Adult Content
Our content goal is to be safe for children, safe to browse in public. With that intent in mind we will not accept adult content, nor sexual content or any kind of lewd images anymore if they're not edited, censored or cropped.
H-game and H-anime are still allowed, but cover images and character images will have to be closely monitored and edited from now on.

What needs to be censored?[edit]
What can be considered sexual imagery and needs to be censored is:
- nudity
- close-ups of breasts
- buttocks or crotches
- images featuring legs spread open
- sheer or see-through clothing
- sexual body parts that are blurred
- men or women posing and/or undressing in a seductive manner
- bulgy crotches
- erect nipples
- visible areola (sheer clothing)
- ahegao
- visible lingerie (panties/bra)
- sexual fluids
- visible under/side breast
- very accentuated cleavage
- child-looking characters in any type of skimpy clothing
- BDSM gear or clothing that suggests BDSM
- flesh colored outfits
- tight outfits that detail curves around the body
Blurred and pixelated censoring will not work, the image analyzing AI from search engines can recognize those as lewd images and flag the page.
A thought exercise I've been using is: Could you safely show the image to a child and their parents / looking at this picture at work without getting arrested / getting yelled at? The answer obviously should always be YES. ACDB needs to be family and work friendly
Which parts of the character profile will be affected?[edit]
- thumbnails
- full body images
- extra images gallery
Characters that have a design too lewd or that are difficult to censor without erasing their entire bodies should have their images cropped to around the shoulder area.
How to censor H-game/H-anime characters?[edit]
Since blurred or pixelated images will still be captured and flagged as adult content, the safest way to censor the character's image is to either:
- crop them up to their shoulders
- use white bars to censor the sensitive areas.
A good way to check if the character has been successfully censored is by searching their name in a private window with safe search on.

If the result linking to our website is behind this screen, then it needs work.
You can also test if an image has been successfully censored by trying out the AI bot Google uses, Cloud Vision.
