id like to ask why my pics were taken down...there were no erections,no hands on genitals and nothing rude or crude.im a paying member but i feel im being descriminated against because im a single guy.i have over 240 friends and not one can say that ive been abusive with pics or messages...WHY CANT I POST MORE PICS????i posted 22 pics and all were removed...why?when i search for other nudists on here i see guys with erections,hands on genitals,butt cheeks spread..but their pics are up...why cant i keep decent ones up?and some of the messages i receive are sickening...i treat others with respect with messages and my pics.most nudists talk about freedom when talking about being nude...i think this site should practice what it preaches and give this single guy some freedon!i love this site and im a paying member and was intending to STAY A PAYING MEMBER but i will not waste my money if this continues.

catbirdDec 27, 2010TT1 admits that he sometimes makes mistakes. Therefore I suggest try again to post your pictures.
Your screen name might prejudice TT1. A true nudist is not an exhibitionist. I also suggest that you change your screen name.

debeachbearDec 27, 2010OH PLEEZE!! you people who pretend to believe that nudism has absolutely nothing to do exhibitionism are grossly deluding yourselves. people who wear clothes are (usually) not exhibitionists. what do you think you are doing when you post pictures on this site, anyway? why are we waisting so much space on the servers for pictures? people want to be seen nude on this site. what is that called? exhibitionism!!! i agree that some degree of restraint needs to be upheld here, but jeeze, at least let the poor guy use the screen name that he wants.

I don't feel that a screen name is a reason to discriminate, I have boy in my screen name, does that imply that I am a boy or that I am looking for a boy? and I don't feel that it is fair to discriminate without justification. If pictures meet the requirements, and if there are others who have similar or pics that bend the rules, they should be painted with the same brush. The rules should be black and white and should apply to everyone.

If they meet rules 2 through 6 ... the pics i posted were available to everyone...not just my friends...ive been a nudist for 30 years and the friends i have(in real life)are not prejudice of ANYTHING...thats why i became a nudist

plainguyukDec 27, 2010I am slightly surprised by some of the views here.
An exhibitionist does not necessarily display genitals, he or she could display themselves in some fully clothed way and still be an exhibitionist.
I used to run a conference and exhibition management company, Many of my clients were therefore exhibitionists, I was also an exhibitionist because I delivered the exhibitions. I could therefore have legitimately chosen this name and then some folks here would have jumped to some unfounded conclusions about me.
Personally I see nothing wrong or unwholesome in the OP name, and if as stated the pics were not breaking any rules, who are we to discriminate in this arbitrary way. The OP clearly needs to post the pics again and if there is truly nothing wrong with them I expect they will be allowed.
If the name was indeed offensive then why delete the pics and say nothing about the name. Surely if the name breakes the rules with an offensive name the correct action is to fix the name, or at least say somethig about it.

UpstatenudeDec 28, 2010I am amazed they only attacked your name, and your "on cam" comment, I thought for sure they would go for the groups you are part of as well. As far as the pictures go, data on the internet gets lost all the time, your pictures could have accidentally gotten erased, deleted, or just flown off the spinning hard drive from centrifugal force (high RPM have that effect on things sometimes.) at any rate, the correct action would be repost and contact admin, and not raise a stink in public forum, that tends to get the hairs on peoples necks raised a little... I think you can go here to report a problem:http://www.truenudists.com/contact/and follow the directions to send a comment to the appropriate folks. As far as judging you..... who says people can't judge you? I don't remember that being in the "rules" or TOS anywhere, I reserve the right to judge anyone I wish, whenever I wish, weather it be in public forum or just in my head, welcome to life.... and deal with it. ok, enough babble now, hope everyone has a wonderful night.ReactReply - ST

Cheri Donna DawsonDec 28, 2010As previouslsy stated, your photos may have been taken down for a number of reasons. Only TT1(Administrator & Owner) of this site knows why.
Nudism and exhibitionism are not equal. I have fought way too many times in front of legislative bodies to keep what venues we have with a possibility of additional ones to agree that they are interchangeable. It's NOT about seeing or being seen. Nudism IS about being free from the societal constriction of clothing. It's about accepting your body for who you are, how you, act, and what you say rather than what you look like, own, or wear. In other words, my husband having accepted himself so much, he has added to it. ;)

DesertRatDec 28, 2010I was going to add my two cents worth to this issue but after reading all of the posts, everything that I would have said, has been said. There is nothing more that I feel I can add. Therefore, I would suggest that everyone drop this issue, take a big breath, step back and relax. I would like to remind everyone that this site, whatever its shortcomings, is the best nudist site on the internet. We should work to improve it from within and not bad mouth it from the outside. Lets not throw the baby out with the bathwater. Naked Hugs and Happy Nude Year.
