# Its
normally done in jest though isn't it? Or does that only count if you are Sunshine Elephant? Im sure most people are being sarcastic. Its like with 'That's no moon!' You dont expect people to turn around and say 'Well no shit Sherlcock'. Although I am worried by the number of people that request source pics when soft porn has been used in a photoshop. As if there isnt enough out there already.

# When somebody says it
in response to a picture of a gorilla in a bikini, it's funny.

When it is a picture of a female boarder, I just think its a bit.. well... erm...

It just makes me uncomfortable.

# I would agree with you there.
Maybe people should be educated in the ways of board etiquette. Either through the use of of a section in the FAQ or by another means like a member created site. Incedentally, does anyone know what happened to that b3ta help site lemony was working on?

# People
get that offended/annoyed by it? Maybe someone should definately consider making people more aware of board etiquette. I would like to make it clear that I really mean 'make aware' and 'etiquette' not 'enforce' and 'rules'. I would also like to say I have never ever participated in saying I would to any picture ever.

# some do yes
It would be as if you went to a bar and every drunk guy in the place was walking up to a girl and saying "I'm desperate, lets go have sex."
Some girls encourage it, some ignore it, and some just leave the bar altogether.
We must encourage a less sexually charged atmosphere around here.

In my personal opinion, there need to be more rules about how to act on here. People come on the internet and think that because they are using a keyboard to interact with people, no normal societal "rules" apply, and that should be corrected/endorsed by b3ta.

# I just think it's bang out of order
If people want porn or something, then they should just go and look for it, i mean, it's not exactly hard to find on the web.
I can remember when lots of people were drooling over Laini and just being really pervy towards her.
It was fucking awful, and almost painful to see.

Dan is a nice guy - I've never met Liani though.

I think they are pretty happy though and that warms the cockles of my heart.

I love a happy ending. Do you know of many relationships starting on b3ta? I have read the entire history of Mother-to-be-Inferior and her husband and heard rumours of others but nothing that has been confirmed.

You do surprise me. I am amazed at the social ineptitude that some people hint at by their behaviour on here. On a related note, I would love to meet some of my fellow b3tans but I'm not aware of any bashes taking place either in Birmingham (where im from) or near enough to Huddersfield (where im at uni).

about some of the females who post their pictures on here, with the intention of getting said remarks. The males are mostly to blame, but some of the blame falls on a handful of women.

I wasn't agreeing that the few made it alright, more that because of the few people who do seem to enjoy, it'd make a lot of idots out there think it's an acceptable thing to do on the board.

I think I prefer it when people aren't too sure about the sex of other people.

Like when everybody seems shocked when they find out Eclectech is a girl.

# I don't think it does matter to most people
but I think, with regards to Bob's point, is that a lot of people assuming posters here to be your stereotypical male nerd/geek, so if there's a name that's non gender specific, they automatically assume it's a bloke, without even thinking about it.
For me, gender doesn't matter, as I'm sure it doesn't for lots of others around here.

feel like such a fool but I honestly didnt know. i had visited her website and it seemed to suggest to me that there were several people posting here under one name. I always avoided asking & causing offense. I like eclectech mostly becuase she gave me a fluffy picture after I got depressed following a massive argument with an ex.
