Food for Moderator and General Poster Thought

[_Dr. Shades]

Maybe Shades could post some guidelines that would give posters an idea of what works and what doesn't before they post.

Celestial Forum: Rated G.
Terrestrial Forum: Rated PG to PG-13.
Telestial Forum: Rated R.

Sub-guidelines in case the above isn't enough:

• If it can get someone fired from his or her job, don't post it.
• If it can make someone lose his or her appetite, don't post it.
• When in doubt about either of the above, don't post it.

I don't think his Louvre example (as well intentioned as it was) worked too well.

Truer words were never spoken.

I guess I projected a little when I (falsely) assumed that everyone was as interested in adhering to the "spirit of the law" as I am. Instead, it looks like people are far more interested in pushing boundaries and finding loopholes. That being the case, please adhere to the G/PG/R system.

Umm Shades, most of us are no longer believers because we are the types that are interested in pushing boundaries and finding loopholes. Why would you expect otherwise?

Great! I can work with that. I've never been big on posting objectionable material, anyway. Maybe, Shades, you can get Ludwigm to agree to this as well and lift the ban?

Ludwigm, if you can work within these simple rules, perhaps all can be in agreement and you can have your images back (just hoping). You should realize that Shades has a very tough job. He provides this venue for all of us to interact and maintains it without ANY compensation. I don't think he is picking on you as an individual. He's just concerned that images might just pop up here when people at work are accessing the board and those images might cause serious repercussions with those people's employers. We all are her because of his good graces. Think about it.

Homosexuality is an abominable sin.

And once again BC steps in to discuss his 2nd favorite topic: homosexuality.

Not sure what the hell is has to do with the OP .... unless BC is simply trying to demonstrate what bigotry looks like.

Homosexuality is an abominable sin.

This is a good illustrative point. The above statement is personal opinion and protected under guidelines of free speech. However, if it added that homosexuals were to be subject to punishment or discrimination, it would be breaking two of the above discussed principles.

Please ask him!

Ludwigm, if you can work within these simple rules

I used to work inside the boundaries of more simpler ones. You know, socialism has them...
I can approach anyway.

and you can have your images back (just hoping).

The hope dies in the last time. (Hungarian saying)

You should realize that Shades has a very tough job.

Yes I did.

He provides this venue for all of us to interact and maintains it without ANY compensation. I don't think he is picking on you as an individual.

I don't think anything. I see the result only.

He's just concerned that images might just pop up here when people at work are accessing the board and those images might cause serious repercussions with those people's employers.

As I phrased many way, many times (without quoting PMs, the holy cow ) there was about breasts and genitals. No more, no less. Even David's one. Or his two member. Or his three member. We can count the limbs differently...

THERE WERE NOTHING ABOUT WORKPLACES.

Sometimes, I must hide this site, if my wife is present.
See:

Since she became a TBM, she doesn't read any books, except faith promoting ones. (Not necessarily Mormon ones... miracles, proselytizeds, magdalens and such)
The whole internet is "your bunch of lies" for her (read you as me...), because they are antimormon garbage. I handle her emails from the church and from other members.

As an ease, my youngest stepdaughter (35...) is a partner in discussions.
She has the advantage of one generation...

You're absolutely right. Lesson learned. I guess we must go back to the letter of the law.

I don't know, who was the moderator who noted it. And don't care.

There were TWO REFERENCE TO PICTURES visible and safe for work at viewtopic.php?f=1&t=27026&start=42
One of them was deleted as a whole (without any reminiscense - link... ???)
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... -World.jpg
VISIBLE ON viewtopic.php?f=1&t=27026&start=42,


HERE (nsfw...).


The other was marked as NSFW: [#img] http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/c ... G13_n1.jpg[/img]

[_ludwigm]

Double standard.

Or triple. Or multiple. As many as posters...

Please explain away!

I was wrong about them being safe for work. Therefore, they're now in the Telestial Forum.

It was a double-link to the same picture.
