If someone asks, or incites creepy or comments with too much information in them should it be part of the "creepy/tmi" rule?

I'm just wondering what other users think since Ive seen others incite or request information that can quickly hit the red zone. When reported I'm usually told, "not against the rules".

Requesting real life info from another user has always been a no-no

I think that's going too far, to be honest.

The creepy/tmi rule is because no one needs to know how someone [blanked] their [blank] while looking at the picture.

But if someone asks "hey, does anyone else think she's hot?" it's not actually being creepy. And as long as they stay on the right side of that line, I don't think they should be getting reported just because they might cross it (when they do, that's when they'll get disciplined). OR because they might be the excuse someone else uses to break them (it's still a person's choice to answer tastefully, or not at all, and it's not like that comment being there is ever going to force anyone to act creepy who doesn't want to).

I think there's trying to protect the rules, and then there's overreaching into trying to control how people are. Some people view pictures in a sexual light. As long as they're not overstepping into being publicly creepy about it, then you just have to live and let live.

You even said it yourself "...that can quickly hit the red zone...". The operative word being "can" but has not yet. You cannot enforce rules that have not yet been broken, on the off-chance that someone might be thinking about it. Rules cannot work that way and still be justice or even close to it. (and now all I can think about is that crappy 'Minority Report' movie with it's unusable system of prophylactically enforcing laws). I really think reporting comments that mightpossiblymaybesomeday-but-not-yet lead to a creepy conversation...would be just flat out wrong and should never be part of the coc policy. So, you asked and that is my two cents on the matter. Thoroughly non-official but that is how I feel about it. I just think it's going way too far.

What I mean by requesting is when someone makes a comment that borders the creepy/tmi line but not enough to cross it. Then someone else comes along and says "do tell me more" or "go on" ect. Basicly asking said person to cross the line of no return.

No real information, but rather asking another User to divulge a comment that can land them in hot water should someone report it.

Since I cant respond and successfully respond to the User above my comment,
I agree, coc shouldn't censor users that way. However that's not exactly what I mean, feel free to view the ticket that brought this up.

Oh, you mean baiting. Yes, that does seem like it should be against a rule somewhere. It's like a form of trolling while simultaneous encouraging someone (knowingly or unknowingly) to get themselves in trouble. I'd suspect some might bait and then report them if someone falls for it.

In concept it wouldn't be much different than the reason it's against the rules to encourage people to quickly download a DNP before it gets deleted, especially if it's paid material. The similarity is that it's blatantly encouraging other users to break site rules.

I don't think it should be part of the creepy/tmi rule though. Baiting and/or blatantly encouraging someone else to break a rule is kind of a separate issue. Still, if it's not already against the rules somewhere, then it probably would be good to add it to the rules in some way.

Honestly, I'd only take issue with this if the person who baits is the one who reports it.

If somebody willfully breaks the rules than that is on them alone, nobody is forcing them to do so and they should know if something they plan on doing is good for them or not.
