Objectionable links

**Gawain of Orkeny** · 09-17-2005, 19:16

I was informed that my links to audio outtakes from FMJ and the Goodfellas are against org rules. This would then mean that any site that has either written or audio quotes of these is also against org rules. It would also cover any site that has any movie or book with objectionable material or swearing in it. How can the Babe thread be ok but a link with a warning that you have to click on to view be not allowed? As Divinus Arma said

Links to links? What about links to links to links? That pretty much rules out the entire internet. Thus this forum should be closed down

And now by Revelation

[QUOTESurely you can't go soft over a link mr over-protective moderator? Perhaps you should go on a tree killing spree and vent some of that over exuberance
There is a foul word warning of sorts after all. Sad, very sad?[/QUOTE]

Isnt the disclaimer enough?

This site, if I may speak above my station for a moment, is for the enjoyment of the many, not the few. Therefore there are a set of rules, reasonable as I see them, that are set in place to keep a lid on content that the many would find objectionable or would lead to a slippery slope of over-indulgence in nasty content.

A low to zero tolerance of swearing is not unreasonable. After all, there are young'uns here.

The babe thread is an indulgence (and a damn fine one at that!) that seems to fit well with the Frontroom. Be it known that there are rules applicable for that thread as well and many pictures have been removed due to inappropriate content.

IMHO, if there is no way for a poster to satiate his posting proclivities without resorting to foul language, then perhaps a different forum might better suit him.

Did I resort to foul language ? Was it done to be provactive? There are quite few here Im sure whos parents would dissapvove of the babe thread over my links. You are being over protective here. Again if we were to not allow any site that had a curse word on it we would really be cutting down on whats allowed to be posted here.

So then as long as it indulges you its fine huh? We have had pictures of torture and death on these boards but a funny outake from a movie is objectionable. This is lunacy.

Pictures of torture, really?

Gawain,

It is fair to mention that you ignored my posts from 24 hours ago asking you to edit your links. You also ignored my PM from 16 hours ago asking you to edit your links. (I have a read-receipt.)

My notes were polite, gave ample reasons, and cited forum rules. You complety ignored everything and made no effort whatsoever to contact me and work the situation out.

I don't think it's fair of you to complain like this. You made zero effort to remedy the situation.

I didnt read your post. I did however read your pm I admit. Also exactly what you meant by edit was unclear and I was quite tird at the time. As soon as I logged on today BKS pmed me and I responed immeadatly. Whats objectionable to you or BKS is not to me so I left it to him to edit. I though you had this power as well.

Again I thought if you really had a problem you could just delete them. There is no working the situtation out as I doubt you would change your mind.

I don't think it's fair of you to complain like this. You made zero effort to remedy the situation.

I did I put it in the hands of BKS. Sorry I didnt jump fast enough for you.

Does Abu Gharib ring a bell for one. How about the video of Marines shooting a man?
