KB Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 This thread and subject is being discussed within Admin, we are looking at fixes but that is not something that can be rushed. If a new rule must be made, better to get it right the first time that to constantly amend the first draft. Ken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gran Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 I have to say......Neil has layed out the problem in which I totally agree with him. This is a watch forum. Watches should come first! Reading your reply Neil is not being clear at all Neil is no goodie goodie sensible guy with green stripes who becomes feeble in the presence of nudity ....in fact reading neils last post very carefully (admitedly after drinking a number of rounds of akevit) reveals that Neil has the oposite view..neil claims that those who oposed erotic signature etc have "....sexual inadequacies ...." reading this silly debate I now want to make the claim that its in fact the watches that are wildly erotic Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TTK Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Thanks Ken....for the update...! There are plenty of interesting subjects that can be avatar related ...from watches...to movies.....comic book heroes.....the web is full of rich content that members can use....if you feel that the only subject that you are interested in is nudity....and feel that it's the only thing that's worth having in your avatar or sig.....perhaps this isn't the place for you......you might feel better over at RWG 1.....!

Cucumber_Jones Posted November 11, 2006 Report Share Posted November 11, 2006 Hey Ken - is there an ignore user function here? If there was I could just block out thoes who do not respect the rest of the members and not miss the great contributions from those that show respect.

Everythingape Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 Damn it... I found an 'erotic film' with a guy wearing a Panerai.. I'd screenshot it and show you, but I wont.... Unless we have a topic called "Watches in Adult movies/TV" Maybe I can edit her ass out.. (or would that be disrespecting her?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robertk Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 I can't believe I just found this thread. I guess I just ignored it since it wasn't about watches. I agree with the sentiments about the porn avatars. It really bothers me that those people who put them up have such disregard and lack of respect for those who are part of this forum, and who seem to feel that their sexual issues should be of interest to everybody. If I want to see porn I know where to go. This is a Watch forum! No wonder women don't come to this forum. Totally sexist and immature. Say's volumes about the the poster.

Highflyingclive Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 Bang on. That's what some of us have been repeating for the past while. Some of you - ad nauseum. A very small proportion of the membership, thinking that if they make enough noise, will be able to spoil the fun for the majority. Perhaps I am immature... but I enjoy the humerous, creative and erotic avatars. The ones that offend me - and, yes, there are some - I ignore.

slay Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 This forum is about watches. Period. I have extensive knowledge of haute horology, as a well seasoned collector. I probably know more about brands like AP, Breguet, Blancpain, JLC, Patek Philippe, Vacheron Constantin, A. Lange and Sohne, and independents than people combined (except Randy for AP). Since you are so knowledgebale about all those watchbrands, I probably do not have to remind you, that its actually called Lange und Söhne and not Lange and Sohne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TTK Posted November 12, 2006 Report Share Posted November 12, 2006 (edited) You know Clive that's another reason I lost any respect for you..you just wann have fun....[censored] the consequences for anyone else........"if I'm not offended'.....nobody else should be.......that demonstrates very clearly to me.....your total attitude....I'm not against nudity.......I just don;t want to see it here.....! If it offends even one person...that's too many.....now if it was someone who took offense to our hobby.....such as someone coming on board and telling us 'what low life scum' we are for buying replicas.....you'd be the first on your soapbox...... ! Personally I think your'e just [censored] off...because you're about to see your jackoff material disappear from the board.....what will you do now of an eveing......!
