Its a good call... I can see both sides of the issue but its better too err on the side of caution. I think we can all still find other kinks to enjoy on this forum.

Its not censorship, its for your personal safety as a free person in the world.
Dont be so selfish by trying to debate semantics with the Mods.
Just say "Thank you O great ones, your decision is wise."
And get back to spanking!

Well, censorship based on the rules! We try to keep everything free flowing and fair. What I mainly meant was, and was hinting at, is we're not going to censor you for being different and having a different outlook so long as it conforms to the site rules.
I don't think any of the Moderators here chose and voted for this decision expecting for it to be taken lightly. We're honestly sorry for the few people out there using this as a legit healthy fetish. But, it's impossible to know for sure who those users are.
Well Mac, at least you still have your yahoo group. Even though you can't post pics of dolls here anymore, there is still a whole lot of great stuff on the forum. I wouldn't say censorship, just being responsible.
I read your earlier posts asking where it can be proved that this sort of thing leads to pedophilia. Well the fact of the matter is that someone posted pics that were way over the line. I am sure you saw the explanation earlier in the thread. I am not accusing anyone of anything here, but this type of content can, and did in this case lead to exactly that. That is not my opinion, that is a fact, and that is why this type of subject matter is no longer allowed.
This can be broken down and argued to the smallest detail until we are all long gone, but I hope that isn't neccessary.
I hope you can find other things on the forum that interest you and you continue to be a member here.

If the Barbies in question were designed for adults it would make little sense to pull them. However, I appreciate your opinion and hope that every user can gain a little insight into the issue. If you'll notice, I did say that the Dolls can be used as collectibles by adults, but that's not their primary role in our society. I do realize that pedophilia is the attraction to pre-pubescent children. Qualities in which a doll does not exhibit, though most dolls resemble the physical structure and likeness of a young child, regardless of attire. It's for that reason and the pushing of what is deemed acceptable that it's best to do away with it altogether.
As another user pointed out, this makes a perfect subject to argue semantics. I cannot tell you in so many ways exactly how this can lead to illicit behavior, but that it does have the potential to, which is too great of a risk for the forum to take.
3 last points on this from me.
1: It doesn't matter what demographic you think these dolls are aimed at, they are for the most part bought for and represent people under 18, actually much under 18.
2: If you see pictures of someone who you think to be under 18 years of age on this site, please give the link so it can be dealt with ("13-25") is what you said was here so please let us know of the ones you think are under 18. I think the mods do a great job keeping an eye on that so please let me know what was missed.
3: We will not be perfect next year, and neither will you, we will just do the best that we can.
BTW, almost forgot, sex with teens might not be considered the "P" word by some, but it is illeagal in alot of places including where I am from.

jesus, why are we argueing if a barbie doll was aimed at children or not, shit look at the page they are on its all pink and star'y if thats not aimed at early teens then i dont know what is.
the truth of it is, that this is Facial Forum not Doll forum or spanking or fakers or anything else forum.
we reserve the right especially in the free section to remove any content for whatever reason we feel fit, the fact that our mods are trying to answer any Q's about the descision is over and above what they need to do, it was the admins descision to remove this content.
WE WILL NOT COMPROMISE OUR GREAT COMMUNITY FOR THE FETISH OF A VERY SMALL MINORITY.
Heres a quote from the link Mac posted:
"
Her black portfolio includes a mix-'n-match booklet to help you create all-new looks with her extra outfit and accessories. And don't forget to design a stylin' new 'do! (Ages 6+)
"
Do any of you notice the (ages 6+), please do not tell me they were designed for adults. my 7 year old daughter wants one.
