Default Censorship In The Story Section

Recently there has been a debate amongst myself and the moderators about some of the content in the story section. Many feel that some stories cross over into bad taste. These stories often involve kidnapping and/or rape.

While I am not a fan of kidnapping or rape I really don't like to see censorship of any speech. As of now stories that depict illegal activity are sometimes removed by the moderators when they feel that the story goes too far.

I am hesitant to allow this but understand their reasoning. The way I see it is that if we have a rating system, stories that are a little extreme are fine as long because they would be labeled as such.

I am really curious how all you guys feel about this issue. Please use this thread to voice your opinion so we can come up with firm policy.
