Insanejournal policies on adult material

I just came across this link on acceptable content while surfing, and thought I'd share in case there are others who are clueless like me. I've checked the old posts and didn't see it posted before, so apologies if I've missed the post.

In a nutshell, the FAQ (written in 2003, for the record), basically state that journals should be decent (by the Miller Test). They do, however, seem to imply that explicit material should be kept under friends lock on non-adult communities and journals. Icons should also be free of explicit material.

In the event where journals or communities are largely adult in nature, a warning should be placed in profile pages. While not stated explicitly, I'd imagine this standard applies even to fiction, because there's no statement to the contrary. It's more to protect both InsaneJournal and yourself, I should think. (In the least, that's what the FAQ says).

o la!

Hey guys! We made fandom_wank! Or at least, Vassilissa did. Oh, I am so amused, so very amused.

"As the ripples from the Great LJ Strikeout of 2007 continues, unh, lapping at the shores of fandom, a number of fandom folks have started looking for alternatives and setting up accounts (or at least cybersquatting their names) on those journaling sites...."
