"Alaska" reader was blank… now there is porn?

  • Unknown's avatar

    What is going on? Our reader has “Alaska” as one of our tags we follow. Yesterday and this morning, there were no blogs under “Alaska” tag, which we think is impossible based on our daily readings. Just now, the “Alaska” tag has only one post, and it is porn? What is going on?

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Mature content is allowed. Porn is not allowed.
    That post is the former and not the latter.

    “Adult” or mature content blogs are allowed but pornography is not allowed.
    From the TOS http://en.wordpress.com/tos/
    Please don’t:
    •Post explicit sexual materials that can be considered pornographic, such as explicit images or video of sexual acts or close-up images of genitalia;
    •Post links or banner ads to adult-oriented affiliate networks, such as pornography site signups;
    •Post links, text, or images promoting or advertising escort services;
    •Post images of extreme violence or gore without associated context or commentary;
    •Post images of child pornography;
    •Post content that promotes pedophilia, such as blogs with galleries of images of children where the images, content surrounding the images, or the intent of the blog is sexually suggestive.

    Thank you for the definition. Now why is only one “adult content” blog on the Alaska reader page? There are normally many posts daily which have the “Alaska” tag.
