CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

With the gallery system, the ongoing art contest and the increasingly popular bishoujo/bishounen picture threads, it has come to the staff's attention that some outlines for what is and is not acceptable to post as pictures need to be laid down. We are doing this for a number of reasons: to more perfectly serve the Lord, to set the bar for our community high, to be a good example to the outside world, and to protect the little eyes we have here. Paul commands us not to be stumbling blocks, and in the anime world that could easily apply to what we allow to be posted. Therefore:

- No nudity, period.
- If it a bikini/men's trunks cover it, it must be covered.
- This is a little harder to judge, but nothing excessively clingy or detailed.
- No clothes slipping off--bra straps, spaghetti straps, etc.
- No undergarments. No, swimsuits don't count for this rule.
- No openly suggestive or seductive poses.
- No overly-endowed women as far as it can be helped.
- If you're posting a pic of your favorite bishie, make sure his pants are zipped/buttoned.
- For pics of couples, their hands should not be found anywhere inappropriate.
- Speaking of couples, absolutely NO pictures promoting homosexual couples.

Now I realize these rules are a bit stringent for an anime board--after all, there are characters designed with less-than-conservative outfits, and that's ok, and we'll try to allow some leeway. If you have any questions or are unsure if your picture is ok to be posted, please PM a mod or an admin. We'll be happy to answer your questions and would appriciate the consideration.

If you post a picture in violation of these rules, you will be awarded a strike and/or other consequences.
Thank you for your attention everyone.

definitely reasonable.

Yep. Sounds good. You might want to add certain gestures to the list; I know that's pretty much understood, but while you're laying down the rules, it might be good to include.

I pretty much agree with these rules. It wouln't be good to show explict artwork. Artwork posted here is to sooth the soul. There is something that I am unsure about. That would be homosexuality. I don't think its a bad thing,but yet it wouln't be very soothing to see something like that here. I don't think I want to see homosexuality here because it frightens me a bit but I don't think its wrong. I dunno. I'm a naive 16 year old girl and some of this stuff in society is really confusing . I wish it could get out of my head .

Ja ne!

Well homosexuality is 100% against the Bible; the Bible specifically says that homosexuality is wrong: "a man shall not sleep with a man as a man sleeps with a woman." So Alexandra-chan, homosexuality is a bad thing.

However, "yaoi" pics can be hard to decide, but if it looks romantic, and it's two people of the same gender, it's yaoi...that should clear some things up. ^_^
