Slut in the screenshots... -Sigh-

Saturday, May 24, 2003 by EventHorizon | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I hate to do this, but....

I have noticed lately, that there have been a lot of unsavory additions to the screenshots library. I emailed Jafo about this and he deleted a number of them, but of course, they still keep comin' in. B1uesummers in particular with some others coming SS Goku etc. I am wondering if maybe screenshots arent obliged to go through moderation...That could be a prob.

To see what im talkin about go to... https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=13&SkinID=1973 Ok fine, thats just one, but ive been watchin the screenshots for a while and I dont like what I see...One IS worth removing so that we dont have little kids paying visits to the screenshots and saying, "Mommy, mommy, look at that!..."

Now some of you may not agree with me...(People's moral standards being different and all)...but I dont think its right for a "family site" to be displaying this kind of crap. Basically what Im asking is, could someone please remove the ones you see fit and to make sure these people dont do it again.

Because you seem WAY too concerned about someone's anime background than you should be.

Its not about defending WC, its about defending authors who'd like to post what they see fit, and obviously, the admins see it as fit.

You on the other hand act as though its a huge offense to every god loving citizen who comes to this board.

Now answer my question.

But,
Its NOT.

Black and white and a whole bunch of other colors for you to see.

And saying you don't think its *right* dosen't answer the question, you need a little more background than that to hold up your argument.

I don't see the harm in the pic.
So someone's 5 year old kids sees it. What harm has it done?
The kind isn't likely to grow and be a rapist, and if he/she did, it wouldn't be because of one screenshot.(more likely childhood trauma or bad parenting)
I doubt the screenshot will give the child a drug dependancy in later years.
I don't think it will cause the childs eyes to burst into flames and melt.

Really, where's the harm in that screenshot?

Maybe you missed the whole thing that kids are shooting each other in elementary schools these days and its so plastered all over the news and talked about in the classrooms (my 13 year old nephew mentioned it last i saw him) that the reality of someone's desktop image is NOTHING!

Or howabout that 13 year olds are having sex and getting pregnant?

Or that these same kids can probably get better drugs than were available in the 70's right down their school halls?

Why don't you dump your energy on those topics? They might be better suited there, rather than worrying about a desktop image on a website.

Because those topics have nothing to do with wincusto.

To hippy...

You could say the same thing about hard-core porn movies... A 5yr old wouldnt understand what it going on if he/she saw it...so what is wrong with it?

They have to do with KIDS which was your whole point in the first place.

And they're FAR more important topics.

So let me get this straight, you just want to censor WC to make your little world of innocence that much better?

I saw a screenshot in here of a desktop with a Midnight Club 2 wallpaper.
that's a computer game, nothing to do with Wincusto either.
Should we ban that?

But that's besides the point. First the screenshot was asked to be removed because of it's 'offensive' content, but now it's becuase it's nothing to do with Wincusto.
Maybe the bus left already and I wasn't on it.

No, Im saying that arguing about the kids at columbine high is irrevelant because it has nothing to do with wincusto.

So we should remove that too?

Btw, why would a 5-year old be watching hardcore porn?

personally I don't see what the problem is. Britney spears shows off just as much flesh at any of her shows but they don't ban her. I have no problem with the screenshot. what's the big deal?
