I don't know what I said either. I don't even remember posting in this thread to be completely honest. I was surprised to see my own avatar up there. You were talking about Red Dwarf. You had the image quoted. Ohhhh, right.
My point still stands though, I wish they aired it over in the States.

Bringing up a dilemma to the staff: if the profanity filter is made for Google, how can a pic that was actually found browsing Google Images be a problem?
Food for thoughts I think.

Food for thoughts I think. I see where you're going with this, but you can also find porn through Google. So, should that be appropriate to post as well? :3

Porn however is an oversight.

The point was, just because it's found on Google does not mean it's appropriate to post. :< Was trying to be more light hearted about it. So much complaining about following a very simple rule is getting redundant.

Indeed, I agree, the rule is here to stay, but a zero-tolerance policy is ***.

Food for thoughts I think. Depends if your filter is set to Strict, Moderate, Mild, or Off.
I believe if it shows with Strict settings, then it's safe for here.
Otherwise, no.

Yeah either that or ffxiah wanted to keep its advertisers. You're probably right though.

For everyone, an awesome tatoo:

Can't decide if that's really cool, or really obscure.
EDIT: Waiting for some chick (derogatory as to the type of woman, not women in general) to have the mouth of the tunnel down near their privates (or derrière)

I honestly don't know what "bypassing the filters means" or any of the other nonsense that's spouted about. If there's a filter does that mean that we can use the full profane word? Does saying something like "well if I attempt to use an example, I will be topic-banned" bypass the filter? This site has gotten so Nazi-esque that it isn't even fun anymore. I'm a punker (but you'd never know by looking at me), and I think that Krizz should shave his mohawk, because being a Nazi suit is the antithesis of all that which "punk" represents. It's about unity and "screw authority". Dr. Graffin disapproves. When you put money above your beliefs, you have lost the game.

The profanity filter doesn't filter profanity in images, bypassing it means posting pics with profanity. The profanity filter only works on text.

This site has gotten so Nazi-esque that it isn't even fun anymore. Comparisons between a polite request to refrain from using profanity versus the violent murder and burning of six million people notwithstanding, it isn't Krizz's call to make. He enforces the rules that we dictate.
We tried a policy of asking people to restrain themselves willingly on the excessive use of profanity and it didn't work. Our sponsors dropped us, meaning the site would have vanished from existence if we did not implement some kind of policy. We think the policy is questionable: why are we dropped by Google for content that Google links to every day? But they don't have to explain themselves to us, because that's business and life isn't fair.
We now have a filter in place that scrubs profane text for those that aren't logged in, to avoid the issue of our sponsors' auto-crawlers detecting content that would shut us down. This is actually a service to our users -- we originally were going to apply a zero-profanity rule site-wide and call it a day.
But there is no such thing as a profanity filter for images, so we need to continue with a zero tolerance policy where the img tag is concerned.
Due to the new forum rules, the old thread is being nuked. It's over 900 pages long, and there are numerous offending posts in it. And by numerous, I mean probably at LEAST one per page. Not including quotes.
Take the time to read through the below forum rules if you already have not. Remember, intentionally bypassing the profanity filter is not allowed.
Forum.Rules said: We are implementing a global profanity filter for all users under 13, and for users not logged in. As we no longer ask for birthdays at registration, this means it will apply to all new users as well. (You can no longer verify your age, and the profanity filter option has not been added to account options yet.)
- Slurs based on race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or similar protected statuses are not permitted, even in jest, or even by members of the same group.
- All sexual content now falls under "American network television" rules. While this naturally involves a certain gray area, if you won't see it on standard television (not cable), don't post it. (If you're not sure, don't post it.)
- Overly hostile and repeat attacks against a given user which would normally fall under harassment policies in-game will no longer be allowed.
- Posting any personal real-life identifiable information or images about a particular user without their permission is not allowed, unless they have previously posted it here.
- Player Warnings are no longer permitted. (This includes posting it in an already existing thread.)
- Do not link to or advertise external sites for blatant 3rd party hacks and tools that would probably get you immediately banned from FFXI/XIV. Guildwork Client and Windower are ok.
- These policies apply to all sections of the site: forum, item and player comments, screenshots, avatars, etc. Images violating any of the above rules will be removed if discovered by an admin or mod.
I will lock the other thread for now to give users time to save their favorites. It will be trashed this afternoon or tomorrow.
Edit: Do not expect a moderator to take the time to edit your post to remove a single image bypassing the profanity filter. If that is done, it is as a courtesy, not a requirement. If you are derailing or attacking someone, you risk your post being deleted regardless of including a picture in it.
Those that bypass the profanity filter risk being topicbanned. There is a profanity list. If you can't take the time to read it, then don't post images.
