Below is the reply I made to rol. It's relavant to both of your replies.

... I'm not the one who complained to anyone. I just stated my opinion that some avatars (a very rare number), I have to scroll past to ensure they are not on my screen.

It doesn't really bother me that much, but I was just giving an example of when it does. That asian pic a few pages back I mentioned is an exact reason why. That is clearly too much.

I am not a mod nor have I ever requested to be one. I think the mods job is to make decisions on what is NSFW and as such should PM those who are. I don't think we need draconian rules as set forth in this thread's OP, but the status quo was fine so long as mods actively knew what users changed their avatars to and ask offenders to change.

agreed, so it seems the moderators where not doing there job , BTW that was my Asian chick and the first female avatar i have used ,and all the feedback I got about it was ,  I like your new avatar from robotech heaven and spurgeonryn on my wall asking , didn't there used to be a car in your avatar , if I was told it was a little risqué and there had been several complaints I would have gladly changed it  this seems to have been a knee jerk reaction that has become divisive and i can understand you are  caught in the middle , common sense should have told them that full censorship without trying alternatives does not make for harmonious relationships.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

I need ASS on my profile picture.

Not much of value is lost here. Most avatars that don't follow these rules are utterly tasteless anyway.

 


LOL I was thinking the same thing!

No topless men (sorry gaymers!)


That is just totally awesome!


yeah I was tired of entering every thread and see half naked dudes in most avatars.   Glad that will stop now.

Sadly however, every  great achievement cant be acomplished without sacrificies (looking at Pezus Ladies Avatars). :(

Well, for the complete avoidance of any doubt whatsoever: I am not American, nor am I religious, nor am I, err, homophobic. Honestly guys, if you're gonna start with the conspiracy theory stuff you could at least do some basic research.


Closet homophobe!

Bad jokes aside, this is a pretty easy rule to follow and we're not out to get people. We merely seek to create a safe browsing experience for everyone.


indeed, i cant image the horror of seeing someone 's chest...its fucking dangerous and can seriously disturb someone 's health

So would something like this be allowed? http://26.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lx6bpjM9Bd1r0r563o2_400.jpg

...this is not even close to NSFW...


That would be allowed.

 

Edit: And I'm pretty sure avatars like ASStronauts are a large part of the reason for this rule. That is well and truly NSFW.



Americans, not knowing what NSFW is since 1492.

Hell, I even wonder if MY avatar would be allowed... /facepalm



Why is everyone using this thread to bash Americans?

Would you guys like it if I called whatever country you're from a bunch of morons?

Its quite funny, because the owner of this site is British and the admin who made this thread is British.
