Hey moddly beings I got a question about how to RP a genocide taking place in an RP setting without straying into violence porn territory or breaking to many rules on the site.
If y’all would know of a good way to conduct this it would be great

Didn’t even know those existed.
Thanks for the information

That featured a significant number of posts that varied from "just" to "quite far" over the line and it has been removed from public view as a result. It was quite gleefully graphic and "R-rated" for lack of a better term. Since you're presumably familiar with the content, I hope that this makes sense without you needing to preserve it as an example if you did not already do so.
Thank you!

Yeah, the standard seems to have shifted (not in the direction I'd like) quite a bit over the years. I didn't make a copy of it anywhere if that's what you meant at the end of your post. How would you convey that sort of atmosphere without going so far over the line though? On a tangentially related note, when did the shift in what was acceptable come in? I could probably send you 8 more examples from that time period, some of which had input from people who were at the time moderators. Since nobody with writing talent has attempted this topic in a number of years, a lack of examples and clarity on where the line is drawn isn't very helpful.

"The 1,000 panicked dissidents ran and hid in a garage, hoping to avoid the malevolent, narrowed red eyes of the genocidal robot general who they had just heard land nearby. Alas, their hiding was to no avail. He could hear their breathless panting from outside the garage walls thanks to his highly sensitive electronic audio sensors. Immediately, the rebels' fate was sealed. He towered over the garage with his 100-foot tall body, and with a firm sadistic smile, aimed one of the blasters mounted on his arm. He chuckled once, and then fired. When the brightness of the energy blast dissipated, all that was left was a crater in the ground."
