On the other hand, they have many times vocally stated "Please mark threads with nudity as 18+ or NSFW, so I don't accidentally check them from work"

Well you certinly set an example, although I think it was mostly confusing for the rest of us since you never said anything like "I'm sensoring my swearing so I can view the board at work". And you never asked that threads with swearing in them be labeled NSFW.

That's fine for you, but what about the rest of us.

The larger issue here is that most people would prefer the threads or links that contain graphic images to be marked in some way so we know what to expect when clicking the link.
It's become obvious from posts in the past, that the standard of our little online community is - swearing is ok, nude/graphic images should have a warning. As a part of said community, we all have a responsibility to follow this standard.


I made it quite clear in conversation last year that I quit checking the board at work due to swearing. Nobody gave a shit then.

I didn't ask on the board because I wasn't a pussy about the deal. I had a problem. Rather than bitch and moan I found a solution that worked for everyone. I gave up the thought about censoring posts for swearing after about....well, 1 day as it was a losing battle. Hell, you probably didn't notice all the times I rehosted images on Kalnet to show that we're not bandwidth leeching cocksuckers. There are multiple issues we all have with the board. My solution often results in if I have a problem with something, I just don't view/use it. Everybody wins.

You've known me all for quite some time. If I put up a link..........just expect it. I don't see why this was such a shocker. Hell, even the title conveys that I was somewhat disturbed by the link.

And who's to define what's graphic? To me, for example, a picture of a pig with 1/2 its brain blown off, flopping around, and spraying blood all over a pen isn't graphic. I mean, shit, I did shoot the thing after all. Some PETA rep? They'd want my head on a platter.

Quit being so suburban.

Im with Jason on this one. If you're dumb enough to bother checking a post made by Jason *at work* you deserve to be fired. Jason is known for posting horribly scarring NSFW things and if you arent intelligent enough to be careful about what you click on then shame on you.

Furthermore, if you dont expect a picture posted by Jason to be NSFW then you're just Naive and quite possibly missing a few brain cells. "THE JEW" is synonymous with NSFW so why are you being so pissy about this?

Hell even the title of this post gives some warning, and again, coming from Jason, that should scream "Dont Check me at work!".


Quit being so suburban.


Im with Jason. Shut the hell up already.

I really find it hard to believe that a group of intelligent people is getting so riled up over this.

I'm the first to admit, I am brand spanking new to all this, but even *I* know what to expect from a link put up by Jason....

I seriously think everyone needs to calm down a wee bit.

And Jason said....

Why did I post it? The infamous "if it burns my eyes, it burns yours." Homey J knows it far too well.


Jason has ALWAYS SINCE THE DAWN OF CREATION Posted shit like this. Why is this so much different? Dont like it, dont look at it.

Holy shit people, of all the things he has posted this is not nearly the worst. WHat about the hundreds of pictures of male ASSES? The sheer amount boggles my mind. At least this you didnt have to see it when youclicked on the post, there was a link first.

I don't like 1/2 the stuff other people post. Why should I taylor my posts to others?

Posting this stuff does let you know that it does indeed go on. I wouldn't do most of the stuff that I post. However, it is informative. So when someone says "ya know, I bet no one would ever..........blah, blah, blah, blah" you can say "actually, this weird fucker I know called THE JEW showed me this article where.........." Ignorance of a matter does not make it go away. Knowledge of said thing allows one to attempt to correct it. Why is the messenger being shot over the deliverance of the message here? Go to the link and start yelling at the dude who's a few inches shorter. I don't have any to spare so ya won't ever see me doing this. :lol:





Most of my posts are there for the simple reason that whenever I feel that I'm that fucked up............there's always some weirder fucker out there.



I've got to set goals to strive to, ya know. ;)



P.S. And a big w00 w00 for the thread that's generated more content and input than all the other ones this past month. Well, aside from that WoW one. Piece of shit. :mrgreen:

I don't understand the point of this part of the post...so you didn't like us swearing and leaching bandwidth and never did anything about it except change your own behaviour?
Why do the rest of us have to do the same thing. We have all created this community, and as such I do not see a problem with making changes to the board if the majority of people agree with them. No-one is talking about censorship here....it's just a simple warning that we're after.

Oh god, you've really got me on this one. It seems I've stumbled into a quagmire of ethics and censorship debate that I never considered....who's to say what's right and wrong in this crazy mixed up world, who am I to force my own moral judgement onto others.......
Oh, wait...I forgot, we're not a throng of faceless masses with an iron curtain shadow government pulling strings and supressing independent thought. We all know each other. Hopefully well enough to judge what one of us may find offensive and to label it as such. And if you don't know the people on the board well enough to determine if someone might find what you are posting offensive, then read over past posts and I'm sure you'll figure it out pretty quick. Otherwise...when in doubt put a small warning of some kind in the post.

Lets take a look at the title:
The Title wrote:
"Errr...........Nobody Gets Hurt From Pot?"

I'm not really sure how this is supposed to warn me that I am about to see graphic pictures of a man mutilating his own sexual organs. Maybe it's just me, but this title doesn't even hint that the images will contain nudity, let alone what could only be described as graphic and possibly disturbing surgical photo's.

The only person who seems to be getting really riled about this is Mr. "Shut the hell up" who posted above you. Maybe you should talk to him about it.

You right, we have all known The JEW for quite sometime. Personally I have not come to expect every post he makes to contain images of a man cutting off his own penis. In the past he has posted some material which is similar to this (although not really the same on any lvl) and in those cases you'll find that I also requested that he include some kind of warning as to the content.

You are 100% correct in that this post was certainly informative, and I am not saying that you can't post any penis mutilation pictures in the future. This is not censorship. No-one is going to try to stop you from posting what ever you want. Just include a warning to give people who don't want to see it the chance to do just that.
