I was the one who made the call on the shock image.

As it’s been pointed out, a lot of images are in a grey area. I think almost everyone would agree that goatse is a shock image and needs to be linked for “mind safeness.”

When Mc Banhammer showed me the saddam one my gut feeling was like, this is a shock image. Mainly because you could see his nasty balls hanging and the saddam thing was popping in and out. In retrospect it wasn’t worth the long ban so I removed it from Nicco.

Sometimes we make calls that are too lenient, other times we make them that are too restrictive. It’s just a temp ban, generally and can be appealed quickly.

If you’re not sure if an image is shock or suspect it is, ask a mod first for approval.

As for the lynching picture, I banned DLB for it just now.
