the stepping isn't a punishment

it's to try and make you undestand that we're serious about no NSFW images posted inline.

You are of course welcome to go and post on 4rthur.

Well, I will have to for the next 4 hours or so won't I?

I think perhaps that the problem I have is that this just isn't really NSFW, is it? Id doesn't look like porn, not even from across the room.

I mean, I've been posting here for a month or two and it seems that, of late, things have become a bit weird.

I am not sure how the rules work any more - There's a picture of Lord Manley of Ven down there (not that he'd care) and that's okay, but Poisoned Monkey is modded for putting an entry into the 'How offensive can you be in under 5k' comp because it is too offensive?

We just need to know where we stand, it is a bit hard to have decent threads if people are scared of what they are posting. After all, it is B3ta.

I know we have to have a level of censor and I complained bout that burning kittwen and the guy who posted people he'd towed that day, but we need to have consistancy. Based on previous posts I believed this to be fine, but it evidently is not.

If I don't know where the boundaries are (and frankly I did not think this was anywhere near them) then how can we post?

What's next, CDCs?

Not moaning about this incident, just worried for the future - I can take a naughty step or two, but I'd like to see the board live on and these inconsistancies are pissing people off.

No point moaning, but please think on it.

stuff that looks like porn = no

i.e the image you just posted.

crudely drawn cocks don't look like porn.

These are the rules of the board - and they have been since the board started.

Completely off-topic

but are we likely to see links to the Links Board either at the top of the main board or in a decent spot in the front page? I have to go trolling down through the old news on the FP to see it... as I'm far too lazy to, a. bookmark or b. type the word 'links'... oh the effort!
Seriously though, it would be nice, loads of good stuff on there not getting the exposure it could, if properly incorporated into the site.

thank god for that question

I'd much rather spend energy on improving the site than this crap.

Yes. The links link is going to happen. Soon. We have a new nav bar in demo and it'll be pushed live soon.

I can't tell you how soon tho. But soon.

What about board stats?

Those were fun.

broken

personally I don't miss them so I'm not going to pressure Robtoo to fix them.

You are welcome to mention it to Robtoo the next time you see him on the board.

But he does know about the issue - many have already mentioned it to him already.

Ah, well if he's already heard of it

it's not really worth it to badger him

And I don't agree with you

What don't you agree with

CDC's look like porn or a lady's arse does?

(

abandonnship, Tue 7 Mar 2006, 17:03, archived)

oh well

I'm afraid it doesn't really matter if you agree or not.

This is how we run the site. I believe it's for the best for the majority on the site.

If you don't agree - then vote with your feet - there's literally millions other sites you can post on.

(

rob, Tue 7 Mar 2006, 17:06, archived)

That's all very true.

I'm starting to find the fun is going out of this site.
The shame is that I was considering donating again.
I'll put my money to better use.

oh my god - I take back everything I said just in case you might give us £5

(

rob, Tue 7 Mar 2006, 17:12, archived)

Well I think it was £50 last time ?

and I thought a similar amount every now and again when I can spare it.
But if you are going to get all cunty about it !

Your donations are very useful. They pay for the server that runs this board.

But that doesn't mean I can't be vaugely sarcastic if you say you don't like the site much these days.

I just try my best to help run the site for best of everyone. And that includes stopping people posting inline NSFW images.

Which I know is absolutely the right thing to do, with or without your support.
