Prohibit the posting of images of graphic violence.


I am going to assume this is a suggestion for what you would like to happen and so moved it here.

Just because you can't stomach it doesn't mean others can't. 95% of the threads, hell probably more have been labeled. If you can't read, you shouldn't be on the forums regardless.

it's just another form of porn, probably worse. and we all know porn isn't allowed here. not sure why stuff like this is.

what is happening in Egypt falls under news. if you're gonna post a picture of some dude in the middle of blowing his head off with a shotgun.. i'd agree.. ban that.

but... the violence occurring in Egypt falls under news. like it or not... it needs to be known. Same reason the news programs showed the killing fields in Vietnam. There's a responsibility to show the truth.

yes, that's excellent logic you have there. when exactly did they replace your brain with a rock?

The same time they gave you one.

IE, never.

But, good try there. This is the internet. Go be super sensitive on the Hello Kitty forums or something. If something says "WARNING: GRAPHIC VIOLENCE", and you look at it expecting bunnies eating marshmallows, you're fucking stupid.

then don't make stupid assumptions. people who enjoy watching graphic violence get a sort of excitement from it, the same as people who watch graphic porn. it's not rocket science, even a p&n zombie should be able to follow along.

if i put a tag that says "TWO PEOPLE FUCKING" and then link hardcore porn in my thread, is that okay? i mean, just don't look at it. pretty sure i'd get banned. adding a disclaimer doesn't always make it okay.

Eh, you're being kind of a puss. Dont click on threads that advertise violence.

Lol, so because I am curious to see some guys fighting, and possibly see somebody come to justice or something of the sort, I get "excitement" from it, which then alludes to being porn, which then means I get aroused from it?

Lolol

Pretty sure the rules say no porn, so I would guess that would be a no, now wouldn't it...Oh, also, profanity in thread titles is not allowed, so you couldn't put that either.

As nick said, stop being such a puss. If it says it, don't click it. Ding ding ding. Lightbulb. Brain switch on. Etc. etc...

i don't even go into p&n, that place will rot your brain. however, to sit here and say there isn't a connection between people who enjoy watching graphic violence and the same sort of excitement people get from porn is just ignorant. there's been studies man. sick sick people.

Embedding graphic violence seems questionable, but a direct link with disclaimer should be perfectly acceptable.

What thread/image is this complaint about?

According to several posts here they may have been specifically talking about the violence in Egypt thread in P&N.
Of course, this could just be a general complaint that was spurred on by recent threads.

I support links with NSFW tags. People who are smart enough to sigh up for a forum should be able to figure that out.

What is the problem ? If you can't handle it you should not be on the internet to begin with. You can see far worst things just walking around outside everyday. Are you going to have outside censored too ? I love to see how you would do that.
