One of Puffin's avatar's just about gave me a heart attack one day.

You may know the one... just a few weeks ago, for about a day or two before she changed it. :angel:

I don't personally mind things like that, being a 24 year old who has seen much worse, but it never fails to surprise the hell out of me...

My uni does not block abandonia.

If I disable images, like I did with signatures, it will block everything, so art forum will be blank. :blink:

But if that's only option, will do that.

ps. How do you guys like avatar which states that anal sex hurts? :blink:

in the user cp, board options theres this option:

Do you wish to view members avatars when reading topics?

if you set that to no, you'll still be able to see other images when not seeing avatars.
anyway, my 6th form college doesn't block this stuff but even if it did i'd be able to get here :P

Ditto
I quite often go on Abandonia during breaks at school and during particularly boring lessons :whistle:

Uhm,
that's why got bad greade from last test? :blink: LOL

Thanks JJXB,
I was traing to reason couple of these guys, but will do as you said.


taikara,
I have no problems with them, but someone other here at work might not like it.

Just a simple reminder to all...

Quite some pictures were deleted, because they weren't apropriate (remember the joke section...). And if some joke pictures and some words are edited, deleted, not welcome, because they aren't apropriate - then I guess the same rule should aply to the avatars and sigs.

Personaly I like most of them (and they in a way represent the person that uses it), but I agree with Anubis. There has to be a line somewhere. Where... So far the only one that suprised me a bit was the one with Britney and Madonna, although many others could also be inapropriate.

I often hope people can use common sense in those matters, but just like IRL often you end up with people who doesn't seems to care/don't use common sense.

I reported posts of members here in the past to report sexually suggestive avatars and for the record I just did the same here with that image of Britney and Madona kissing. I would have done it earlier but it's the first time I see it at the moment I am posting this message.

As much as I like to see X-rated content just like everyone else, this kind of animated picture is not intended to be seen in public g-rated board where you can expect to have 10 years old browsing freely around. It's even worse because here the avatar change for all your posts and not only the most recent ones... This mean that you could find this avatar everywhere on the whole board as long as that member posted somewhere...

I'd really wish that the rules were really strictier in this aspect. For me, only using that kind of picture should automatically make said picture removed and have your warning metter raise by 25%. :not_ok:

Sounds a bit harsh, but I do agree with Eagle and second his suggestion.

I agree that we should think of younger guests, we can have cool avatars without those images.

But We can't raise those members' warning level to 25%.....


It goes 0-20-40-60-80-100! :w00t:

Although I got 180% once k: thx to Titan....and kosta shouted at me
:ranting: <----the K
