I'm going to be the unpopular one and point out dA has several good reasons for being strict about particularly explicit content, the primary one being that international regulations segregate pornographic and non-pornographic content rather stridently, meaning sites really have to choose which side they're on. dA doesn't want to be a porn site, as many of their users are underage, and since they won't run pornographic advertisements, they need ad deals with other companies... companies who wouldn't do business with them if they had unrestricted pornographic content.
Naturally, it's all about the money. dA needs to maintain their servers and pay their employees, and while Core memberships foot some of the bill, I'm sure it's not nearly enough. Advertising revenue is vital to the continued operation of the site, and those deals require dA to play ball and not be a porn site.
