How bold can fiction posted to the website be?

[MrFenrir]

How bold can stories and the like be in regards to sex, violence and general adult situations such as drug abuse etc?

[Aratos]

However bold the author wants it to be, of course...

Thanks, am new to this forum and am being idle by simply asking rather than searching for answers here!

I changed the topic based on what I assume you're asking about.

I don't know if any policy has been decided yet.

If its going to be very graphic or adult-ish, just mark it as adult when submitting the story. That way the kiddies won't get into it and you will be on the safe side.

On the other hand, I know of a submission that encouraged annorexics by showing them how to hide symptoms from their parents was deleted, so...

just don't go about writing a story deliberately for shock value really, just have a think about wether or not some people will like your story, or a lot of people will like your story. As it was pointed out somewhere, Tokyopop isn't held by the bill of rights, they have their own policies so i dunno, have a read of them :D
I have a yaoi story thats a bit gory(it has demons in it) with some heavy humourous shounen ai parts, and even though i could have written it way worse, I toned it down a little to appear to more audiences. Instead of explicit love scenes, its more humourous stuff, which suits my stye anyway :D
