My goal has always been for LPSG to be a sexy, friendly, and enjoyable community. I want everyone to feel welcome here. I want your experience at LPSG to be as positive as possible. Hence, this message to all of you.
There is one part of LPSG that has bothered me since I took over. That is the nastiness shown towards some performers. While this behavior is a very small part of LPSG it can be so nasty it makes all of LPSG look bad. There are some threads and comments that are hard to read. I think this is unfair, unwarranted and something we'd like to change.
Starting today we are going to make LPSG a nicer place.
The first thing we'd like to do is reduce is the number of unnecessarily mean comments.
A mean comment is one that intends, is meant, to hurt someone.
Examples of Unnecessarily Mean Comments....
Instead of posting "Mr. LPSG's Ugly" Post "Mr. LPSG's Not My Type".
Better yet, if you don't have anything nice to say don't comment. There seems to be this desire by a few Members to make performers feel worse about themselves. If you are posting to simply try to attack a performer please don't.
How will Unnecessarily Mean Comments be Handled?
First, it is important to remember LPSG works on a reporting system. So as this type of content is reported our team will review it and make a decision.
If the post was made before today it will be edited (to remove the mean part) or deleted.
If the post is made after today....
1st time. The user will receive a friendly reminder from us.
2nd time. The user will receive a warning.
If the user continues this behavior, they may end up being banned, either temporarily or permanently.
Being unnecessarily mean adds no value to a thread or to LPSG; not to mention it indirectly impacts the people who may like that particular performer. Repeated mean comments are a form of bullying towards a performer or person and that isn't acceptable. Users who do this will also be banned from posting in that thread in the future.
CyberBullying
There are two key factors that determine whether someone is bullying someone else or not.
1. The intent to harm
2. Repeated acts of threat or aggressive behavior.
This too will not be allowed on LPSG.
What are some forms of such bullying?
Nasty and humiliating comments
Sharing photos for the sole purpose of ridiculing someone
False information that can be damaging to the person's reputation
We will also not allow
Doxxing.
Trying to out a person.
Threatening to contact their family.
Trying to cancel a person.
Trying to hurt a person's reputation.
Sharing social media photos of someone's family (namely parents).
These are all forms of abuse that we do not want on LPSG.
Anyone making posts with such content that are reported will receive a warning; multiple warnings could lead to a ban. Any user who receives a warning for this may be banned from replying to that thread again in the future.
Please note... We are not asking users to go on a mass reporting crusade. Mass reporting is very disruptive to our moderating team. In general, if you have a few posts to report try to limit it to 5. That allows us to get to the really important reports like illegal content, spam, and harmful links.
Let me assure you this is in no way an attempt to censor you. You can still speak your mind. You are free to say when a performer is not worth the money. You are free to post when you've been scammed. You can talk about being disappointed and underwhelmed by a performer.
We are just asking you to be a little more mindful about the posts you make. The less negativity found on LPSG the more enjoyable it will be for all of us.
My goal is to make LPSG a more enjoyable community for all LPSG Users. I believe these measures will be a huge step in the right direction.
If you have any comments or suggestions regarding this I'm all ears. Thank you for reading and being here!
Thanks to all in advance for your cooperation.
