Inappropriate

[Trebz]

Guys,

Please refrain from posting anymore offensive pictures on these boards, its not cool, its not funny and it offends a lot of people, including myself.

 

[old.VR-]

and tell them off for the AIDS references too

 

[Munkey-]

pics. i agree with.

the aids refrence belong to bodhi. go mess with him

*flee*

 

[Perplex]

Ahhh, we enter a deep and dark alleyway with this one Trebz

Not all the pictures are offensive (in the sense of using less fortunate people in a humourous way) - some of them are simply offensive in a bad language kind of way, as an example:

Are we talking about a total prohibition on all 'funny' pictures (for want of a better word) or just the ones that are blatently offensive?

/* edit: Just remembered the AIDs references in that, which if I'm totally honest is pretty damn offensive */

Awww man

 

[Trebz]

In particular I was refering to those which ridicule the less fortunate among us.

 

[Moving Target]

Hmm I suppose, but can we still use the STFU ones, because you know, it's not that much different from typing it and it's more fun?

 

[Munkey-]

I was thinking that trebz.

Aye, that's the impression I got. There isn't really much wrong with most of them (like the Arnie ones etc) but I did find the ones using less fortunate people a tad distasteful to say the least, which is why I never used or created any

Good policy imho, as it probably wouldn't have been long before someone dredged up KKK pictures of black people being attacked/burned with a paintshop'd/photoshop'd "HEHEH...YOU'LL DIE NEXT" emblazened across it.

 

[Embattle]

I find them OTT.

BTW all of them are getting very annoying with loads of different people posting them in every post.

i agree pics have been way over done - the odd one dug up now again is funny. Can't get rid of the aids reference tho.... it's Bodhi's trademark comment

our forums are changing so fast

I don't, it's a stupid fucking ridiculous idea.

 

[Testin da Cable]

the same ruleset that Ted holds the columnists to should apply imo. it's in a column he did iirc..I'll go check.

 

[bodhi]

I'm fucked if I'm cleaning up my insults/general language. I know lots of words. And fuck is better than most of them

 

[nath]

I like reverberate.




I don't know why.

 

[Testin da Cable]

i'd have to agree that a couple of pictures were a little ott and cutting back a tad on the taste of some of them couldnt hurt.

Abso-fucking-lutly it fucking well should.

But then, I've never had a problem with seeing humour in even the darkest corners of our collective psychies. Although I do allow for the fact that it may offend others.

fi I don't like kids swearing & I'd be real upset if mine did, but I laffed my bollocks off at South Park the Movie. ###Shut your fucking face, uncle-fucker...

Oh, & "FELCH" is one of my favourate words.

[Mellow-]

I'm pretty sure people with AIDS aren't funny, but people who have AIDS who have sexual contact with other people is rediculous.

 

[mr.Blacky]

dont tell me this forum is going political correct though some things being posted are stupid/ignorant/foolish/inappropriate/etc I still think that people would say the same things among friends. Not that any of you are friends offcourse

 

[Trebz]

I'm not asking you to stop swearing or to stop posting amusing pictures, but there is a limit to that which is tolerable. You all have common sense and one hopes, some decency, please try to adhere to it.
