Oh, yes, I know, I was just talking about any future butt-related issues...

in any case the butt display pic is more "polite" than the lesbian one...

I had to write down my thoughts immediately after seeing Ashley's post.

Specktren Wrote:Now, I am not disagreeing BUTT (pun intended)

There is a HUGE (again, pun intended) difference between a cartoon and a girl posing sexy. Just because a kid sees humor in Bart Simpson mooning people, doesn't mean it's okay for them too look at a girl stickin her booty out for the world to see.

One is intended for humor, the other is intended for other things. So while a valid point, you have to realize that there is a difference between the two.

The difference between humor and the difference between other things.

Has anyone seen my photoshops of Cordelia/ There was one which I posted many weeks ago, and one which I just posted recently. Both are from the side view, but you can clearly see the breasts of that woman.

The point I am trying to get at is; how does someone judge whether or not that a picture is made for humor purposes; or for other purposes/

Does a picture really speak a thousand words/

---

How about pictures of women clad in bikinis at the beach/ Is that censoring the women enough because her nipples are covered by a piece of clothing yet you can see a good amount of her cleavage elsewhere/

You can tell the difference between humor and soft pr0n. Your picture would be considered art. Bart mooning someone would be considered humor. Dizzy's AV would be considered soft pr0n.

I understand the point you are trying to make, I wasn't disagreeing with you, just simply pointing out its hard to compare a cartoon showing its butt for humor to a woman who is showing her butt for other reasons.

RE: Avatar Issue
I know, I wasn't trying to bring down your points as well.

I was trying to get others to ask themselves the questions that I asked myself; what is the clear definition of what is what.

I do agree with you, that Dizzy's avatar is soft pr0n, but what now/

Do we just leave it alone because it is not breaking the rules [although a fine line measure of it] or do we do something about it because someone found it offensive [again, the picture being a very fine line between breaking the rules and following the rules]

I really don't care what happens. If Gamer doesn't see an issue with it, it shouldn't be an issue unless it's truly offending someone.

RE: Avatar Issue
Well I received some PMs related to it as some members felt it was inappropriate.

I won't mention names unless they want to publicly state their opinion here. But as I said, even if I decide to allow such avatars I'll see what I can do to accommodate those who may be offended by it.

As of now, the only solution I can find is for those members to disable the display of avatars, however that would block every avatar, not just Dizzy's. But it works..

I'll admit it, okay, Sorry Dizzy, but My parents would pound my Face into the ground if they saw that, and I'm actually struggling to leave a pr0n addiction, so it doesn't help.(Having that Dragged back into my mind)
I guess I'm in the Minority here, being the only Christian, but the last one Almost got me Shot.
Again, nothing specifically against Dizzy.

Drizzt, Religion is important, if anyone gives you any kind of crap because it goes against your beliefs they will be warned. That is something that will not be tolerated. I can understand why you would say something, thank you for coming forward and explaining.

There is ways to get around it, you can turn off AV's for the whole forum. Or maybe you and Dizzy can have a chat about it and come to an understanding. We don't want anyone here getting in trouble.

RE: Avatar Issue
I told GaMeR that if censoring it would be ok, as in blurring the "rump" out but he never told me yes or no. I'm an Atheist, but I respect your views, and also, your breaking of the addiction (I, myself, have not decided to "retire" from that). So post here if you think that censoring it will help, or else, maybe we can reach a middle-ground.

Also, no need to apologize, mate. It's just a forum ;)
Just let me know personally next time via PM.
