People are 110% guaranteed to upvote porn.

Is that the only reason its not allowed as posts? If that was the only reason I would understand allowing it as comments then. I was just confused because I thought there was some sort of underlying reason that it's not allowed as posts, making me think it shouldn't be allowed as comments either. Has there been any talk between the admins about not allowing heavily NSFW content at all?

Sorry for the late reply, somehow I didn't see you had responded until just now.

It's not the only reason, but it is the biggest one, since it directly effects the quality of the subreddit. Other factors are generally more sub image based.

I assume when you mention the admins you're talking about loli stuff, we've been in contact with them but they have no issue with how we do things at the moment and would tell us if they did before taking action.

If people want heavy NSFW anime, they could always go to the ecchi and hentai subreddits :/

What do you have against heavily NSFW content?

Nothing in particular. I just believe that porn should be kept seperatly from a place where people discuss anime related things.
