You had to actually play the video to see the animals being hurt.

I'm sure you could link to a pic of a penis if it was appropriate. The point is certain people don't want to see certain things. I don't care if I see a penis, I've seen plenty, but what if my sister or a little kid is in the room with me? We don't all post from basements. If the video automatically played and you couldn't stop it, or it was a graphic picture, you may have had a point, but there was plenty of waring and you didn't have to see it if you didn't want to.

mb hates me. :(


Bleh. My only objection is the handling of the Mystic thing.


But I think we should be able to show boobies. They do it on the discovery channel. :P

As everyone probably knows, if one was to make a thread about masturbation, it would get censored immediately, locked or deleted, and the poster would get banned.
I understand this, i understand that the forum content should be suitable for anyone, the rules say this too.

Now, we still can have a thread with a video of skinning cats and dogs alive, it doesn't get locked, it doesn't get censored, no complaints. If i posted a thread with a picture of a penis, no matter how educational the thread subject would be, if there was a picture of an erect penis, the thread would get censored, locked, and the poster banned.

Honestly, don't you think that there's anything wrong with it?


Totally. I haven't been on the forums at all today. I looked over the thread that you're upset with and I have removed the offending content and locked it. You are absolutely right. However, we can't be here 100% of the time and don't read EVERY thread ever.

If you come across something like this that you feel should be deleted, you can absolutely either report the post via the report post button (this sends an email to ALL of the administrators at once) or PM / email any one of us.

Furthermore, each of us (as evidenced in this thread) is likely to act on an issue in a different way. This is something that I've proposed we work on to more "standardize" the approach we take towards moderation and discipline. Personally, I think the discussion in the dog thread could have been commenced without visual representation.

The final word is obviously up to CM at the end of the day. He can reverse whatever we (I) do and if that comes to pass I won't do too much to go against that.

Also @ Emon: That made me laugh. If we could give out gold stars, I'd give you an internet or two.

Admins are like NFL refs, we're gonna **** up now and then and people are going to ***** and moan about it. Unlike the NFL, millions of dollars are not at state. Only thing at stake is your ability to post, and if that is such a huge deal for you (or anyone else) to get up in arms about, well then perhaps you do need to go past the opposite side of the door and not to grab another bag of cheetos.

So in summary: *whistle* Personal Foul #7846 (Obi), 15 days, 3rd down

P.P.S: All admins should hereby post a yellow flag and give out bans like NFL penalties.

They wouldn't close it because of the subject matter. They would close it because some people here are too insanely immature and would prevent it from remaining a serious thread, assuming you were going to make the topic at hand a serious post in the first place.
