Giz, first off, DON'T "TEST" THE RULES! I imagine that if a person was warned and didn't change, he would be banned. It wouldn't so bad if I could directly remove avatars and say "don't do that again". _________________

Machu - you've already made that clear. Since we can't currently block somebody's avatar from showing up, we're pretty much forced to see it whether we want to or not. In the case of Riz's avatar, I didn't find it amusing at all. Since an offensive avatar pretty much requires an admin to forcibly change it (mods can't alter user stats fyi) it's your responsibility to see to it that it is changed. Now I'm just repeating myself.
And "Emotidong" was pretty freaking hilarious. Probably not appropriate for the general OHR forums, as it would have belonged somewhere more appropriate like 4chan/Giz's forum/CP-Games/HELL (it IS a forum) or whatever. |

Wait, I can change other's avatars?
...
Then why in the hell did I rant for 4 pages about something easily solved? Well, we want this to be "prevented" before it happens, I guess. _________________

Would you mind posting us an example of acceptable suggestive female Avatar, and unacceptable? For instance, is a bare ass acceptable, provided the holes are covered? What of nipples? I presume they're against the rules. Is a girl in her underwear too far? What about a girl in a t-shirt and panties? T-shirt and short shorts? Why not establish this, BEFORE we have problems with it. And yes, Fenrir, you are correct: I as a moderator cannot change avatars, and as a matter of fact, can't do ANYTHING asides move, close, and delete posts on my own forum, making it a rather pointless position, asides giving me a little bit of clout when I try to get the admins to lay down some god damned rules and standards. |

Precicely. You've got access to the control panel, and the word filter might I add. And while I can't exactly vouch for the popularity of using it, it'd make some practical sense to filter "Nigger" to "Negro" or something, specifically to satisfy some people's requests and also to tone down certain member's degrading posts.
I would also point out that it's probably not good show to throw yourself into tackling every SLIGHT instance of pornography like some kind of zealot - which is what you've been coming off as. I realize you're against it for various reasons, but a word of caution: temper your administration with a bit of tolerance, as the community as a whole is a bit more tolerant of this "miscreant behaviour" than you'd probably like to admit.
In other words, do what needs to be done, but don't let your own agenda influence your decisions. |

I was not zealous in the slightest. This thread was solved by intelligent conversation. _________________

So, Cleavage, short skirts and lots of legs? What of swimsuits? |

I'm not sure about swimsuits. Non-revealing one-pieces would be okay I guess, but I'm not an expert on the issue. _________________

Is this too revealing?
Oh, that's right, this is CP. Animu = okay. |

Alright, fine, right about that much, and no more.
Not that I'm encouraging it, but I'd accept an avatar made out of this image. _________________

This is neither the time nor the place to post this. You have your own usergroup, post it up the wazoo there.

That reminds me, I need to lose some winter weight...
If you're going to have a provocative avatar, put little black bars to cover the nipples and such. I see no problem with cleavage. _________________ "There will always be people who will tell you they hate what you made, or like what you made, and will tell you that what you did was wrong or right."
