So I know that Captions and Literature threads on /d/ have been disallowed for quite some time now, as announced by this sticky: https://desuarchive.org/d/thread/7509079. Many users aren't aware of these rules, though, and post the content anyway, unknowing that it has been banned. This usually leads to it getting reported by the more experienced users, and maybe a little fighting between the more experienced users of the board and the newer people, who insist that the content is allowed because the rules don't say anything about them.So why don't we add a rule to /d/, explaining that Fiction, Captions, and "Censorship Captions" aren't allowed? I think it would help to keep a lot of this content off /d/, and on its appropriate boards. I see a lot of content on /d/ that violates the rules or goes into a grey area, but a lot of stuff (especially western art by certain artists) never get reported, because a lot of people are just used to posting it on /d/ instead of /aco/ or /trash/.
OP here...So I spoke with another /d/ janitor some time ago and he had some pretty good explanations about why there aren't formal rules against captions/censorship threads. They were deemed to be of an unfitting quality to /d/, so they aren't allowed for that reason. Fiction really isn't hentai, either.
