There is a pornographic picture on your site
« on: June 24, 2005, 03:28:37 AM »
In this thread:
http://www.ballreviews.com/Forum/Replies.asp?TopicID=89798&ForumID=80&CategoryID=5

Someone has pasted in a pornographic ASCII art picture.

If you had any real moderation on this site, this thread would be immediately deleted & the user banned.

I Hope you take action quickly.

I think someone got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.  I think it is a huge leap from naked lady ascii to porn.  While not my cup of tea, it certainly isn't worth gathering the Amish and Anita Bryant and staging a protest.

It's real simple, if it bothers you that much, use the little "contact us" link on the left side of the page.  Instead of complaining about the lack of moderation, do something to help.  I've emailed them several times and always gotten a fairly quick and acceptable response.

It's sad none of you realized that people on this site look at it from WORK.  What the hell do you think his boss would say if he glanced over and saw that?  Probably wouldn't go over well.  And the typical "just use ignore" line doesn't work, since it's not like he knows when a post will be unsafe to look at.

You can tell him what to do, that he should help instead of complain, blah blah blah, but on the other hand is it REALLY that hard to put "WW", "NWS" or "NSFW" in the title?

Considering I'm viewing this site from work, I understand that.  However, no where in this post did he mention adding a WW, he simply complained.  We are trying to offer him suggestions that might get him faster results.

Thank you Andy.

That's all I'm getting at. There has been a proliferation of things such as this on this site as of late & drastic measures need to be taken now.

It may not seem like a big deal to you all, but clicking on that link very well can get someone fired.

Whether it's an almost naked woman on a treadmill, or naked ascii art, there is no place for it here without very specific & bold warning.

Every other forum that I belong to considers posing something like that without NWS tags to be a bannable offense.

I don't know of too many peoples jobs that allow them to browse the internet while at work anyway. I mean could'nt you be easily fired if your boss walked in and you're looking at a bowling site instead of doing the job you're getting paid to do? I personally did'nt see a need for a WW, but thats just me. It's not like a real photo.

Legend, you might want to make a poll in the misc. forum asking "who posts from work".  A lot of the posters here are adults, so how do you think they post before 5 or 6 PM?
