I don't know, but when i look at people's Signatures/Avatars, I don't know how Kid-Friendly this site is.
Some of the stuff I don't even want to see....
Just want you guys to think of what kind of audience you want to draw.
If this has been discussed, and i missed it, i apologize.

Um like what? personally for me all i have in my sig is "fag" but then again my 8 year old brother says fag all the time, only thing i can think over is mega's avy <_<

As stuff goes, i would judge your sig to be borderline.
It's not the cleanest, but i'd certainly say it's acceptable.
Not something that would scare off would-be-members.
I'm talking about other things, that are either/or inappropriate/immature.
I'd say yours is more in the plainly 'comical' catagory.

yay ^_^

So whose is bad?

Give some examples.

Well now that I look at your sig, i'd say some convos for random people, they usually have some not-to-friendly things

:angry: *walks into compliant building*
yeah i'd like to file a complaint
there is anover use of the word pie :hopping: :ph43r:

Be fucking serious or shut up. There's no need to bring up that random crap here.

I'd hate to look through people's sigs to find bad things and name them.
These people know who they are.
So, is there any agreement with what i'm saying?

Please do so, because I haven't noticed anything in people's sigs.

Ugh...i hate to do this...
Here's one that i just saw a second ago.

Some people on now...

the last isn't inappropriate, but immature.
All of these, (exepting the first) from people signed on now.
Do i need to post more?

i do agree that people are kinda pushing it

Is Hiei's animated? All I see is some Dookie eater picking his nose.

Valter's is going too far, as is Puff's. Reyde's isn't that bad. His is true.

w/e.
my point is made.
I'm asking in the best interest of the site that you guys be a bit stricter on that.

I'd say Reyde's is actually worse then Valter's, Valter's just seems plain stupid, although schould been dealt with aswell

:blink: Is it really that bad? I'll get rid of it if you want.

oh boy... even more inappropriate... for kids

I don't see what the big deal is. When IF upgrades, FEW will have COPPA forced on them anyway, children won't be able to view it. And how many younger children really get on forums. The youngest I've seen is a 11, and the youngest I've heard of is 10. Honestly, I watched my first porno at 10 so I don't see the big deal. :P

>.< b00n, and check Al-X, he's just asking for it now...

yes i agree! *kills AL-X's sig and avy*

Compared to the maturity level of the people ON the forums, I'd have to say that the level is borderline, but not overboard.

Hiei has a very controversial set right now, but Aien isn't going to complain there. He likes it. <3

I agree. <3



His sig and avatar don't show anything they can't. They're allowed. They don't break the rules of this board (to my understanding) and does not IF's ToS.

=( ... Jealous.

On the same lines as this topic, I've been seeing a lot of dirty crap on RI. I'm not sure on how to judge when the lines been crossed on dirty things in RI though. Is it semi-acceptable (EX: "And I bet she has a penis longer than mine!") or is it stricter?

I like his siggy and avy. Anyway, if some 8 year olds soccer mom saw that... Bad news..... *makes slicing move against throat*

An 8 year old shouldn't be going on forums. Hell I shouldn't.

Other forums seem to agree with me. *waits for FEF hate posts*

Al-X's sig is awesome. XD

But seriously, you guys need to consider the TOS.

What about mine? My friend gave it to me...AL-X seems to hate it...anyway, AL-X is pushing it.

FEW dosn't need to be strict. If you want a strict enviorment, leave.

FEW is a leinent community. Go to FEF, FESS, ECW, ETC. if you want a hardass administration.

FEF is a hardass administration? And ECW? ._.



I'm sorry to go off topic, but it's sad how you just randomly flame two communities that are just as strict as you. :(

They were, at a point in time, WAY more strict than FEW.

It's been over 3 months since my last pop-in at ECW, and over 7 months since I visited FEF. >_>

The last time I checked, we were looser in most regards than either of those communities.

We lost Jaffar and Eaichu. Superbus was banned. XD


What were you saying? :P :P

They musta been n00by ATM.

Hell, anyone can be banned anywhere, it's the person's decision.

AS a WHOLE, FEW is less strict >_>

FEF I won't go into >_>

I agree with you, FF. I look at some of the stuff that's posted here, and I actually feel rather uncomfortable. Call me immature, stupid, whatever you want, but I really don't think it's appropriate.

This topic is gay.

If it doesn't break the ToS, or rules, suck it up or leave to be blunt.

Yeah, I'm going with Fifth Fang on this, too; some of these are definitely inappropriate. The text ones that go overboard are one thing; that I can deal with... but the pictures/movies of entirely naked people... doesn't go well with me at all. It's a lot harder to ignore a large picture than a small text sample.

And maybe some of us have seen porn movies since they were 10. I find it rather foolish if we think that that's the normal standard and use it to excuse this stuff.

EDIT: I'm not entirely sure what the ToS is, but if it's the Terms of Use for InvisionFree labled at the bottom, may I quote:

Looking at the first bold point, "obscene" does have to be defined by the users, so that's a sketchy argument. But the second area I've put in bold explicitly bans what AL-X has in his sig and avi. One may debate porn and nudity, since one of them is only half-naked and not really showing explicitly specific parts, but the phrase "sexual material of any kind" covers it right there.

Sometimes, I really don't care. Ever hear:

"Sometimes, you have to break the rules in order to have fun"

Nope, can't say i have >.<

forget it.
you guys are totally corrupt.
This is totally unbelievable.

And there goes another totally reasonable complaint

It's technically debatable if it's sexual in any way.

A girl showering, a girl from a movie scene, and a girl jogging. :P

Seriously, they won't shut down a board for shit like this. It's along the lines with cussing; there's a maturity level where you can overlook this sort of stuff if it bothers you. I know Marcus on FEF has yaoi in his sig. Do I like looking at it? Hell no. I'm not going to bitch at him about it though, because I just overlook it.
