Line 89:
We also may discuss works and tropes of an adult nature, and so long as the discussions remain civil and on topic, they will not be censored. We discourage the use of profanities in these discussions; there's usually other ways to say the same things, and our reading audience does include people under the age of majority. See our policy on [[ATT:ACAFREE|Academic Freedom]] for details.
This does not give anyone ''carte blanche'' to post absolutely anything here, though. Quoting from [[All The Tropes:Literary Criticism#Academic Freedom|our policy on Academic Freedom]], "If it's not on the topic of creative works, it never belonged on the site in the first place." Also, we are not a government, and so constitutional protections of freedom of expression do not apply to us. We are allowed – [[meta:Terms of Use|and in some cases ''required'']] – to restrict what may be discussed here. Just because someone has a desire to exercise their freedom of expression on any matter other than tropes or troping doesn't mean we have to provide them with a venue to do so.
We may block your account for Censorware (or manual censorship) of certain language if it would destroy context (such as quotes from a work). This is done to protect the wiki from damage. See [[ATT:No Lewdness, No Prudishness]] and [[ATT:Strong Language Usage Rules]].
