MNHQ policy on porn

Just wondering whether The HQ has a policy regarding porn-related threads that crop up, sometimes on Relationships or AIBU?

There is one thread active at the moment that I found really distasteful the longer it has gone on. It started out with someone seeking advice, but it has degenerated ... Posters egging each other on to Google various vile porn-related search terms etc.

Is it just a question of "well don't click on the thread" and does MNHQ take a completely permissive approach, anything goes or is there a threshold beyond which it's time to say, enough of this, go and talk about porn all you like but not on a family oriented website (my preference!).

Many thanks.

Hi OP
As Chaos says, this is a website for grown ups.

Porn is a massive problem for many relationships and it's also something that people for obvious reasons DON"T want to talk about in RL.
That said, our talk guidelines also say that if something is "beyond the pale" then we will remove it - and it's possible that some of the things on this specific thread (have you reported it btw?) may well stray into that territory.

FWIW, I've been here for a VERY long time and know now that if someone says "don't google." then seriously, don't google Grin
Hope this clears this up but do let us know if there's anything else with which we can help.
