Pornographic content in "😱nsfw-disturbing-stuff" channel on Discord
Posted: 04 May 2020, 13:12
Our official Discord Server rules forbid pornography:
It was created in order to have a place for news links containing deaths, or other stuff that might not be OK to post in general channels. It was supposed to also contain some soft nudity (like boobs, or a mad person running naked down the street).
Unfortunately, one member (which nickname I won't bring up here) decided to regularly "feed us" with pornographic content.
I personally always reacted with "WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU" messages, but other Discord users reacted with laugh, which I understood as acceptation of the content of this type. Therefore messages containing videos / images like this weren't deleted, and an user who posts them wasn't punished in any way. I respect the freedom of speech and never delete other users messages, but I understand that new people who join this Discord, and perhaps use it for the first time, might find it as something extremely unacceptable.
I'm a gentle person when it comes to moderating stuff, that's why I'd like to ask the Department of Justice to investigate this case, check messages and decide what should be done with such content in the future.

Some time ago, we created the "nsfw-disturbing-stuff" channel. Users are asked if they're 18+ years old before they can read and post messages in the channel.1. No Illegal Content
(it includes serious racist insults, pornography, pirated content or offensive messages reported by users)
