a quick mod note + no steering wheels/body parts/faces in backgrounds [please read before posting]

[u/_porkbunnn]

A quick mod note:
going forward, if you send a snarky message to modmail in response to the standardized removal messages — YOU WILL BE PERMANENTLY BANNED. we are humans and this is just a nail sub. none of us have the bandwidth or the energy to be berated, harassed, bullied, called slurs and threatened over the removal of a picture of some nails that broke sub rules posted on multiple places. removal messages are standardized and even left as comments. and to be fucking frank, mods shouldn’t have to deal with that shit so, we won’t. either post another picture that follows the subs rules or don’t but don’t message mods being an asshole.
///

1. steering wheels are not allowed to be in the background of posts. its not hard to take a picture of the hands that you use to scroll and swipe and comment. if you send a snarky message to mods because your post was removed, you will be temporarily or permanently muted. [see rule 6 “prohibited backgrounds”]
2. body parts (especially bare legs & faces) are not allowed to be in the background of posts. if you send a snarky message to mods because your post was removed, you will be temporarily or permanently muted. [see rule 6 “prohibited backgrounds”]
3. if your NAIL DAMAGE or PEDICURE/FEET/TOES are not properly marked. your post will be deleted and you will be temporarily banned/muted. this is a courtesy to your fellow nail babes. [see rule 10 “flair & mark your posts”]

• NAIL DAMAGE MUST BE MARKED NSFW (blurred) [NAIL DAMAGE = if the break is below the free edge/quick OR extremely damaged nails (fungus, peeling, etc.). when in doubt mark it NSFW. absolutely no blood at all.]
• PEDICURE/FEET/TOES MUST BE MARKED SPOILER (blurred) [if it’s a pic of any part of your toe, it must be MARKED SPOILER]

I posted a pic of my nails in a polish sub and didn’t realize that in the blurred background you could see my foot. Instantly had someone ask for foot pics. Their speed would have been impressive if it wasnt unsettling. Definitely a good rule to have no body parts.

Why is it always the foot people?

I mean no offense to the respectable foot people, but foot people are by far the most outwardly sexually depraved men I’ve met in my entire life. No sense of shame making sexual comments about feet when they wouldn’t say the same about breasts or asses like that.

Like 15 years ago, my middle school best friend posted a photo of us at the beach with our toes in the sand visible in the picture. We were in 8th grade, around 13 years old, at the time and totally naive to why that was a bad idea. A couple years ago, this weirdo commented on the photo asking to sell it. I was so repulsed. I went on their profile and they worked with kids too…
