Should we ban scat fetish? (lemmynsfw.com)

As admins, we removed the scat communities, thinking that scat was covered by the NSFL. However, some people have opposing views on this matter. What do you think about it? If people want it allowed, then we can restore content.

Edit: My answer for friends in the comments; The main reason NSFL was banned is because we currently don't have the tools to separate porn from NSFL. I'm in favor of the ban because I think its the same way in scat. If we had enough tools right now, we wouldn't be ban the NSFL either. Although, I agree that voting for niche fetishes doesn't make sense.

Edit 2: Also I don't want to think about shit anymore. I'm out 😀 https://lemmynsfw.com/post/117500

Can someone link the definition of NSFL? The one I'm familiar with would not cover this.

As a side note, I recognize that the limitations and immaturity of the tools/code will force us to make rules and exceptions we don't like. Even if it is banned, it should be revisited later when better capabilities are available

There's no real consensus on the full extent for what NSFL encapsulates. I think everyone agrees guro would fall under it, but not everyone would agree (as seen in this thread) on scat.

But here's definitions from wikitionary and the top one on ubran dictionary

(Internet slang) Initialism of not safe for life.; i.e. containing graphic or repugnant content (e.g. gore or lethal violence) that risks psychological trauma to those viewing it

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/NSFL

Not Safe For Life; when something is so fucked up that even the raunchiest people would be scarred from it
