PRETTY GIRLS THREAD IS LOCKED?! - NO MORE

Well it seems that the fun was very short lived 'cause the thread is locked after only 3 pages. What am I going to tell all my girls now who all want to get on? [:D]
Seriously is it bandwith, server space or just good old censorship?[:(]

RE: PRETTY GIRLS THREAD IS LOCKED?!

Some of the stuff crossed the line into porn. I posted a note on it asking people to keep it tasteful, but the guy who posted most of the porn stuff didn't come back and take it out. Perhaps we can try again after we here from the mod.

Mercedes Shop's demise due to poor moderation had a plus side - the pretty girls thread was totally out of hand. We need to actually act like we have some standards here.

My kind of place. Prefers violence over sex!
To test this theory I'm gonna start a "Fully clothed girls with their heads cut off" thread.

Yes, although I have zero problem with it I can understand if the editors don’t want to go there.

RE: PRETTY GIRLS THREAD IS LOCKED?!

So why lock the thread, why not just remove the offending picture? Isn't that the mod's job? Maybe setting some ground rules would have sufficed, no full frontal nudity perhaps?
Informing the offending party of the transgression
would have been a more elegant sollution in my opinion.

Guys I hate censorship more than anyone, but to put is simply,..... some people went too far.

if you're modding get rid of the ones that are offensive to you guys so we can see what you think is below the belt. you may want to give a bit more precise definition/rule attached there too...
