Dear Moderators,

I have a few questions about your policy for minors in stories. This is just an query post, relating to some plans I have for future stories. Please read all the way though before making the decision to delete or not.

As Myriads said, “Stories posted on the TMF cannot contain tickling interactions between adults and minors. Such stories will be removed. And just so we are clear, a minor is defined as anyone under 18, an adult anyone 18 or older.” I need just a little clarification.

What is your policy for stories containing tickling between tickling creatures and minors? Let me clarify.

Will you allow tickling stories involving minors, under the following conditions.

1. The tickling is restricted to underarms, feet, and stomach.
2. The minor being tickled is enjoying the tickling because it is fun.
3. The creature doing the tickling is having fun, because the minor is having fun.
4. If the situation is represented in a light, and fun situation, with no possibility for abuse or injury for the minor.

And, if such a story is not allowed to be posted here, may I post a link for such a story to my website, in order to let the tickling world at large that my story is available.

I reiterate. This is just a request for policy, nothing more. I just need this information to interact with the forum on a purely legitimate basis. Please, respond to this thread, or through private messaging if you do not wish this thread to stay up.

Policy clarification:

If the target of the tickling is under 18 years of age, we will kill the story regardless if the tickling is done by people, animals, magic, machines, or whatever. The agent matters not. It's the target we judge things upon.

Don't post fictional stories with minors getting tickled. Simple.

Links:

Do not link directly to a story with minor tickling in it

Do not link to a website where most of the material involves minors.

Thank you for replying. The clarification was very helpful.
