I'm very upset about whats going on here
Joe

huh???

I step out for dinner and Joe's thinking about leaving?

I completely agree.

I just voiced my displeasure to the new coward moderator.

Aw crap, not again....

Just for the record, I personally was NON-OFFENDED by Milkey's avatar.

Ken

See you guys on the bird!

problems out of thin air....

i 2nd that!

Unfucking believable. Now they're erasing Z's posts completely.

Don't bolt - forgiveness is a virtue and Mikey is Mikey.

I'm offended that Mike would come on here, act in an inappropriate way, and pick fights with the moderators. It's not the moderators job to babysit members.

Noooooo!!!

he was picked on first...i think, but we're all grown men here! quit this already!!!

hahahahaha

Oh my GAWD Jenny *IS* the Dragon Lady!

She was so sweet... and then they gave her a kingdom... and now she buys a longer rack, and bigger spikes..



I don't post crude stuff, it's irrelevant... but I don't complain, I just read the message, and move on..

I wasn't around to see the offending avatar, and agree that a PM should probably have been sent, BUT, Mike you push the envelope, you always do, every time, then complain when someone says something about it. Rules are PG13, someone squeezing a chick's pussy isn't pg13, never has been. Bare tits aren't PG13, either.

From what I saw, he posted the inappropriate avatar first. Mike is at fault here.

are YOU SURE?

members can delete their own posts

I agree.

That was way inappropriate for the moderators to call someone out in public. It's asking for trouble. And then the last post SAID that we have no rights here.


Pinky lifter smiley here*

Its a load of crap.

I doubt "The Bird" would allow the pictures.

Unless Z has some special powers, it would have gone in the 'recycle bin'.

So, yes, I'm sure.

Huh?

rack... the thing they stretch you on... spikes... the things they pierce you with...

The avatar is besides the point. Almost.

Yeah. It was a little immature. But the moderators are here to keep the peace. Not make attacks public AND personal.

They could've at least said please.

This 2 shall pass
I feel better already

It's in the recycle bin. I just looked.

Ohhhh!!! I got ya.... my mind was in the gutter. Got it.. rack and spikes.

Thanks.

This shit is getting real old. No matter what we (the admins) do someone here is going to tell us how we are wrong for what we do.

Its like the Lord of the Flies around here...


It was great here in the beginning. No rules, and a fairly open forum with no restrictions on language or content.

When any group grows past a certain member threshold, anarchy will not work. Someone has to set limits.

But now we have grown to the point where we HAVE to implement a set of rules for the members.

The 914Club has grown up. Are you going to grow up with it, or are you going to continue to act like a petulant child?


My opinion... that and 50 cents will get you a can of soda out of a vending machine.

So wait Was that a pro admin statement or anti admin statement. Don't answer that.

I agree. There has to be growing with any group that stays together for any period of time. But nobody should have to be made an example off.

I never saw a therad say that we have new rules to live by. I wont have any probablems with them no matter what there are here. Unless PM's were exchanged Mike was fallowing accepted practices. If you needed to chastice him I did not need to see or hear it.
Joe

Wholeheartidly

Clay, you are wrong.

Other than the fact that a PM should have been done...

show me how someone is cast away by this comment?

Please change your avatar. You are in violation of rule 11. 11) Avatars and posted pictures have to be PG-13. This incluces pictures attached to signatures. Thank You.

We've all been called out on SOMETHING that we've done before, and sometimes it happens in a public place, sometimes even in the wrong manner...but if what was being called out, was, in fact, against the rules, then it's a pointless defense.

The PG13 avatar rule has been a rule for about 18 months, so folks claiming it's a new rule are sadly mistaken.

I can't tell you how many times the topic of offensive avatars has come up.

It's the same every single time...

"But we want and need to post these images"
"Some of us don't want to see them, though"
"Turn off your avatars, then"
"Then we can't see 97% of the avatars that are fun"

It's like a re-run before the new episodes come out.
Totally predictable.

Please give it up and follow the rules...It's not hard.

Clay, you are wrong. Somebody

In what way am I wrong?

If you are going to say that, tell me what you think. A statement with no explanation tells me nothing.

WOW! This is REALLY getting old!

Fine. We have a sandbox for what? Do people with, shall we say more clearly refined sensitivities, than the rest of us HAVE to go where they suspect, or even expect, this sort of thing? I think not. If you're offended by what's there, DON'T GO THERE! If you just have to go there, use the tools you have to avoid what you don't like? There're WAY too many people in this country, both on the left and on the right, who know what's best for the rest of us, and want to save us from the harm we might do to ourselves.

BTW, last time this happened, It was my understanding that ALL off topic posts were to be made to the sandbox. Ain't happening! Topics that are not even remotely 914 or 914 event related are close to outnumbering on topic posts on the first page a LOT of the time. There are more than a dozen right now! If you're gonna select the rules you enforce, where's the sense of having any rules at all? End of Rant.

Oh, BTW, I am personally offended by the "REAL" meaning of acronym used in Clay's avatar ................ The Cap'n

more drama here than women's figure skating... more boobs too

mike's avatar was pushing it, I knew when I logged on this morning and saw he changed his avatar to one of his old ones, someone would say something...

it should have been a PM, but that's neither here nor there... that's nitpicky to complain that it wasn't

now, everyone, unstick the panties from their ass... and let's move on.. again...

I can explain that to my 8 year old niece that it means "Fouled Up Beyond All Repair" and have her mother just smile at me.

I can't explain it when she tells her mother that "Uncle Clay was looking at bouncing boobies on the internet"......


But I will change it if you are offended.

As much as I love a good set of tits, the rules are few and easy to follow here. What is the need to have it in your avitar.

Man this shit is getting old.

Oh yeah, happy Valentine's day to my 914 - the reason we are all here!

Admins have asked to keep nudity out of avatars (and posts) for years and years... nothing new

There's tons of other places on the net where you can see naked boobies (I know, cause I've got them all bookmarked ) but this is not one of them...

I don't see anyone complaining about their freedom-of-avatars, bitching about censorship, deleting-posts-conspiracy-theories and whatnot on rennlist or pelican, do you?

This forum/board/whateveryouwannacallit is still one of the most (if not the most) high tollerance ones around, and you damn well know it...

If you're such a big guy that you think you can push the boundaries, don't start crying like a 4 year old when the admins call you on it

So bottom line, if you feel "offended" by the admins go wank on pelican or rennlist and see how long your crap lasts there...

mutually agreed.

a PM would have sufficed. if in fact it didnt, then go to step 2 or whatnot....

exhaust procedure before being rash.....
