TotallyOz Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 We have to clean up the site for many reasons but all nudes must go in the the Photo Forum. It is now only visible to those with 10 or more posts. The admins are going to move other threads in this section that have porn to that area. My apologies to those this offends. Quote
Guest Larstrup Posted May 28, 2018 Posted May 28, 2018 sounds like a reasonable policy/request during these unprecedented times. Quote

Members torogen Posted May 28, 2018 Members Posted May 28, 2018 So, just to be clear, any photos with any nudity at all (not just explicit action/porn shots) are now specifically disallowed in a general section, such as the Latin American Men and Destinations area? I had posted some nudes in a report I did there. Maybe it would be better to edit the report, so the thread stays in the relevant section? That would of course mean that people would need the ability to (at least temporarily) edit older posts. I for one would be happy to edit the photos to remove the nudity. It's not like I've posted a ton of nudes. And maybe a statement of the rules would be warranted at this point...if it exists, I can't find it. I may have read or accepted some rules way back when I first created this account, but if I did, I honestly can't remember them. From the forum area, I see nothing. If I go to the main site, I see a link to a "Help & Info" page that states: " Chats and posts of a sexually explicit nature are not only tolerated – they are encouraged. We want you to get down and dirty." Maybe something like that, but updated with current rules, and linked in the header and/or footer of the forums would be helpful. sluttino 1 Quote

But perhaps a clearer statement about that is in order. Quote

The title of the thread says porn, but the post says: 2 hours ago, TotallyOz said: all nudes must go in the the Photo Forum. I agree that some clarification would be helpful. Quote

TotallyOz Posted May 28, 2018 Author Posted May 28, 2018 New rules are being rewritten. We had them years back but did not enforce things well. My fault. This section was meant to be fun and not porn. The porn section was meant to be porn. For now, just be careful not to post nudity in other sections. We do have clubs that allow for private clubs with unlimited nudity. A good option. Most posts will not be moved and some will be edited if there is content based information in them. It is not an easy task to remove things but it will start to happen with all new posts that have fully public forums. However, we can always make particular forums for participating members only. For example, the Porn Photos forum is invisible until a member reaches 10 posts. We could easily do that for other forums and keep the nudity most places. However, I do not see this as being a major issue and am flexible on older threads. I may even be able to let all members see threads but limit some to active members. The admins are researching all options. torogen and lookin 2 Quote

I've been in lust with Sean Cody model Luke from years gone by this past week. I just had to play with his cock and balls. The soaring heat in NYC made me do it. If you want to see my talent playing with a hot guy's cock and balls, you only need 10 posts. A simple, "Hi, how's it hangin'?" ten times will do. Quote
Members Lucky Posted July 4, 2018 Members Posted July 4, 2018 I read somewhere that boytoy.com wouldn't be subject to new rules on internet prostitution, etc. since it is not a US based company. Wrong? Otherwise, why the changes? I do note that Oz says the change is necessary for multiple reasons. But what difference does it make legally if nudes are in one forum or all forums? Either nudes are not allowed or they are. It would seem to be site-specific, not forum related. Just asking. Quote

TotallyOz Posted July 4, 2018 Author Posted July 4, 2018 If you look at the main part of the site, there are no nudes there either. The system now requires G rated images be main profile pics. Some xxx images linger but are removed when found. The site will not have any xxx images on it that non-logged in members can see. Eventually, I think the admins hope to have an app for the site as well. This was just the first stage and more to come in the future. However, notice images and forums are not deleted. They are only moved to places that are not accessible to all audiences. Take a look at GayRomeo's site. You find no XXX images there either. But, members can share private XXX images with others.

So to be clear, xxx images are ones that show lower exposed genitals, or pics of sexual activity like fucking , oral and water sports or fisting ? A shirtless guy is still OK ???? What about 2 shirtless guys caressing each other with NO exposed genitals???? Want to get this shit Right ! Quote

Members Lucky Posted July 5, 2018 Members Posted July 5, 2018 Oz, thanks for the reply. I now see that you are trying to keep anything resembling porn to a forum where only members can see it, thus preventing casual surfers from viewing it. I don't know why I didn't pick up on this earlier, but better late than never. Quote

By the way, boytoy is no longer blocked from wifi aboard aircraft. On my flight to Brazil the other day, I tried again to access this forum. In prior times, I always got a message saying the site was blocked due to content, or words to that effect. The connection went right through without a hitch. If anyone cares, while on long deadly dull flights, you can now access this forum. Progress - what would we do without it? TotallyOz 1 Quote
