That's more or less the site-wide moderation policy of Reddit, and it's caused large portions of it to become vile cesspools representing the worst of the Internet. In fairness, not every individual subreddit has such lax moderation standards, but I can't imagine that's the direction Bingo wants to take CP.

I also realize that some legal stuff like porn and extreme violence are banned on CP. Maybe something like "is the material socially acceptable in public?" For example, I can see plenty of material similar to the stuff in that thread when I go to the mall or turn on the TV. So why is it that it should be banned on CP?
I think you're getting closer with this comment, but I'd suggest a better standard should be "is this topic safe for work?" The occasional image or video safely hidden behind a NSFW tag is fine, but that entire thread is not work safe.

I personally find it a bit perplexing that CP has a site-wide filter that bans curse words like f--- and s--- because apparently those cross the line but there's no problem at all with posting thousands of borderline softcore photos of scantily-clad women.
