Thanks for the clarification Ginger.
All I really want from this site is that it’s a place people enjoy visiting and contributing to. When we start applying censorship or harsh critiques it can sway the balance away from the enjoyment of expressing ourselves.
As Jenna says, if she doesn’t enjoy visiting the site then, as much as it would be a shame, she shouldn’t visit. However as there’s no imperative to read everything submitted to the site, that’s where I find the criticism hard to understand.
This is a collective of work, some good, some bad. There is an “unwritten” line that, if crossed will get a story taken down and I’ve been the arbiter of that but obviously as the sheer volume of stories has increased I need to ask the community to help flag stuff which is inappropriate.
Perhaps there’s scope for a “premium” version of the site where there are strict rules, guidelines, moderation and authorship is by invite only but this site as it stands is for the masses with all the positives and negatives that brings with it.
