A Note On Mods and the TWC ToS

[Bolkonsky]

Due to the nature of Bethesda's games, and the extreme modding capabilities, many people has endeavored to create mods depicting sex and nudity. These mods are allowed on sites such as The Elder Scrolls Nexus, and Fallout Nexus. However, linking to them is in violation of the TWC ToS, specifically the Obscene Content clause. I have detailed what is prohibited below.

Providing images or videos of nudity. Nudity includes:
-Any figure whose genitals, pubic hair, buttocks, or (if female) nipples or areolas are exposed, partially or totally; or are not exposed, but it's clear that this is only because of the angle of the shot or incidental intervening objects (e.g., hands, hair, bits of cloth).
-Visible outlines of genitals or female nipples through clothing.
-Anything that falls narrowly outside the previous provisions, at the discretion of the moderators.

This applies to photographs, drawings, or any other representation of humanoid figures. It may also apply to non-humanoid figures such as animals, at the discretion of the moderators. Nudity may be permitted for serious and non-titillating purposes, such as the exhibition of recognized art or historical models in modifications, at the discretion of the moderators.

Providing image, video, or audio files that represent or hint at sexual intercourse, foreplay, , etc.

Links may not be posted for the purpose of providing obscene content. If a website incidentally includes some reasonably obscene content, it's acceptable to link to it for some other purpose as long as a clear warning is given. Similarly, if content incidentally includes some reasonably obscene content, it's acceptable to include it in a post for some other purpose, as long as a clear warning is given and the reader must actively click a button to view it (e.g., spoiler boxes or YouTube videos).
Excessively obscene content is still not allowed to be posted or linked to in any fashion. The distinction between moderate and excessive obscenity is at the discretion of the moderators. As always, if you aren't sure, ask a moderator.

You may still link to the Nexus sites, just not to any mod which violates the aforementioned guidelines. If you're not sure about something, please PM a moderator. Thank you.
