I'm okay with this, I'm not sure about dividing the shipper categories, and I'm not sure how the yuri fans will feel about it being in with yaoi since it is less popular and would be hard to find among the yaoi prompts (though that means more categories still) but I would be personally okay with this and I am happy it is dividing things by explicitness and gender preference rather than individual kink, as I object strongly to the latter.
I agree that oral is not a kink, oral is just sex. Similarly I think kinks that are really quite regular sex acts could probably stay in mature sections but when we get to stuff that may squick (felching, lactation, whatever) put it in kink. We advise playing safe but to be prepared to put up with some crossover and blurring at the boundaries as well. And to chill, because if it's moderated at least a prompt in the wrong place can be moved.
I think the people who are complaining about the ages need to stick to the non-mature sections if they cannot scroll past the prompts that involve Usopp, Luffy, and Vivi, they are legal in a lot of countries and nobody complains about this elsewhere in the fandom (that I've seen) so why the hell should it be a point on a kink meme? I know that there are people who are going to hit me about the Chopper, but it makes a safer environment for those of us that will write the porn too if he is in kink rather than mature and people can stop bashing, as that is clearly a sticking point for many people. I personally feel that he should be allowed in romance as there's nothing wrong with him giving Robin flowers or something and people should accept that compromise. I'm honestly not sure about Brook. I don't see people complaining about him but I think he should be treated the same as Chopper for shipping purposes because if fluffy reindeer porn is kink then so is skeleton porn. I don't think Franky squicks people so much as they just don't like him, but i'd slap a 'if in doubt/handle with care' in the info at the top when it comes to using anything regarding his cyborgness as well as the human-looking devil fruit users powers.
Can I suggest making the threesomes+ category a "Mixed bag" category and including mixed yaoi/het requests, threesomes, moresomes, nakamashipping, genderbend, crossdressing. Anything that blurs het/gay divisions or gender divisions or involves more than two people. I suggest that we allow Brook and Chopper for nakamashipping as it makes no sense to have the perfect category for it and then rule them out, although the mods can frown at people who abuse this.
One more - how about a crack/ecchi category for general insanity and naughtiness that maybe doesn't feature actual sex or pair? With all characters allowed. I think there are requests that might fit into this that won't easily go anywhere else. And I personally feel that covers everything.
I also suggest a policy of warning if you post a fill that contains something that wasn't made clear in the prompt. Sometimes that happens. Probably also a good idea to check with the OP first but I think most people do that.

What exactly would go in this category? When I hear ecchi, I think of dirty old men (Brooke?) or teenage boys obsessing over panties and boobs (Chopper obeessing over Robin's boobs?). And crack... out of character?

I see odd naughty prompts that aren't pairing like dealing with Brook's panties thing or other things linking Chopper with sex without any indication that he's in a relationship, and I wondered if they truly belong in kink. Crack could go in gen or whichever pair, but sometimes it has sexual references without being pairing. It's not deeply important, it might only be a small category, just those were the last things I could think of that might not fit anywhere obvious.

I think he causes less fuss because a)he's not underage and b)he's human. Just a dead one.
But yeah skeleton porn probably wouldn't belong in with the "mainstream" stuff either. I like your suggestion of allowing him and Chopper in the romance section as long as there's no sexual content, since nobody's complaining about PG fics with either of them anyway.

How do people feel about these then?
