Editing LiveJournal (section)

===Adult content===
While LiveJournal permits adult-oriented content, it is a user's responsibility to mark content as inappropriate for minors. There are two types of adult content:<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.livejournal.com/support/faq/281.html |title=Adult Content |publisher=Community.livejournal.com |access-date=2012-10-11 |archive-date=2012-10-30 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121030215437/http://www.livejournal.com/support/faq/281.html |url-status=live }}</ref>
* Adult concepts: This rating applies to content that is not explicitly graphic, but may contain things that are of a mature nature and could be inappropriate for anyone under the age of 14 years.
* Explicit adult: This rating applies to graphic and explicit content (depicting nudity, sexuality, violence in images and language) that is appropriate only for adults, and is not suitable for viewers under the age of 18 years.

Labeling as adult material does not convey in any way that this content is considered obscene, in the legal definition of the term. Such content should be marked in order to be shown only to users whose birth dates on their user information page indicate that they are over the age of 18. At the same time the user itself can set own preferences in viewing adult content settings in order not to receive such materials. All users are defaulted to ''Moderate Filtering'' in the ''Safe Search Filter'', but can change this option.

It is written in the LiveJournal rules that if the content is reported as being offensive or inappropriate, LiveJournal has the right to flag, restrict access, or delete it at any time without notice.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.livejournal.com/legal/tos.bml#t13 |title=LiveJournal Rules |publisher=Community.livejournal.com |access-date=2012-10-11 |archive-date=2011-08-16 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110816041959/http://www.livejournal.com/legal/tos.bml#t13 |url-status=live }}</ref>
