The Moderators do not make an effort to censor any material posted to the site, as long as it is at least vaguely relevant to roleplaying on Shadow Council and/or this community. However, please keep in mind that people are often reading the site at work, school or other place where they might not be entirely alone. To prevent anything unfortunate from happening we've come up with two ways to alert the readers. We are asking the users to do the following things when posting explicit content:

1. Put a warning in the body of the content, at the top. Feel free to use ooc indicators such as double parentheses. Please add or move the preview separator so the explicit content doesn't show in the preview.

2. Set the rating to Explicit on the submission page. It's a drop-down menu near the top with the option of <none> or Explicit.

Mentions of mature content in the tags are also helpful. Use your own judgement; just imagine if your post or links contained within were opened at a public workplace where others could see. If you forget to add the warning, the moderation staff will add them for you if your work is deemed mature/explicit/not safe for work.

What constitutes an explicit post? Think along the lines of nudity, graphic depictions of sex, explicit and overly-gorey violence, excessive profanity, etc. While Haven is open to all forms of expression, we would appreciate these types of posts including an obvious warning at very least in the title, and also whereever else the author deems fit. For the most part, just use your own judgement. It's not a big deal if the Moderators need to add the tag to your title.

The moderators have the last word on what content requires a warning, and warnings added by the moderating staff should not be removed by the poster under any circumstances.
