Bottom line on this thread is: This site is privately owned. The rules are the rules. Enough with the crying "censorship" BS.

Lack of context. I assumed you were the one trying to pick the personal fight. Misunderstanding, and no worries.
And I'm not attempting to cry about the censorship. I'm merely stating that what one person understands as "NSFW" is not what everyone understands.
I have a completely different opinion about what the purpose of NSFW is than Chris does (quite obviously). Or at least, we disagree on the content. Or maybe our disagreement is a little more complex than that. I see it as:
There might be stuff in here that is potentially offensive to someone. If you are easily offended, don't open. If you're in the company of other people who may be easily offended, don't open (such as in the work place). That does not mean put blatant offensive material in here. But it does mean that I can put things in there that I think the majority of the people posting will enjoy, as long as it doesn't violate general intentionally offensive subject material (porn, racism, political stuffs, religious stuffs....)
There will always be someone offended by almost everything that goes on the internet. I mean people are offended at how Carl's Jr. "takes advantage of women". Those ads may be considered "NSFW" for some.
Until recently, that was ok. Now, the topic that is NSFW as I understood it, is no longer allowed. That's fine. But the reason it crossed the line is because people understood the allowed content differently than others. That's my only point. What is "NSFW" just does not mean the same thing to everyone.
