EVERY kid has sometimes seen a boob or more.
There's nothing wrong with a boob per sé. It would be something else if the girl/guy is depicted in sexual activity or something. But what the hell is wrong with a boob or even a "penis" or "vagina"? We all have at least one of both (please note: at least! ).
The moderated pics don't show nothing at all, and if I would look at those at work nobody would even look up (In fact if they were REAL porn my boss would probably come watch it with me).
The picture shows "skin" nothing more, so what the fuck is wrong with that even for a 10 year old.
Are we only allowed to post pics of a "hot shmup" chick if she's wearing a burka?
Personally, I agree with you. But I suppose we need to remember that a lot of users of this forum are in America. Remember the fuss over Janet Jackson's breast in the Superbowl? No one would have given a shit if that had happened in, say, the Champions League final over here in Europe (not that we have any stupid half time shows in our sports events, but that's another matter ). People would have laughed about it and then forgotten about it. But in America it was, for some reason, a really big deal.
I wouldn't even condense it to that, as plenty of Americans feel that the whole fuss over that is blown far out of proportion...and don't even get me started on the whole "Spongebob supports the gay agenda" snafu.
In terms of my opinion on this whole debate (as if it matters), I really don't care if images are required to be linked to, as anyone who wants to can still get at them, and those who don't can refrain (and load other stuff on the page faster). In terms of cursing, I don't curse myself and could care less if such language vanished off the face of the earth, but realistically I do hear this sort of stuff every day...one forum I go to elsewhere has a "guideline" about it, which states that cursing is allowed so long as you don't constantly use it, so as to saturate the forum with it...don't know how open to that this community might be.

Yeah, I know not ALL Americans are idiots But because of the fuss made about things like this by some, I expect businesses are going to be a lot more strict on this sort of thing, and people may be more likely to get in trouble for it.
First off, let me explain myself once again...man I grow tired of this.
The links to the pictures was sort of censorship. I do agree that links do provide a faster browsing and all, but then the discussion of "worksafe" images was brought to attention right afterwards. Landshark mentioned that he had to close the pics when he was viewing em at work. Exactly why, I'm not sure.
As far as language...there really shouldn't be any problems unless people turn this site into a "flamefest"...which I don't think it ever will. (even without the aid of modding) as the majority here are mature enough to know better.
Anyway, I have much more important things on my mind right now, and I cannot think to cover everything that has been said in this thread at this time. So, I guess just use your best judgement and keep focus...
