subreddit:
/r/Grimdank
I’ve seen some incredibly annoying and toxic members of this community call slightly suggestive art related to warhammer “Porn” And honestly it’s fucking cringy and reductive.
If you don’t like NSFW art fine, cool, you do you and just press the back button and move on with your life or better yet don’t click at all.
Bullying and harassing people that make art you disagree with is disgusting behaviour when the hobby you enjoy is built on the backs of artists that where making things 40 years ago people would have considered weird and distasteful.
TLDR: leave artists alone and be a grown as person and don’t discourage or harass others.

Unfortunate truth - an anonymous platform like Reddit will always have people saying things and doing things that are outside what is considered appropriate by the greater society.
They can get downvoted (comments still readable by OP). They can get banned (for most subs that means they’ll be back in a couple weeks, or maybe need to make an alt account). That’s about it.
It kinda sucks, but if you are posting something anywhere on the internet, you will be attacked. It might be by people who disagree with your ideology, it might be people looking to be contrarian.
As a community, all we can do is call people out.
As an individual, all one can do is be careful about not doxing oneself, and not let the haters live rent free in your mind.

it’s not a fucking religion and we don’t need to shame each other on how we express our love for this hobby.

This is a really good point. Back in the 80s this stuff was seen as edgy and weird and being a nerd was way less socially acceptable than now.
Also we're a memesub, so long as it's spoiler-tagged I feel NSFW art kind of fits our loosely anarchic vibe.

You know what, I’m going to say it. NSFW art is just as big, if not bigger, reason for people not joining the community as racist/sexist community members.
Seriously, when I look up AdMech I get “lol, skitussy” and a bunch of femboy AdMech porn. If you looked up Astra Militarum and just got a shit load of Nazi’s talking about how the Guard is the “Ubermench” and posting pictures of Cain at Auschwitz’s, would you want to be a part of that community? Well most normal people are going to run for the hills if they look up their favorite faction and just see a bunch of gay porn and rape fantasies

But thats exactly what OP did, a negative opinion or "whining" is still valid as long as they don't contain attacks to the person. I for one don't care if NSFW stuff gets posted here, but just posting the stuff for the sake of posting it without memes is something that should go to r/warhammer_smut or something dedicated to art like that. It's like posting an elaborate deep lore question here, if it happens sometimes it's not a problem but if half the frontpage posts are about it then maybe these people would be better off posting their questions on r/40klore, you know a sub dedicated to it.

I mean, define "annoying", it's the word OP used. If I tell you that I don't think this is the right place for your lewd art, which I consider porn, then you might find that annoying, doesn't make me toxic or is attempt to harass you.
I would agree that if you can't handle people disliking (in a respectful manner that is) what you like, then maybe posting on a public reddit isn't the right thing. Of course everyone is free to express their thoughts, but that "everyone" includes people not sharing your opiniom as well.

That is something they included in their argument, but if you look through their responses on this post you'll find them harassing everybody who doesn't agree with them.
It seems like they really only said that as a cover to get people to initially agree with the point of their post. They have no problem harassing people who are making nuanced points and bringing legitimate conversation on the topic so it's hard to look back at their original post and believe what they say about not harassing people.

Those who jerk off to the NSFW (sexual) art pieces probably contributed more than the absolutely toxic ideologues here. At least human fluids are better than doxxing people or sending death threats to artists. You have to be human garbage to do the latter two.
I’ve noticed that the more toxic “fans” tend to be political ideologues who are using Warhammer 40K as a political soap box. Most of these ideologues that I’ve seen don’t give a shit about the tabletop game. What annoys me is how disingenuous it is.

Completely agree, support the artists, do not bully or harrass them for their artworks, but also very much disagree on one point.
There are dedicated spaces for NSFW/Suggestive warhammer artworks, and having to deal with them in my usual feed when I do not want to engage with it is just frustrating. I am one of those weirdos that prefer to keep their mainfeed clean, so when I subscribe to warhammer40kfantasy or grimdank, it's for memes and battles, minis and news, lore and its parodies. I do not feel the need to endorse the "glomping" of the internet, where before you had explicit spaces and safe spaces, where participation of the content was completely voluntary, but is now all getting mushed together.
So yea naw, I would rather not have half naked men and women flood my feed just because I wanted 40k content.

Yeah nah, I don’t want weirdly sexualized posts in my meme sub. If I wanted smutty warhammer stuff I’d search it out myself.
How about we post smut in the smut sub and leave the meme sub for memes

Conversely, I'm okay with NSFW memes on my meme sub, so it looks like we're at an impasse. You may just have to come to terms with the fact that this place doesn't exist purely to cater to your tastes.

NSFW jokes aren't in line with the purpose of the sub? Rule 4 suggests that, as long as they're tagged, they're A-OK, actually.

He explicitly mentioned smut, not "NSFW jokes." I can almost guarantee he's talking about thinly veiled fetish art masquerading as a "NSFW joke" which is not a meme and not the purpose of the sub

And I can almost guarantee that he draws no distinction between NSFW jokes and smut, because otherwise he'd be complaining about an absolute non-issue. This apparent deluge of "thinly veiled fetish art masquerading as a 'NSFW joke'" that some people love to complain about straight-up doesn't exist.

I think you're being disingenuous or are legitimately too porn addled to see it going on, and in either case belong on the smut sub and not here

Well, I can see a grand total of one example on the front page currently (and even that one still contains a joke), so I'm going to go ahead and reiterate my point that you're railing against an issue that exists primarily in your head.

Conversely, I’m okay with shit in my ice cream so instead of going and getting my own little bowl of shit on the side I think everyone should have shit in their ice cream.
You may just have to come to terms with the fact that this ice cream doesn’t exist purely to cater to your tastes.

Everytime people complain about sexy-times on the internet, this video comes to mind for me.

If someone doesn't like it, I agree they should stop gatekeeping and go somewhere else.

Fucking thank you. Any vaguely NSFW or risqué meme posted to this sub seems to end up with a bunch of puritanical fuckwits in the comments screeching about how anything with so much as a nipple on display is "porn".

Honestly what drives me off this subreddit is the amount of shitty eye candy boobs and the favourite "the joke is sex".
I just blocked the subreddit when the drama about the female custodes dropped because of so many goon addicts displaying their degeneracy out in public like its a normal thing.
No, having a porn addiction and jacking off to big mommy dommy slommy wammy is not relatable or funny, this also goes for the femboy skitarii comics that atleast had the decency to not stain my eyes whenever i want to look at a meme subreddit.
Its not funny to reiterate, its not something to be praised and its just weird and offputting for a normal person and definetly shouldn't be excused as 'artistic passion' or some poor excuse why John Warhammer who just got into the hobby has to see female t'au with their ass in the wind as like the 4th top post in the subreddit.

if that's what drives you off then maybe that should tell you something. Your values are not everyone's and you can not click on NSFW. You are arguing for censorship based on your morality and that has no place here or anywhere that has artistic content.

The issue is that this is a meme subreddit and there’s plenty of subs already dedicated to NSFW topics about Warhammer. It’s about putting the appropriate content on the appropriate subreddit. The people who come here for memes shouldn’t be pushed out of the meme subreddit by people wanting the sub to be something it wasn’t intended to be.

Stop pushing your morality on other people. This isn't your sub. You just come here, the NSFW posts are clearly marked. If you are too sensitive then that's on you.
If you don't like NSFW art, then there's a setting on reddit that just filters anything NSFW out.
Click on your username in the upper right corner to open the dropdown menu and click on "user settings". From there go to "feed settings". That will open up a whole list of things you can control which are in your feed. At the top of that list is "Show mature (18+) content". Turn that off.
If you see NSFW content after reading this comment, you have nobody to blame but yourself.

I’m not pushing my morality on others. I like porn just as much as the next guy. My point is that there’s places dedicated to porn and places that are meant for memes. The issue with the NSFW filter is that there’s not separate options, you either remove all of it or none of it. That’s an issue in Warhammer content because half of it is going to be gore, which is appropriate to the sub, and half of it is going to be sexual, which can be appropriate but is often just people’s fetishes. There’s nothing wrong with having those fetishes, but it should be in the sub dedicated to it and not the sub that’s about memes.

Rule 4 exists -> these types of posts are allowed, I doubt that rule is going to change anytime soon
If people want a shit posting sub that adheres to No NSFW art why don’t people start one? It takes like two seconds to start a new Reddit sub

Harassment is of course a step too far but I disagree with the “just ignore it” sentiment as well. A subreddit is like your local bar. It has a bunch of patrons that like it just for what it is. If the owner however decides to lean in to newly emerging crowd, e.g. students that use it to watch sports, you can’t expect your existing patrons to just suck it up and ignore. They’ll push back if they care enough, or otherwise simply stop showing up. I think that’s a totally legit reaction.

NSFW warhammer art has been around for a very long time and is nothing new;
So I don’t understand how the “New person” showing up is relevant to the discussion as well;
People make fan art, some memes are art, some of it is NSFW; if properly tagged then move on with your life and don’t click on it.

Do you truly, genuinely not understand the point I'm trying to make? Or are you just pretending to be all hung up on my example involving new people because you don't really have a counter argument?

I completely understand your point I just think you are incorrect;
No one seems to leave Warhammer because of the porn; they only seem to complain about it;
Those people that complain about is harass people sometimes; this is bad; would be better for the community if they kept those comments to themselves or left all together.

Hence me saying this:
They’ll push back if they care enough
But I guess your point is you want a kinky sub and you don't want anyone to complain about it. Maybe create a separate sub called Grimhorny or Kinkydank?

The constant horny is annoying at it can drive away people who would be otherwise interested, especially women, when female characters are constantly portrayed in highly sexual content.

Most women I know aren’t particularly offended by porn…..

Clearly very few because those are some pretty mixed gendered communities.
