How borderline is a spray?

    Hey I was just wondering if I could get some input on this spray: http://imgur.com/JlHbP0T
    Also, that is not a covered-up penis, that is not semen, and the picture features no nudity.



    Edit: Also the original picture is from a pornographic video, but that doesn't change the fact that the liquid show is not semen and that the "penis" is not real.

    Yup, 100% okay... Well legally anyways, not morally LOL. Yes, you can totally have this spray.

    Edit(because of OP's edit): Nope it's still okay. The context isn't needed if it's not obvious. Considering the spray isn't a GIF and is a standstill, it is perfectly acceptable from the frame that is presented.

    I would be very against this spray. The same way we don't allow hentai sprays, even though "the penis and such aren't real", I wouldn't think this would be allowable. The admins have defined offensive sprays to include "those meant to stimulate, arouse, etc". Having a direct screenshot from a porno of a woman being blasted with fake semen, with some crude paintshopping over the fake penis, should not make it okay.

    That would be like posting some gory scene from Saw and then arguing "well the blood's not real, and neither are the guts!"

    Well I'm wrong I guess. I just assumed since it was from a porno, it would not be allowed

    Well I've heard that rule too, the one regarding "those meant to stimulate, arouse, etc," but if you think about it anything can arouse people. I could have a spray of a bowl of fruit and they'd be aroused, haha. People are weird.

    Just because it has "crude paint-shopping" doesn't mean it's anything that it's not. I see no penis, teet or sexual areas displayed. The rule is "no pornography," not "no provocative sprays." The image might have been pulled from a not-so-safe for work location, but the way that it's been edited displays a very PG-13 rating, which is what we allow.

    Without schema and prior knowledge, we would have no way of knowing it was from a porno unless we've seen it for ourselves. Even then, the image is still OK.

    If you doubt my call, feel free to ask a Lead Admin, I'm sure they'd be very capable of telling you that this is allowed.

    Well someone actually had seen it, and explained to me that the porno included a man who had a surgically altered penis, the first time I kicked him to change the spray. Clearly, he never changed it, and still continues to spray it. I kicked him today again, and so he took it to the forums. BTW, this is Hulk that sprayed it

    Hm, he should have taken it to the forums immediately after you kicked him. The spray is okay, even if someone has seen it. The reasoning is because it has been altered into a silly image and not left as a pornographic spray.

    But isnt the fact it is from a porno not make it ok?

    Actually no, it's okay regardless where it comes from. That's simply due to the fact that you're not watching "where it came from" in that one picture. You're only seeing that one still. The spray is OK.

    Alrights guys, that's enough debate for now. Let's wait for a higher-up to confirm everything.

    I can see people, mainly some of the younger folks who play here, getting offended/grossed out by it.
    I highly recommend changing it.

    Nothing in the picture suggests anything sexual, unlike the last one which had all that nasty milk all over it.

    I would highly recommend changing that spray, as well.

    I just want to give you a little input. Loophole trolls don't last long in this community. They are like a cancer that degrades the name of the community and we will cut them out.
