vikyboss Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 (edited) I found some people using adult images for their avatar and pictures. Mr.Lightning can you please make an rule to stop these people from displaying such images. Because it is not only me, who ever looking through the forum may affected by this. Thanks. I have even seen big torrent sites has never even have showed single adult images. Thanks. such as Demonoid.com. Edited March 23, 2008 by vikyboss
dontasciime Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 You could always disable avatars in your board settings. Or close your eyes like I do.
vikyboss Posted March 23, 2008 Author Posted March 23, 2008 You could always disable avatars in your board settings. Or close your eyes like I do. thats ok, but what about a young visitor just visiting the forum, he gets seduced. I think Lightning could warn such people in general. I means just change the avatar and pictures. OR he could ban such people from posting or having account. that is the real discipline I think.
dontasciime Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 I think there are a lot worse sites that would be on a younger persons hit list to visit b4 arriving here. I see your point about being seduced as those avatars have hypnotised me into donating well over $3,000,000 so far
Jerseyguy Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 i think if Lightning was upset about it he would have said something long ago,plus i think that there are a LOT more things on the internet that could harm The Children then some avatar that is about 1in x 1in. The PC police have found us! you could do what dontasciime has said or if its your kids your worried about stand over their shoulder while they are on the computer or send them outside to play.

I think lightning could even do something. Even that 1 " thing could harm. Lets try to do some small thing and prevent people especially children. Thanks.
Altercuno Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Did somebody say seduction...? In the real world I open a tabloid paper - which children have easy access to - and see topless women. I walk through the town in summer and most of the girls are wearing less than they would go swimming in - same in the local gym I train in. Brest feeding in public places has been demanded as a right by women here in the UK, and some of the things I've seen have put me off my coco. If I object I'm labeled an insensitive misogynist, but have a girl with large bosoms in an avi and all of todays youth's being corrupted. Its a strange world. But as always the Imgburn boss has all the say round here - for this is his kingdom and he has the power and the glory, for ever and ever... 2p from me
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 Most people that visit this place do so in order to get an answer to a question - when they've got it they vanish. I'm not going to put my foot down for people that are here one day and gone the next. If the regular posters (i.e. me and the beta team) start complaining, that's when I'll put a stop to it. It's not like the images are hardcore porn, it's only what they'd see at any beach on holiday.
blutach Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 And since I get to go on holidays so rarely, I depend on the avatars to "even things up". Keep 'em! And vicky, this is not a place to peddle wowserism. Regards
Altercuno Posted March 23, 2008 Posted March 23, 2008 When you look at this... Lost in MySpace... ...it doesn't take much to see that the problems on this forum don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you'll understand that. Now, now... Here's looking at you kid. wowserism - had to look that up...
LOCOENG Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 I've changed mine....hope it doesn't offend anyone.

Being an one day visitor of this forum, I cannot expect everyone to change, that is my mistake. It is just a small suggestion. Thanks. and thanks for locoeng for changing something.

blutach Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 @loco - while I enjoy garden gnomes, I appreciated your other offering more. Regards
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 It's not like the images are hardcore porn, Sorry. My bad. *cough*
dontasciime Posted March 24, 2008 Posted March 24, 2008 Mary Whitemouse might have objected to your avatar Shamus.
lfcrule1972 Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 This forum has always been pretty much self regulating, I am broad minded but even so I see very little to offend me (well apart from Volvo's spelling, just don't ask him to spell "can't" ) Neither LOCOENG, Altercuno nor kevdrivers av's were offensive and if they were then the boss Lightning UK! would have dealt with them...... Shamus - as long as the mice involved in your avatar are consenting and disease free then again I have no problem wih it.
Shamus_McFartfinger Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Shamus - as long as the mice involved in your avatar are consenting and disease free then again I have no problem wih it. Not sure about the consenting part. Afterall, she's dead.
LOCOENG Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Shamus - as long as the mice involved in your avatar are consenting and disease free then again I have no problem wih it. Not sure about the consenting part. Afterall, she's dead. Has it been determined that she is infact a she...and not a he?
Altercuno Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 It was mmalves avi that pissed her off I think after he replied to her converting question. Try and help people and thats all the thanks you get. Most problems with kids on the net seem to come from social networking sites like Facebook & Bebo. I would have no problem whatsoever if they were shut down - whats the suicide total in Bridgend up to now 17? So far a Shamus avi goes perhaps he's trying to give he/she/it mouse to mouse resuscitation
