+## Original Introductory Document
+__Originally posted 2023/04/03__
+
+While it doesn't bear explaining here why real pictures of child sexual exploitation are banned, the question of what to do with *drawings* depicting sexualised children is far more difficult.
+
+I abhor to ban anything, even some things which disgust me. Many things I permit because I believe the freedom afforded by doing so is more important than preventing the potential harm of allowing them. Judging that balance is very difficult but life has a way of forcing one to make such decisions.
+
+Drawings of children, implicitly or explicitly sexualised, are obviously disgusting to anyone without paedophillic tastes.
+There are, however, 2 mitigating points:
+- Unlike sexualised pictures of real children, illustrations do not __necessarily require__ real-life sexual abuse of children to take place.
+- It could be argued that paedophiles can use illustrations of sexualised children as a sexual outlet, and are thus less likely to abuse real children.
+Given these factors, I have always had some hesitation about outright censoring such material.
+
+However, our policy is firmly to disallow such material.
+What follows is the qualification and justification for this policy.
+
+First, let us ensure we don't go too far. Many illustration styles, especially Japanese, often depict young people in the range of about 14-20 years old as indistinguishable age-wise from each other. Many such styles are also globally-popular and accepted. If, in the given style, the character could plausibly be 18, then generally assume they are. This often requires arbitration, and ambiguities must be dealt with carefully.
+
+But if the character couldn't be older than 12, we have a problem.
+
+When judging an illustration, consider these factors:
+- Does the illustration include a character which is clearly prepubescent?
+- Does the illustration seem to be intended to invoke lust?
+- Does the illustration focus on the form, state, or other precise details of the bodies of such characters?
+- Does the illustration feature suggestive objects or substances in interaction with them?
+- What is the degree of artistic abstraction? Are the body proportions realistic? The lighting? How much detail is included?
+- Could the illustration reasonably have been drawn by someone without paedophillic tastes?
+As before, making such determinations often requires arbitration, and ambiguities must be dealt with carefully.
+This is ultimately subjective, but in most cases, to most people, it is obvious.
+
+The justification I have for this policy is not as categorical as I would prefer, and each of these points may not be a sufficient justification on their own, but together they reach just over the threshold of justification, in my opinion.
+The justification arises from these factors:
+- Anyone who creates, holds, or shares such material is likely to be a paedophile.
+- Some such material may be traced from real child sexual exploitation images. This is not sufficiently different than sharing the original. It is also nearly-impossible to determine.
+- Such material is illegal in many western nations. Unjust laws do not deserve respect, but this law is not clearly unjust, even if you may have misgivings about an entire nation restricting it. Either way, these laws pose a plausible danger of extreme consequences to some of our community's members, including its owner.
+
+Discussion around this policy is welcome, but beyond some specifics, the policy is very unlikely to change.
+
+A few additional points:
+- The given/canonical age of a character, be it 14 or 14,000, is usually not relevant.
+- Recognising an illustrator's attempt to sexualise something is not the same as finding it attractive. Similarly, understanding that a knife can be used to kill someone is not the same as actually stabbing someone to death. This equivocation is one of several tactics used to justify posting paedophillic content in general. All such tactics should be ignored, and result in severe suspicion of their user.
+- Deleting potentially offending content may (and often *should*) be done even before its legality is determined.
+- Posting a screenshot of the full message which includes potentially-disallowed material is allowed in the non-public moderation channel only, but should be deleted as soon as arbitration is complete.

 # Notification Abuse
+Taking actions which produce notifications for users which are excessive in either their rate, their quantity, or their lack of meaningfulness, is prohibited.

+*Therefore, spam-pings are allowed, but only when deemed by the Cabal officials to be clearly well-founded per the above standards. Such cases will be very rare, and will usually only be those cases explicitly permitted by the Cabal officials.*
+
+## Vicarious Violation
+On many platforms, including Discord, regulation of the notification system is mostly handed-off to venue owners, thus they bear some responsibility for how their users use the system.
+
+Thus, if a user abuses the system, they are not only personally responsible for the problem, but are also causing the server to be partially responsible for it.
+
+This significantly increases the seriousness of the problem, and positively presents the need to prohibit these actions, even sometimes more harshly than the raw actions may seem to warrant.
