how about we come up with some rules for avatars and if people don't abide then they're gone ... give us a chance.

Spike, the attempt to allow people to be mature was made then we had someone who didn't like something create a new id to do nothing but argue and try to 'prove their way of thinking' As much as I respect someone and their opinions, even if I dont agree with them, thats not the way to do it and like I said, the faults of a few are coming down on all. I took mine down as well, as innocent as it was.
What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.
b/c since there were no rules before and we just relied on people to make the right choice (which never works) LOL
I think having set rules for everyone to follow would be a good ideal and like I said if someone refuses to follow them no questions asked they're gone...
Perhaps but what is the right set of rules. Something decent. Ok what constitutes decency. Something sports related, oh a naked cheerleader is related to sports.
Thats the problem, we expect people to be mature, but some can't be.

Make em like the one I had. Jerseys only! [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
No I dont think it should have to be sports related. I liked having my picture of George playing the piano while smoking one (a cigar that is). I myself dont mind seeing the girls, I will admit that I dont want to see no guys though (and thats wrong I know, but Im a guy). So to be fair, no pictures of girls or guys that you think will offend someone. If you have to question it, then its probably not acceptable. I just get tired of all the whining and crying on here by alot of people and most of the ones who do it are new people or these youngsters trying to get somebody to mention their name. I know what I think doesn't matter, Im not a mod or an administrator. I just think there should be a few rules and if people break em, suspend em for a week. If it happens again, gone for a month and again then just block them for good. Nobody wants this to be ruined for those of us who have common sense and enjoy getting on here to talk sports and whatever else we want.
"Why so serious?"
I agree with what your saying and that is probably what its going to be. I want to put that in the rules and such though, so someone doesn't do the same old argument of "its not against the rules" or "oh why is that worse than burrheads beer bottle" (which I know the point they were trying to make)
Don't quite expect the rules to be "nazi" like, but I'll make sure that there is some clarification [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I agree constituting what is decent is the hard part but as long as everyone has to abide by the same set of rules I see no problem.
I just think avatars such as the half naked guys/girls need to be gone, and you can't just say homosexuals kissing shouldn't be allowed b/c that's discriminatory so I say no icons at all with people kissing/etc. It pisses me off we even have to regulate the icons b/c of a few people. I just think whatever the rules set they should cross all barriers if a girl can't have a half naked dude then vice versa if two guys can't be kissing in an icon then even heterosexuals kissing shouldn't be allowed. Sadly that's the only way to make it fair.
