And I will ask again.
Who will decide what gets tagged as porn?
Who will report it when someone ignores (or is oblivious about) the porn tag and will just use the NSFW one?
(porn spammers don't give a fuck about the welcome page of websites they target).
Giving a special treatment to porn by creating a specific category will attract more porn spam.
Next will be those who don't want to see subs they consider racist, then LGBTQWERTY, next Vegan...
You know what I mean.
Porn won't get a special treatment. It's part of the NSFW category.
Besides my other points, it seems a little defeatist to argue against making a rule because bad people won't follow it. Imagine if such argument were made against other things that are against the site rules, such as pedophilia, illegal content, or threats of violence.
Who will decide what is illegal content?
Who will report it when someone ignores (or is oblivious about) the illegal content rule and will just post it anyway? (ciminals don't give a fuck about the welcome page of websites they target).
Who will report it when someone ignores (or is oblivious about) the illegal content
Who will report the illegal content if it's categorized and blocked by everyone?
If porn is properly categorized and blocked by everyone, then no rule violation will have been committed.
Users. First self-regulation, then via peers (report button, replies, PMs), then mods (replies, PMs, post deletion, user ban), then finally admins only if all of the previous steps fail.
Next will be those who don't want to see subs they consider racist, then LGBTQWERTY, next Vegan...
Yeah but you can say no to these requests based on lack of merit for them. (If they even occur, which I think is unlikely.)
Creating a blockable porn category would attract less porn because Schlomo has little way of knowing whether it's getting any views. (And if they don't figure it out, we've wasted Schlomo's time and sheckles, which is a noble achievement.)

So I can say no to any of these requests but yours?

Quite the contrary, This will give them a reason to just post porn as NSFW while playing the "I didn't know" card.
Porn doesn't deserve a special treatment that would attract more spammers.
>So I can say no to any of these requests but yours
I never implied you couldn't make up your own mind on the merit of my suggestion. I'm simply making my case for it here.
This sort of "if I say yes to one thing people will ask for other things" is a poor argument because:
1) people will ask what they're gonna ask anyway
2) you don't have to say yes to one request just because you said yes to another one.
