I was just looking at the Master Dare List results table and it’s immediately obvious that the vast majority of participants have given permission for photos to be published. With the upcoming changes to the site, and the uncensored MDL table being moved inside the age-verified area, is now the time to stop accepting dare photos without permission to publish?
Inside the age-verified area, less people will see the photos and it’s a lot less public. Given the tiny number of non-published participants, I think it makes sense to only allow new dare submissions including permission to public those photos.

I know some people might not complete the MDL without the anonymity but…
It almost feels like cheating a little.
I suppose the question is “Why did they choose to not publish?”
If it’s because they fear being recognised then they could blur their face.
I would favour all submissions being published (so I might need to shrink that 10mb video I sent)

“Why did they choose to not publish?
Good question…
For me, MDL was a bit of fun, nearly all of them I do once a year, but meant that I had to put effort into documenting them.
Before I explain, I do recognise that the site is moving towards it not being for me and if gap widens much further, I’ll be writing a GDPR right to be forgotten request to Ed. This doesn’t mean I have any ill feeling, it just means we’re moving in different directions.
First reason is because I’m not paid; I work as a life model at least once a week, and do various other naked jobs, eg cleaner, barman, campsite receptionist, etc – I am paid to be nude, my body is a commodity/service I sell.
There are times when I do it voluntarily eg wnbr, nude swims, beaches, local naturist club, etc, but there are various codes of conduct to publishing these that are looked down by organisers. I’ve tried to explain these, but obviously not very well.
I do have nude images on insta and other sites, there are posters of me nude by life drawing organisers, but they are to promote my paid life modelling, etc.
“If it’s because they fear being recognised then they could blur their face:” – So there are 100s of nude photos out there with my face not blurred, however, as I said before, I’ve been paid for them. Also data protection/GDPR – In this day and age with google lens/reverse image look up – you can’t publish a blurred face unless it’s in a town/city that you very rarely go to. Otherwise, you are giving a very local location personal to you..
As I said no animosity, I just think differently to direction the site is going.

It is sad, but there’s also a lot of information which has expired, threads containing arguments, deleted posts (placeholders) from people who have left and hundreds of members who haven’t visited in months. We’ve also picked up some glitches and the site runs slower than it should given the server speed. A fresh start will clean up lots of stuff.

If I managed to do something (involving being naked) that I found challenging, and hopefully made me nervous and gave me a bit of a thrill perhaps, I could post it here as an attachment to a message. That way I could show people what I’d done, and maybe posting it would be part of the challenge I set myself. I expect I’ll do that at some point. I would hide my face, which I used to do by copying some of the image background across it. I’d delete the version which had my face visible and that version would almost certainly never be seen.
If I wanted to do the same but be more competitive, or follow a gradual build-up of more challenging dares, or just be part of something fun, I could send Ed the visible and the obscured version and he’d post the obscured one in the dares table. The difference is that I’d be losing control of the un-obscured version, which is something I’ve steered clear of.
If I wanted to do something naked, challenging, thrilling, nerve-wracking but only wanted to show Ed and nobody else, I’d still have to send him the unobscured version so that he could put a tick in the table for me. I can’t personally think of a reason to do that. I’m not saying there isn’t a reason, just that I can’t think of one. I have no problem with leaving the unpublished ones out of the results table. The table is where folks show each other they’ve completed the dares. If there is a demand for a “just show Ed and nobody else” service, could that be a forum instead? Then people (only age-verified community members) could describe what they did instead of showing everyone, and still email the photo to Ed. He could signal that he’d seen it by liking the post. From the very low number of non-publishers, it doesn’t look as if it would be much work to deal with the occasional email, but if it’s just yet another thing to pay attention to that takes yet another bit of precious time to deal with, then I suggest ignoring this paragraph and withdraw the service!

I don’t mind either way.
It’s interesting to see how others have completed the list but do I need to see it. No not really.
Ive said it multiple times before I don’t care about the photos but I’d love read the experience behind the photo. Like a set of questions of feelings, preparation and stuff for the photo.
To me the list has been a challenge to set myself to see how far I will go. Seeing the pictures that other have taken have helped me to get ok with taking the photos in different scenarios.
There have been forum posts asking questions about others completing some of the challenges like the receiving a delivery dare.
We have had a lot of conversations here about peoples feelings and if they could do challenges or not.
It would be interesting for those I’m sure to see an experience details from others who have completed it more than a photo so they can see how easy the challenge actually was to do in the end.
I’m all about the story. Not sure if my 2 nighttime walk descriptions gave that away 😁

For me, it’s partly about body acceptance and positivity as well.
I’ve helped with answers about how a couple of the dares were done and what they felt like.
Several years ago, when Ed posted the delivery dare in the original list, I flatly dismissed it as something I would never be able to do.
Several years later I did. Had I not been able to experience the empowerment and body positivity by clicking up the courage to start posting pictures of naked dares, I’d still be where I was 5 years ago, and I wouldn’t be answering how dares are done.
So please don’t dismiss as irrelevant in your answers what is a vital part of the process for others.

Ed asked a question and I responded with my personal opinion. I don’t care if others publish their photo or not, That’s my opinion and just because it differs to yours doesn’t make it wrong or something you can tell me not to say.
If it’s vital to you that you share proof to everyone, great that’s part of the conversation to be had but it doesn’t make my opinion any less valid. I have shared with blurred or masked face and would continue to do so but I dont personally think it makes sense to put a block on people taking part just because they don’t want everyone here to see them.
Some people will feel ok sharing proof with Ed but not with everyone. That doesn’t mean they didn’t complete the challenge. There are all sorts of reasons why people might not want to share with everyone if they do the challenge they get a tick in my mind.
I was happy to go with the majority on this one but just giving my own personal opinion like you had previously.
Right now I feel very weird about your last comment trying to tell me what I’m allowed to have as an opinion. I didnt think the community was like this. Had me second guessing my being here all day and that’s why it took me so long to respond to this.

I don’t really like the dare side of the site myself. I’m only commenting because I’m concerned to see a misunderstanding between 2 regular contributors here. I have not really noticed this kind of discontent on here much, and I feel like I know both of you to some degree.
I think it is misunderstanding to be honest.
I don’t need to see anyone’s pictures, I may be an oddity here because I’m actually quite uncomfortable with pictures of naked men, but I’m still here.
I understand the body confidence side of John’s comment, but not really how 1980’s comments about preferring the story over the photo evidence caused any upset?I want to get the 2 of you to play nice. I don’t believe any offence was meant.

Thank you for clarifying. It didn’t read like that, but written down rather than spoken, you can’t always define intent.
It came across as rather dismissive of others opinions and needs, I am happy that wasn’t the case, we are all different 🙂

<p style=”text-align: left;”>Not sure how to respond to this right now. I have tried to write a reply a few times but it just gets argumentative. So I’ll leave it for now as I don’t agree with your original response to my message and I don’t agree with your recent response but in the interest of moving on I’ll leave it there. And say let’s just move on..</p>
