It appears to be a reference to the villagers in Age of Empires 2.

so you're poking at how they don't seem to give much importance to censoring?

You're joking right?


Not at all. I know there is a mature content filter with DA, so technically linking to it is the same thing as linking to a pornographic website, isn't it?

But it's art my friend. It's art. Nudity is one of the strongest forms of self expression, and it doesn't always have to be viewed as pornography.

Just because it doesn't have to be viewed as such doesn't mean that it won't be viewed as such.

People could have a fetish for stick figures and murder, and may jack off to the animations on stick page. Doesn't mean we should label our site as a porn site.

The majority of content on DA is non-pornographic. Also, last time I checked you needed to say you were over 18 to view the explicit content. I'd say links to DA are fine unless you're linking directly to a pornographic image.

I'm not saying I disagree with you, but from what I've seen, the definition of "pornography" is based on the view of the majority, and around here that seems to amount to "something naked."

The rule is for "inappropriate material", which includes pornography but isn't limited to it. Deviant Art is kind of like Google in the sense that you can use it to find porn, but the majority of the time it's used to link to appropriate content instead. It would be inappropriate if someone linked to a Deviant Art showcase containing adult content, similar to how Solister was linking to google searches for similar content with the expressed intent of skirting around an established rule.
