Yesterday, one member sent me a message with an attached picture of his private parts.

Although the said picture wasn't actually showing in his profile, I was under the impression that you absolutely DO NOT allow members to post such images regardless whether it's hidden or not.

What is the real deal here? Are we actually allowed as long as it's hidden, or do we still risk getting our account deleted?

Just a bit confused, that's all.

The administrator and moderators on this site can't control what people are sending to others when they're contacting them.
If the picture was available on his profile, then yes, he'd go bye-bye.

You can do one of a few things:
-Block them
-Ignore them
-You could report them, but I honestly don't know if there's anything the moderator's would do/could do about it.

Try writing to a moderator directly and ask them.

Now, me, I'm a sarcastic person, so I would have written him back if he has a picture that's bigger...tell him it's too small and you can't see it.

Right on the Images upload page, it says:

UPLOADING NUDITY WILL GET YOUR ACCOUNT DELETED


It cannot be any more explicit - the picture has been uploaded to the site - period.

Report him via the Report User link at the bottom of his profile.

Correct, it cannot even be uploaded at all.

It states at the Top of the Image Upload Page:

UPLOADING NUDITY WILL GET YOUR ACCOUNT DELETED

What is the real deal here? Are we actually allowed as long as it's hidden, or do we still risk getting our account deleted?

Anyone who uploads Nudity will have their Account deleted.

Yesterday, one member sent me a message with an attached picture of his private parts.

Click on the Report Member Link at the Bottom of that User's Profile and file a Report.

Someone is bound to report him at some Point, and will also be barred from creating another Profile here at POF. Not a smart Thing to do at all.

I've just noticed that his profile has disappeared.

At this point, I could only think that he has hidden his profile before he could get reported. If that was the case, then I will not be able to report him to the admin.

He could also unhide his profile at some time and possibly send me (or other members) another rude message.

I know his username and if you want to check on him, admins please PM me.

Thanks!

He'll be caught sooner or later. Most People will report those who have sent offensive & Nude Images.

I know his username and if you want to check on him, admins please PM me.

Report Link will do, as they are deleted by the Admin.

Well, hey, you learn something new every day...I didn't realize that the "uploading nudity" rule was also in regards to emails sent between members. Good rule.

Yup, ...as long as people report its violation, ....something can be done about it.

OP, I sat all weekend and deleted so many of these type pix's...just accidently came across this thread!

After seeing your concern, you've renewed my incintive to take few hours out here and there and delete away.

Tedious as it was, its my own small way of contributing...to remove Pond scum.

cheers

just so you, nor anyone else is under any misunderstanding - You are NOT deleting anything, you are effectively only sending a report that may, or may not be acted upon.

So if someone IM's you and no photo shows to start with (which indicates no public photo on profile),and then all of a sudden a photo of his parts pop up; are they tapping it through a webcam, or are they at the moment making the photo they have uploaded public?

If the latter I can report them right?

If you are on IM and the profile pic went from either no pic or a pic to suddenly something different, yes, its most likely cause they are broadcasting something else on cam. I've seen men get tricky, either they will broadcast a pic of their privates or they will broadcast themselves live doing dirty things. Heck, theres even third party software out there that allows people to broadcast recording videos (ie: porn) from their cameras.

That being said, if you were on messenger and someone started showing nudity, I would block them and then make sure I reported the user via their profile. If after you block them you cant find their profile to report them, just go here and search your block list - they should be listed:

Thanks miss allison. I guess my concern is that if they are broadcasting a photo NOT uploaded, are they breaking a rule? Much as I dislike what they do, I don't want to report someone if they are within the limits of use. I read a suggestion that you could do a print screen and save it as a document to prove what happened. But I'm not sure you can attach the document in the report.

It doesn't happen often but still.

Whether a Photo has already been uploaded but left hidden as a "Private Image", or the User has just uploaded one, nevertheless he has just Checked Image to "Show on Profile" and Selected the Pic as 'Main Image' while he was IM'ing you.

Your IM window will refresh and show the newly posted Profile Pic.

If the latter I can report them right?

"Broadcasting" is not a Profile Pic, but their Webcam must be on for you to see it.
Either Way, click the Report Member Link at the Bottom of his Profile and file your Report.

Not valid, too easy to forge/edit.

Good point but honestly, I suspect if they are doing it to you, they are doing it to others. No guarantees what admin would do about the report but its worth the try.

oh dear, I thought deletes got sent back to user with 'reason attached'...because I saw same pixs come right back through... at time I figured user was pushing it back thru....hoping to have it slip by to fellow POFer sitting there...

i actually was on such a roll, i got a WE HAVE NO MORE IMAGES FOR YOU

^^^^^^LMAO ~ that happened to me one Sunday afternoon. I had NOTHING to do but sit and do that silly new image thingie. All of a sudden, it got bored with me and told me to go do something else. LOL ~ It is a contribution though ~ and I ran across some pretty raunchy stuff. Once it told me to go away, I went and read Success Stories and Testamonials for a couple hours. Nothing like getting a little faith while we're here.
