Ok I have finally got the news from neocities

Whats false:

Neocities isn't banning NSFW art, its there to stay on neocities, and neocities is committed to not being like the other websites in getting rid of it or imposing the same censorship rules other sites are doing.

Irl porn like whats on pornhub was never allowed on the site, which is fair bc tons of places don't host that stuff either.

Whats true:

They are making new terms for NSFW art, but what those terms will be haven't been announced yet, but one of these news rules are sites having it mandatory that sites have somewhere where you consent to seeing NSFW content. This means if your site was already doing this ( like mine ), then you're already ahead of the game basically, and are safe regarding that new rule.

In conclusion:

They aren't banning NSFW art/writing like some people have been thinking, but they are making new rules, what those will be is unknown, but from what they're saying is they're not going to be doing what other websites are doing according the staff.

I personally am going going to be on haitus still ( mostly due to this + the CC event which will put it on haitus anyway )
