta, im pretty sure a age gate will come.
I already labelled the game adult so once the age gate is up (if it comes) this page will be gated"

The age gates would really only exist in order to be legal."

You do realise the age gates will only be a formality, right?"

If you're that desperate to have it there, save it and do whatever you want with it that way. Why do you care so much? The stuff there goes way over the line of decency."

"Then dont go there, it labelled as ADULT, that is what ADULT is."

How about a "flag inappropriate" thing like the one on YouTube? Users can flag pornographic pages as inappropriate, and then to view those certain pages, users would have to confirm their age.

Yeah, and that's why I think it should be a last resort thing, and delete the images instead."

That's just plain stupid. "Let's hide it away and hope nobody ever finds it""

"Its a porn game for Christ sake what do you expect?"

I have referred people, including minors, to this website for videogame information.

Quick reminder, they are:
1- game-related screenshots.
2- Fucking cartoons.

Why all the fuss? Maybe it's because I don't have kids yet, but seriously, it's not like the internet doesn't have this kind of stuff by the millions.

And they're getting information about video games. Including adult ones. There's nudity in encyclopedias and national geographics too. No no, kids, you can't read those!"

Exactly.  Let people look at that shit on the internet.  Let them do a search for it.  I know on several occasions, somebody has made a post in the forum section of a particular one of these games, and I went to hit the Forums button at the top of the home page and there it was, an easy link to that crap for all to see.  This community does not need shit like this; the one percent of gamers that are into this kind of crap can go pollute other websites; I come to this community to talk about games, not to see this kind of crap."

If there *is* anything sexual, it's for posterity and completeness's sake.

And you don't see the people I'm talking about shielding going to encyclopedias for that stuff.

"Jayge said:

So are these. They're in-game screenshots. It's not fapping material. You could use it for that, sure, but that's not what they're here for. You could use national geographic for that if you wanted, too..

And you don't see the people I'm talking about shielding going to encyclopedias for that stuff.

So they're going elsewhere for their smut?

"The way round this would to have the user mark the images as adult when uploading. These images would then not be displayed to any guests, nor to anyone under 18 registered on the site. It would check the date of birth from your GB profile which would not be editable. If you are over 18, you can tick a box in your profile confirming whether or not you want to see adult images. If you tick no, when visiting these game pages it'll just show no images in the gallery.

This kind of stuff can be found by a click of the mouse from Google. If you are really concerned  for the time being, you can get free or purchasable parental controls for your computer."

"Its not society's job to guide the moral compass of your little brother. It's mom, dad, and big brother's job. You can't just delete shit that offends little brother cus you're too lazy or busy to bother supervising him yourself."

BUT I LIKE CARTOON BOOBZ

Yeah, some sort of age flagging system would be great.

It's not only my little brother, it's any kid his age. What if they come here looking for info on a game and they find that?"

Right. Parental supervision only goes so far. Nobody expects porn on a video game information site. Especially without any sort of warning whatsoever."

Are you seriously going to sit there and tell me that these games weren't created entirely for fapping material? Bullshit.

"Jayge said:

It doesn't matter. This websites purpose is to catalogue games, and game related material. If adult content happens to fall into it, so be it. Censorship is not the route to take."

Don't backtrack. The adult content can easily be represented through text, and does not need obscene graphic images accompanying it.

"Jayge said:

I'm not backtracking. Whether it was created for that or not is irrelevant. The fact is, it's part of a game, and should be displayed here. If you want to take the stance of representing things through text, then I suggest we take down all images, and do the same for all games."

Woooh here. I know what BibleBlack is, and I can guarantee we don't what any pictures from it on GiantBomb. (Unless Jeff has a secret fetish for devil worshiping transvestites).

Choose to follow evil or to fight it in this Japanese "eroge"--or erotic game. This game eventually was adopted to a hentai--or pornographic anime."
