PSW RULES
I am excited to be taking over this group. I am going to be changing things around here AND also really enforcing rules that have been in place since the start. Yes, I am going to be hard-assed about this. This is not a place for drama or creeps or assholes. This group no longer offers girls a place to feel comfortable about themselves, and many girls no longer enjoy posting pictures of themselves. That needs to change. If I come off bitchy, I really am sorry. But my concern will ALWAYS be the women who are brave enough to post naked pictures of their selves. I will not tolerate jealousy, cat fights, bashing, name calling, inappropriate leering, jeering comments, or anything that is rude and/or offensive to ANY member. I know how easy it can be to respond to someone who is being an asshole with your own post that is just as rude.
IF ANYONE HAS A PROBLEM WITH A GROUP MEMBER, COME TO ME DIRECTLY. DO NOT RESPOND IN KIND TO THAT PERSON'S POST WITH EPITHETS AND AGGRESSIVE COMMENTS. IGNORE THEM. I, AND ONLY I, WILL TAKE CARE OF THE OFFENSIVE MEMBER. IF SOMEONE DOES RESPOND AND A FIGHT INITIATES DUE TO IT, I WILL BAN BOTH MEMBERS.
I know that a lot of shit has been going on here. There have been discussions, arguments and flat-out bitch fights over many things. Unfortunately that has kind of overshadowed what this group is supposed to be about: plus-size women having a place to talk about PSW-related subjects, post classy, sexy pics of themselves, and for the people (men and women) to express their appreciation for PSWs.
THAT IS ALL.
It is not a place to chat about random subjects. Any subjects that relates to PSW/BBWs are fine. However, if you post a topic about the new season of "Hannah Montana" I will delete it and I will send you message explaining why. I will also keep a record of people who continuously post random topics. If they refuse to abide by the rules I will ban them. I will always send a message to any member that I am banning, explaining precisely what has happened and why.
The main thing that I won't tolerate (other than inappropriate set comments) is bitching. About anything. Girls, if there are members who get more comments on their sets than you, get the fuck over it. I am not going to command every member in this group to comment on every set. It is there own prerogative to comment on which ever sets they want. End of story. This is NOT a popularity contest. No matter how many comments you got compared to any other girl, feel good and proud about yourself and your sexuality. We all DO appreciate every set that goes up because we know it takes courage to do it. Stop measuring yourself by the number of people who commented on your pics. TarNish posted this a couple years ago and I want you all to read it again:
This is it. The drama and bullshit ends here. There is nothing that I can do as moderator, to make more people comment on more sets, and there is nothing the girls who get tons of comments, can do about the amount of comments they get.
If you are unsatisfied with the number of comments your sets receive, trust me, I understand, but there really is nothing that anyone can do to make more people comment. I personally, will encourage anyone who wants to post photosets, regardless of the amount of comments they receive, to do so. But I will also say, that if you're only posting in the hopes of getting loads of comments, and are going to be truly disappointed and upset if you don't. Maybe it's best that you don't post sets. Because as much as it sucks, and doesn't seem very supportive to say, you have to first believe in your own beauty, and then have faith strong enough in it, to not be discouraged and have your ego shattered if your set isn't as well received as another girls.
INAPPROPRIATE COMMENTS OR HARRASSMENT: Every member here deserves respect, the models even more so. If any one is being harassed please notify me immediately with a copy of or link to the offensive comment/message. If any member in here decides to harass or threaten or stalk (in any way, rudely or lecherously) any member, especially a model, and I have proof of it, know this: I will ban you from this group so fast your ass will catch fire. And then I will contact staff to have you banned from this site. The same will happen if you send me rude or threatening message because I banned you from this group or I denied you membership.
You will NOT get second chances in here. Just because you are a popular model or an active member or someone "totally vouches" for you, that means nothing to me. If I hear of even ONE rude or offensive comment towards any member of this group, I will ban you. I don't care if there is a person who just called a model a "fat bitch" and you are responding to protect that girl's honor. If you respond with a rude name or epithet, I will ban you. You can tell them to be nice, knock it off, or warn them that you are sending me a report--but do NOT start fighting and name-calling with that person.
Let me clarify this: I have no problem with well thought, educated, well-formed opinions in an argument. What I have a problem with is "Fuck off, idiot" and the like. You need to use your common sense. If I think that you are toeing the line of disrespect, I will warn you. If you do it again, I will ban you. Obvious rudeness or disrespect gets an immediate ban.
Please read and follow the rules of our group. Should you break any of the rules you will get one warning before I ban you from the group. I reserve the right to ban people from the group without warning. This group follows the same rules as SG.com. Please read the SG FAQ if you are unclear.
Now I am going to add and change some things to the general rules. Anything new that I added or changed with be bold beneath the original rule:
:: General Rules of Conduct ::
1- All SG rules in the site FAQs apply here.
2- Use discretion before commenting. If you can't say something nice about someone (PSW or not), then don't say anything at all. This includes comments about weight, such as "thin girls aren't real girls" and "they look anorexic".
3- ZERO tolerance for disrespect to the PSW Models, group members, or Suicide Girls.
4- Topics posted are to be limited to PSW-related subjects ONLY. This is not a group to pass around pictures of your new puppy, talk about who you think is the hottest dude in Hollywood, what your political leanings are or how you souped up your car last month.
5- If you start OR participate in a fight on the boards here, I will warn you ONCE; next time you will be banned from the group. If it is an extreme case I will ban you without a warning and I will send your information to the staff. This is especially true for any hecklers of the SG or PSW models.
:: General Rules about Photo Sets ::
1- You must be a member of SG and PSW to post a photoset. You may not post a photoset of someone else.
2- You must be a size 13 and up to post a set. If you are not a size 13 and decide to do a set with a PSW girl (also an SG member and member of the group), you may post the set.
You must be a size TWELVE (*USA = 12 *European = 42 *UK = 14) and up to post in PSW. The reason I changed that is because many places don't use odd numbers in their sizes. As a general understanding in the model industry, plus-size is 12 and over, so that is what I am going by. HOWEVER, I know that there are many body types that don't seen to fit in one specific category. A women who is short will be curvier than a tall woman who wears the same size. Just please use your common sense on this. If you have a pooch or belly, if there is some meat on your hips to grab onto, and if maybe your ass jiggles when you walk, then yeah post a set. I am not going to demand proof of your size, so use your judgment. I will, however, take down a set if I think the model is NOT even close to being a PSW. Of course, I will e-mail her explaining everything, but I will take it down. We are looking for curves, booty, meat-on-the-bones, etc.
Also, as long as you are at least a 12, I don't care how big you or your ass is. Please don't think you are too big to post pictures here. All large women are welcome. And PSW is not synonymous for "big boobies." No, you do not have to be large-chested to model here. If you are ever unsure whether or not you are plus-sized enough to post in here, please feel free to message me a pic and I will tell you yes or no.
3- Sets must be consecutive shots as in a "set of photos" not a group of random images to be posted in the photo sets. You may post random images in your profile and link to them in a topic in the group. If you are unsure as to how to create a "set" sequence, please refer to other PSW sets or to the SG sets. They will at least give you an idea of how to create a creative, consecutive set of photos. If you ever have any questions, please message me.
4- Minimum of ten pics per set, and you must show your body as well as your face (you may stay clothed). Anything less is not a true "photoset" and will be deleted. It is preferable that each shot contain your body and face, not just a random assortment of body parts with some face shots thrown in. Webcam shots of just your head and shoulders do not count as a photoset.
5- Please title your set "Username: Title" and create a topic of the same title.
6- Webcam pics are fine, as long as they aren't overly grainy. Please maintain a certain image quality in your sets. Also, please be aware of the lighting. Overly dark pictures are not acceptable. We must be able to actually see you and your body.
7- Should you want a set(s) removed from the group please email TigerAngel (or post in her journal) the name and date of the set you want removed.
8- No bestiality. No racism. No sets with boys. No sets with SGs, as they are paid models for the site. No penetration. You can hold, show and play with dildos or vibrators but do NOT use them. Also, please be careful with bondage or gore. I know that recently such sets on SG as CandyAss and Blood have been put back up; that does not mean I am going to take any chances with our group here. A little rope or a little blood or some cuffs--that's fine. Just please don't go too far. Again, if you have any questions please message me.
EDIT: I only check this page occassionally. If you leave a comment here, I will eventually see it, but there is no guarantee when. If you would like to leave a comment about your application, please either PM or leave a comment on my CURRENT journal.
Also, there is no reason for you to leave me a comment or message saying "Please accept me to your group" if you have NOT APPLIED TO THE GROUP. I cannot and will not seek you out to make sure you have applied.
