[QUOTE="Bagpuss, post: 1125282, member: 3987"] I'ld thought I'ld have a look at some of my favourite D20 products that I've bought in light of the new "Quality Standards" so just looking at my Scarred Lands hardback for a start. [b]The Divine & the Defeated[/b] - Idra's Avatar (being the Goddess of sex, passionate love, physical affection, prostitutes and secrets) is illustrated with a bare niddle. Poraphia, a mermaid type Herald is showing bare niddle, an illustration on page 190 appears to an orgy (although not particularly graphic it certainly has a number of naked forms including two bare breasted women). There is also a Harpy bare nipples again. [b]Ghelspad Campaign Setting:[/b] Page 18, illustration of six dwarves impaled on rocks some in obvious signs of agony. Page 46 bare female nipples. Page 168 Shelzar the Pleasure City, (haven't they got a sourcebook for this place planned? That could be interesting.) discription includes illustration of sexual acts and bare female nipples. [b]Relics and Rituals[/b] - Possible excessive violence/gore, page 62, and 213. [B]Creature Collection I[/b] - Female Nipples page 102, 103, 104, 136. [B]Creature Collection II[/b] - Female Nipples page 45, 46, 47 (urgh!), 73. Is there anything to stop Wizards (if they wanted) requesting Sword and Sorcery Studios recalling and pulping all copies of these books? As far as I can see there isn't, and that's just the first five books I've picked off my shelves. There is not a thing in any of those books that offends my "standards of decency" or I would guess the communities. But its not the community that gets to decide. I've omitted the list of Violence, Sexual stuff and Prejudice stuff as it is irrelevant anyway. They clearly say they aren't limited to it so they could decide mentioning soft-cheeses is against the standards of decency if they liked and pull your product for that, as far as I can see. Not saying the would, but they could. [/QUOTE]
