Yeah, this might be tame for gore but it's gore never-the-less. Even if it is cartoon blood the wounds on the guy in the middle left looks a bit too real.

OBJECTION!

Guy in the middle doesn't show organs therefore it is not real!

This isn't Youtube where nudity is forbidden but gore is allowed to stay. The site's policy on what counts as forbidden content extends not only to sexual material, but violent material as well. If someone takes offense to that, it may be because he/she has been desensitized to violence and gore. Obviously, this makes for a poor excuse and is the equivalent of letting children watch R rated movies and TV-MA rated shows or play M-rated video games.
In short, standards on violent content on this site are no different from standards on sexual content. If it's too NSFW, it's too NSFW.

Blood/gore. More specifically, KYM bans "bodily fluids" from being shown in images.

I saw about a few pics in the gallery more realistic than this guy's upload. Seriously, only actual real life gore is not allowed.

One of the last images in the Childhood Enhanced gallery was an image of the returned lemon Jolly Rancher. It was popular with users, yet it ended up getting deleted without reason why. Can someone explain that?

>MFW this is allowed and always has been allowed when it pertains to the entry like (NSFW gore link) Boston Marathon bombing

>MFW mods have scolded me for zombie pics and this is allowed mind = blown

And the ridiculous reasons I've gotten for why one is allowed and not the other
Just another case of image mods trying too hard to find something that isn't there

Honestly, I never like the blanket rule "gore = delete".

We don't follow the blanket rule "sexual = delete", instead we use "extremely sexual = delete"

So I think should be "extremely gore = delete". In the same way

We've already accepted that there are varying degrees of sexual content, from softcore to explicit. We've accepted that it makes no sense to place a blanket ban on all categories, because that restricts what this site can cover far too much. It's also unnecessary as very few people are that upset by the lesser degrees.

Should gore be treated with that same respect? There are varying degrees of gore as well, ranging from 'owies and booboos' to 'Brutal Doom'. The internet is completely loaded with all ranges of gore and in varying contexts, so if we plan on hiding all gore under any context then that's a mission in futility

I remember when Vaz was caught under controversy because he posted a generic zombie with generic zombie traits, such as exposed brains. I also thought that was a load of rubbish. It was just a damn zombie. Who gets offended by a zombie?

Skeletor-sm
