As of this morning, we are no longer accepting articles on anything Casino or Gambling related and all articles have been removed in that category. This was a tough decision because of our desire to balance the needs of our authors & publishers vs. the needs of our advertisers.
In addition, we are no longer accepting articles with any variation on the “F” word due to complaints received. This only impacts a very small number of articles. We’re also working retroactive to help authors edit their articles if the F word was used or remove PSD to HTML them all together if the message can’t be delivered right without the use of the F word. This F word decision was not one that we made lightly, but we knew it was one that had to be made to ensure the long-term success of the website.
What’s really interesting is that the greater majority of usage of the F-word were not relating to the act that it describes, but in the use of the word as a descriptor of intensity or from quoting a movie or song lyrics. In any case, its time has come and passed for our site and thanks for understanding.
