Are you sure it was in 2002? I remember reading very depraved m/m stuff on ffnet around 2005.

I looked it up, and I was around them. Was the fic you read officially rated NC-17 or just Mature? Because what they did was eliminate the entire NC-17 category and delete everything in it. People sneak their explicit fic in by labeling it Mature, and the site moderators don't really check as far as I can tell.

This is why content bans are stupid. People will deliberately mislabel their fic to get around the ban and then people will run into things that are triggering, or are explicit when they didn't want to see that, etc etc etc. Don't ban the content, fic gets appropriately labeled, people who want to avoid it can avoid it. Win-win-win.

Oh people definitely still posted smut on there even after the NC-17 rating was removed, hence why the lemon/lime labeling back in the day as a code for 'here be smut.'

Yes, FFN banned MA (NC-17) around 2002. I remember because I had to move my sexually gory shit to AFFN.

And like others pointed out, some writers snuck in things anyway.
