can we use middle fingers in our sigs/ava?

sometimes i cant believe how much we've whitewashed and covered over the past of this forum by becoming more and more strict. back in the day we could have a sig that said "FUCK" and pictures of nude people with jus little dots covering up what was there. that was probably a result of skuzzys rules which still kick your ass. nowadays bam is complaining bcause he thinks panties are slightly see-through, and people freak out when they see a bad word in sigs.

we can say shit, we can put shit in our signature, isnt that word about as bad as ****?

how about fag? we dont censore fag, thats just like saying faggot which IS censored.

dick isnt censored, cock is

words that mean the same thing and have the same effect can be used, but fuck cannot?

can we all just not be so restricted? this doesnt have to just be swearing and close to nude woman, its just all around you guys have become so much less tolerant of things it baffles me.

It's going to be a nightmare censoring all that. ;)

Disallow, yes, but enforcing it is gonna be slightly hard. Some people are offended my pictures of cleavage and tight butts in lycra and all that, do we remove those too?

You people need to stop making threads about this crap. If you need to think "I wonder if i can have this." Then don't use it, because chances are it will cause a shit storm.

I think censoring is retarted, I have an idea, how about we get a hack that allows you to enable/disable the language filter, and put an 18+ warning in the assylum so you can do w/e you want. We might lose a couple o people, but who cares we don't need 12 year olds anyway.

you have to agree that your 13 before you join the forum though..dont you?

you also agree something about offensive content or so i recall/remember. i havent joined any boards in a while.

if either of these are true, then we should be allowed to post cuss words and/or put them in our sig without having to bleep it out. we're all big boys, we can take minor minor minorly offensive words.

I personally think the asylum should allow EVERYTHING...except absolute porn. I think the only people that should be allowed to enter the asylum is people who joined as 13 or over. Just add a hack or something (if possible) that makes it viewable to only the ones who joined as 13 or over...or possibly even a higher age, if that's possible.

OT about the finger... Its splattered all over tv. They hardly blur that shit anymore.

Fuck censorship. By the age of 13, the typical teenager already swears, and has seen all this bullshit... Censorship is fucking useless, and I hate it.

Just because I'm strict :( I didn't really know the line, FYI. I wanted to know what it was -- which I discovered ;) I may not like that it's allowed, but I never warned the guy, now did I? I don't like the middle finger for what it stands for, and I don't like the idea of letting profanity into sigs and avis when we outlaw them in posts -- and maybe especially.

:rolleyes

I lived in Germany, and I remember, at least, some protection when children are most likely to watch TV. Oh! You should be careful on the autoban! It's more dangerous when idiots get on it who just want to go fast.

I agree.

Same in Greece. And since we have about 10.000 more beaches and 50.000 more islands than Germany, it is obvious why the Germans visit Greece when they want to see the... real thing:D:D:D

you have to agree your 13 to join forums right?
going on the internet your risking your stupid little 11 year old eyes and seeing words like "fuck" and seeing nearly naked woman (and even nudes altogether if you leap over to gen xtreme :p). so why are we covering up things that they'll just see EVERYWHERE ELSE on the internet?
