Adult themed avatars/tokens.

Hello. Some friends and I are going to try out a Cyberpunk 2020 campaign. Since this is a world which is adult in nature, I was wondering what Roll20 thinks of avatars and tokens that depict some level of nudity. Some of the tokens/avatars show topless women. I know it says in the guidelines in the Community Code of Conduct that discussions on Roll20 can't post anything explicitly sexual, but is this also the same for the games/campaigns we play? I thought I would ask first if it's allowed before using those images.
I would err on the side of caution given the following; This is a copy/paste of the Roll20 General Community Guidelines: Discussions on Roll20 should always maintain a tone of respect and civility. To promote a welcoming environment for everyone, we ask that you refrain from: Personal  attacks or name calling Passing  judgment (be it on issues ranging from gameplay to lifestyles) Inflammatory or abusive language (e.g. communication with the intent of provoking others) Posting sexually explicit or extremely violent content Distribution of someone's personal information Engaging in or encouraging illegal activities (examples including, but not limited to: piracy, phishing, fraud, etc.) Trolling, overt or passive aggression, spam Abuse of the Report function Violating area specific guidelines Infringement of this section is subject to moderation action as outlined by the Moderation Policy. And this is a copy/paste from the Terms and Conditions under the Use of Roll20: Post or otherwise submit any topic, name, material or information that is child pornography, defamatory, excessively violent, harassing, inappropriate, indecent, lascivious, lewd, obscene, profane, racist, unlawful, or otherwise objectionable.
Well, that's what I was wondering. If it's not allowed on the forums, if it was in the games. Even though the game would be private and everyone playing is aware of the images, I thought it would be best to ask anyway.

Are you asking if it's OK to use some image in your own personal game that is not being streamed or published in some way? Among friends? It's your own business entirely. In general, if a commercial module has intense or triggering imagery or themes, either the publisher or Roll20 will indicate this with a disclaimer. Certainly any person intending to run a game professionally or with strangers should also issue a disclaimer. This is mentioned in the guidelines for finding a group. But it's also politeness and common sense. And be aware that if you were to somehow spring unwanted imagery upon an unwarned person, that person would likely have recourse to an official complaint. Again: common sense. The forums are a different matter, since they are open to all and should be held to a level of decorum that the owners see fit for the purpose. If you have any doubts or concerns, the best place to get an answer would be a  Help Center Request . Be sure to clearly state where and under what conditions you intend the images to be displayed. And to whom. My own disclaimer: I do conversion contract work for Roll20 but am not an employee and do not speak for them in any official capacity,

Yeah it's a game for me and my friends. It's not a commercial module, it's a basic campaign I came up with. All of my friends are fully aware of the adult nature. " The forums are a different matter, since they are open to all and should be held to a level of decorum that the owners see fit for the purpose. " I see, that's what I was asking for, if there was any sort of difference there. I will go and ask again on the help centre request, thanks. *Edit* Well, I got a response and they said I could do what I like, so long as it's private and everyone involved knows it will have these adult themes which they do, and if they are O.K with it, which they are. I just wanted to be sure what was allowed and what wasn't for Roll20.
